First time I have ever eaten out at a restaurant on Christmas Day - That I can remember anyway.

We usually have quite a gathering for Christmas Dinner but decided on a quieter one this year. A new restaurant had opened just around the corner so we decided to try it. 

Well the decor was beatiful, complete with an English phone box and a huge collection of car number plates from around the world and any drink one could want - just a beer for me will do, thanks.

Waitress spoke English and the menu was in English and Chinese and included T-bone and Rib, no roast lamb but plenty of selction and good service.

Had barely had a look around and was approached by a lady from a neighbouring table who I happened to know as a mother whose daughter had been a student of mine. She wanted me to help with here English lessons so Mei, the boss talked detail and money and so a bit more income.

Enjoyed our meal and asked for the bill but was told it had already been paid by the ladies husband which was very thoughtful of him.

It was appreciated greatly and thanked them all very much, a lovely evening out.

Left the restaurant and braved the chilly outdoors, had dropped to -26c but it was only a short walk home and into our very warm hacienda.
