Family Time in Toronto

.

Grandma, mom, Amy & Aunt Esther enjoy the celebration.

Over Memorial Day weekend I visited Toronto for the Bat Mitzvah of my cousin, Jenni. We had a fabulous time and lots of great eats.

Cool centerpieces.

My placemat - a real record!

Cousin Alex singing with her dad, David, in the band. They provided some great musical entertainment.

Julia and Amy - northern and southern cousins!

Desserts galore.

And some fruit, too.

Sunday brunch = omelet makers at our cousins' house!

Sunday afternoon we stopped in at Go For Tea for a snack.



Pineapple/celery/lemon juice, lychee bubble tea and mango bubble tea.



Inside of the restaurant.



We also shared an order of condensed milk toast - sweet and tasty.

After a good nap we headed out to meet several of our relatives for dinner at Asian Legend Chinese restaurant. The place was packed and seating was a bit difficult but we managed to have a wonderful time and enjoy each other's company in spite of the challenges. I loved the wonton soup, the shrimp dumplings and the eggplant!

The next morning I found a delicious Chinese bakery near the hotel where I purchased some goodies for breakfast. Luckily, they accepted my US dollars!
