We have grown old and mature. Monica has always been lovely and kind, as far as I have been able to recall. She brought me mooncake moulds as requested.
We decided to have our meal in Leicester Square. The dinner was OK. After the meal, I decided to leave Monica and her husband, Hong, to discover Chinatown on their own.
I went to Loon Fung to look for lye water and found one brand, Tung Chun, 500ml. I decided to go to See Woo to see if I could get any cheaper. The shop had the same brand of lye water but smaller in volume, 225ml, which was adequate for my 1st attempt on mooncake making. I paid £2.25 for the bottle but didn't get a tub of maltose as it was priced at £1.60 for 500g at See Woo but £.149 at Loon Fung where I bought from.
My plan to make moon cakes is going smoothly as planned. Thanks to PRINCE2!!! :-)
