Good Read from HRH

It was breezy night @Chedi. Although it was rather dark outside the restaurant, yet with clear sky and beautiful moonlight plus the bright lanterns shining over us, the spot which we had our dinner was perfect. What more when we were honoured to be invited by HRH to have a private dinner overlooking the Indian Ocean. Not everyday that we could meet HRH. Perhaps, if we are lucky and with Allah SWT will and grace, it may be once in our life time. 

But fortunately for us, this was our second time being invited to a dinner with HRH.  The first was in one of the famous restaurants in London. There, while eating my foodies I was admiring the glass bottles of the artesian water from Norway. The Grand Chamberlain saw my interest and he quickly requested the waiter who was serving us to place three bottles in an exclusive bag for me to take home. I was surprised yet delightful for the rare gifts! And, till today I still have the SSOA bottles!  

Here, @Chedi we had seafood cuisines. We started with fish soup courtesy from the Chef. Then I had hearty salads as entree, followed by sumptuous grilled lobsters with lemon sauce and ended with lip smacking dessert of vanilla ice cream topped with strawberries and trays of chocolates. Wow! My belly was exceptionally full. We not only had a wonderful dinner with HRH, but most of all we had great time hearing and learning new things from HRH about his interests and also the history of his State. I was amazed with HRH vast knowledge of all the subjects and also the time HRH took to share it with us. 

But time past very quickly without we realizing it. It was closed to midnight and we soon bid goodbye to HRH with wishes of safe journey to The Grand Canyon. And on the way home, I opened the package which HRH handed to us. It was a gift which we will always value - a rare book personally signed by HRH!
