Merdeka Eve Celebration

Merdeka eve I went out with a few friends.....
We went to Sunway Pyramid for dinner and we planned to watched fireworks on that nite...after dinner we walk about and decided to go to Halo Cafe in Sunway Pyramid....I heard my friend said this Halo Cafe used to be in SS 15 Subang Jaya and shifted to Sunway Pyramid.......
Usually Halo Cafe do not have cover charged and that night they have cover charge for each person is RM 25.00 and there was a special price for 4 pax for RM 85.00 and came with a bucket of tiger beer...each bucket is 5 bottles. They are four of us so we took the special price package...
They were given out some lucky draw presents....before they start the lucky draw they asked who wants present?? I raised up my hand....and they just gave me a RM 50 Halo cafe voucher...
=)
I used the voucher to buy additional drinks...When I place my order, I told the waitress I'm using the voucher to pay for it. Then later another waitress came to me and said cannot use the voucher on that night because that night is a promotional item?! I told her merdeka eve is an event not an item!!! In the voucher says that "Not valid on Promotional Item" so the drink that we ordered is an item and I'm ordered it from the ala carte menu so is not a promotional item!!! At the end, we used the voucher for the additional drinks.
We were there till almost 12a.m. then we left the place for fireworks....saw alot of cars stop at the road to wait for the fireworks....the fireworks took about 5 to 10 minutes....it is amazing....it reminds me of Moomba Festival in Melbourna Yarra River fireworks...
By the time I reached home is almost 2a.m.
