When there's nothing else to do on a Friday night...

All Ado About Food!!!

2008-09-24T16:43:00.001+08:00

This entry is a collection of pictures of all the calories I’ve been consuming in the past months…No regrets though! There’s lotsa joy in sharing a meal with friends who enjoy the same thing and judging from the lovely presentation of some of the dishes, I would say Food is Art. At least it’s art that I know how to appreciate.

Basil Alcove@Fortune Centre. Supposedly fine Italian casual dining at poorman’s prices. I said SUPPOSEDLY.
Chilled pork knuckle bits in jelly with sauerkraut

What it really tastes like, is jellied ham.

Roast lamb on mashed potato & asparagus with mango chunks on the side

Yea, we ate this pretty little dish sitting on plastic chairs long the sidewalk while people walking by staring…

Miss Clarity Café, Tanjong Katong branch
One of the pinkiest café in the country serving tasty western fare at very reasonable prices. Magazines, sofas, & even board games are available. Good place for group outings.

Roast chicken leg.

Seafood Vol-au-vent for $9.80 and really tasty!
I will return to this café coz the price is very affordable. Main courses below $10 are hard to find. Service is commendable as well.

Onto green green things…
This is macha ice cake from Pasta De Waraku

Pretty to look at and pretty delish.

Royal Copenhagen Tea Lounge @ Takashimaya
Green tea pound cake!

Fragrant but not sickening, moist enough to retain all the powdery green tea flavour.

Both of us doing our best “approving mother in law” look…

Since on a Jap theme…
En Japanese Dining Bar @ Mohd Sultan, specializes in Okinawa cuisine

Wagyu beef cubes

Very good proportion of fat & meat.

Scallops & pan-seared foie gras with roe

Tiger prawns with tamago & cheese

Prawn rolled with bacon & leek

This is my fav – Fried noodles with rice & octopus takos. Can u see the bits of rice amidst the strands? It sweet & tasty, not weird at all!

What is this dessert served in a martini glass?

Soya bean crème bruleè!

High on taste, low on calories, I like this stuff!
En Jap good! Every dish was made with quality fresh ingredients and served piping hot.

The Outback @ Millenia Walk

Hugeass onion rings…and that’s all I could remember of the place.

Mimolette@Fairways drive
This restaurant is all about the ambience ambience ambience.

Very dark because must ambience mah!

My Korobuta pork

And so we sip Rosè wine and muse over food that is big on price, low on quantity but blah on taste. After the very unnecessary atas experience we scoot off to….

The Vista Bistro@Playground@Big Splash
And this is what I call FOOD…

Baked potato skins with mushroom & bacon

Cheese springrolls

As you can see we weren’t even keen on staying at Mimolette for drinks or dessert. Good thing too, coz The Vista Bistro was much more comfortable! Leave the atas things to atas people on an atas day!

The 2 August birthday babies

First we make a wish,

And then we blow out the candles,

Then we all eat cake!!!

Enough of food already??? Not yet! Let me share 1 more!

Majestic@New Majestic Hotel
This refurbished Hotel in Chinatown territory now prides itself as a boutique hotel with a star Chinese restaurant to boot. So the foodies go check it out.

Starter - Wasabi prawn, foie gras & peking duck on mixed salad. It’s soo good I went giddy eating it.

You finish taking photo already or not??? Can I eat now?! A hungry woman is an angry woman, especially this one.

Crabmeat fishmaw soup.

Appeased by the starter, her mood improves.

She can even take photo for me…

My beancurd broth with shimeji mushrooms & whole scallop

That’s the whole scallop right there! Lightly fried before dunking into soup.

Panfried ribeye steak

Response?

Roast baby lamb with carrot cake

Response?

Dessert – avocado with vanilla bean ice cream in whole coconut.

Scraping off the succulent coconut flesh with smooth avocado milk shake, it is simply the best.

What a lot of food memories…9 places in 1 blog entry!

Hmmm...what's for dinner?

A long walk

2008-09-16T11:01:00.001+08:00

An outing to the Southern Ridges, the 9km walking trail from Mount Faber Park all the way to HortPark. Of course we didn’t try to complete the whole stretch on our first attempt, but decided that starting from Henderson Waves, the nicest bridge at the point covering almost 2 thirds the distance, will be good enough.

Henderson Wave, I vote this the prettiest bridge. God-blessed weather and crowd on a Saturday late afternoon.

We never walk without our dogs.

Chasey was such a dear today…

Views

Forest Walk, a 1.3km meandering metallic elevated walkway that connects to Alexandra Arch. Very zigzag, and sloping downwards all the way. Imagine walking 1.3km up the slope again…

Dint I mention the entire walkway was E.L.A.V.A.T.E.D…

After what seems like a dizzying stretch,

Chasey wonders which one is rest stop.

Ok lah, let you rest 10 seconds…

And smell Lucky’s bits…

Alexandra Arch

A really short one, the distance of an overhead bridge. Nothing fantastic about it since I pass by it everyday to work. That explains the ‘joyful’ face when I spotted my office building in the distance.

HortPark

HortPark, the Gardening Hub, however was a little more interesting. Spanning 23hectares, this park is a horticulturalist’s dream.

Consisting of numerous mini garden exhibits & playgrounds, this park displays the endless creativity of what anybody’s garden can look like, with a little help from the landscape designers credited at every exhibit.

Really tempting to jump in after all the hot & sweaty walking…

Chasey starts paddling her paws, can u see her movements? She is soooooo cute…

The BF starts to practice his macro & manual focus…

This statue happened to be a very well-endowed half-naked one. Picture the bf standing in front of it snapping away, looking like a perv and in the end he didn’t even take the full statue?!

Plants I’ve never seen before…

Manual focus, finally passed!

A Thai restaurant called ‘KHA’ is located within HortPark.

It has nice outdoor water facing chill-out area

Manual focus again…

Pity after walking such a long distance to get here we were quite tired to cover the whole park. Less photos for you, tat’s all! Go there yourself!

See, Lucky’s tyre punctured already!

We’re taking a taxi back to the car now, no way I’m gonna backtrack 5km! Tata!

Let's go KL!

2008-08-28T11:00:00.001+08:00

KL shopping spree photolog from 2 months ago …I remember KL being all about the city life and great food…I’ve not been there for many years and nothing has changed about that, except it’s definitely updated itself with the times now.

Our ride:

Tried the double decker bus with inflight services like service attendants and meals provided. Not bad, felt like I was taking a budget airplane.

Fahler cheok has space to wiggle about in his seat.

Leg room was ok.

It takes about 5hrs to reach Corus Hotel’s doorstep from Harbourfront Singapore Cruise Centre, the pickup location.

For convenience sake we stayed at Corus Hotel as the bus dropoff and pickup points were there. The hotel is situated in Jalan Ampang beside KLCC, not near the popular shopping Bukit Bintang area.

It was pretty decent, I had requested for a poolside room. But of coz noone used the pool.

Our balcony, a few steps away from the pool.

Fahler & mahler cheok’s room…

The girls’ room…

4 poster bed very romantic…

My 2 very ‘shy’ roomies…

On to serious matters, we go shopping!

The streets of KL

Pavilion is the newest shopping mall, which I felt was too upmarket for my taste.

Other older shopping centres, mid range and just as good…

Am always amazed at shopping centres with ice skating rink. The need for mankind to make everything bigger and better?

Sunway pyramid. U can see the sphinx in the distance as our cab drove away…

1 twin of the Petronas twin tower.

Now I regret not making enough effort to take better pictures…

KLCC, close to our hotel. Architecturally beautiful.

Water landscaping for the pleasure of diners…

The spoils!!!

Lu’s loot and mine.

Not as impressive as the mountain of clothes I got from Bangkok, coz things in KL are more expensive. Must think very hard before buying.

And now, the FOOD…
We fell in love with the street food at the risk of our stomachs. But this simple hawker fare of items on sticks being dipped into boiling stock and then chili sauce enthralled our tastebuds so much!
Step 1: Pick what you want.

Step 2: Dunk into boiling pot to heat it up (mainly to kill germs)

Step 3: Dip into all kinds of dodgy looking chili sauces

Step 4: Eat!

My fav, quail eggs for RM1. In fact, every stick costs RM1 only!

A more touristy place akin to our Newton circus would be Jalan Alor, parallel to the Bukit Bintang shopping stretch.

Long row of stalls selling bbg seafood, chicken wings, satay, noodles and drinks. Local fare.

Here’s what we had.

Weird that the carrot cake in KL has bean sprouts.

Stingray, came without sambal chili. No sambal, no joy to eat.

The iced tea was good though…

Fahler cheok enjoying his coconut…

Baskin Robbins, best ice cream ever. When will it make a comeback to S’pore???

How much did this fondue cost? RM29.90. Compare that to SGD45.90 in Haagen Daz S’pore. Pirates!

Hee…can u blame us???

It wasn’t me! I didn’t finish that all by myself!

Check out the wide menu!

Sugar high…and see all the fats going into my arms already…shucks…

2nd holiday with my friends…always fun to be around with!

I am thinking

2008-08-08T15:59:00.002+08:00

Have you ever, at the end of a workday, stepped into a train, blank out, and then suddenly wonder where you are headed to? Perhaps it happens to some of us once in a blue moon due to fatigue or distractions, I suppose that's fine. As for me, having many such journeys along the east west line, I certainly had such moments, and recently increasing. This left me thinking - Is it short term memory loss, or actually reflective of my current state of life? Embarking on a destination, entering a dark period when things don't turn out as expected, and then start to wonder where it's all heading? The more I dwelled on this, the more I concluded it’s the latter.

At work, I started well, handling & learning many things on a wide job scope. Somewhere along the line, we shifted to a horrid location, had newcomers, reassignment of duties and I'm given let’s just say, a job scope that could be more desirable. Certainly, the learning curve has hit a plateau with increasing clerical functions. For example, while staying late to count tables, chairs and cabinets is tolerable, the last incident of being ordered to buy dustbins for new joiners definitely crossed my threshold. Just when I thought I had been through enough humbling experiences, this one takes the cake. Me measuring my dustbin for comparison of size (and don’t forget colour!) so that I wont buy the wrong dustbin. At that point the urge to apologize to my fahler for sponsoring my costly university education was undeniably strong, and the serious questioning of where I am headed in this role.

In personal aspects, I've got my house and should be happily planning for my future, but to date, nothing has been done. Peers & colleagues my age who already have it all constantly ask when my wedding will be held but they don't realize how awkward it is for me to answer because it’s not within my decision making means. Blame it on the Singaporean culture of securing a house before talking about marriage but it’s too late for regrets too. I'm neither young nor old, single, child-less, car-less and worse, no wedding to plan. My salary barely lasts me through the month. Stuck, that's where I am, in the eyes of some, the worse place to be. Sometimes I feel my insides bleed.

Socially, weekday nights and weekends used to be packed with activities. These days, if I don’t ask anyone out, no one asks me out. I go home everyday, have some dinner, lights out by 11pm. Weekends, after bathing the dog, there isn’t much to do while waiting for the bf to wakeup and pacify his never-ending commitments. It seems I've simply lost the energy to organize activities. Laziness maybe, unmotivated definitely. I wonder what’s going on...

With this blog, I started with high hopes and zest for blogging about anything and everything. I hoped to be successful with readership and fame. I aimed for 2 entries per week. Along the way, I realized that the things people liked reading about entailed bitchiness, flaming and lots of negative tones which I’m not inclined to use anymore. And I have to admit I’ve become increasingly private, hence entries have to be much censored before posting for the WWWorld to see. This is why I don’t blog as frequently as when I first started out and being a blogger trying to be private is quite contradiction to live with. And even as a low profile blogger, I’ve endured comments like “you are so free hor, blog about everything” to “you are so lazy, seldom blog anymore”. Go easy folks, I’m just a fragile little girl…
So what’s next? It’s a challenge I’ll take.

With church, I started by leaving my 5yr long 'home' last year to seek higher spiritual pastures. It's been almost a year and I'm still adjusting to my new place, totally missing the old one, something I never expected would happen. Things at the new place are good, but stirring up conflicts within me such that I’m not yet able to go with the flow very smoothly. Yet again I don't know where I'm headed, but I'll have to wait upon Him and see where His wind blows me next.
I still count my blessings. I know this is all temporary, but how did things up end this way? Why do planned journeys sometimes go sorely wrong? Perhaps it's a wake up call to make things right, or it could be a form of endurance training for better things to come. I wonder if there are others out there going through the same as me? A verse of comfort for us all: “In times of good be joyful, but in times of adversity consider this: God has made one as well as the other, so that no one can discover what the future holds.” Ecclesiates 7:14. He works all things for good, so we just continue walking on! Works for me now.
Well, I will have something to meditate about during my half month's compulsory work break starting next week!!! (The only perk of working in a highly regulated industry). Hope to come out of this rejuvenated and motivated, and have some of my sorrows resolved.

Wild Wild Wet

2008-08-04T22:43:00.001+08:00

An outing a long ago to blog.

One Sunday evening 2 young kids with free tickets to Wild Wild Wet decided to have some water fun at Downtown East.

This water theme park is an adventure of rides and structures for kids.

Watch the big bucket at the top.

When water fills up, it tips over and everyone get a big shower.

I feel thoroughly cleansed.

The big boychild has fun too..

How graciously he slides down…RFLOL

This is the Tsunami ride, however the waves only come every 3hrs or so and only lasts for 30 seconds. At least that’s how long we felt it was, sitting in the floating rings waiting for a wave to hit.

Interesting Singaporean names for rides, basically slide rides ending with humans popping out from a hole.

This is called the Shiok River. A lazy river with too many people. Just sit in a float, let the generated currents push you along and get a slight headache at the end of it.

The river is a rather long ride covering most of the land area for the theme park.

People from outside the shiok river may shoot water at you. Not that you were dry in the 1st place..

Seems quite Shiok for the large kid in orange.

Highlight of the park and the most thrilling ride of all

Freefall for two down that slope…

It’s the heart-leap-out-of-your-mouth-experience, especially for the one facing downwards. The one on the opposite merely stays in the leaning back position, less terrifying. Poor me who chose to be the former position for our 1st try.

For the romantics or the borings, whichever way you choose to view it, take a slow bicycle ride along the elevated track to enjoy the view.

Sidenote: I can’t help noticing there are so many tummies flopping everywhere. Men, please buckup!!!

No better way to end water sports but with a quiet evening BBQ.

Portion just for two.

The lady cooks while the man does what he does best.

Haha…pictures can be deceiving. Cos it was the poor guy who dirtied his hands setting the fire and cooking the food all the way while I pose for picture.

Nice to have a free chalet for the evening with leftover meat, but I still prefer restaurant dining, least I don’t get a 2week long sore throat/cough followed by pulling a rib muscle from coughing too vigorously.

BKK Again & Again & Again

2008-07-16T23:39:00.002+08:00

As promised, here’s the part about our lodging. I booked 2 hotels just in case the 1st one didn’t go well. Thank God I did that. The first hotel we stayed was Baiyoke Boutique Hotel, behind the more famous mothership Baiyoke Sky, part of the Baiyoke chain of hotels in the Pratunam area. Thinking that a boutique standard is Singapore’s Scarlet Hotel equivalent, I booked it without realising I was so wrong.

Photos of the lobby turned out ok,

But it doesn’t matter how nice the lobby is, right? The room is more important.

Far from the boutique standard I expected, the room smelt like last night’s seafood dinner with damp carpeting we didn’t dare to set foot on.

But nothing beat the view we had

Railway track means 2-hourly train passings, complete with authentic “choo-choo” sounds. Thank goodness we were too tired most of the night to be waken by it.

Nice yah? We swear from our morning ‘wakeup’ calls there’s a rooster living there somewhere.

Happy to check out of Baiyoke and into the 2nd hotel at LeBua, State Tower, Silom.

Welcome welcome…ooh nice…

Now we realised how we’ve suffered in Baiyoke Boutique…

LeBua, you had me at Chandelier.

6-star hotel does things differently. When we checked in with the reception, we were brought to our room immediately with the receptionist who ‘checked-in’ with us in the room, showing us everything and how to use the facilities.

Correction, I should not say “room” because what we were upgraded to a 2 bedroom suite due to full occupancy that day.

Well, I suppose we just had to make do. :P

Kitchen, complete with washing machine.

A surprise for the unsuspecting couple who accidentally selected the option “honeymooning” on the website while booking the hotel. Oh well, free cake is good cake.

A nice supper to look forward to.

Roses on the coffee table.

And chocolates.

It was then I felt this holiday was really coming together now.

The first time I had to shout to be heard because the hotel room was so big.

So that’s the living room & kitchen, now the rooms:

Ironing cum guest room

Masterbed room

Both rooms had attached bathrooms with separate tub & shower areas and Bvlgari toiletries.

There was 2 of everything – TVs, bathrooms, sofas and even balconies - 1 in the living room and another at the masterbedroom.

The view?

Breeze, the alfresco restaurant.

View at night:

All the balconies light up in sexy blue neon at night. Wonder what my neighbors are doing.

We also realized that the Baiyoke observation deck was a waste of time. The same view was right outside our balcony at LeBua.

View at night:

The pool:

With Jacuzzi area.

Thankful. Just thankful for our buffet breakfast with smoked salmon, grilled ham, fresh fruit juices and eggs benedict at the spread. Not to mention freshly ground soya milk complete with crispy mini youtiao. Photos not allowed, pity.

At night, we visit Sirocco, on the 64th floor, to lead the high life, in both senses of the word.

LeBua is also known as The Dome, and aptly so. The dome was visible from everywhere in Silom. Live jazz music from lady in orange on the right.

It’s hard to get camera night settings right!

Upon coming down the nice flight of steps feeling like a star.

Sirocco is a Mediterranean restaurant with a sky bar. While the diners dine and enjoy the view, the drinkers at the skybar can stand around them and look at their food.

Before drinks, slightly happy.

With drinks, very happy. What a sweet ending to my BKK trip.

This time, I left my heart at LeBua.

BKK Again & Again

2008-07-15T15:57:00.001+08:00

Bkk is not only about shopping, some sightseeing is good for balancing out the frantic rushing from one shop to another. For that purpose, we visit Baiyoke Sky Hotel, the tallest building in Bkk, where an observation deck is created on the 80-something floor. Also because we stayed at Baiyoke Boutique, situated behind Baiyoke Sky, it was convenient to go.

Baiyoke Sky is quite grand, pity I didn’t pick the right Baiyoke to stay, but that’s another story for later.

The pool we were entitled to use but didn’t have the chance to.

At the observation deck, which we deviously slipped in for free. That’s a total savings for Bht360.

Ok, by now I think you get the point that Baiyoke is a VERY tall building.

Some boring cultural stuff at the gallery…

The BF has some fun…

Just what I needed for my phlegm…

Cheesy couple shots…

Oh, about the view…here’s some..

And then there’s more upstairs

An outdoor version of the indoor gallery observation deck. Apparently you can buy a dove for Bht50 and set it free here, though I think it might die the moment it flies out into the scorching sun.

The metal ground he’s standing is a revolving travelator that moves round the tower.

The view. Not much different from the gallery a few floors down.

It was so hot the photos looked over-exposed.

Dinner that day at a multi-award winning Thai restaurant called Baan Khanitha, in Soi Ruamrudee, for high quality Thai food in a traditional atmosphere at Singapore price. What a mouthful...

Really good tom yum goong, not too sour & not too spicy. Fires up your appetite.

Tamarind prawns

Thai salad & wrapped chicken.

We had green curry & mango sticy rice too, but no photos. All the dishes tastes so good. At Singapore price, I suppose the food has to be good. If you’re round the corner, I would recommend it for the relaxing dining atmosphere.

Stay tuned for final episode.

BKK Again

2008-07-11T17:16:00.001+08:00

Having visited this famous Thailand capital for the nth time, I wanted to do a brief “highlights-only” entry of my trip but ended up with 120 photos I wanted to post. So much for ‘highlights’, I’ll probably split this trip journal into a couple of entries, also to make up for the lack of blogging these days.

So let’s see where a 4D4N free N easy takes me!

Khao San Road
So many times I’ve been to BKK, but the first time seeing Khao San Road, place of pubs, bars, angmohs and night activities.

Lotsa lotsa angmohs…

There isn’t a whole lot to do here, especially not shopping. Best to come when you’re hungry or looking for a place to chill & have beer, which was what we wanted anyway.

First, we searched for food…

…mini calzone roadside stall!

The satay here is different from SG. It’s heavily marinated and minced, kinda like a mushy sausage.

Chicken, beef & pork, they all taste the same.

But what could never go wrong is – Chocolate Condensed Milk Banana pancake. Somebody bring this to S’pore quickly please!

We find the least sleazy beer place to eat our roadside food and have some beer while watching people get drunk.

Watermelon juice for the lady and Tiger for the man. With what’s left of the most delicious roadside stall fried noodle I’ve ever tasted. Must be all the fish sauce, chili flakes, ground peanuts and sugar that gives Thai food such kick.

Me, greasy from the head & shoulder massage we had earlier in the day at Asia Herb Association. It’s really posh and affordable, I highly recommend.

If you are here over the weekend, a must go place is Chatuchak Weekend Market, a market so huge you’ll probably get lost among the clothes, furniture, accessories, household wares, plants, and animals being sold at the market. The animals! Oh how they tug my heartstrings!

…I want another puppy doggy!

3hrs is the limit I can stay in the sweltering humid environment of Chatuchak. After that, the experience deteriorates in accelerated fashion. On to the next shopping site, city centre Siam.

Typical Siam traffic. What a bugger.

To Siam Paragon for my favourite takeout soup. This time I try black chicken herbal soup and the flawless lobster bisque.

And Food Loft at Central Chidlom for this wonderful banana fritter with ice-cream. Inside the fritter contains not just banana, but chocolate cake, pear & pineapple. How do they make it? Anyway, it tastes lovely and very fine for food court fare.

And then as we strolled pass Siam Centre, we saw 2 phenomenons happening AT THE SAME SHOPPING CENTRE, SAME TIME, in separate atriums.

Thailand’s F4…handsome youths, spikey gelled hair with slick dance moves winning shrieks from every teenaged girl.

VS

“What do those guys have that I don’t have….”

......

At night, we go to the night version of Chatuchak – Suan Lum Night Bazaar. Contrary to the rumormill, this place is still very much buzzing with business and life.

The golden gate of Suan Lum

Rows of endless shopping…

The kinda restaurant surely meant for tourists only…

I rather eat at the centrestage hawker stalls. Yep, the stage with lip synching performers is still there!

Suan Lum is another good place for beers

Beer makes him happy.

To be continued…

Heartbreak

2008-06-24T17:43:00.001+08:00

My dog decided to try to end his life a couple of weeks ago by swallowing a broken rusty needle.

Due to his “vacuum cleaner” attitude towards life, we discovered something was wrong with him after 1 week of constant vomiting. The x-ray result was undeniable, and a surgery was unavoidable. To make the decision of bearing anesthetic reaction and internal infection from the surgery versus him dying from the needle was one of the worse moments of my life. Needless to say, I did not have much choice, it was either take out the needle or die.

The vet removed the needle successfully in a 2.5hr surgery.

It was a broken needle about 3.5cm long.

See it, near the words “Lab Test/X-ray”.

However, the vet noticed complications with his intestines and suspected thread might be stuck in there. However when she opened up his intestines, she could not find any thread.

Poor guy was to stay in the clinic for 4 nights for further testing and monitoring due to his intestinal problem.

He pain, I heartache.

More heartache for me to see this. Both his paws were black & blue from the intravenous antibiotic drip and he did not like his clinic stay.

Shaved belly for the op.

And this is the scar from the op, with stitches attached. Seeing this often made my toes curl. And even more so when I have to wash and apply cream on that area twice a day.

Finally after 5days at the clinic he was released on good (intestinal) behaviour. How happy he was to be home. I could also heave a sigh of relief for not losing my beloved dog so early.

Happy to be reunited with his comfy bed again.

With the lampshade round his head he was so miserable. Under supervision he was allowed to go without it and boy did he miss licking his paws!

He had also lost weight from the ordeal. See, he actually has a waist now.

His fashion accessory for 2 weeks.

Update: Homie is fine now, hopefully he has learnt his lesson to stop swallowing inedible things!

Oh my baby, what will I do without you!

Encore to Big Girls’ Ride

2008-06-04T15:13:00.000+08:00

Ending a scenic experience with altitude, we land on Earth and felt a familiar growling in our bellies. Afterall, it was dinnertime and unlike other girls, we eat!

Wanna make a guess where we went? It’s a place with long long long optic fibre lightings!

I’m so in love with the lights I’m gonna convince the BF to install them over our dining table in our new home.

So…where did we go? A hint:

The lights can change colour!!

Ok, I must be super suaku but ever since I went bankrupt from buying my house I haven’t visited any entertainment spots.

K lah, another hint. The place has a band with a very very big diva. But strangely the diva had a very small voice. Or was it the man who sang? Or was she a man? I donno, I don’t want to go there…

Still can’t figure where we went?

Yeah, we went to The “dwnd” Room spell upside down… drunk before we start drinking eh!

While waiting for food, what can we do? Take photo!

Rose wine arrives, yay! Looks like ribena but is a mix of white & red wine. Interesting, but can’t beat my apple martini

Forgive the excessive flash, but it’s actually an inverted pyramid glass sitting in another glass filled with iced soda, so it’s 2 drinks in 1.

Finally food arrives. Fish & chips, baby back ribs, garlic bread, mash potato, it was all good.

Best of all were the desserts. Warm chocolate cake with ice cream is always a must. Lemon tart is not bad too.

Oops, here we have a bdae girl. Which explains the Flyer excursion and glamorous dinner.

Happy Bdae! May your wishes of “no need to work, have lotsa money and travel the world” come true one day. Don’t we all wish for that on our bdaes….
