A "foodful" Sunday

Finally a Sunday off...Woke up early in the morning to have Dim Sum at China Square followed by a walk in Orchard searching for shorts but in vain..

Night fall and we decided to have seafood in J.B..the one that is at a kelong..Curious? Here we go..


This restaurant is located at Pasir Putih ( very remote). The time taken there by car is around 45 mins from M'sia custom. The road there is rather bumpy as its not properly done and the owners cant be bothered to repair it..Haiz..
As pictured, its also recommended by Singapore artistes ( CH U ). But my witty bf found it before they introduce it..haha..

The crowd over there for Sunday is rather quiet (strange) maybe because of the recent high crime rate in JB..So, lets tuck in..
Abalone Slices
Butter Sotong

Hokkien Mee

"Mussels" taste alike

Steamed Prawns ( 400g)

Steamed Garoupa ( 750g )

And mind you all these food are finished by the 2 of us within half an hr time..OMG!



Wahaha... we are really great eaters... Yummy..Brgggg..

Thank God there is MacDonalds..

" Taiwan Porridge "

After a tiring day at work, I manage to have dinner at Oasis. It has been some time since I last went there and today I took the opportunity to take photos with my N8O heehee..
Although its not very clear but its very prominent at the entrance and you cant miss it..

We settle down quickly and order the following..


From Left to Right :

1. Sambal Sotong
2. Claypot Porkribs
3. Oyster Omelette
4. Abalone mushroom with Spinach
5. Sze Chuan stir fried pork.




Our comments on the dishes are the Sze Chuan stir fry pork is the best. We finish almost everything and bear in mind its only the 2 of us! Haiz....








Haha, we cleared everything spick and span except for some egg..





And this is not the last!




Look what we have at Macdonalds barely after 2 hours! But only the Iced Milo and sweet corn is mine..The rest...haha..

Lastly I would like to express gratitude to MacDonalds for supplying free broadband access to people like me..( who do not wish to pay for broadband access at home!)
But we still have to spend on the food lah so overall MacDonalds have a great business strategy.. Attracting crowd with free access and its human nature to purchase food inorder to spend hours surfing the net. So they are in a win win situation..

Looks like I have to spend more $ on MacDonalds the following months..

A night in JB....

All along I love fishhead steamboat at Whampoa Market but to my utmost disappointment, Its CLOSED when i reached there last Saturday.. Damn it..

Therefore we decided to have our dinner settled in JB as Kerry is going in to pump petrol..( save $ ) wahaha.. We decided to have nasi lemak as we have not been there for a long time and i have a urge for satay! Upon arrival, we saw loads of Sinagpore cars as though we are in Singapore..I remember the 1st time we went there was rather quiet as its situated on top of the sea and its quite peaceful having dinner there..Seems like more and more people are in JB for dinner which explains the jam at the custom! Argggg...






15 sticks of chicken satay as our appetiser..








We are so hungry and engrossed in eating that when our main course -nasi lemak came, we just dig in and forgot to take photo of it! This is what I managed to capture..





Leftovers of our nasi lemak...

The rice has a mild coconut smell and the chicken is very crispy although its breast meat..






After eating we went to pump petrol for " xiaohei " and see how seriously he is in work...



Trying very hard to squeeze more petrol into the car...He paid RM$46 for a quarter tank..See the savings if he were to pump in Singapore?

Malaysia (RM$) Singapore (S$)
Cost of V-Power per Litre
$ 2.15 $ 2.10
Cost of ¼ tank ( 20 Litres) $43.00 $42.00
Exchange rate @ RM$1 = S$0.434 S$18.66 $42.00


( ** Above estimation is based on Mitsubishi Lancer therefore it may differ from car to car. )

The savings is around $23 ! Not forgetting 2 packets of cigarettes as well... The total amount will be substantial !

Thats why driving in is one of our past time but ever since I worked in LV, I seldom went in.

After pumping petrol, we rush to get out through the lorry custom before 12am ( closing time ). Alot of Singaporeans do not know of this route and they will end up spending hours in the queue at the custom..heehee..It was a breeze at the custom in both countries and we clear them within 10 mins..which is very amazing for a Saturday!

How I hope that it will be the same everytime but "Not everyday is Sunday!"

Our 11th Month..


6th July 2006 is the 11th month that we ( me n kerry ) are together..We managed to get sometime out to have a nice dinner despite our busy schedules..

We went to Sushi Tei at Serangoon Garden to have a feast..





Yes...Dont be amazed that these food are for 2
people consumption and we ate some sushi that are on the conveyor belt as well..haha..






We are really great eaters..just like Celine and her hubby..but i think that they are still at top of the chart as Celine could finish 3 servings of frog leg porridge and still go to Geylang and eat durians as dessert!

But Delvin is still as skinny..However I am beginning to see some improvements in Kerry's tummy as I finally see a bump!

Wahaha...Its easy..Just dump what I can't finish and he will finish it..


Temporary New Hairdo



This is done a month back..Celine and me are so free and nothing to do that we decided to go for a hairwash at REDS Salon in Takashimaya...I opt for a perm finish and Celine opt for a straight finish..




This is a close up picture of me..Pretty?

What do u all think of me in this hairdo compared to my usual straight rebonded hair?

A survey of 9 out of 10 in Louis Vuitton said that I look better this way..and the odd one out is a guy who do not like gals with permed hair!




But the downside of it is that after i washed my hair,I feel so sad as its so dry from the perming process! I know that I am not a disciplined gal and I will not spend time in the morning styling my hair so permed hair may not be a good option for me....

Connected at last!

Wahaha...Finally I am back..

I m not lazy but I do not have access to the net! Finally today I manage to use kerry's laptop to tap onto others' network!

So please tolerate with me as the next following few postings will be done in todaY! So its a summary of my life in these 2 months that I am missing! I hope that I could update everyday but its subject to connectivity....

So here I go...
