25/01/2006 (Wed)I went out for dinner with some friends last Wednesday.. Meeting them around Bugis and since it was still early, i went to Bugis Village to find the bag i saw last time.. But the colour i want was out.. sighz.. Was walking to meet my friends when i saw this two performers..
Nope, i didnt donate.. i is stringy.. but both of them are really great.. can stand there and dont move for a long time.. if i do it, i confirmed fall on my butt.. heehee
We was supposed to go someplace to eat but the place was closed early for Chinese New Year.. Pity.. One friend suggested that we go to
My Secret Garden, which is nearby... When he said Secret Garden, i can only think of the Norwegian group,
Secret Garden (whi sing excellent songs btw..)
Anyway, the restaurant is really hidden in a nice corner... the atmosphere is great with nice jazzy music in the background and candlelights that made all things seemed romantic (the lights are really not great for phototaking though :p)
Do you think the painting looked gay? Hmm..
We can added the amt of honey we like into our drinks cos we ordered ice lemon tea with honey.. Heehee...
We ordered some delicious appetizers:
Prawn fritters with mayo and
escargots (or snails in layman's terms... ) with some creamy mushroom sauce...
Then it was the main course..
I ordered Cilantro Chicken... Another friend order the same dish as me, but his was chicken thigh while mine is chicken breast.. Mine tasted harder but not so fatty.. heehee.. gals like to be slim mah..
Can you see the difference? heehee.. the one on the right is mine :p
Chicken ham and mushroom spaghetti ordered by my friend, Vanna...
Grilled chicken sandwich ordered by the last friend.. This looked very filling hor.. Yum yum..
Last but not least: Desserts!!!
New York Cheesecake and
Marshmallow Fudge (this is nice.. obviously was ordered by mine.. see my nick will know liao..)
We chatted all the way till ten plus.. Then Vanna and i went to meet Jay Daddy at Bala Clava.. It was very very crowded.. Unexpected was playing that nite but it was hard to go inside to listen.. I never realised i was surrounded by so many evil ppl loh.. All want to make me drunk.. Especially Vanna, Jay Daddy and Uncle Deek.. VERY BAD!!! Lucky i smart, i held on to my bottle of heineken beer like it was a treasure.. held the bottle from cold turn to warm... Ppl drank 3 bottles, i drank only one and a half.. wahaha..

26/1/2006 (Thur)Met my sec school friends for dinner at Clarke Quay.. we wanted to go to this Mongolian restaurant but couldnt find it.. In the end, we ate at the Lotus Grill Restaurant, the one with the big boat one.. Wau lao, i tell u ah, it is really a tourist trap so dont go there to eat next time hor.. we super not happy.. i think i rather go eat at
Hooters.. at least it is western..
Then we went to Chinatown to walk.. It was really crowded, with people everywhere.. really 人山人海。。。 I went off early to meet Jay Daddy (again!) and Sheena.. Sheena sounded much sweeter than i imagined, must get her to do a voice blog or something.. Anyway, the three of us went to Bukit Gombak to eat prata, which according to Jay Daddy, is very very good.. To think i never even eat it before when i just lived in the same area.. Alamak.. Btw, only Sheena ate the prata cos Jay Daddy and i were already very full.. I think one day, i must strolled over there to buy some to eat :p

28/1/2006 - 29/1/2006 (Sat - Sun)Had to work on Chinese New Year eve.. I was sooo not in the mood to work that i surf blogs instead... Every year, my family will usually have 2 reunion dinners, one with just the 4 of us on the eve, the other dinner at my grandma's place on the 1st day.. But this year as grandma was no longer around, my family (we 4) decided not to attend the dinner on the 1st cos mom is still sick anyway.. So only went to uncle's place (grandma not around liao so must called it uncle's place) in the morning on the 1st to visit for a while...
Here's the pics for my home reunion dinner:
Steamboat.. like very veggie hor...
Actually is because all the meat is over here for grilling..
Grilled prawns.. mmmm..
My very healthy bowl of vermicelli with a lot of doufu, mushroom and xiao bai cai...
p.S. I realised that i really loved to eat Subway cookies.. 3 for $2.50.. Yummy...
