Lunch @ Philip St Coffeeshop

I was in town for a meeting at headoffice on Wed and had lunch with Siew Loo & Benny. This roast pork stall along Philip Street never fails to attract a long queue during lunch hour.

Dear Benny got carried away and ordered all these for $27.

ThaiExpress

We had dinner at ThaiExpress, Raffles City Shopping Centre after the concert.

Initially we wanted to go Shokudo which is a japanese style restaurant with Marche's concept but the queue was
so damn long that we gave up the thought. Come and be tempted by Sparklette.net.
























Chipped plastic cup






















Pineapple syrup with pineapple chunks & cocoanut ice cream and Singapore most expensive coconut… $5.50! Shop N Save is selling @ $1 only! We are the bigger coconuts to order it.

















Supposedly Bangkok’s most famous chicken rice… it’s just normal rice with very deep fried chicken.














有落幕才会有重逢

重逢 6 Concert at the Esplanade Concert Hall.

The 3 hours concert brings me down memory lane. Great effort by the organizers to gather many local and foreign artists who were once (many are still) music enthusiastic. Although many have moved behind the sence, some have already switched lines and leading an ordinary life.












Bye Bye... Rats!

Took some more shots of the golden rats at the park before they disappears…



5 STAR Corner & 良辰美点

Best selling western food in Hougang – 5 Star Corner. I like their grilled dory fish by its pretty expensive at $7+. Their hotplate stuff are also good… sizzling hot.


















Fish & Chip @ $5.50























Black pepper chicken chop @ $5























One of the best egg tarts - Liang Chen Mei Dian in Sago Street. But we somehow prefer the ones by Tong Heng Chinese confectionary which is just across the street.


Dear kitty’s tail stopped swinging…

My dear kitty clock died… I can’t remember if it was a gift or I bought it like 10 years ago. For a good 5 years or so I cold storage it until when I shifted to my new house about 2 years ago.

I like this clock cos it’s unique and it has my favorite animal on it, plus the tail sways like the pendulum on the grandfather’s clock.

Dear kitty clock… RIP


Close Accounting

Now that CNY is over, we took down the décor and did closing of our books.
The ang pows we received covers half the amount that we have given.… not bad eh.
