2 Days With People I Love

Monday was probably one of the days which our clique was looking forward to, because the sun started rising from the East and.. Vic agreed to let us visit his house!!! This was the first time ever in like 8 years since we've known him hahaha! So even though I only had a few hours to spare I chiong-ed to his house after a job interview in the morning! #diealsomustgo  
His mum was damn nice, she cooked lunch for us and boiled green bean soup(my favourite!) even! The chiffon cake is also handmade by her and I was so tempted to ask her to teach me!! Because my cake baking skills are horrendous, especially when it comes to making sponge cakes.   
Surprisingly Vic's house is very suitable for taking photos. Look at the fabulous lighting hahaha!
After that I made my way to Vivo to meet Jay, and we had an impromptu picnic at Sentosa on the beach. It was really a breath of fresh air, sitting by the sea munching on nuggets and chips while feeling the cool breeze. So relaxing I will totally try that again one day!! :D
We left at around 11pm, and it was very convenient for me that night because my home for that night was at Costa Sands Resort hahaha! We had a clique chalet with nearly full attendance(with the exception of huhu)and we all agreed to keep awake till the next morning to chit chat and play card games. And guess who was the first one to fall asleep as usual? Me hahaha! I was sleep deprived for so many days I naturally dozed off after stealing thumb's bed. But not before munching on chips on the upper deck and dropping pieces on Vic who was on the lower deck LOL. He was super disgusted and I highly suspect he didn't know it was me. He probably thought some weird stuffs dropped down from the ceiling.
By the way I slept a total of at least 7 hours, in between I woke up to amchio a little as I heard Vic spouting lots of rubbish. When I finally woke up at 8am all of them were like "You finally woke up!! You come here to sleep one is it?!" LOL.
 The next day I had an impromptu lunch with Clem because I was nearby at Chinatown for an interview. This was at some seafood restaurant by the river at Raffles Place. I had the seafood fried rice which portion was so huge I seriously don't think 2 days of the rice I eat can add up to one plate of this.
Took this photo when I was helping him to shoot a farewell video for his colleague hahaha!
Fast forward to the same night, where I met the money sucking temps(& Clem again) for Ah Kok's belated birthday celebration! This was a snapchat to Ah Kok to remind him that we were waiting for him to join us hahaha!
Bluemist at Tanjong Pagar, recommended by Clem.
 The main courses were mostly below 20 bucks, and portions were huggeee!
Clem recommended the Fish & Chips, and after ordering Latin was asking how come he didn't order Fish & Chips as well. Clem then revealed that he always feel nauseous after eating the huge portion of Fish & Chips plus alcohol. Latin then thanked him sincerely, for telling him only after he had ordered LOL!
 We had half a dozen of ciders, all different flavours and colours.
The ciders were all so pretty we lined them up and started snapping photos to insta!
Group selfie taken with my lousy Note 3 camera.
 Happy belated birthday Ah Kok!!

Fat Die Me Week

So last week Wee, CY, Marcus & I visit Marche @ 313 Somerset for dinner after a long time!
 Marcus's Rosti with sausage.
 CY had smoked salmon, sausage and a whole Rosti to himself too.
The guys complained of feeling sick after eating a whole Rosti, so me and Wee laughed at them because we had originally wanted to share the food so we could try more varieties hahaha! And they finished all the Rosti and left none for us!!   
Pork knuckles and baked potato!!
I had always hated pork knuckles but after I tried this I totally love pork knuckles!! It was soooo delicious I have cravings for this from time to time now!! Definitely going back for more soon!
 Duck pizza with hoisin sauce!
Strawberry Banana Rendezvous!
After dinner desserts!
The next day I met Tony for another café outing, this time at Brew Maison because their Latte Art Artist was on duty!! :D
Before he came I was staring at this Alpaca in the display, it was so adorable!!
We made reservations for the 3D Latte Art one day before and were allocated a timing.
Waiting for our food!
Pasta with chicken fillet.
Pork wrap with curry sauce.
And finally it was time to collect our lattes!! We had the dog and the cat!
We had the Goguma(Sweet Potato) Latte and Kabocha(Pumpkin) Latte! They also have Taro(Yam) Latte! I must say their drinks are really awesome!
The usual café selfies whenever we are bored and have nothing to do hahaha!
Yum yum!
 
I couldn't resist the temptation. I stole the alpaca from the display and told Tony to snap a quick photo for me hahaha!
Dinner for that night was with the family. The sister brought us to Grand Shanghai to try the food and take a look at the place because she was interested in holding her wedding there.
I was the first to reach and it took them quite a long time to find our reservation that I begin to wonder if I entered the wrong place lolol. Turned out they wrote my sister's name as Tan P F instead of Chan P F.
The place was really grand and the ambience was great. I remembered I was pretty fascinated when I first stepped in. There was even a stage with an Old Shanghai theme and the singers sang plenty of old songs!
The whole restaurant was fully booked and I don't think we could have dined there if we didn't make a reservation.  
Menu.
The food was awesome!! I loved every single dish, including the desserts!!
Impromptu late dinner meet up at Din Tai Fong with Clem for the week, and another HTHT session heehee!  
Oops and I forgot about this! Raymond's Macarons all the way from Paris from the bro-in-law! Macarons just make me so happy because they are all so colourful!!
