Dinner @ Aerins

It's time for Leecher's wallet to suffer more damages *haha*, when we went to have our dinner @ Aerins, located at the basement of Raffles City Shopping Centre.

Hmm.... thinking what I shld have - most expensive item OR what I want to eat ?

Leecher sweating, cuz I took way too long to look @ the menu .... haha

In the end, decided on having the linguine Marinara - linguine with bay prawns, squid & mussels cooked in tomato base.

We had the prawn poppers for starters - 10 small prawns for $10 bucks ... kinda expensive ar :(

Leecher ordered the Snapper fillet on potato mash and long beans

Super full after the main course, but Leecher still looked @ their desserts menu & that got me tempted as well, cuz the desserts are just too pretty, ;)

So we ordered the lemon meringue - Leecher can't wait to attack in the background ... guess he must be pretty hungry ar?

So happy that Leecher is footing the bill .... YEAH!!!

Picture of the night ...

Mother's Day Celebration

Mother's day this year was slightly different. Couldn't get everyone to come cos Roger got to work... but decide to head out for dinner still to 尉劳老妈子.

The initial plan was to have dinner at The Soup Restaurant. However, I think due to Mother's Day, the restaurant only caters to walk-in customers and by the time we got there, the queue was too long for us. Ended up we went to the 煮炒 at Kopitiam.

But before that, a little present for mama,

and of cos the food, glorious food!!!

Fried rice, got quite bored with always plain rice. But the rice was too salty.

Next is the Hor Fun, also here to replace the plain rice, keke.

Rest of my dishes, including the sambal kangkong, prawn paste chicken wings, cereal prawns and 一品锅. We actually ordered the oyster egg, but they ran out of oyster. In the end, we had to settle for the claypot beancurd.

** Blamer's Mothers' Day Celebration, posted by Blamer **

This year Mothers' Day happens to coincide with my Dad's bdae, so its 双喜临门. Mummy specially went to buy the steamboat & teppanyaki and prepared lots of food ...

Han's chocolate truffle cake ... I do think that the cakes @ Han's are pretty decent and value for money :)

Gave out 2 red packets for Mummy and Daddy ... to wish them Happy Mothers' Day & Happy Birthday ... *wallet super light after the wkend ;p*

While we were happily eating steamboat, Leecher was ....

Double Date Part 2

It's time for a double date part 2 with ZZG, Ryan and Qian. It was supposed to be an outing with the rest of the group, but they went for their favourite activity for the moment ....

so it's back to the same 4 pple again. We went back to Kenneth's shop - Tapas Wine Bristro @ Holland V (again), haha.

Introducing the beer which Kenneth gave us a sneak preview ...

Uber nice, esp suitable for the ladies; a lingering fruity taste in your mouth.

I always love the wine cellar, it's like the highlight of the shop ...

Kenneth is such a dear, arranged for the couch for us to sit :) I love being @ his shop where I am treated like a VIP, hahaha....

Complimentary desserts from Kenneth - totally dig the Tiramisu! Think I must ask the chef for pointers on making Tiramisu :)

Do visit Tapas Wine Bristo if you're looking for a place to chill out or for delicious desserts.
It's located at 40 Lorong Mambong, Holland Village (opposite Wala Wala)

Leecher cheated on me

It all started with a little conversation that we had one night ....

Me: oh, you know, during Uni days - before we got together, I actually had a crush on XXX
Leecher: is it? *laughing, think he don't believe me, bleah*
Me: ya, what's wrong? That time I was still single, it's normal to have crush. You don't tell me you nv crush someone before?
Leecher: of cuz not lah - you know this gal or not (someone's else ex-GF), she was in the same class as us during ABCD module. You know, that time during tutorial, the lecturer asked her to go to the front of the class to present, ya, I think she quite pretty.
Me: eh, wait a min .... when we were in ABCD module, I thought we were already together?
Leecher: is it?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

**** ANGRY MOOD! ****




Take this !!!

Wa ha ha ha ha ......

Poor Road Sense ....

Remember that I once lamented abt Leecher's poor road sense (see post)? 2 of our good frens got to witness it LIVE when we went out for lunch one day.

We all met at the Prawn Noodle shop near our workplace, as seen below:

So after our lunch, we decided to go for our coffee session. Leecher suddenly got an idea:

Leecher: why not we go to the coffee shop instead? (confident tone)Walk till the end of the road, turn left etc ...
The rest (unsure of which coffee shop Leecher talking abt): ok, since you know the place, you shall lead the way ....

***BAD MOVE***

Leecher led the way, walked one BIG round, as indicated in the picture below:

When we could have just ...

Stupid Leecher only realised that the Prawn Noodles Shop is opposite the coffee shop when Fionn pointed it out to him ...

So pple, it's a miracle that he still hasn't lost his way till now .... ;P

Dinner @ Sin Ma - Leecher's post

Here I am back at Sin Ma Tian Ji Chou, but this time it is for dinner with Blamer's parents. Long overdue post this is cos Blamer has been keeping the photos but she keep saying they were with me... (Duh?)

Anywaz, I dun think the last time we took any pics of the menu rite? Here it is:

Quite classy no?

Blamer was going to recommend a particular dish to me called 竹蚌， or bamboo clams. Something I have never tried b4.

This is how they look like b4 cooking.

Was hoping we might get these as well. Niack Niack..

While waiting for our food, must take pic of same old me, and a quite "chui" Blamer.

Close up on same old me, and more "chui" Blamer.

These are the same 竹蚌 I mentioned earlier, in their "cooked stage". Very yummy though, the texture is a bit like sotong, but strange that they served it with vermicelli. Dun play play k. each of these little bamboo cost $10. Phew! Lucky her dad is picking up the tab, ha ha, just whack.

Other dishes include steamed pomfret. especially for the dad 'cos all old teochew must have fish de.

This was specially for Blamer. Since the time we had cereal crayfish at no signboard, she had fallen in love with them (more than me T.T)

Guess wat are these?

Fried Mantou for the main star of tonite...

But I think so-so only lor, initially the waiter put down a bigger plate and we thought we 赚到 'cos we only ordered 1 crab. Ended up the original owners managed to get it back, sian, should have quickly grabbed a piece first, ke ke.

Happy Once Again ...

Been feeling kinda moody these few days ... don't really have the mood to talk to anyone, just wanna keep to my own world

There's a limit to how much my small body can take - I think it's time to 看开，so that I will be back to my usual self :) with my frens, family and Leecher ...

I think Leecher got scared of my unusual behavior and put on his best behaviour, in an attempt not to "irritate" me further, haha .... (i kind of like this kind of royal treatment, wa ha ha)

but there's always something that can put a smile to my face ....

Wonder when will be the day I can own this... ??? *hint hint*
