Tim & Jonathan were in SG office last Sep for a week. Besides the usual product updates, reviews and meetings, we played host and brought them out for feasting & boozing!
Peranakan Food @ Mama Chin, Circular Road.
The peranakan laksa & popiah were chef recommendations! We all ordered the set meal which comes with drinks + main + desserts @ $10.
Chilled drinks for our guests as they were not accustomed to SG weather.
Julian Hee look alike? Hee, that was my first impression when I met Jonathan for the 1st time! Even Andrew agrees with me.
Drinks session @ Post Bar, Fullerton
Another of my fave chill out place, besides Morton.
Indian Food @ Muthu's Curry, Suntec
Tim was game to try out fish head curry and before you know it, we arrived @ Muthu's Curry.
We had to order 1 dish each and soon, the table was filled to the brim. Fortunately, we had Andrew's bottomless pit to help with the food :)
Tim attempted to try the fish eye after hearing stories about John's adventures previously. Elliott & Andrew were secretly betting if he would chicken out at the last min.
The great leap of faith!
Group picture, as always!
Raclette @ Wine Company, Robertson Quay
We decided to go Swissy this time and went for Raclette @ Wine Company. Raclette is essentially melted cheese, served over boiled potatoes with lots of ground black pepper, accompanied by small pickled onions and gherkins. The name comes from the French verb "racler", to scrape, because of the way the melted cheese is scraped off the block.
Elliott looking through the wine list; deciding which are the best wines to go with the cheese.
Different types of cheese on display.
I am starting to drool just by looking at these pictures.
Look at the melted cheese; I can literally smell the fragrance of it whilst typing this entry. Must be my neighbours cooking some cheesy stuff.
We ended the night @ Pump Room for booze and playing 终级密码. I was lucky to escape with 2 drinks as forfeit while Natasha and Jonathan were on par with 6 drinks each! On a side note, congrats to Tim for having his first baby! His daughter shares the same birthday as me, so he won't have the excuse for forgetting my birthday in future :)
10 bottles of Corona b4 Happy Hour ends
Fling & Joe, please kindly superimpose yourselves into the picture. Oh, Qian can do the job, judging by her new-found talent!
The brothers were surprisingly enthusiastic in giving tips to Qian on her "mission"; trust them to come up with those ideas; omg!
Ron keep suan-ing Qian the whole night. They behaved as if they 贴错门神 , with the joke on Qian being a slut, lol. Qian decided to strangle Ron to take revenge.
While Qian & Ron were bickering @ one end of the table, Miao & ZZG decided to show their affection for each other :P
Finally, we have the real couple who were sitting on the fence like me, watching the drama unfold.
I decided to join the ranks of the affectionate couple :)
We ordered their homemade chips as snacks after a round of drinks. My my, the chips are super addictive! Even ZZG couldn't resist it :) A must-try snack @ KPO, rem that!
