Sorry for the lack of entries lately. Been really busy and my tight schedule means I have little or no time in Singapore.

Just had my Spicy Soup with sausages and ham @ The 3 sisters aka Charlie Angels' restaurant just opposite my hotel. Felt damn bloated now. Be heading to Vancouver tomorrow. Shall do all my updates there if I have the time. Be meeting Mario...hopefully he will be able to bring me around.

Time to head to bed...severely lack of sleep.

Gong Hei Fatt Choi & A Happy MOO Year :D


Just had a sumptuous and filling lunch @ Silver Eagle...Woo...the food was just so delicious. Indian/Arabic food could never go wrong arh. Have been craving for their Biryani and Chicken Pepper Fry since the day I know I will be heading to Dubai. It's been almost a year since I last came here and my last visit was with Faith, Roy and Melissa on our way to Moscow. So much has changed...Lots of construction going on and the LRT track in front of my hotel has been erected. More skycrapers have been spruced up since then.

Reunion dinner was spent overseas or rather I did not even have a reunion dinner. However, I got to spend my 1st and 2nd day of CNY with my Family !!!

CNY Day 1 @ Grandma's House


Blackjack. 1189. Lion Dance. 'God of Wealth'. New Year goodies. Movies. Vegetarian Buffet. Ang Paos. Games. Chat. Fun.

CNY Day 2 @ Ann's New Place


Pizza. Popiah. Arnold's Fried Chicken (Damn nice). Lion Dance ??? Birthday Gal. Blackjack as usual.

I still wanna say her place is in GEYLANG. Cos she insisted its Guillimard. It's still in GEYLANG. Booooooo....

Ok, that's it.

Oh ya, how I wish I can join the 19/01 CNY gathering that day. Damn. What a waste !

Gonna take a rest now. See ya.

Found this quote on TV Mobile very meaningful...


" Conflict is like Cancer ... Early Detection INCREASES the Possibilty of a HEALTHY Outcome "


Ever since I came back from New York and Frankfurt a week ago, I have been battling with my body biological clock. I simply could not adapt to the timing back here in Singapore. For the past few nights, I have not had a peaceful and uninterrupted sleep. I was so tired that I turned in at around 11 pm but somehow, I would be wide awake at around 4 am. And I would sleep like a baby for hours in the afternoon. That continued for days. It's really a torture.

Fortunately, I have been able to sleep well for the past 2 nights. So I guess I am more or less back to my normal routine :D

Speaking of New Year, I was in the air on my way to US and arrived New York in the evening where I had my New Year dinner with my fellow colleagues...Complimentary from my company. Fun and Laughter filled the night with food and booze flowing freely like no tomorrow. Wahahaha...a bit exaggerating here but it's something like that.

Times Square on the 2nd January 2009

Did not really explore the city much this time as I was here less than a week ago. I have already seen my Big Christmas Tree @ Rockefellar. I have bought what I wanted to buy. I have already been to where I wanted to go. Thus this time I did not go far and just wondered around the hotel area. The weather was real cold and it was snowing lightly in the afternoon :D Oh and people were everywhere...so damn crowded.

Only spent 2 nights in New York before I left for Frankfurt.

When I woke up the next morning and looked out of the window, I was so surprised and excited when I saw the whole city covered with WHITE SNOW. Yes, the overnight snowing has covered the whole city and the view was simply marvellous.



Beautiful Frankfurt. But do exercise caution when u walk on the pavement cos it's slippery.


Guess what ?


I flew to Frankfurt and New York again a couple of days later after I was back from the previous trip. Well, you may have guessed that I would have spent my entire time rotting in my hotel room for the week long trip but u are so wrong.

BECAUSE

this time, I went to lots of places in both Frankfurt and New York. Thanks to the MARVELLOUS companions I had with me this time. You Gals rockZ !!!

Presenting...

the Super ON and FUN Companions......Sinarie, Jada, Patricia & Joy.
Seen here...Camwhoring in the middle of the walking street in downtown Frankfurt. Trying our very best to look the BEST and got the right angle with everyone in it. Erm...do u get it ? Hahaha...

Thanks to Pat who brought us to this little cafe...Wackers Kaffee...which is very popular with the locals for their very nice and freshly brew coffee. It's located in a quiet corner of the city and so it's not easy to locate it :D

Cappuccino, Latte and Hot Chocolate...


Look @ how excited we were before we had our 1st sip... And in case you are wondering, we were in the sub zero temperature enjoying and appreciating our beverage :D


Here's some candid shots which I took while the gals were busy sipping their drinks...




Some shots may be interesting...but pls refrain from laughing k. Wahahaha...so Kawaii eh.Think they gonna kill me for posing unglam photos of them here...Ssshhhhh...


Currywurst. Nutella Crepe. Fries with Ketchup. Coffee. Birkenstock. Alter Opel. Tods. LV. Gucci. Prada. Chanel. Long Champ. Hako. That pretty sum up our downtown Frankfurt trip :D


Dinner @ Pizzeria Da Cimino ... our usual joint which make really really good Pizza n Pasta.


Broccoli w Champignon were really tasty. The Salmon pizza which I ordered was really nice and the pizza with mushrooms, ham, pastrami and egg which Pat ordered was good as well. Even the pasta that the gals ordered were out of this World. That's our sumptuous and satisfied dinner :D


And it snowed again when we were back to Frankfurt from New York a few days later. I simply love the snow covered Frankfurt :D

After a couple of nights in Frankfurt, it's time to head to New York where we had another round of fun & laughter.

On our way to Bubba Gump in Times Square...



Lunch @ Bubba Gump...


My second time here and I will be back again !!! Food were really great though the portions weren't that big. Seafood were the day...Prawns...Prawns and more Prawns :D The people who shared the lunch with me were still the Best !

Before you scroll down, please get ready some tissues in case u drool :P...

.
.
.
.
.
.

That's what we ordered. It's really delicious and within minutes, everything was gone from the table...abit exaggerating here but the food was just so popular and perhaps everyone was just so hungry :D

We had American Breakfast @ STARDUST the next morning...


Our Sumptuous Breakkie...

Chocolate Chip Pancakes with Strawberries. Bagel with Egg and Potatoes. Eggs Benedict with Potatos. Sunny Side up with Toast and Ham. Coffee & Tea.

What's so special and unique about StarDust and what makes it popular among the New Yorkers lies in her talented waiters and waitresses...


Here...the waiters and waitresses would sing and dance for you while you are enjoying every bite of your food. They can really sing very well and their dance moves were superb. They would pass around a pail asking for tips or donation after their performance. These tips are important to each and everyone of them because they are used to pay for their training in acting, singing or dancing in order for them to perform in Broadway. Well, everyone has a dream..so lets help one another eh :D

Decided to venture to Downtown New York where the Financial District is and where Battery Park is located.

In Battery Park. It's freezing cold here with chilly winds blowing from the sea. From far, you could see the Statue of Liberty (Photo at bottom right). Look at the bench with 'glaciers' hanging onto it....Interesting eh :D

A 15-minute walk from Battery Park would take us to the Historic Seaport District where you could find all the shopping you want. Oh and a very nice unobstructed view of The Brooklyn Bridge.


WALL Street.

That pretty much sum up my entire 8 days trip. It's really fun especially if you have such a great company. How I wish our stay could be longer :D

Oh ya, the Popeyes fried chicken in New York was so much tastier than the ones I had in Singapore. It's really very delicious...trust me!

And I miss the kebab rice which we bought it from the makeshift roadside stall and had it every night for dinner in New York. May not look appetising but the taste of it will make u ask for more. Trust me!

________________________________________________________

To J...
What u did was really foolish and I do hope that you won't do it again.
Everyone has their own problems.
Instead of escaping, we should bravely face our problems
and solve them one by one.
Death will not solve anything.
Imagine the sense of satisfaction u will get when u overcome the obstacles.
That's what life is all about...Ups and Downs...To be able to stand up after you fall etc etc
Afterall,
You are our PRECIOUS and we LOVE u :D

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR

Christmas Eve 08

This is an outdated post but still....

Christmas Eve mini Party @ The New Majestic Hotel

The design of our assigned room...Simple. Modern. Luxury. Bathtub smack right in the middle of your balcony outside the room. What a romantic way to soak yourself in the foam and enjoy counting the stars with your love one. No Peeping Tom... rest assure. All thanks to the Wooden fence ( with no gap in between each plank ) that separate the balcony from our friendly neighbour's. MRT Station Tiong Bahru, Redhill etc were painted on the walls leading to the bedroom. Mirrors were everywhere which made the room appeared spacious. Ceiling Fan was available but useless as the aircon was blasting that night. Like a cup of Cappuccino ? Need not ring for Room Service...Just open your wardrobe and tatata.... your mini personal expresso machine is ready to brew a cup of hot perfect Cappuccino. Want some cold beverages yet afraid of the exuberant prices the hotel may charge ? Count yourself lucky...they are FREE from the well stocked mini fridge in the wardrobe. Oh and that's The New Majestic Hotel.

Food & Booze that flow through the night...

Let's start with the Booze that kicks off the celebration... Piper-Heidsieck Rose Champagne...the Bubbly that made us high even before the countdown begins :P. The sweet Ice Wine and the various different types of red wine that complement so well with our food. Oh, the Fresh, Juicy and Raw Oysters were so lickalicious ! Never tried that as I don't eat oysters but judging from the expression of others who tried...I could see that those oysters were indeed delicious. Never mind if you ( just like me ) don't fancy such food...There's always Turkey Ham & Roast Beef available. The Roast Beef is simply out of this World. Tidbits filled the gap...Various flavours of Potato Chips and the all-time favourite...Cheeze Balls were lying all over the place. Just take your pick. Oh and if you are those very cheena type, we do have fried rice and fried Prawn paste chicken tabao-ed from the nearby coffeeshop. End the night with a slice of the Christmas Log Cake and some pralines from Godiva, Van'd Or, Giotto etc. Beware though, some contained alcohol :P Ooooh and so that's what we had on Christmas Eve.

Of course, we do not just eat & Eat & EAT neither do we just drink & Drink & DRINK .... we do MINGLE with one another, WELCOME new friends, CAM WHORE, PLAY games and LAUGH.



And yar...that's us posing ever so readily & happily in front of my camera and of course, our ever so funny Alan posing as ...........



That's our new friend...Mr Greenie. Poor Valanie trying to crack open her oysters...oops...No pun intended ok ! N that's our Mac posing for the camera while sipping his red wine. N Valenie just like riding on Mr Greenie :O



Here's Fion acting cute...Yucks !!! And various other shots of us enjoying the night. Taboo was fun though.


Here's all of us minus Valanie who was standing behind the camera. Cheers.

Thanks to the Hotel staff who chased us out after just before 12 midnight...the fun continued @ Ben's residential which was just behind Plaza Singapura.

Here's some Fun shots we took that night...

All the Bimbo, Himbo, Act Cool, Act Cute, watever....

That's Christmas 08.

Christmas Eve 09 will even be more Xciting !

GOODBYE 2008

WELCOME 2009

WISHING EVERYONE A HAPPY BRAND NEW YEAR

Tuesday, December 23, 2008


Can U believe it ?

My Sleeping Pattern was screwed up totally for the past 2 days...Managed to only sleep at around 5 am and woke up at about 4 pm !!! This is what I called Jetlag !!! N my day was gone just like that. What a waste ~

Just came home from dinner with my Montfort gang at Shokudo. Second time there and kinda like the Japanese food especially my all-time favourite Japanese Omelette. Glad that everyone is doing well and do hope that we can go for a short overseas trip one of these days when everyone is free since they are busy with their FYP now. Coming next May/June, they will be graduating and if I never quit University, I will be like them too...Again, I tell myself that I will never regret my decision and recent events made me feel that I made the right choice.

Though the drama series which I downloaded from MOBTV was a little old, I truly enjoyed watching the show. Just in Singapore aka Yi Fang Ban Ting Yi Shui Gang was not only a comedy , it also depict a typical Singaporean lifestyle & 'character'...Kinda meaningful and interesting. 30 episodes were finished within the span of 3 days. Watching one episode after another can be so addictive that I refused to allow my eyes to leave the monitor for even a fraction of a second. One down, many more to go...

As mentioned in the previous entry, I was away in Frankfurt and New York City for the whole of last week. The weather was killing us...bone biting cold and wet ! And I fell sick...I guess it's not due to the weather, instead I suspect I got the flu bug from Faith and coupled with insufficient rest for that few days made my immune system weak. Afterall, I know I am not that weak :P Despite my flu, I decided to forgo my much needed rest and went ahead with the rest for our shopping spree.

<>
Did I mention to you before that the hotel's buffet breakfast in Frankfurt is one of the best I ever had ? Waffles, Made-to-Cook Omelette, Sausages, Various healthy Juices, Assorted Bread rolls, fruits etc etc etc and it only cost me 8.50 Euro ( approx. S$ 17 ). With that, you could eat all you can. Of course, I did not stuff myself with all the food...A buffet to me means variety and not quantity. With the variety of food offered, it was damn Worth it I must admit. After the Hearty breakfast, Faith, Iris and myself made our way to the downtown area where we do our shopping...

Well, I did not buy anything except a shawl from H&M and the gummy sweets from one of the specialty shops. The Gummy sweets were really tasty and chewy...Peach n Mango Flavours...Thanks to Ling who recommended to me on my last trip. It's so nice that Faith and Iris decided to buy some back for their family and friends. The biggest winner for this shopping spree was...FAITH...cos she bought a GUCCI handbag. Well, I must say that she got this at a very good price...it's on sale and that the design is no longer available in SIN. When we returned to the GUCCI boutique a couple of days later, the handbag that Faith bought was no longer in sight. She was lucky, wasn't she ?

When we came back from New York a couple of days later, the 3 of us decided to visit the annual Christmas Market in downtown Frankfurt. I dare say that the Christmas Market did not let us down and it's really worth a visit even though we were really tired and lethagic after we touched down that afternoon.


Each makeshift stall has their own unique Christmas Decor and its really nice. The Weather, the ambience, the people etc all made us feel that Christmas was in the air.


A Crowded Christmas Market. An eye-opener.


Some of the food you can find @ the market...

Chocolate coated Bananas, CHILLIS etc etc, Various German grilled Sausages, Gummy sweets etc etc

These were what we ate while exploring the crowded Christmas Market...

We had the popular Nutella Crepe...Oh it was so yummy. Next, we had the Currywurst sausage...*Drool* before Iris decided to give the warm red wine a try. The finale was a cone of home made fries with curry ketchup sauce and I can tell u its ten times better than McDonald's or even Long John...Shiok man. Don't believe me ? Just look at our expressions especially Iris'.

The Night Scene @ Frankfurt

Bye Frankfurt...Will be back in 2 weeks' time :D

______________________________________________


I must count myself real lucky to be able to visit New York just before Christmas. Christmas sales was everywhere and I really mean everywhere from Victoria Secret to American Eagle to Macy. As usual, the Christmas Decor never fail to attract my attention and not to mention the Big Christmas Tree in front of Rockefellar...It's just Awesome. It is here that you really feel that Christmas is just round the corner.

Had an early morning breakfast @ AppleJack Diner with the rest of my colleague...


Frankly Speaking, this was one of the worst American Breakfast I had in the States. The Omelette was kinda dry and the potatoes were one of the worst I had. Ewww...Service aren't that great either. I think I will try not to visit the cafe again even though it's just behind our hotel.

The Hunt for the Christmas Tree began just after we finished our (aweful) breakfast...


Some interesting photos...Notice the Big Christmas Tree @ Radio City ? It's really Tall. Though it's early in the morning, the Christmas lights were already switched on. I guess they were switched on for 24/7.


After a few blocks, we finally saw...


The Christmas Tree @ Rockefellar !!!!!


It's kinda Big & Beautiful...According to some of my colleagues, the Christmas Tree for this year was smaller compared to the past and that it's not that awesome. Oh Well, maybe next year be better ? Afterall this was a REAL tree and maybe due to global warming and other factors, the tree growth was affected ?

The Christmas Tree Hunters along Fifth Avenue :D

M&M @ Times Square



TIMES SQUARE


Times Square was flooded with tourist and people from all walks of life even though it was a Wednesday morning.


A visit to Toys R US @ Times Square

An eye-opener...lots of toys on sale.



Again, the Christmas Tree Hunters taking a group photo @ Times Square before we were splitted into 2 groups.


On our way to Macy...The Empire State Building...isn't she Gorgeous ???


Dinner @ Topaz...

Did I tell you that this Thai cuisine is one of the best I ever had ? Though the price was a little steep, the ambience and most importantly, the food made up for it. Besides Bangkok and Auckland, New York has one of the best Thai food around.

Bought some stuff from Origins & Victoria Secret as Christmas gifts for my friends and relatives back home. I do hope they will like it. Will be returning to New York in about 2 weeks' time, guess will do a little more shopping (this time for myself :O) and perhaps make a visit to new places like Brooklyn Bridge and Chinatown. Again, that will depend on the weather and my physical state. Oh, I do hope that I can see a snow covered New York on my upcoming trip because I miss the snow storm just by a day. Wonder if I should consider myself lucky or unfortunate.

Schedules have been tight for the past few months and I tell myself that I shall give myself a mini break coming the next months so that I can spend more time with my friends and relatives. Kinda feel a distance between me and them...Argh.

Wednesday, December 17, 2008


I just cannot believe it...I am in New York City right now...My dream has come true...to be able to see the World Famous Big Christmas Tree in front of Rockefellar Centre plus the Christmas decorations/sales/lights along Fifth Avenue, Times Square etc etc. The Christmas Season is here !!! Woohoo~ I just cannot describe the feeling inside me especially when I saw the heavy snow flakes falling from the sky on my way to the hotel this afternoon. Oh man, the scene was simply Awesome. Loving it ! Too bad, it lasted only for a while.

Though I won't be spending my Christmas in Paris anymore, I will be spending my Christmas Eve in Singapore with my beloved friends. And Now it's time to do my Christmas Shopping due to this very last minute change. OMG, having a bad headache now as I am really bad at buying gifts...What should I buy ??? Just tell me what u want, Friends :D

What I am looking forward right now is the mini Christmas Party organised by Fion coming this 24th. Initially, I have to reject her invitation as I thought I will be in Paris but now I am glad that I will be joining her mini Party .... Woohoo ~ Oh ya, and I will be meeting some of my friends on the 23rd. Haven't been seeing them for a long long time :( And Hopefully, I will be able to meet up with my JC pals some time soon before New Year. Time to start planning and organising.

Came across this from my cousin's blog the other day ...


Procrastination is POISON to any Goal in Life
ACTION is the Cure
Promises are the CATALYST
FRIENDS are the Warranty
And most Importantly, BELIEF in Oneself is the Core


I find this very meaningful and true. Time for a wake-up Call.

Oh ya, I just realised that nothing is impossible...I managed to pack my luggage for a 8 days trip to a cold country within 10 minutes....Yes....without missing any necessities....kudos to myself. Normally, I would take like half an hour to an hour thinking of what to bring while watching the TV or doing some unrelated stuff etc etc :D

Monday, December 8, 2008


Woke up this morning and found myself having this lump on my left cheek...Just had my lower left wisdom tooth extracted at the dentist yesterday and was given a week's MC ... Woohoo ~ The procedure was traumatic...A few jabs of anaesthetic around the area before cutting the gum open to expose the wisdom tooth, followed by drilling of the tooth into fragments before the poor dentist using all the strength she had to try to dig out the root canal. After half an hour of surgery, the wisdom tooth was finally removed albeit in many pieces before the dentist stitched the wound. Anyway, gonna 'suffer' for the rest of the week and I guess only fluid food allowed and NO seafood for the first few days before I can chew and enjoy my favourite food again. Argh...I miss my Mee Rebus, Fried Chicken etc etc.

Was back from Shanghai on Sunday morning. Oh man, the weather in Shanghai was freezing ! Imagine it was -1 degree celsius when we touched down the night before. Woohoo~ That's my favourite. Oh yes, I did manage to buy some of my 'Must-watch' HK drama series....That should give me enough reasons/excuses to stay in my room during my overseas stay :D That's what I always tell myself but always end up doing other things or heading out :P

Oh yes, did I tell you guys that I made a very last minute decision last weekend to go Penang for a night ? Sound crazy right but I truly enjoyed the trip. Oh man, it's the food that made me go wild ! Here's what I did...


Penang ( 30-01 December )


View out of my Balcony @ Copthorne Orchid Hotel in the northern part of the Island.

Got this hotel room at a very good deal...approx S$ 65 per night, considering that it was a very busy weekend with most hotels being full and that I only booked it the night before. Nice Seaviews and the location wasn't that off. Room wise was decent and spacious :D

Penang is not only a food paradise, it does have numerous famous temples that are worth a visit...

Visit to 2 popular Temples




And so what's my main aim of visiting Penang just for a night..to be precise...it's less than 24 hours ?

The answer lies in....

Penang Delicacy !!!! Chendol, Hokkien Mee ( Prawn Noodles ), Char Kway Teow, Laksa and Curry Mee....Woo...Really nice. No joke. The Chendol was really nice and it was from one of the famous stall which many celebrities have visited. It was so refreshing under the hot and humid weather. The Hokken Mee was spicy and the soup was damn tasty. The Char Kway Teow was one of the best I ever had. The Laksa was different from the ones we have in Singapore...it's more sour and not that spicy. Lastly, the curry mee that I had was not bad. The soup was more like our Singapore style laksa rather than the typical curry we always have. Since I only have a day in Penang, there's still many local food which I have yet to try. Nevertheless, I shall be going JB soon with LL for our food hunting adventures :D

Adelaide ( 21-23 November )

After almost a year, I finally got the chance to visit Adelaide again. Though there aren't much things to see and do in Adelaide city itself, there's one place where I would visit for sure....

Central Market

'Market-ing' @ Central Market

What Central Market offers...Fresh Fruits & Vegetables, Dried fruits, Coffee & Tea, Chocolates, Australian specialties such as Nougats, Plants, Freshly baked pastries and bread, dips etc etc etc. What's best is that...they are all very affordable and fresh !

Only bought for myself some titbits from the market while the 2 girls bought lots of fruits and mushrooms to be brought back to Singapore. After about a 2-hour 'market-ing', our stomachs couldn't take it anymore and we had a sumptuous and hearty breakfast at this cafe in Central Market...

Scrambled Eggs with Bacon and Toast, A hot and crispy ham & cheese croissant coupled with a mug of hot thick Chocolate....Woo....What more can one ask for !!!

Chinatown @ Adelaide



Auckland ( 15-18 November )


Guess what....I went to Auckland again...3rd time within 2 months :D

And...I think I am falling in love with Auckland !!!

Be frank, the City itself or rather the downtown area where I usually frequent is really boring and dead. What made me fall in love with her is the food Auckland can offer. Yea, it's food that make Jang Son so hyperactive :P

The Mussels @ The Occidental are one of the best I ever had. Most importantly, I love the Thai food in Auckland...they are simply so nice and delicious. I wouldn't mind having Thai Food every single meal :D


The view from Devonport ... Auckland Skyline


This time in Auckland, I managed to visit an island off the shores....Devonport. Thanks to Ed who brought me there.

On our way to Devonport...


The journey took about 20 minutes and a return adult tickets cost about S$9.

Some interesting landmarks in Devonport

While exploring the area near the ferry terminal, we came across this Bed & Breakfast Inn which was very unique and beautiful...it has a real beautiful garden blooming with different types and colours of flowers.

Peace & Plenty Bed & Breakfast ... A very nice and cozy place to spend a night in.


Other interesting things that we came across while walking around the island.



Taipei ( 30 - 01 November )

The thing I like about Taipei is its friendly people and its delicious food. A visit to Taipei will be incomplete if you fail to patronise its famous night markets. As I had a 2 nights stay this time round, I managed to visit 2 night markets ... Shilin & Yong He :D



Enjoying our Shabu Shabu in the heart of Ximending...The slices of beef was so fresh and delicious. Nice Nice Nice.

Our Night Market snacks...


The fried assorted mushrooms which PE bought was really tasty. The moment I tried one, I was hooked !!! We went to this famous stall in Shilin which specialise in 'Cho Beng' aka Snow Ice shavings....Woooooooo......it simply melts in your mouth :P The Chow Tofu (fermented beancurd) was really crispy on the outside and soft on the inside...Nice. One of the best I had was the 'Da Chang Bao Xiao Chang' which I bought it from a stall in Yong He...I vowed I will have it again on my next visit. Oh ya, the dessert chain stall which specialises in Yam balls and Grass jelly is a must try in Taipei :P

A Glimpse of Yong He Night Market


In my opinion, this is one of the better night market and definitely worth a visit.


Seoul & San Francisco ( 07 - 14 November )

The Beautiful view out of my hotel room windows in Seoul.... Autumn Time



Saba Fish Dinner @ Namdaemun.


Not forgetting the popular Chicken Stew @ Myeungdong ... Look @ everyone's expressions while tucking in... Yes... It's that nice !


Shopping in Myeongdong


Joanne introduced to us this makeshift stall @ Myeongdong which sell Grilled Chicken Stick...Hey its unique and nice lol. Many told me that the KFC's fried chicken in Seoul taste much better than in Singapore...so I had my share and hmmm it did taste better alas much crispier. :D

Finally after a day out @ Myeongdong... we decided to go ...

O'Sulloc for our Green Tea Desserts !!! Nice Ambience and Good selection of Tea and Desserts. A must visit though a little expensive.

Thanks to Estelle who brought us to this Dim Sum Restaurant @ San Francisco Chinatown


Actually the Dim Sum was quite delicious considering you are in the USA and what I like most was that they are still pushing those dim sum carts just like the old days ... very nostalgic eh :D Something rare these days
.


Chinatown :D... The Ginseng looks like human right...Heard that they do 'walk' :S

Best Dinner in San Francisco

@ The Cheesecake Factory !!!!


Alright, that's it for now...Time to rest :D
