A Week in Singapore 1
Another week have passed by. A group of folks handling some devices which I am not able to identify. From far, it's looks like the drip used in hospital. LOL! Taken from my kitchen window.
Having lunch at a restaurant (coffee shop style).
Going through the menu and trying to determine what to order. Finally, decided on having Dim Sum.
For starters - Shredded Chicken Porridge. Need to add a bit of soy sauce to bring it to taste.
Then the whole load of Dim Sum arrived at the same time - Shao mai, har gow (shrimp dumpling), char siu baau, rice noodle roll (cheong fun) and lotus leaf rice (lo mai gai). Burp!!
The Body Shop was having 20% store wide discount so I decided give Nettle Oil Balance Shampoo a try. So far it's working well by removing excess oil but yet doesn't irritate or dry up my scalp.
Some food shopping from a local supermarket - 2 Fruit Tree juice at S$4.55 and 1 Kiwifruit Gold at S$4.15.
Water fountain outside of VivoCity.
Tangs was having a sale bazaar in VivoCity.
The bridge leading from VivoCity to Sentosa. The construction that is on-going on the right is "Resort World at Sentosa".
Walking towards Brotzeit which is a German bier bar and restaurant. Bier is the German and Dutch word for beer.
After ordering the food, I took a shot of the interior of Brotzeit. It's a nice and cozy place with good food and beer too!
Wurstplatte (sausage platter) at S$32.50++. Consists of spicy chicken sausage, pork bratwurst, cheese sausage, weisswurst sausage and garlic sausage.
Backhendlsalat at S$19.50++.
Pork Knuckle S$36.00++. It's roasted until the outside is very crispy yet retaining the juices! Goes very well with beer!
Original Münchener Lager Paulaner S$17.10++ (before 5pm). Actually intended to get 0.5 liter but ordered 1 liter wrongly instead. Ha ha!
Trying out a Vietnamese instant coffee mix from Vinacafe while reading Starbucked by Taylor Clark.
Was at Bishan Junction 8 walking around until I felt the urge to fill my stomach with some snacks. Initially, wanted to go for cold dessert but changed my mind later.
Had Takopachi (Japanese octopus ball) instead. S$2.30 for 3 balls.
Most of the time, I asked for take-away dinner and eat at home in front of the television. One of my favorite food - Seafood Hor Fun S$3.50. The freshly-cut red and green chilli are added by me. Haha!
Managed to spare some time to flash the ROM for my HTC Touch Diamond. Before - HardSpl 1.24, Dutty's V3.5 WWE [WM 6.1 Build 20764.1.4.3] and Radio 1.00.25.05. After - Unsigned 1.40 OliNex, DeepShining 8.0 Service Pack 0.3 and Radio 1.09.25.23. Running fine except there's a few minor flaws but I am still pretty satisfied with it. For more details on flashing, go xda-developers.com.
Ikan Satay that my brother bought during his trip to Malaysia. I had eaten this snack before and based on my memory, it wasn't such a tiny piece. It must have shrunk over the years! Wahaha!
Having Hong Kong Food - Nissin Noodle with Egg and Ham S$5.80++.
Hot and Spicy Noodles S$8.50++.
Hot Yin Yong (a blend of coffee and tea) S$1.80++.
Lemon Coke S$2.90++.
Baked Chicken Wings with Cheese S$5.20++.
Something that I got in my mail box - it's for you to stick under your armpit to test the degree of sweat! I didn't try it but those who sweat a lot may want to try using Rexona (as per solution given above). :P
Usually we don't go to huge departmental stores to get our fragrance as some smaller shops tend to have better pricing. Both are from Banana Republic - Alabaster for Woman S$85 and Slate for Man S$85.
Another round of replenishing food at local supermarket. :)
- The instant noodles and soup are for hungry situations
- The evaporated milk is for my daily coffee making
- The juice and soya milk is mainly consumed by my partner
