Raffles Place Bistro..

The wonderful babes in the office gave me a treat at Raffles Place Bistro located at the Sails for my birthday.

Small little bistro that has only outdoor alfresco dining packs a punch when it comes to their food. Overly attentive service crew (the auntie who keep hard selling) that could be improved on.

Gen & my order of coconut. Slightly over-rated by the service crew. But then again, everything to her is very nice, signature dish and very worth it...

Chewy Calamari my favourite..

Chicken Cordon Bleu, one of the dishes that I would definitely try if available on any menu. Somehow I can't find a single one to beat the one I had in Redang. This probably comes up as 2nd place so far. Fluffly mash on the side that makes me finish it all up at one go.

Gen's chicken skewer with Sphagetti. Skip this if you dislike chicken boobs.

Hwee Hoon's grilled chicken. Guaranteed tender-ness by the service crew. Not too bad I guess. Hwee Hoon isn't a fussy eater though.

Jesslyn's choice of mixed grill. Look at the sunny side up. Made to perfection. I am drooling for the yolk but nope, watching my diet now.. No eggs... No eggs.... No eggs.... The pork chop's pretty good. I had a bite of it.. Yumm Yumm..

Not too sure y but Gen & I look tired in the photo. Probably coz I got drilled by my boss to finish the report asap before lunch?! Lol! Thank you babes for the lunch.. Love it!

MBS Again....

We're back at MBS, this time round with a bunch of us. MBS has given much too many free rooms than they can handle. They had given us early check in at 1pm but the queue was sooo long that my aunt and mum only got their room number at 5pm. Yes, at 5pm! And the rooms ain't ready yet. We are to come back 2 hours later... So off we went to laze around Grandma's room.

Here we are at my Grandma's room. She had 2 night's stay and had checked in the day before.

Not too sure is it cause of her old age, the toilet facilities has a place to sit when showering and bars at the bowl.

See! She even have a bath tub (with a bar). MBS apparently has many many versions of rooms. This is the 4th version of the city view rooms that I've seen.

Mae Sie, Uncle Benny, Ro, & I decided to go over to Marina Sqaure for our dinner. Rest of the gang headed in to the casino. Plans were to meet at grandma's room at 8pm for the fireworks. Oh, someone hijacked our room. System error and our rooms were given to other, leaving us with bay view rooms at low levels.. Lousy! In any case, we were slightly late and were at the helix bridge when the firework started. LOL! Better view! Didn't take much photos as I was videoing the fireworks.

The MBS behind us. We were on the bridge..

Strong rays of lights from the skypark.

Our walk back to the MBS. Not a long walk on a breezy weekend.

This is our room. Lousy room at level 9. Bay view and it's tiny. No bath tub either!

View from my room in the day. All constructions.. Guess it should look better when it's done.

Up we went to visit the skypark before we checked out. Honestly, the view is exactly the same from the hotel room. LOL! But strong strong wind at the top though. Ok, I just accidentally deleted the skyline of singapore's pic while getting rid of the spaces below so no pic of that for you.
The floating platform and the thousands of HDB flats at the background. I wouldn't pay $20 just to come up here. Would you? 2 more nights in MBS in August.. Should I still come?

Ikea Baby

My baby and his Ikea Bib.. Grandma insisted on taking a photo of him with it. LOL. Popped by Ikea for some chicky wings dinner and gosh! I am fat! Either that or the scales there is lousy. Whatever it is, time for some reality check. I need to lose some weight. In any case, been having some online business thoughts in my head. I wonder if it will take off. Wish me luck?

Arnold's Chicken

Arnold's chicken has been at Hougang Green for quite some time and we finally made our way over to try it. Met Aunt, Uncle Benny and Mum for a chicken-licious dinner.

Prices ain't cheap and we are caught wondering why the perpectual full house everyday.

Peppery skin and huge sized spring chicken, this plate can feed 3 pax! Would I be back? Nah.. I dislike pepper. Any one raved about it? Only Darren who always visit the City Plaza branch.. Maybe it is better there?

The Prata Cafe

I finally got my ang pao box! Yep! I finally bought my bird cage! Time to decorate it :)

Tried the Jalan Kayu Prata Cafe @ the Atrium. Pretty empty throughout the dinner time perhaps due to the location.

Service ain't too top-notch with the service crew always crowding together and talking. Had to try hard to get their attention.

Our order of Mushroom Cheese Prata (at the bottom) and the normal plain one. Do you know I can have 4 or more plain pratas at a go?

Prata was crispy but not fantastic. I still prefer Thasevi at Jalan Kayu.

The so-called non-spicy mee goreng that we requested. End up, it's still super spicy! They used green chilli padis and Ro had to finish it up while I had 2 more plain pratas.

Big head number 1 with his new hair cut.
Big head number 2 who badly needs something done to her hair and weight to be lost..

Hong Kong Cafe with the Gang...

Miss Evelyn has got 25% storewide off voucher and greedy me decided to tag along on her expedition to MWL. Kekeke.. Of course my office BFF got to enjoy the very good deal with me! Loitered in the shop for about 2 hours with a mini-hole in my pocket and off we went to queue at the Hong Kong Cafe for our dinner. Poor Mr Richie Qi waited for us girls to finish our shopping and he didn't even get to visit the Body Shop as planned.

Mr Qi's Beef hor fun.

My Ham & Egg Nissin Noodles

Eve's Vege Pork Nissin Noodles

Andy's Wanton Mee

Mr Qi's extra order of prawn paste chicken

Gen's Pork cutlet Spaghetti

Mr Jay's Black Pepper Chicken rice.

The couple, Evelyn & Andy

Mr Richie Qi & Evelyn the clown :P

Genevieve & I. No pictures of Mr Jay cause he joined us much later. After the couple has gone off for their movie. I had a great time. Laughed so much till I was so filled with air that I couldn't finish my dinner.. I love MWL trips!
