7th November

7-11, a very convenient way to remember my good friend's birthday. This year, this day will carry another precious meaning - the day when I leave Singapore to start another phase of my life. I am going to join my husband in Beijing. 8 more days to go and I am feeling excited yet apprehensive. It is not going to be easy, looking after my precious by myself in a foreign land. How is it going to be like spending winter over there? How am I going to survive speaking mandarin with Singlish over there? I have no idea but I know I have to cope with it. In the meanwhile, I am going to spend my precious 8 days in sunny Singapore well and living it to the fullest!

Yummy

Went to Sakura Fishmart with Eleana and gang last Tuesday for another pigging out session. They were saying that the sashimi over there was really good and fresh. So we went over to the outlet at The Village Centre.

The moment I stepped put of the lift, I was greeted with a very fishy smell. It was just as if I had stepped into a market. We decided to sit at the other side of the restaurant, away from the main buying area and kitchen.

we then went to chose our salmon and other fish for sashimi. Besides that, they have rows and rows of Japanese produce. So ...for those Japanese food lover, this place is worth a visit.

Chose your sashimi from here. We had 2 plates of salmon and 1 saba fish sashimi


Rows of Japanese goodies for you to chose from:







Our orders for that night were:
2 plates of salmon sashimi
1 plate of saba sashimi
1 grilled saba
12 pcs of ebi tempura
4 rice sets with miso soup
2 bowls of baby octopus
1 bowl of hotate
4 california handrolls
1 bottle of sake
1 portion of agedashi toufu

Total damage per person :$34

PiG out and ShoP'In

I went out with Angela last Tuesday. She came to pick me up at about 10 plus in the morning for a day of pigging and shopping. We had wanted to eat buffet at Sakura at Orchard Shopping centre but we went there too early and we were too hungry, as a result we ended up eating at Parkway Thai at Centrepoint. Not a bad choice actually. Here's some pics of our pig out :

We decided to call it a day at the restaurant after 2/3 rounds of food, 1 round of dessert/ice cream. Not our personal best, perharps we are getting old and our worn out stomach can stomach so much food at one go. So we proceed to the next part - ShoP'in

Actually it was more of Angela accompanying me as I shop around for stuff. I bought bras, panties, wollen tights at Marks and Spencer. Tried on the knee length boots, nearly bought but discovered discolouring at the top of the boots.

Then we went over to OG to check out the boots they carry. Not very nice so we decided to go Robinson's. Saw a pair of ECCO boots, not bad but then no my size! We were walking around and then decided to go to VIVO, since that woman has never been there.

Went to ECCO at Vivo, got that pair of boots. We went pass Giant, saw milk powder on sale and we bought 7 tins, all to be air flown to China.

My total damage for the day? 700 plus....my goodness!!!!!
