Saturdays

I used to have the whole of Saturdays to myself and i could do whatever i wanted, but as of the start of surgery posting, half of every Saturday is gone!

Fortunately the first Saturday morning lecture was rather fruitful and i'm really hoping that every Saturday lecture will be useful!

Anyway, we celebrated Jessica's bday at the much talked abt Sun with moon. They must be really popular 'cos the waiting list was sooo longgg. In the end they offered us their private room with the condition that we must vacate before 3pm sharp. It was quite and interesting experience cos we all felt that the room made us feel that we are coming up with some top secret conspiracy. haha :)


Jessica, Hope you'll be as Happy, cute and funny as always!

The food was not bad, but we were too full and didn't really have time to try their signature desserts. I hope to try their tofu cheesecake some day!

Foody Saturday last week

At Cedele

Kendrick and i love their soup and bread bar! When it comes to soup, people always think about soup spoon (which in my opinion i think it is not bad, but i like them more for their wraps), I personally think that cedele serves better soup. We had saffron clam chowder which i think beats soup spoon's clam chowder hands down! Not only did the soup have plenty of clams, saffron which was added is by the way a very exquisite and expensive spice used in cooking.
For those of you who know spanish paella, saffron is used to colour the rice yellow and give the grains a special flavour.
Next time when u drop by the supermarket, u can look out for saffron and one matchstick box-size box of saffron is over $10!

Some cottage waffle place

The waffle was just the way i like it. Crisp on the outside and soft on the inside :)
But the dreyer's ice cream they gave me was a tad too sweet for my liking.
Find this shop at the newly renovated connection on the top floor that gets u to the cinema :)

We splurged a little at Indulgz bistro

Well, the food was not too bad. Kendrick's Crispy angel hair pasta was drenched in very yummy mushroom cream and my butterfish steak was so fresh that every bite of the fish in the mouth breaks the fish into discrete flakes BUT the cheese fondue was quite a let down. We thought from the menu that the white wine added to the cheese would complement the cheese but it turned out tt it overpowered the much-loved distinct flavour cheese:(
Has anyone tried cheese fondue? Please tell me if it is supposed to taste like that.

Random pics of Saturday

Going left to right starting from top left
(1) A cute sight of starfishes walking across suntec. I suppose these are children performing for NDP :)
(2) Cute children playing at the fountain. The elder sister would run up to the fountain when the water ceased to spurt to await the next spurt of water. When it happens, she would scream and run away. The cuter sight was the little boy mimicking his sister. But because he is shorter and naturally has smaller stride, he is often slower in response in his mini shuttle runs. He's so cute, cos at one point, he was just concentrating on running up and down and out of sync with his sister! I accidentally deleted the video i took of these 2 fellows though :(
(3) DHL balloon. I wonder if i will ever go up :) Is it worth it?
(4-6) Cute tortises at the arcade
(7) More pretty cakes i saw that day. This time at Aerin's :)
(8) Square dim sum bamboo baskets!
(9) Kendrick loves red bean hum chee peng!
