Meet-ups!!!!

my schedule is packed with meet ups week after week (hmm ok i exaggerated slightly). i am definitely not complaining about it and will be more gladly to add on more meet ups. if only such carefree life can just go on forever. I know dream on you would say. lol..

I am really blessed to have so many wonderful friends who takes initiative to contact me and find time out of their busy work schedule to meet up with me :) blessed blessed blessed :D

and....the most prominent thing to do during meet ups will be.....having yummy MEALS together!!! Eating and searching for good food is what a typical Singaporean will do. keke..

Meet-up #1
Met up with Miss Goh and Miss Mok my dearest ex DT mates :) we had something which i have been craving for.... 'peng/hang her' (bbq fish)!!! all these dishes that you are about to see are highly recommended by me :D provided you have the same taste buds as i do when it comes to food :) i cant remember how much the total bill was as my dearest friends paid for it =x but if i ma not wrong it was approx. SGD35 in total (3 pax). The coffeeshop is always packed with people according to Miss Goh. i had been there twice and on both occasions, just like she said, it was packed!

please do not salivate when you see the photos of the food that we had..keke..the chilli sauce is just spicily delicious and the fish is yummily fresh! awesome!

We ordered bbq stingray which i love!!! the stingray is being barbeque on top of a banana leaf with a generous portion of chilli sauce ( aka 'sambal') being drizzled over. Nom Nom Nom!!!

 wooo!!! introducing grilled crayfish! SLURPS! just by the look of it, you know it's good. i don't have to describe it in details do i?
Last dish it 'sambal' squid! very spicy but very good! generous portion of juicy squid being stir fry with onions and sambal. recommended to order.

Sadly, I did not note down the name of the store as well as the exact address of the coffeeshop but i know it's located at Jurong West Street 51, opposite Rulang Primary School. The stall is located in the middle of the coffeeshop. If you are a Singaporean, it will be obvious to you which stall i am referring to. As for those overseas and are coming over to SG for holiday or studies or whatever reason, i strongly recommend that you  travel around places like these instead of just roaming around central area for food.

Meet-up #2
the G4 meeting!!! :) met up with my darlings who was with me since JC (that's like 8 years of friendship and counting) another thing i miss most when i was in London: STEAMBOAT BUFFET!!! i think Crystal Jade La Mian Xiao Long Bao is one of the best place to have steamboat. On weekdays for the 2nd session (1930h - 2130h) it cost approx. SGD27 (incl. tax n svc) free flow of slice pork, beef, mushrooms, dumplings, etc and and and not forgetting baskets and naskets of Xiao Long Bao!!! yummmeh!!!



I am sure every Singaporeans know about this place but for the benefit of those who don't, here is the address to the one i went: 241 Holland Avenue. Tel:6463 0968. However, the phone is usually engaged and most of the time they are fully booked. So make sure you make reservation in advance so as to not be disappointed. They have many other branches as well, you can google search them :)

Meet-up #5
Met up with ex Dt colleagues for dinner at Sushi Tei followed by games at Minds Cafe. nice gathering after so long :) and a good news received: Jono is attached! :)

Meet-up #4
the 'Malay Friend' meet up. haha well i m NOT racist! the story goes like this. there was once, i was going out to meet a friend and mom asked me who i m meeting, i said 'oh my malay friend' and since then, she is being nicknamed as my Malay Friend. also, she is the only Malay friend whom i meet up with so very often therefore there will not be any confusion as to which malay friend i am meeting.

anw Malay friend and i had been friends since Secondary School so it's about 11 years of friendship already! we had brunch together at McDonald's (fyi, i m her Mc buddy) we chatted for more than 3 hours, topic ranges from politics to everyday life to kids being pampered etc. and we joked around with our usual lame and some times racist jokes (we do not really mean it but just saying it for fun). every meet up with her i learn a little something about the malay culture as i will ask questions which you might think it's silly such as is there such thing as a 'halal' fish??? wahahaa

Meet-up #5
Tennis session with Superman! it has been 2 years since i met up with him i think. but it's all not awkward. atmosphere is still as comfortable as before. he used to be very beefed up, 6 packs, super tan and all but now not as beefed up which i think looks much better =x his body was filled with both external and internal injuries from a rugby match just before meeting me and yet he still insisted that he was able to play tennis with me. Hence, you know why he is called Superman.

ok ending off with the meet ups for now. will con't with them for the next week and hopefully more photos to show. as i sadly announced that i currently do not have a camera of my own. :( anw sponsors?!!! lol j.k

oh and i am still waiting for Samsung Galaxy S2 to arrive. had been asking for a week and there is sitll no stock available :(

Hope it will be here before CNY. i cant wait to get my hands on it.

i shall end off now. Take care till then :)
