Fun Hideout

当初恋爱时，我们没想到分离

当我们分开时，却忘了当初为何在一起

When in love, we dun expect separation

When we are separated, we forget why we are once together


P.S This is quoted from the TV drama serial, not my "voice"!! I'm still happily in love so dun start flooding my mailbox with words of comfort!! I'm warning you!! =p

This was recommended by my colleague, so I decided to try it out since I was around in the area ( Millenia Walk). It was kinda "hidden" in a quiet corner. Crowd was quite pathetic given that it was a Saturday night. But I guess Millenia Walk was not a good location to start of with. The crowd at most of the eateries here just could not compare to those at Suntec or Marina Square. So not a bad idea to walk a bit further and come here for dinner if you could not get a seat at Suntec or Marina Square. Keke.

Perhaps due to the small group of customers to attend, customer service here was kinda extremely warm. We were shown to our seats, and immediately we were given the spices assortment ( picture below) even before making our orders! Kinda taken aback lor... When customer service is bad, we complain like hell. And when customer service is good, we feel weird. One word -> 贱. Hahaha..

I decided to go for the set dinner since it would include a main course, drink and dessert/side dish. Vietnamese cuisine is famous for their beef noodles, Pho Nam is a must. Well, dun ask me what's the difference between Pho Nam and Pho Chin. Polly meant the different part of the cow bah. In the end, we ordered 1 Set A and 1 Set B. Smart rite? So that we can share a side dish and dessert mah... Budget!

After dinner at PHO 24, we went to Oscar which was just a short walking distance. Dint manage to sell off my Oscar $35 vouchers oso cannot let them go waste mah. And so we decided that desserts would be a good idea! =p

Once we settled down and made our orders, immediately we were offered a bucket of bread assortments.

Desserts were pretty to the eyes, but kinda suffering for the taste. They were either too sweet or too sour! Sobz... Well, I would never come here for desserts on my own if not for the vouchers. Each cost $15+ , which I could get better ones elsewhere. Slightly disappointing though..

Just had our company D&D recently but then the food so-so niao... so I went for a little snack at Coffee Club after the event. Haha.... Super jia lat now, if food not very nice, I cant force myself to eat liao.. Not a bad thing, at least I wont be a glutton and eat anything. But hor, I ended up eating supper. Good or bad, I dunno leh?? hee

Fruity Tiramisu

I love tiramisu, so this really catches my eyes! Somemore, it was so pretty. But it really dun taste like tiramisu, but rather raspberry sorbet. I guess this was taken out from the freezer, hence the mascarpone cheese was kinda icey. Taste wise I would think it was passable niao.. =p

If you know me personally, you know I HATE cockroaches!!! But the more I hate them, the more they seem to be appearing in front of me.

Once, a super big cockroach flew into my bedroom machiam it was a fighter plane. Mind you, I stayed at 10th floor. That was a super long distance to fly, multiply by dunno how many times, considering the size of that stupid bugger. Where was I? I screamed and ran out of the room to get reinforcement aka my mum.

2nd time, I saw a string of ants crawling around my study table. At first, I thought maybe there was food bits hence attracting the ants. So I just killed the ants lor.. But they kept appearing until I super frustrated. So I traced the ants to their destination. Holy Mother!! Super big cockroach dead behind my hair dryer box on my table. SUPER DISGUSTING! Again, I screamed and dear mum got to clean up again.

3rd time, I finished bathing and was packing my bag in front of my study table, preparing to go out. When I took my bag to place my stuff inside, I saw a LUGI BIG LIVING cockroach on the table AGAIN!! My bag kinda blocked my view when I was packing. And this time round, mum was not at home! I was home alone!! SOBZ.. I stared at the cockroach and cried. But I was thinking I got to kill it or else it might crawl to my bed. Bo pian, I went to get insecticide and kept spraying on it, while keeping a good far distance. I almost used half the bottle to satisfy myself that it was dead oreadi, even at the expense of damaging my laptop coz I kinda sprayed insecticide on my laptop as well. After that, I took my bag and went out, leaving the DEAD cockroach on my table. I dare not touch it lah, so got to wait for my parents to come home and clean lor.

Last night, I was writing some birthday cards and when I was done, I needed to paste the envelope mah. So that needed water mah, so I went to my bedroom toilet ( master bedroom). I tot quite fast one so dint turn on the lights. GUESS WAT?? YES!!! There was a LIVING cockroach in my toilet. This time EVEN worse -__-"" I STEPPED ON THE BUGGER BAREFOOT. SOBZ... I screamed like someone was being murdered, in the middle of the night at 2am, and my parents kenak woke up by me. My dad said I screamed until whole block can hear me oso.... =( Anyway as usual, my mum went to kill that bugger who was almost half dead since I stepped on it. Serve it right!!

I oreadi placed like so many cockroach traps in my bedroom: 2 at my study table, 3 on my window grills.. but they are all not working!!!! You know, those traps suppose to emit smell that cockroaches dislike and so they will not come near. I put 5 liao, and still the cockroaches come and go like nobody business! Can anyone recommend me better and effective traps???

Mood: Tramatized =(

Update on 25 June 08

I saw the stupid bugger in my toilet AGAIN!! How many times must they appear in front of me?? SoBZ.... But having undergone numerous "trainings", my radar is super sensitive now. I wanted to do some very serious business, but before I stepped into the territory, I combed the whole place. ALAS! That stupid bugger tried to hide behind the white water pipe. Idiot, it thought that I'm colour-blinded or wat? Perhaps, it was not trained the act of camouflaging in their " army school"??? Of coz, I spotted the feelers moving and it trembled and back tracked slightly.

To the cockroach: "YOU ARE SMALL BUT YOU ARE NOT INVISIBLE!!! BLOODY FOOL!!"

I shouted for my ally aka father and eliminated the bugger straight away... HAHAHHAHA..

To the cockroach and its families, frens and whoever: " DUN LET ME SEE U AGAIN OR ELSE..... DUN BLAME MY MERCILESS. "

While I was surfing the website one night, I came to know that there was this new spa experience where you lets fishes to nibble around your legs and feet. And so I chosen an "auspicious" date on 13th, The Friday to try it out! At the same time, I wanna check out the localized London Eye => The Singapore Flyer, coz they were both situated at the same place. One stone kills two birds!

As it was quite a distance from the City Hall mrt, we decided to feed our stomach first. After walking in circles in Marina Square, we finally settled with Changing Appetite. Anyway this entry was not meant as a food review so I shant go indepth about it lor. But since I oreadi took pictures, so just showcase them lah..
