Match making attempts on tues!

was trying to match make maurice with cailing and angela... also as a chance for them to know more frenz... not sure how did the match making turn out... as i was only involved in their first meeting... :p

maurice came down to have lunchie with cailing and me at harry's bar... followed by dinner at gelare with angela... i felt like an extra there... haha... cos i din do much of the talking... should let the newly made frenz do the most talking mahz...

Lunch at Harry's Bar
forgot the name of this dish as it sounds like some italian name... *paiseh*
had the same meal as maurice... cailing had dory fish and its quite a large serving too...
ambience was quite great at Harry's Bar as its not very crowded... mostly are office executives eating there... waited a while for the food... and we were really very hungry... haha... ah, and the food was nice... i liked mine at least... their french fries were great too... :p



and now comes my sinful dinner! all thanks to angela for her fantastic suggestion... despite the fact tat i cannot eat tat... she still suggested tat so i guess i have no choice at all!

Dinner at Gelare
lets start off by taking a look at the nice menus i have snapped! haha...
colourful menus nicely created... i like the colour tones they are using for their menus... suits
them a lot...




The sinful sundaes menu!
Apparently tues was a sundae day! Having promotions for their sundaes...





Our dinner:
maurice had pasta...
angela had waffle...
i had this cookies and cream sundae... :(
must to go gym workout more often riaos!!! :(
Cheers,

Training with di and joo!

it has been of a great motivation to let di n me train together....

on wed, we had trained together at jurong west sports complex... a lot of communications to and for with di cos he din know the exact way... haha... but its real fun to scheduled both of us together... to be able to see how di does his deadlifts and squats etc... and we sorta rotate between ourselves... haha... i guess, having another buttie to workout together is real good... at least we r more sporty? for me ba... its been like 1 or 2 weeks i din get to meet joo for training as was very busy previously... glad i din lose my form... and i tink i done a bit better compared to past few sessions when i cannot lift heavier weights or go a bit further down... yeahz, more to go!!! i can do better than all these! i know i can!

went dinner at botak jones near boonlay shopping centre there... wow, the place damn ulu if u asked me... only been there few times and we roughly make our way there in the dark... haha... got lost for a moment... but then its super easy to get back to my place wor! there is this shortcut thingy, a straight route from my place to reach there!!! hmph!
Our dinner time! *slurpz*
Cajun chicken - di and me had this... looks yummy???



U crazy or wat - Joo had this!

last nite went chong qing with dear... hmm... soo happie... cos dear said wanna go steamboat... i tot from the last few times he dun really seem to enjoy steamboat cos he is a small eater n will become full after a while... :p reached chong qing ard 6.40pm and the queue was damn long! waited patiently for our turn and chatting... hmm... ard 7.10pm we got a seat... quite comfortably seated as the table was quite big n its meant for a few pple lor...

ate the usual stuff... ordered soup based as chicken stock n pork bone... hmm... i tink pork bones taste nicer than chicken stock... lolz... after much brewing, chicken stock also very nice... :p had lotsa prawns (my fav, no choice), fish, meat, vegetables and mushrooms! soo yummy! my turn to feel full this time... haha... dear can still eat maggie mee with the soup... i was like soo full already lor...

Dinner at Botak Jones!

hmm... went for early dinner at Botak Jones Clementi... not muchie queue at all... quiet as well... however 2day weather was very hot... humid lor... before dinner went back office work n clear some stuff, not too bad! then went to a site visit with dear... never been b4... haha...

ordered the food n waited for a while... hmm... was thinking how come they had soo many number of staff when i see quite a few of them were slacking n talking??? here comes the food! guessed its been quite a while since i ate botak jones! cannot remember since when their serving becomes soo small! the portion for fish was quite pathetic lor... :( give me soo muchie fries also no use cos i aint a fries lover! towards the end of the meal, dear and i were comparing rasa sayang at amk s11 with botak jones... and i would say s11 is definitely better than botak jones! suddenly a guy from botak jones came up from my back n asked me hows the food, whether am i satisfied or not... lolz... i was a bit surprised but replied tactically tat food is not too bad... i noticed tat he looked a bit shocked n stunned n took him a few seconds b4 he replied me... he said there r more fries available at their kitcken, anytime if i wan, i can request them to top up... enjoy ur meal at botak jones... haha... at tat pt in time, my plate was still full of the fries lor! :p anyway, its quite a good service by this fellow...

here's the pics:
Fish and Chip - $6.50



















Cajun Chicken - $7.50



















Cheers,

My N73 spoilt!

arghz! dunno wats wrong with my n73 this noon... from morning its been working and all of the sudden after lunch, it kept prompting low memory, to delete some data first... ah, so i tried to del some data away, but the stupid phone totally dun let me open up any files or any sms in order to del data!!! wat a stupid phone rite? if u dun let me open up any files, how to del??? i guess nokia really need to re-hire their engineers when it comes to innovate... keep prompting the message is not good enuff as i cannot del anything!!! this for the whole noon to evening, i am very handicap cos i have no mobile phone to use! wats my frustration? can u imagine i have appt with someone and i need to contact tat person??? wat happens if i run into danger and i need to use the phone but the stupid n73 cannot allow me to? my blood boils everytime when my hp got problem! this is not the 1st time that my hp runs into low memory... occasionally, this issue will come back... its definitely not because i have too many things inside my phone memory... sometimes, its just some caller alerts or ringing tone tat is causing this problem... however i have ever since switched to nokia default tone! and this problem still persists! then i really dunno riaos... came back home been trying to troubleshoot this problem, but cannot get it solved... only managed to reduce a bit of the phone memory but not enuff to do muchie things... guess i have no choice but to send my n73 to service centre n get it repaired! yet, i need to find a spare 3g phone 1st else i would be uncontactable for the whole weekend! just slightly over 1 year, this phone had been giving me lotsa troubles!!! haiz...

conclusion: no more nokia phones for me! definitely no more N series phones cos their symbians n os really shuckz a lot!!! applications hang, with all sorts of farnie error message coming up!

Cheers,

Bah Kut Teh~

hee... tot of this wor... when i wan walking ard looking for my lunchie yesterday... then realised, perhaps can eat bah kut teh since its pork ribs n soup only?

happie to find another alternative as to wat we can eat... and i quite like bah kut teh too... since the soup would be quite nice... and got meat to eat... haha... just need to top another $2 for vegetables... yummy! tats another meal riaos... easy n simple...

just tried out the bah kut teh at lau pa sat... the soup taste a bit sweet and not too peppery... but then, the auntie gave me 4 pork ribs... 3 r big size and only 1 tat is smaller size... sufficient for me riaos... bought a vegetable too... hmm... then got fruits... my meals 2day r sort of completed... :D

Cheers,

Steamboat at Ting Yuan

yesterday had a small gathering with my ex colleague from ocbc, whom r my good frenz... initially our plan was to go chong qing for steamboat... however, upon reaching there with them and gina, the queue was damn long! joc n na din wanna wait for soo long, so we faster tink of a backup plan... suggested either xian de lai or ting yuan... these 2 shops were rather near each other... so we went to check out xian de lai... find it to be a bit more ex than the ting yuan... so we decided for ting yuan...

not very crowded when we reached there ard 7pm... went to the 2nd floor... ordered quite a bit of stuff n waited patiently for the food to come... so we chit chat while waiting... din wait for very long, probably like 10mins... our 1st round of food emptied quite fast... perhaps all of us were hungry... :p had mala soup and chicken soup... mala a bit too strong for my liking... the chicken soup taste quite nice...

wat we ate: pork balls, luncheon meat, hotdogs, crabsticks, pork belly, pork slice, chicken slice, fish meat, prawns, squids, golden mushrooms, abalone mushrooms, spinach, cabbage. we ate more of pork slice, chicken slice, fish meat, prawns, golden mushrooms and spinach... :p
the prawns were quite big n fresh... the fish meat also taste very nice n fresh! chong qing would have more varieties!
wat we drink: 1 jug of lime juice... we din drink a lot so its quite enuff for us... however, if u r a big drinker, then 1 jug is definitely not enuff for u... :p per jug at $6... per glass is at $3... so of cos, i would choose jug... haha... this is where chiong qing is muchie better than ting yuan as the drink is free flow...

total for the 3 of us cost $68.20... hmm... will not go back again... no doubt the food standards were quite ok... however its too ex... chong qing offers more variety and food is of same or better standard then ting yuan... its also muchie cheaper than ting yuan with its free flow if drinks...

oh ya, if u intend to smell nice after the steamboat, then would tink tat ting yuan is not a place for u... i stink a lot after leaving ting yuan due to its poor ventilation... throughout the dinner, the mala pot hot air kept flowing to my direction... even after today i bathe n washed my hair, my hair still have the smell! this would really stop me from going to ting yuan riaos...
