Some things u din know about Winson(even he didn't know!)

Earlier in the evening, My dad and i were fixing a faulty light tube in my room. I must say, the lighting contractor did a horrenous job previously!! Some parts were stuck to the ceiling with double-sided tape! we took turns cranking our necks to attach some wire that had disconnected. talk about family bonding :)

When we were finally done, after dad's countless times to ask me to be careful, i found out that i had a close shave with electricity. Apparently when i was young(and naive), i was doing something, like connecting a plug, and i touched the "sensitive" areas, which electrocuted me! It was so bad that i flew onto my bed, which might have been a few feet away, and the whole house black outed!

Funny how i cant remember any of it, and i'm super lucky to survived! Phew :)

Journey to the EAST PT 3 (Again)

With suggestion from Lena, we went to Geylang again. This time, we indulge in the age-old Fav, Teochew porridge!

After searching high and low through the sleazy streets, we managed to find the stall we were looking for, with only the clue that its opposite a supermarket (??).

Rog can't wait to tug! Ordered some rather un-teochew porridge dishes(Prawn balls, Meat rolls etc) LOL Partly coz most on display were fatty meats!!

Pretty hungry myself! Well the verdict? So-so with so-so pricing. The stall men kept promoting their fish dishes, which should be their "killer" sale(meaning expensive). Din order though. The salted vegetables were good :)

Wanted to head to Cosy Bay at kallang, which i have never been to. But upon arriving, what greeted us was an empty, dark place. It's closed down! Heck, decided to head to Brewerks along the Indoor Stadium :) Been wanting to try their "famous" brews!

We digged their fruitbrews!!! Had Strawberry that night with Breand n butter pudding :P YUMPretty red folks!

See... even animals can shake their booty!

Look whose's here :P

Peeping...

Aww.. now head on the rail... acts cute :P Reward: a good massage!

Mimi's fully grown le.. about 3/4 arms length... definitely a dwarf!!! LOL

Dwaft or not, she's still very naughty.. seen here biting my clothes! Nonetheless, adorable :)

things you should've tried this week...

YES. This delightful little bun is called the Semla. It's a Swedish dessert eaten during the weeks to Good Friday. Ikea is serving them till Easter($3.50 ea). Saw it on an ad in 8 days(YES) and dashed down to try. I love it so much coz the fluffy bun is stuffed with crunchy almond paste(!!!!) , topped with creamy whipped cream! YEs it's freaking sinful and you can only have a mouth-ful!

So long we have been eating coconut nasi lemak, from Changi village to Punggol to Yishun.... So here's something new.. Pandan Leaf nasi lemak!! Situated at the wet market/hawker opposite Tanjong Pagar MRT, this store demands attention(in a gd way!). If you come later then 1pm, you can forget about eating. Expect long queues and some will tabao over 20 packets!! It's freaking cheap at $2.50 per plate too!!!!!

This is their standard plate(YUMMM) with a crispy-skinned drumstick!!! It's kinda healthier choice too (i think LOL), since they use pandan instead, equally fragrant. Eating this at P. nasi lemak branch will set you back to $4.50++ But here, it's just $2.50 :) Start queuing!!

Leave MIMI Alone!!

This is one total mis-represented Mimi wannabe!!!!!

becoming East Pt2

Yep, there we go again haha! This time we headed to a place that has good food and chicks!! And then some Ducks!! LOL Yes... those "seasoned" players will know it's Geylang i'm talking about. There were days where i would be singing "Geylang sebaduk Geylang~~~" and now I'm there! (Guess it's Faizah's hometown too? lol)

Roger has been a Pro-player in Geylang, for the food that it is! With his expert guidance, our otherwise bored Sat night became a truly wholesome experience :P First stop! CHOW TOuFU!

The Big Signage welcomed us in... though me and Marcus never tried it before, Rog commented that the tofu smells of... SHIT.

The quiet store didn't stink, thankfully hehe.. and we waited. When the guy sitting next to our table got served his tofu, i could really smell the stench!! Somehow, i don't know why i felt it smelled pretty ok...LOL Exotic even. Just like how some people hate the smell of durians.


Finally ours came and we can hardly wait to brave ourselves!!(Not after taking some pictures :))


Munch!

The taste? Pretty juicy tofu! Goes well with the chilli sauce. But you gotta quickly get pass the smell first, if not your brains will start imagining real shit (wahha!) and you will not want to bite! PLease do try the duck biscuit too! Yummy yummy yummy! It's like fried pancake stuffed with roasted duck meat. Still thinking of it though :P

Next stop, Hokkien Mee! After walking along the same street, i realized that every kopitiam table that has an uncle, will surely be accompanied by some Chinese women. Maybe it's the must-have accessory in this area? hehe

This particular Kopi shop serves very good fried prawn mee. ONe plus point is that the prawns were really quite sizable and you can "taste" the wok in the noodles, which means that they were well-fried. Fast-serving and good!

Busy munching away :)

The satay over here is CHEAP. Now you know good and cheap food got to really hunt around. Geylang is actually quite convienent, just that it is super sleazy, with uncles chatting up with any girl they think is a "service provider". Girls just have to act butch lo LOL.

Growing boys need lotsa love.... and more FOOD. Haha! Not slowing down, we headed to the fruits area to have durians!
insatiable with durians ? :P

After desserts, what's next? MORE desserts!! We ended up tabaoing the famous Rochor Bean curd home, though i was pretty bloated by then :S While heading to the main road, we came across this little pet shop of... HOrrors. Yes, the shop had this huge glass tank with fishes you never knew existed!

note the size of the fishy!

Yummy?

Now you know how Cloverfield creators got the idea of their monster!

EEks. There's still so much more good food to explore here. Definitely coming back! :)

Becoming East

These days im becoming a east boy! Maybe i have been hanging too much at tanjong pagar.. for work, food, after work.. need a "fresh" environment hehe. Recently went ECP to blade like after so many months..everything went well, good weather, fun company, though i did had a little bump(thanks to lena :P)

Blading and B-watching :P! *B means something only rog knows!

3 boys and a missing girl!


Ok, i must admit Lena's new Canon cam really takes pretty pretty pictures

After "roughing" it out at ECP(perspiring and all that jazz!) we decided to indulge in something more chic. Ended up at Shokudo Japanese Pasta at Citylink. Well of course, to look "chic", we needed a change in our ensemble(besides the fact that Rog die die wanna go back shower LOL)

Anywhere is good for snappies!

Rog feeling happy

Lena with her fish eggs pasta( technically speaking)

And mine, of course, meat balls creamy pasta... somehow sounded kinda wrong? Anyways, the pastas were pretty good!! Can fight with Waraku Pasta somemore.. do try :)

sad, but motivating
