Modern rubbish bin
Saw some interesting and nice rubbish bins at United Square when we had our lunch at Vienna International Buffet on Monday. It was so cute that I decided to take a few pictures of them.

Celebrating at Kuishin-bo
On Wednesday night, I meet up with 3 friends for a gathering and also for a birthday celebration. We meet up at Jurong Point and after some discussion, we decided to have our dinner at Kuishin-bo because there's a promotion. It was ladies's nite on every Wednesday till 31th Aug, a 2 hours session buffet dinner with only $29.90++ per pax. What's more, there's snow crab available only during dinner hours. We all want to try snow crab as we haven't try it before, typical "mountain turtle", haha...;p
Newly opened Kuishin-bo Japanese Restaurant at Jurong Point
Salmon sashimi which the 3 of them shared cos I don't eat salmon sashimi
Other sushi that the 3 of them shared.
Tempura prawns & Japanese pancake
Teriyaki eel, tempura prawn, saba and teriyaki chicken which they shared.
Grilled lobster with cheese (only for the first 40paxs) this is the last 3 sets!
Aren't I lucky???
My seafood plate - scallops, soft shell crab, prawn, tako sushi and snow crab.
It's very sweet and fresh! Can't really describe it, that's why I had a lot that nite.
Chocolate mousse and mini cakes
Lastly, after too much snow crab, my tummy's got little room for desserts.
All in all, it's quite nice and all 4 of us enjoyed the dinner that night.
Will definitely go back again with SGMale again soon....;p

Breakfast at NTU
It is certainly nice to have breakfast at a quiet and serene place once in a while. Yeah..we took the chance to go for a very early meal at NTU which is near our place one fine morning.
The food is slightly above average and the price is economical, most importantly the ambience is nice.

Latest Titbit Craze
Guess what..we are into Pocky..all different flavors of Pocky...yummy.
Leave it to the Japanese to redesign the cookie into a crunchy chocolate covered stick. Pocky is the delicious dessert-style snack of choice. we recommend excessive Pocky consumption while viewing your favorite channel 5/8 TV show. ')

Ang Mo Kio Hub
After the sumptuous lunch at Vienna, we drove over to AMK HUB to catch a movie [Hancock]. It was about a man with superhero power that attempts to save human lives but in a very rude and outrageous way until a someone change him slowly...i shall not reveal too much here...go watch the movie, it's worth the money.
After the movie, we walked around the hub...bought 4D and TOTO and of course, shopping, shopping and shopping...what else man..:)

Lunch at Vienna International Seafood & Teppanyaki Restaurant
SGFemale and I took the day off on Monday and yes..we went for a huge feast at Vienna International Seafood & Teppanyaki Restaurant. We started off with a some soup and veggie stuff and looking at the huge buffet spread before us, we could not help but try out most of the delicious dishes. SGFemale was very much into spanner crabs and I was attacking mostly the pepper crabs and raw stuff.
They change the dishes from time to time, we were kind of spolit for choices..
The ambience is nice and the waiting staff were fast and efficient in clearing away our used plates..;) Though the price has increased by a few bucks, it did not deter Singaporeans like us from spending our hard-earn money here.

Latest arcade craze
Having seen some youngsters played the 'control and grab' game to win the type of miniture or toys that one desire from a transparent display cabinet and after some period of keen observation, SGFemale decided to give it a shot last weekend.
Wasted $3 bucks on first few attempts, I gave it a shot and YES!! I got ourselves one 'banana stuff toy'..and after spending some $15 more bucks, we have altogether won 4 'Banana toy'. We reckon that each 'Banana' should cost about $5-6 each in the market. What comforting thoughts and assumptions..;)
Anyway, our son loves the toys and it is at least one little consolation if any...

Unexpected visit to a rural part of Singapore
After sending off our son to his favourite weekend escape, a 2 day 1 night stay at my in-law's house, we set off to explore the east side of Singapore. SGMale suggested going to Bedok Shopping Centre. Upon hearing the venue, I got a little "sian", cos never heard of it and got an impression that it must be somewhere similar to Boon Lay Shopping Centre.
I was right about it when we finally got there after 90mins, cos we lose our way, hahaha.... even with our GPS. It was like JB, with a few shop houses, coffeeshop, fruit stall and with a supermarket (Shop N Save).
We walked around the place and found a few restaurants hiding at the corner, as there's nothing special about their food, so we ended up eating at a crowded coffeeshop. We had noodle, mee siam and rojak for our lunch. The noodle which SGMale was having was very nice, no wonder all the people in that coffeeshop were all having it, except me.
When I saw SGMale wolfing down the noodle, I asked to try his noodle, hm... it was indeed very nice. I should have ordered that. As I usually don't eat yellow noodle, I gave it a miss. I would always prefer bee hoon to noodle anytime and that's why I ordered mee siam, but it didn't turn out good, was too concentrated.
After lunch, we bought a donut at "Donut Master" to share, it was a Chocolate crunch with cheese at $1.50, quite expensive for one but it was really nice and soft. Will definately go back again for noodle and more donut next time. Hopefully, we won't get lose again, hee!!!

New toy from Samsung
Finally I manage to reserve and get this long-awaited multi-function phone. The best part of this phone other than its unique touchscreen capabilities, it has this iphone look-alike interface that never fails to intrigue me...this phone should last me for at least 2-3 year i hope..;)
Only get to paid slightly over $200 buck for this new toy after re-contracting my phone service and trading in my old N95 phone.
So far this phone has not failed me yet in terms of features and it's amazing battery life...

Handi Massager
Brought this massager from Bugis Junction. In our opinion, it manage to achieve the same desired effect as that of the OSIM massager which costs many times more..
Will be using this very often as we are both victims of frequent shoulder and backache.
Sign of getting old huh!

Electronic keyboard for our son
Our son seems to have special liking for electronic keyboard, hence we decided to buy one for him last weekend. He was very happy and excited as we unwrap his new toy for him..children being children..they are always so happy with the simplest thing in life..unlike adults..as we grow old and old, it takes more and more materialistic things to make us happy....sometimes we should not forget to relive those childhood happy moments as they are indeed priceless!

Masterpiece from our son
It is always very nice to see our son bringing home his artworks from the childcare centre. His most recent masterpiece manage to bring endless smiles to SGFemale's face. TO be honest, we are both very proud of what he can do now.
As we watch him grow day by day, we also realise that we are getting older and older as well. We must always remind ourselves to spend more time with him while we can. When he grows up and have his own groups of friends, we will not have the opportunity to 'bond' with him anymore..time and tide waits for no man...DO IT NOW! Yeah!!

Home Threater System
We manage to redeem the Home Threater System 2 Sundays ago. As we did not bring any carry aids with us, I have to carry the entire box all the way to the car which is across the road on the next building. It was no doubt very good exercise for the heart though..;)
We set it up almost immediately upon reaching home as we could not wait to hear & witness the sound effects..
The box comes with 4+1 speakers and 1 Sub Woofer. Setting them up was a breeze..the real challenge was to tied neatly all the loose ends of wirings...I manage to bundle the entire barbs of wirings together under a wrap of plastic covers that comes with the speakers.
The sound effect was indeed very good as we watch our rental DVD over it.
NICE!

Most recent food crave
Not sure when it all started but I have been craving for both Char Siew and Roosted Pork rice and I have been ordering them for lunch and dinner unknowingly.
My favourite store is at West Coast Road. Their duck rice, char siew and roosted pork is one of the best I have eaten so far...the place is somewhere near to the West Coast Market.
It will probably take me a while to find another source of food crave...
