Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails....

Yummy Saturday!

It has been a very very very busy loooong weekend!
Let's talk about my tired Saturday 1st.

Took a cab to Paya Lebar MRT station to meet a mask buyer. She was rushing for work, so I had no choice but to meet her at that place early morning, 1015AM. I had nothing to do till 12PM, so I walked to City Plaza to shop. It was way too early and most of the shops weren't opened yet. But I saw alot of really pretty and cheap clothes.

Then took a train to Tiong Baru MRT. Meeting a bunch of food bloggers for lunch at Persimmon, Link Hotel. This is a really ulu boutique hotel hidden somewhere between Outram and Tiong Baru MRT station. I totally had no idea how to go there. Bobian, took cab again. But guess what, i boarded TWO cabs and none of the taxi uncle knew where the hell it was. Thankfully, the 3rd one drove me to the place safely.

I think Persimmon is very quiet usuall since it's a newly opened fusion restaurant. But with the 28 of us around on a Saturday afternoon, the place became very noisy. I have not seen anyone there before, it's just sound like those make-new-friends session!

But oh mine, they actually know about my food blog! Some of there were like, "I know your blog"..."Oh, so you are the owner of the only chinese food blog!"..."Oh! you posted your Hong Kong photos right!"...& there was even one guy said "You are the NTU blogger who has the chinese food blog!"

I'm like STUNNED!

But anyway, it was a happy and lively lunch though the food wasnt what I had expected. To me, I can accept the idea of fusion food, but it must comes with a style, not like anyhow mix machiam rojak. I think there are still rooms of improvements for the restaurant. Anw, there were still some good ones!


I just think this jelly is pretty. BUT it's way too hard.




This chicken rice salad is YUMMY! It's special! U are eating ang moh salad, with the chicken rice soy sauce plus chicken rice chilli, and boiled chicken with fried chicken rice! It's their specialty.




Group photo of our table.

Then after the lunch, went out with a few of the food bloggers to Chinatown Point to have yummy kopi! The shop was set up by another member of makan sutra forum. The texture is very smooth. it's called "Good Morning Nanyang!"

Then went off to meet Mummy to go Chunkfest at Fort Canning. Couldn't find anyone to go together, so asked mummy along. It was raining but it didnt dampen the spirits of ice cream lovers! the queue to buy the ice cream was damn long like a few kilometers, and mummy was trying to queue which i think will take TWO hours? But thankfully, i got a free scoop in the end! :)



Look at the crowd. Machiam free ice cream like that! oh mine! they even have a competition where you can form group of 4 and eat 20 scoops of ice creams with 20 different fillings etc and see who can finish in the shortest amt of time! and all the competitors were mainly BIG men! LOL

They even have small stalls such as:


Crystal Ball fortune telling!


and tarot reading! i think tarot scene in spore is v small. I noe her, she noe me! haha


Thanks for HUNGRYCOW's recommendation and introduction, I got a free scoop of the NEW FLAVOUR! THANK YOU BEN N JERRY! :)

Went to town for shopping. But i was really tired and my new Pretty Fit shoes are damn wet with soil liao. and i was damn full...

so just walk around, looking for fungie's xmas gift! haha. and dinner was at ajisen, which was very disappointing. the Ajisen at causeway point was MUCH MUCH BETTER than the one at Taka.



Wanted to go home after dinner, but saw Giordano having 40% sales and we went in to join in the fun! suibian bought 3 tshirts at 10 bucks each.

Then pop by Cotton On and Mummy began trying some tops and bought one.

I tried on 3 dresses from Cotton On and 1 dress from Forever21, Mummy said they looks pretty and wanted me to get them.



BUT I BOUGHT NOTHING AT ALL! :(
I am tired and I just wana go home!

Next post: Msia Kukup trip

I WANT TO GET A DLSR!

当两个人对爱情价值观不同,唯有互相迁就及体谅。
可是若走了那么久,发现不能再hold on,或许放手是最好的选择。
To Fungie:
不要难过,挥别了爱情,至少你还有友情的存在。:)
