Tuesday, September 15, 2009 10:45 PM

Arranged to meet up with MeiTin after work and as usual, meeting point @ Liang Court. We head down to the basement to have our nice nice cheap Jap food sold by Tampopo as mentioned the other time. And both me & my dear gal shared this black pork katsu don cost SGD 12 and thereafter ordered yummy Japanese light cheese cake cost SGD 5.80 to share too. Just a casual eating place but nice food can be found here and it wasn't that crowded too. So we can take our time to chit chat & enjoy our food. Here's our dinner:-

And during our dinner, passed my dear gal brochures which I had took a copy for her on Hokkaido trip details, look at her pictures, she was so happy & overjoyed when looking at the brochures and I guess she can't wait to be there, at the same time we were enjoying the yummy cheesecake.

And after our dinner, we went for some picture snapping as I brought my new camera stand along which will be of great use for our pictures snapping. Thank my Bi for this new "toy", coz he said since I like to take pictures, so he bought me this mini yet long & stretchable stand for better sharing snapping :) So thoughtful of my Bi.
And here's my camera stand bought @ Liang Court:-

And here's first picture with & without special effect set by the camera:-

And some other pictures we have taken, love the backround lights & etc =)

Had a great day with my dear gal & we both headed home therafter. More pictures next time =)

Weekend with my Dearie

Friday, September 11, 2009 11:56 PM

It's my 2nd lesson of Japanese intermediate 3 lesson today & thereafter, hubby came to pick me up to head to Liang Court for a simple lunch @ basement corner where Tampopo Japanese fooderies are. I had Una-don while Bi had Black Pork Katsu don and with that cost us S$22 which I find it reasonable & best of all the portion were huged & quality too. Opps!! Sorry guys, I forgotten to snap shot picture of it, however I will return again and will surely remember to snap picture of it. After our meal, I bought sliced of yummy green tea cake & cup of Starbucks coffee to share with my Bi. While enjoying these yummies, we were joyfully reading the free travel "Go Japan" magazine took from the JTB booth @ level one of Liang Court. Japan is such a nice travel area to go to & with the current flight promotion in ANA & SIA website, I am so tempted to book the tickets for next year & I am still contemplating whether to book or to hold & wait. May the Lord grant me wisdom to made a right decision which will enable us to have some savings for flying ther. Prayed hard!!

Meeting up @ ION Orchard

Tuesday, September 1, 2009 9:41 PM

It's been awhile since I last blog & now this is my first blog entry for the month of Sept. Sorry for the late posting my blog readers out there...catching up with lots of stuff!

Now here on 31st August, last day of the month, meet up with my Bestie, MeiTin finally at a change of location, which is @ ION Orchard. Both of us are simply Jap food lovers, we wanted very much to tried the Ramen shop @ AOBA Ramen shop @ Ion but it is always so long Q & so crowded so we ended up having Ramen @ basemant B4. Bowl of ramen for each of us just that she had an egg added while I had Negi(spring onion) added and that cost us about S#30++ after adding service charge & GST. We find it a bit expensive but Thank God the food was quite nice and beside ramen, we bought Peking Duck wrapped in omelette to shared and in that box of 5 pcs cost us S$6. So expensive!!! And was just so so, not worth the $$ I would say but doesn't matter, just a try out =)

As usual we like to chat after our meals so we ended up @ TCC next to Isetan Scotts for cup of coffee & Yogurt strawberry cake to share & chat over it. Was a great time each time we met up. And w/o fail, here's our pictures for the day:-
