After so many weeks of Japanese food,
we finally had a taste of chinese food today!
We went to the dessert stall for some traditional chinese desserts!
My fave: Egg custard with rock sugar..
Smooth, cooling creamy custard with a tinge of sweetness in it!
I believe it's good for health and the complexion too!
How i wish i get to know the recipe!Then I'll cook it every other day at home!
So our skin would be fair fair smooth smooth like the custard!!!
I suppose double boiled papaya with hashima work as well too..
But I've never eaten that before..i hate fruits!!!
Feng had the almond paste!
Oooh i love almonds!
Not the nuts, but the tofu version!

Look at this!
It looks real smooth right!
But Feng don't realli like it..
He says that it tastes too "peanut-ish"
I agree with him...
Would be great if there's more almond taste to it..

We went to the soup restaurant at suntec city..
Although we are real "foodies",
somehow, we've never been to the soup restaurant before!

Something i don't fancy about chinese restaurants:
Once you are seated, they'll start serving lil dishes that you might not like..
E.g. stewed peanuts or pickles..
Then they'll charge you for it later...

I kinda like the 'martial-arts era' looking window!
I wet my finger and attempted to poke a hole thru it!
Blow some poisonous gas into the hole so that the people inside will be poisoned!
wahaha!
Thats for watching so much silly drama serials!

Feng says the purpose of bringing me here is due to this dish..
The Samsui Ginger Chicken!
The menu says they have preserved this form of cooking from the samsui women..
The chicken is soft and deboned..
well marinated and goes real well with the ginger!
Tastes quite home-cooked as well!

Sambal Kang Kong!
This simple dish tastes real fragrant here!
I guess it must be due to the chilli paste..
you will enjoy your rice soo much with this gravy!

Oh! The Samsui chicken comes with a plate of lettuce!
Initially i thought eating the chicken by itself would be nicer..
But Feng wrap one for mi, with the ginger paste n chicken inside...
And...the taste is much nicer!
It must be due to the contrast of their textures!
Crispy lettuce, with very soft meat!
You've got to try it!

We don't want to start dinner till the last dish was served!

The tofu prawn!!!
This dish tastes HEAVENLY!!
The sauce is exactly the same as "chilli-crab" gravy!
You know, the thickened gravy thats a lil sweet, with crab taste in it?

And now, it's time for dinner!!!

Feng enjoyed everything..
except that the tofu prawn gravy is a lil sweet for his taste...
But the big, juicy prawns are a plus-point of this dish!

The serving looks normal, but in actual fact,
we were sooo full we can't walk!!!
Hmm..let mi look around now while resting...
look at this cherry blossom tree!
It caught my attention coz....yes, you got it..
it's in pink!

The best thing thats good for digestion, yet, tastes yummy is of coz...
tea!
We had 2 pots of chrysanthemum tea!

We enjoy the dinner alot!
Feng wanted to order the venison meat initially, but i thought we might be over-eating..
It's a good thing we didnt order it!
Or our clothes might burst!
But you know what?
We went to the Cafe Cartel a few hours later and had another MEAL..
we just couldnt control our appetite...
Our expanding waistelines.....
sobz!!!!

We used to frequent this bubble tea place at beach road..
it sells vegetarian food as well..
It reminds me of the time when Feng and I just got together,
we went to a bubble tea chain with the same name
at the old marina square before the renovation..
Time reali flies, lookin at the new shopping mall now..
not a trace of the past..U must have heard of it!
"Lao Di Fang"
It's not under the famous bubble-tea chain years ago..
In fact, the owner of the chain was once a worker from this original one..
and, derive the name as well when he started his own biz..

Look at the surroundings..
Its so homely and cosy..
plus the dim lightings..
not forgetting the friendliness of the server/owner,
who looks like a monk..hehe

We'll eat this fortune cookies after the drinks!

These yummy fries are sooo crispy and delicious and burning hot!
And obviously, they are healtier since they are fried in veg oil!
They sprinkled some chilli powder on the fries as well!

Isn't this nice?
Warm honey milk tea!
I always believe that honey and milk are good for health..
plus its mixed with tea--my fave beverage,
in a nice dispenser, no less..
I enjoy every sip of it!
By the way, its quite filling you know?

Feng loves his ice honey red tea..
though he used to order the peppermint ones..

Now!
Time for the fortune cookies!
Its funny how ppl look forward to the message so much..
knowing that they are going to turn out positive..

"You will be fortunate in everything you
put your hands to.."
I certainly hope so..
but im more interested in the 4 numbers..
I bought it for consecutive weeks..
and when i finally stop buying,
it strikes..nb

Well, but nothing cheers me up more than a good cup of tea..
with Feng by my side to enjoy it with me..
Shall we go there again this weekend, laogong?

Feng suggests that we have dinner at the Esplanade..
We decided to have Japanese food,
since i'm not hungry..We have a hidden corner to ourselves!
Feng said it's the cosiest corner in the whole restaurant!
With comfy cushions and all!

This is my dinner!
The tsuki sashimi platter!
All by myself.. Feng dun eat sashimi...
Yeah!!!

Yum yum!
Thats the salmon, tuna, octopus and swordfish!!!
What a colourful platter!

Laogong ordered the Ebi tempura..
Crispy, fat prawns!
A temptation too hard to resist!
I lurve the dip as well..
a very light soya sauce with garlics in it!

Back to my sashimi, i enjoyed the salmon the most..
nope..the swordfish...
or rather, the tuna...
wait! maybe the octopus...

Feng had the oyakodon..
the eggs mixed with rice and broth is in the right consistency..
unlike Sakae's, which is way too soupy..

To me, Feng can be considered a fussy eater..
he eats almost everything, however,
he demands quality..
He always tell me he dun mind paying more,
but the quality of the food must match up to it..

Itadakimasu!!!
Time for dinner!!
We never fail to say
"Laogong/Laopo Chi Fan"
before each meal..

Look at the tentacles!
Munch Munch Munch...

After a yummie dinner,
we went to Harry's bar..
sorry for the blur pictures,
its quite dim in there!

I ordered a lychee martini..
I lurve martini glasses..
so dainty..

As usual,
my man got to have his good'o cup
of Espresso.
Neat.
No sugar or creamer.
I'll have a sip and go "eee..."
and my face crumples..

I'd better stick to my ladies' drink..
I lurve the lychee soaked with the liquor..
a sweet ending to the finishing drop of martini..

Since I'm wearing my corset,
it's a miracle it hasn't burst yet,
considering the subway sandwich, cheezels and Mcnuggets
that I've eaten earlier at K-box before dinner..
Maybe this suggests that I could have an extra slice of cake..
and maybe with a scoop of ice cream next to it...?

This is heaven!
Chocolate Au Gateau,
with vanilla ice cream and hot fudge sauce..
If you've eaten the Booboo cake from NYDC,
and swear by it just like me,
this come a close 2nd..

Feng made a heart for me out of the strawberry..
ooh thats sweet of you!!
Even CINDY says so....
Well, Feng, it would be sweeter of you if i can make a little request?

I WAN THE BOOBOO CAKE FOR MY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!
STRICTLY NO OTHER CAKES!!!!

Feng surprised me on Saturday with a gift!
Great..I'd have another fragrance added to my collection from Feng!My new scent is the limited edition "Baby Doll" From
Y.S.L.

Its the "Pom Poms Collector" Range!
Comes together with this Y.S.L. Keychain..

Spray the perfume on the pom poms,
put them in your bag,
and your bag will smell heavenly!

The "Miss Dior Cherie" fragrance from Dior is one of
his X'mas present for me 2 years ago..
I lurve this scent the moment i sniff it!
It's quite heavy, so it's perfect
for special occasions or dinners in the evenings..

Dolly Girl from "Anna Sui" is real light and sweet!
It smells really nice after the scent has "settled down" throughout the day!
The scent on the right is from Marks & Spencer..
with the mix of floral, fruits and spices..
the reason for the musky,woody scent!

Boss Woman, Shimmers Edition!
Leave sparkles on my skin when I spray it!
I lurve wearing it to pubs!
Feng loves the scent soo much!
Apparently, a taxi uncle was so attracted by the scent that he kept
telling me the scent smells great!
As for the Burberrys one on the right,
I gave it to my mum already..

My "Escada Collections"
The blue-cap one, "Pacific Paradise"is real sweet, like a sweet potion!
In fact, lots of people asked me about this scent when I'm wearing it!
The scent "Magnetic Beat" is sweet as well, but slightly heavier..

The "Game" range from Davidoff smells playful and fresh,
with a tinge of sweetness in it!
I'll wear it to Sentosa!
The purple one is "Conexxion" from Lancome.
It has a real distinguished smell to it, and its real lasting as well!

My 2 empty bottles..
Issey Miyake smells strong and sophisticated!
I think its real suitable for the working class!
I wore it when I worked in an office last time..
As for the one on the right, Kenzo,
its quite light and refreshing!

The 3 fragrances that I got tired of already!
Hugo Boss Woman - Used to spray the room after smoking..
Iceberg Twice - To spray my wardrobes
CK Eternity - To spray the washrooms,
ready to be disposed of when it expires..

The fragrance collections from the Pink Pandora Box!

Come, I'll show you
another category of my beauty stash.....
The Chanel foundation is way better than the pressed powder!
(smaller compact one)
The silver one is from M.A.C's.
Some ppl refrain from it, thinking that MAC started off
with the intention of stage make-up, which might clog pores..
As for concealers,
the Maybelline one is better than the Za's.

Latest Collection of loose powder is from "Kose"..
Feng gave it to me on Thursday!
It's called crystal sky..
The Missha one leaves your skin real matte,
and the red earth one leaves little shimmers all over my face!

I swear by Maybelline's mascara!!
esspecially turbo boost!
The cheapest, yet most effective for those lustrous lashes!
Liquid liners are best served with firm brushes!
Bourjouis one works well..
their Kohl pencils are real black too, but, it smudges!
The 2 eyeliners,gold and blue are from M.A.C too..
I seldom use them anymore..

My 24K gold limited edition
eyelash curler from Shu Uemura!
Feng's surprise as well!
It doesnt give you the 90 degree unnatural curl,
but a natural one!

Light weight liquid foundations!
Allow your skin to breathe!

Some eye colours from the pandoras box!
The latest one is from Kose as well, from Feng,
together with the loose powder on top..
Strangely, they are mostly nude colours!
The lil glitter compact on the right is real nice
when you apply sparingly on the lids with liquid liners!!!
(For pubs only)

Considering that I seldom apply lip colours,
i still have so many of it!
The 2 lip balms-- i bought it for their yummie flavours..cherry n rose
The clinique lipstick looks dark, but its actually lilac with light sparkles!
The white one from Za is a sweet pink..

I only use 2 out of the 4 colours..
The lighter 2..
Apparently, some ppl sre fascinated bout bright bright lip colours!
Not me, definitely..

The Clinique one is a real light pink with abit of glitter dust!
The shimmer wip and blusher from e.l.f
are purchased together with Saph thru internet shopping..
Real Cheap and nice!

This 2 nail colours from estee lauders are for esthetic purposes only..
I dun use them at all..
Their existence is solely due to their pretty packaging..

My Make-Up Box!
Looks real Jap right!!

Come and take a closer look!
"Hatsumomo"
The geisha from the book,
"Memoirs of a geisha"..
Real fun having a "Geisha make-up box!"

Those above are not the entire collection of the beauty stashes in the pandora's box!

I have wayyyyyy too much make up that I don't use..
Feng lends a hand by buying them for me..
A laogong who knows how to buy make-up for me is real good.
Though I only use 20% of my entire collection,
seeing the other 80% lying around makes me happy too...
GIRLS!!!
