Have you been to "Say Cheezecake"?
Its a cafe selling all sorts of cheesecake...
but guess what, the food is damn heavenly as well!!!
of their yummy food!!!
It's a real joy going thru their menu...
almost like a picture book!
NY cheesecake, Chicago cheesecakes, chocolaty, oreo ones,
fruity and citrusy ones,
you name it, you get it!
served in this big plate,
is cheesy tomato soup!!
I hate tomatos, but i swear i can get hooked on this soup!
The very appetising sour taste of the soup,
plus the fragrant grated cheese that you can chew on!
Sounds too healthy? Boring?
Thats where you're wrong!
It's one of those few salads that I'll finish in my life!
with sweet and juicy mango-like fruits,
crunchy walnuts,
plus a drizzle of citrusy, sour and tangy sauce..
I can gulp down a few bowls of these without feeling guilty!!!
Down with those places that uses fat-laden mayonnaise or salad cream
for their dressings!
There's fishes, prawns, mussels, chips....
All fresh and succulent!!!!
All Freshly fried and piping hot!
Prawns and fishes and mussels with rice,
covered with a blanket of thick and fluffy cheese,
with tomato paste to balance the heaviness of the cheese...
I can have heaps and heaps of this!
Of course must try their cheesecakes right!!!?
Feng's triple chocolate cheesecake!!
Very rich and smooth, with a generous topping of
chocolate dusting...
It comes with chocolate fudge sauce and condensed milk!!
Mmmmm....
I had the apple crumble cheesecake!!!
The citrusy apple balance off the richness of the cake in a nice way!!!
The cake is smooth,
and the top layer of it is sweet with the green apples on it!!
The apple sauce goes well with the cake too,
making it moist..
I dunno how to describe this further...
Try to order in advance k,
coz their cakes literally fly off the shelves...
especially those popular ones...
Time for us to digest our food!
I LURVE their tea set!!!
Transparent teacups and saucers!!!
How "english" and classy can these nice teacups be??
But i think they serve me chammomile or something liddat...
I dun realli drink chammomile....
But the tea is nice as well!
Finally,
we went to try out CANELE.
A tiny chocolaterie in Paragon...
Just look at the display shelves!
Rows of chocolates, cakes, pastries etc in it!
A sweetletz-addict 's haven!

Feng and I like flavours like caramel,
butterscotch, vanilla, nougats, toffee, hazelnuts etc..
And this dessert is a combination of the above!
with butterscotch or nougat ice cream,
topped with butter caramel sauce, crunchy butterscotch "biscuits",
and sprinkled with icing sugar snow!!
You can taste heaven in this dessert!

We went to eat Thai food ..
at this supposedly rowdy place near
golden landmark hotel..
In fact, they brought us there!
For cindy, as this is her fave Thai food!
Its Thai Fried Kway Tiao..
With raw beansprout and lime..
Rara kept eating it with sugar and peanuts!
Looks bland but real flavourful!
The green curry chicken is quite spicy and homecooked!
Plus the chicken are boneless!
Look at the feast!
There's also seafood Tom Yam soup,
stuffed chicken with prawn meat,
and pork and basil rice..
All of them tastes great!
And the price is reasonable too!
Those arabian water pipe smoke...
We chose the grape plus mint flavours...
To get ourselves "prepared" for the supposedly "heavy" sheesha,
we all had a stick of the real cigs!
In the end, it tastes lke nothing,
other than air plus a sweet sweet aroma...
we decided to move to the indoors...
The walls are in red and orange...
making the place look real dim and cosy...
We have to sit on the carpeted floor,
with cushions and all...
When the 4 of us went in, and saw people half lying on the cushions
smoking through the pipes, it really looks like an opium house!
blowing out gallons of smoke!
We can also see people that looks as if they are drunk..
but in fact, they are high from smoking sheesha!
Like playing a musical instrument like recorder...
not in an obscene manner, mind you!
And thus, throughout the night,
we passed the sheesha pipes around the 4 of us...
happily smoking, especially in the indoors...
as the charcoals are hotter, and the sheesha smoke gets "heavier"..
We got abit giddy alreadi...
its finally taking effect!
The chinese one, i mean...
And thus, I had an make shift birthday cake!!!
It's actually like butter sponge cake, with a crispy top layer of caramelised sugar!!
And 3 people singing a birthday song for me!
A most funny way to spend a "birthday"!
her darling rara,
and the strawberri gang leader, Feng...

It's my birthday!!
On the 5th june..
( 1 day before the result release date)
How can i enjoy in peace..?
But since i'm a big girl alreadi, i still go to work!
Magdalene bought me oreo cheesecake from Anderson's!
She wanted to buy me a meal, but ive got no appetite...
Should have asked for birdnest for dessert instead...
Feng bought his birthday girl for a meal..
teriyaki fish, appetiser, chawanmushi, rice and miso soup..
Real yummy but damn feeling!!
After the rich oreo cheesecake earlier..
Grilled duck with leeds
with special sauce, on vanilla leaf..
It's a specialty from Kyoto..
(My fave town in Japan..)
You know why...
Feng's drink, Mai Tai..
Well, we didnt order it..
the bartender decides for Feng..
The sibei "dai-sai" birthday girl...
had a yummy chocolatier...
actually i asked for chocolate martini..
but the bartender mixed this for me...with all my fave ingredients!
Theres baileys, chocolate ice cream, martini or similar stuffs..
Sweet, chocolaty, yet the alcohols strong...
Most importantly, its pretty!!
He came back with only big candles...
so we break it into half,
to make it look small...
The moment, with my birthday cake before me,
is so sacred and precious to me...
"I love the way you move, and talk,
and smile...
I love the way you think, and laugh,
and kiss...."
F1 racetracks!!!
Anyway, those are BUTTERSCOTCH shooters!!!
Real special n delicate...
Ive never tasted them in my life!
Erm...did anyone whisper to him that I like butterscotch...?
and how did he know that Feng likes F1..?
This is called affinity..
especially when he makes us drinks that we like...(w/o us ordering)
and gave us nice shots on nice shooter glasses...
on my birthday...
Coz its in pink, it can't be bought off the shelves..
Feng got to order it in advance...
Feng still make sure I always get the best ones I lay eyes on...
Like the digital cam, ipod etc..
must be coz of the pink...
Nearly got a heart attack when Feng gave it to me..
It's like..i never expected him to get it for me..
I'm happily using my birthday watch,
and birthday hp..
and birthday earrings....
THANKS Feng!!
(You give me the High-life!!)
I really enjoy my Birthday!!!
Also, ppl who know mi knows I'm horribly hopeless with figures...
Especially STATS!!!
(Which i thought it's a bonus if i pass,
and a miracle if I get a credit.)
But...I got a Dist!!!
(Miracles do come true!!! Coz Its my Birthday wish that i pass it!!)
With love from Feng, my parents, friends, colleages..
on my birthday...
What more can i ask for..??
