Operating Hours:
Daily: 11.30am - 10.30pm


Tel: 6336 6696






















the setting
it seems like a rather well-known place
because the time we went there
it's ard 3
n at this kind of timing
most of the seats behind us are occupied
late lunch, or high tea?
haha!


















Fried prawn Dumplings with salad sauce




serves with prawn salad
very crisp on the outside
n the prawns are very fresh
















Steamed Prawn dumplings





not one of the best i've eaten so far
the skin was not very smooth, and can be thiner
but the sweetness of the prawns linger in the mouth









Steamed Chives Dumplings




not too bad!
if u hate chives, i recommend u skip this
as u can see, it is filled up with chives
but the amazing thing was u hardly taste the veggy-fied taste!
















Steamed "xiao long bao"





i think the ones at ding tai feng is better =)
i thought i seems to taste the meaty taste, which i dont really fancy
















Steamed BBQ pork bun






how can one not eat such traditional food at a dim sum place
the simpler it is
the harder it is to perfect it!
just one word
awesome =)


















Steamed "Siew Mai" w/mushroom





i aint siew mai fan
but i think there's are good
the wanton skin is not made very sticky
n the filling was made with generous number of prawns compared to meat!












Rice noodle w/shripms






one of my must eat!
this place sure didnt disappoint me





















Baked Mini egg tarts




i swear it melts in your mouth
it is so soft that i gently press the egg tarts
n u can see the cracklines
if u love eggy egg tarts
u will bound to beg for more here!




















the lunch date - lionel









25-year-old Wes was the most disaffected, cube-dwelling drone the planet had ever known. His boss chewed him out hourly, his girlfriend ignored him routinely and his life plodded on interminably. Everyone was certain this disengaged slacker would amount to nothing. There was little else for Wes to do but wile away the days and die in his slow, clock-punching rut. Until he met a woman named Fox. After his estranged father is murdered, the deadly sexy Fox recruits Wes into the Fraternity, a secret society that trains Wes to avenge his dad's death by unlocking his dormant powers. As she teaches him how to develop lightning-quick reflexes and phenomenal agility, Wes discovers this team lives by an ancient, unbreakable code: carry out the death orders given by fate itself. With wickedly brilliant tutors--including the Fraternity's enigmatic leader, Sloan--Wes grows to enjoy all the strength he ever wanted. But, slowly, he begins to realize there is more to his dangerous associates than meets the eye. And as he wavers between newfound heroism and vengeance, Wes will come to learn what no one could ever teach him: he alone controls his destiny.



i give this show 4.5/5
actually 4 la
let me explain
the nerdy accountant shut us up for y he was given this role when he actually strips
oh god! i like his body la
teeheehee
that's y they earn another 0.5
i could have given it 5/5
but because angelina jolie died =(
if im the director
i would make the nerdy accountant do his bullet-curve-stunt to shot the bullet away from angelina jolie
so that she dont have to die
n
she got a sexy back, plus butt!
wahahaha!
catch it, the story line
i give it full marks









headed to amk - jubilee's bubble tea hut
as we're too full to have dinner after the lunch
n we didnt realise we've actually spent nearly 3 hours there!


















yest's ballet class was freakingly crowded
totally number of students : 40
can u believe it!!!
having at 28 is already a lil packed
i keep kicking ian
hahaha!
n we became very aware of one another
as we're standing so close together
it's like we keep looking at the mirror
so that i will not kick his hands
n he will not kick me
but it was nice to see my grade 8(s)
though not all were here






went night jogging on monday
there's this "uncle"
wearing tee shirt, berms n slippers
strapped on a waist pouch seating at the benches
then i started running
n he started running too
i dont believe he came there to jog in such "jogging attire" la!
half a round, he stopped n had no stamina
then i did my second round
when i jogged past him
he will start to jog also
but he will still stopped halfway panting
then i think he gave up, sat on the benches
after 5 round
i went to do my sit ups
n he "moved" from the benches

then another guy came over

the 10pm massage session






headed down to dempsey road at 10 in the night


















i was in the i-am-gonna-fall-asleep-mood
plus the lovely breeze
makes one wants to sleep even more











































the entrance of spa @ esprit
































opt for the muddy murky stone massage - 90 mins $220

warm hungarian mud stone is the key in this treat. Nourishing, detoxifying is slathered on before you are padded off with a cool flower essence. Simultaneously, your scalp, face and neck enjoy an acupressure massage.















this is rather similar to the hot stone massage
the only difference is they uses mud
which after washing off
really leaves your skin so damn smooth la!
good for people who has pimple at the back
because the mud with the hot stone
will improve blood circulation
n also the mud acts like a scrub
they have very very fine minerals















after mud was apply, they uses the hot stone to massage the body
i was wrapped up with the towel
n they added a warm pad on top of me
i guess is to dry up the mud
so that the body can absorb the minerals
after all the dead cells scrub off,
im ready for some solid tanning this weekend =)


Marie Digby - Say It Again




The thing about love
Is i never saw it coming
It kinda crept up and took me by surprise
And now there’s a voice inside my heart that’s got me wondering
Is this true, i want to hear it one more time

Move in a little closer
Take it to a whisper
Just a little louder

Say it again for me
Cuz i love the way it feels when you are telling me that i’m
The only one who blows your mind
Say it again for me
It’s like the whole world stops to listen
When you tell me you’re in love
Say it again

Thing about you is you know just how to get me
You talk about us like there’s no end in sight
The thing about me is that i really want to let you
Open that door and walk into my life

Move in a little closer
Take it to a whisper
Just a little louder

Say it again for me
Cuz i love the way it feels when you are telling me that i’m
The only one who blows your mind
Say it again for me
It’s like the whole world stops to listen
When you tell me you’re in love

And it feels like it’s the first time
That anybody's ever brought the sun without the rain
And never in my whole life
Have I heard words as beautiful as when you say my name

Say it again for me
Cuz i love the way it feels when you are telling me that i’m
The only one who blows your mind
Say it again for me
It’s like the whole world stops to listen
When you tell me you’re in love
Say it again (x9)

When you tell me you’re in love…
Say it again

Ohhh...Ohhhhhh

the one man show



my new sandals i bought online =)
but the colours are no longer available online
i got it in blue n white ^ ^









ive fixed up my drawer/shelf
with the strength of me, myself & i =)
let the builder show u the process of fixing it
(i'm so proud to say im a student of the construction industry!)













1st step
u add in the 'jointing's into the side panels
this is for jointing the side panels into the base panel



















then u join the side panels into the base panels
which would give you the "C" shape of the shelf already











3rd step
fix the jointings (JTGS in short) to the side support











then fix them into the base










as u can see
the original "C" shaped has additional side bars which will help strengthen the whole framing

(i seriously think im back at poly, talking about construction, the topic which is dislike by most due to the intensive drawings and detailing)











5th step
again, fix the jointings to all the exposed panels
so that u can join up the whole framing into e rectangular shaped shelf










tada~
this is the outline of the shelf already
time check: 15 mins =)











as the whole framing is still very fragile
screws are inserted to tighten the framework











for the drawers to be in operation
guide rails are fixed onto the side of the shelf













secure the guide rails with nails into the wood framing











n this is what u get
if u choose a bigger box
lesser guide rails will be screw on
so that depends the dimensions of the boxes u want to use









n
this is the end product
time check: 25 mins
*pat on my back
im watching the channel 8 tv series while fixing
this goes to show
we, women, can really multi task
teeheehee =)





*on a side note
im very pissed with my parents for throwing away the 4 bouquets of dried flowers in my room!



*hope sharon darling get well soon too
n joyce sweetheart is back in singapore!
n sweet's (hazel) neh neh pok bf (clyve)ask her to buy cosmetic -.-"
so im accompanying her for cosmetic shopping one of these days!
