it was suppose to be a birthday treat for ben
but he ended saying that he will treat me this time round
haha!










they serves 3 kinds of soup base
1. chicken broth
2. tom yum
3. herbal chicken




i chose the chicken broth which was really nice la!
the food were all dumped in before i can actually take individual pictures of them







we chose buffet over ala carte
n this place was pretty crowded to my amazement!



















ben himself owns a nikon D80 la
so it's like we both have cameras n are both busy snapping away



















these are all taken with my digi cam
let me show u what he's taken with his









 this is taken without his flash
n it makes my face damn skinny la!
(not good okay!)

















i like the colours when he uses the flash
it looks damn natural
but he didnt really like as he felt the pictures looked very white with the flash

















think his pictures looked damn arty farty la
but i really like the colours la!
it's so damn real lo










food was real good
like the dumplings tasted unique
the prawns were real sweet
the ingredients were fresh
the soup base was good




the only thing tt was not so good was the CS
we have to wait real long for the staffs to realise we were calling out for them
partly because they were almost full house on a normal thursday






went downstairs to tcc for some chilling
no desserts nor cake for miss denise this time
time of the month is causing too much backache n cramps tt im giving my favourite a missed yest =(
but, i still had my apple twist
teeheehee








ben's earl grey
he's of the only few tt i know that actually drinks tea
n he doesnt take coffee if he has a choice







miss denise's green apple twist
(credits to ben)

what makes u think denise is so arty farty to take such nice focused pictures la
hahaha







while seating n chatting
i realised tt i seems to see the same few ladies walking up n down the road a couple of times
n ben was telling me they were working
so i was thinking to myself, so late still working
then i saw some of them walking past arms in arms with ang mos
then i realised
what ben really meant by "they were working"
-.-"

n the most ridiculous thing was
we realised a couple of them were staring at me when they walked past
like wth la










arty farty pictures by ben, enjoy =)

























the black n white series
which are his favourites
n fyi
he aint any of those freelance photographer or what
he just own a cam for his own interest =)
n he doesnt really take photos of humans posing



























ballet tonight
loves =)
