long updateeeee....

first up!

30/6/09 : YIYAN's LAST DAY
(i'm super jealous)
so we went over to casual poet at chinatown to celebrate yan's last day. the place was really nice actually other than the fact that there wasn't any aircon : it can get quite warm and stuffy since its quite a walk from the mrt station.

BUTBUTBUT , the service there sucks tho. the speed and how they remain ignorant when they should have known how to gauge if there's enough ingredients to whip out the number of dishes we requested for. so it went like this,

we placed out orders for 6 chilli butter chicken rice bowls and some other stuff. and after they served the first bowl of chilli butter chicken, which was quite a long wait like 20mins and only ONE pathetic bowl of rice, calvin checked with them our orders again. they thought we ordered 4 chilli butter chicken rice bowl. so we thought nothing much of it and contiune enjoying our chats. then after another 15 mins, they brought up another 2 more bowls of the chilli butter chicken rice bowl. so since i thought the wait will be THAT long, i might as well head over to KOI to get my grass jelly milk tea before coming back for my dinner. so the 4 of us went down to buy our drinks. we took half an hour or so ?? and when we came back, only a few more dishes came!?!?!!?it was getting ridiculous. so after MORE waiting, weijie decided to go down to the kitchen to check why the 2 more bowls of chilli butter chicken isnt served yet ?? (fyi, it was like 9.30pm by then? and cecilia and i placed our orders at say 7.30?) and GUESS WHAT . their reply was ,

"sorry, there's no more chicken left. would you like to change your orders? "

that was a total WTH ?!?!?
>: [ >: [ >: [

firstly, you mean after cooking for SO long you dont even know how to gauge the amt of ingredients you need??they could have told us right at the beginning so that we can change our orders to suit what their kitchen has left with.
next, dont they even have the decency to inform us?!!? they wait for us to realise why there's 2 missing dishes to go up to them and ask?? what kind of service is this! we waited for TWO BLOODY HOURS just to hear that there's no more chicken left ?

they should be lucky there's KOI there. my grass jelly milk tea perked up my mood so i didnt flare up at them there. but cecilia was really fumming... her reply when she heard that there was no more chicken left was ,

"GO CATCH ONE AT THE FARM FOR ME NOW LA! "

HAHAHAHA. i think she rock.
so anw, its a nice place to go to for SMALL groups and i mean really small , say 2 person? cause they cant handle groups.
cause apparently according to yiyan, she said they forgot to get the BBQ ingredients for her BBQ that night ( it was SUPPOSED to be a BBQ event) thats why we ended up having rice bowls.

anw, yiyan still enjoyed herself i hope! here's all the pic. there's far too many. so i decided to just compile them into 2 collages.

next up !
4/6/09: medical checkup / meetup session with val!

i finally pulled myself out of bed on saturday to go for my medical checkup for uni enrolement. so there was this temperature taking station , and so i filled in the declaration form and took my temp everything was normal till i walked to the door of the clinic ,

"pls put on a mask. "

oO ? cause i was sniffing sniffing sniffing non stop. hahaha. its just normal morning sinus... everyone's so afraid of the H1N1 huh? hahas. anw, i put on the mask for like 5 mins and took it off. cause it was really uncomfortable and hard to breathe in ...

homed and then piano lesson as usual then off to meet val at vivo later in the afternoon!we havent seen each other since aug last year i think? hahas. just before A levels. she's flying off to brisbane on wednesday for a short holiday. how nice!

so we had early dinner at sushi tei (we wanted to beat the dinner crowd) , then walked ard before settling for our dessert session at Ben & Jerry's 8D
i LOVE B&J's cookie dough flavour! so shopped a lil more after that before heading home .

5/7/09: SUNDAY (:

metup with boy at sembawang to have yummy ji pa mian at the food court! its REALLY REALLY DAMN FRIGGING GOOD.

then we went to essensuals at the new orchard central next to somerset cause wk had to cut his hair... i dont really like the stylist there tho. he just cuts whatever he likes. unlike my super nice esther who cuts whatever i like! so as usual, wk came out looking like a disaster - chao-ah-beng. and so not worth la his hair cut... i can cut my hair twice for that amt.
the point is. just dont ever cut there. HAHA.

so we went shopping after which at mango since i wanted to utilise my voucher. got a pair of jeans and jacket ((:

then it was to Minori at UE square for superb jap buffet!! i had like 3 to 4 servings of salmon sashimi itself. 8D SHIOK!

but it was quite funny when i ordered tako yaki. i thought their one serving was 3 balls? it turned out to be just ONE pathetic ball. hahaha.
