Hrmm... I've been on an eating expedition every Sat, so much so that it has become ritualistic for me and my sis to hunt for 'good' food around Singapore. As usual, our plan to go to the Sungai Buloh (they spell it sungei here) Wetland reserve was cancelled, cos at the back of our minds, I think, we were thinking only of shopping, but the both of us refuse to admit it openly. Ah hehe. Anyways, we decided to eat outside the shopping complex this time and explored Liang Seah St. and lo and behold!, I stumbled upon Phins, a mid-range priced Steakhouse (as recommended by JS) Being fish lovers, both of us ordered the traditional and pan-fried (w sambal) fish and chips. Mine came with a baked jacket potato with sour cream. The fish and chips here is much better than that at Oysters, Fish and Chips near Clarke Quay. It's more value for money too (starting from $9.90 a plate, with salad too!) Yum... A few doors away is a desert shop. The pulut hitam and the red bean paste there are nice by Sg. standards ( I still think the red bean paste at Noodle House in Sungai Wang plaza is no 1) . Even bumped into an archi friend there! Small world...

Abstinence from shopping is as usual, totally impossible. Wasn't me who did most of the shopping though. Haha... thanks to my fickle mind. We even went to the national lib by Ken Yeang for fun. Think the air in there's a bit stuffy cos my nose got runny. Bit of a waste of space according to my sis. Hmm... My stand is that if the general public cannot fully appreciate a building, then it's not a total success. Anyway, for a building that's supposedly sustainable, seems to me like there's a lot of wastage going on. Perhaps the scale was not human enough... Well, whatever, just glad I got my lib card, at last! Weee.... lots of books are waiting for me!

Burp... if only there were more eating kakis* around... heee

* eating + paying kakis= free lunch/dinner (by the principle of econs, there's no such thing as a free lunch, but in return for a free lunch, you get excellent company! couldn't get any better right?)

Currently playing:



done reading Rule of Four and it pales in comparison with Angels and Demons. So much for the over-rating.
read '5 people you meet in heaven' too (rather insightful)... I'd still recommend Tuesdays with Morrie, albeit by the same author, it's something like how Da Vinci code surpasses Digital Fortress (both by Dan Brown)

Akan datang:
(think it's in the same spirit as Prozac Nation, but Coelho rocks!)
