Tuesday, 23rd Dec



Buffet @ Penang Place
At International business park (Jurong)





some christmas stuffings & turkey.
the super big spring rolls were delicious, i just couldn't stop at one.
and there were these fried stuff that we couldn't make out what they were. Not bad.
their famed CKT, which i find it overrated. it's spicy, so i didn't eat much.

some common finger food. curry chicken, fried chicken, vegetables, sweet & sour fishcake, and beef rendang (very hard & dry).


the show 'little nyonya' had triggered my cravings for kuihs, i find myself buying them every now and then.
esp kuih talam, my favourite :D
the kuih taitai here is nice too.

ice kachang

green bean soup, my favourite dish here.
stopped at the 2nd bowl as my stomach was very full alr.
it's extremely creamy, and it's not too sweet.
definitely better than the substandard ones you get at kopitiams.

Jo & I were displeased with this place.
It's kinda overpriced for the choices of food available.
As you can see, most of it are finger food.
But when you sum it all up, it makes you feel very full.
Not satisfied kind of full, though.

The usual cost is $23, but due to the christmas additions, which only consisted of roast chicken, christmas stuffings, and turkey ham, it was raised to $26+ per person.
Worthwhile

We cabbed to Bugis to alter Jo's pants, then walked to Haji Lane (MDS) to buy our christmas dresses.
Unlucky for us, it was a time where the sun was blazing with all it's might.
Very very hot, very very unhappy.
We headed home to put down our stuff & changed into casual clothes.

XWZ came to pick us up afterward.
Poor thing, he hadn't slept for so many hours.
We headed to Changi Clubhouse for BBQ :D

starting the fire

The fish was huge. 8 fishes, to be exact. But we only BBQ-ed ard 4-5 of it.

It was my first time eating Cow Belly satay, and I'm glad I did.
Initially, I had doubts about it as I was kinda put off by the name of it.
Cow stomach? Ewww...Not.

Was kinda bemused by the amount of franks they bought.
5-6 types altogether.
There were long ones, short ones, garlic-flavoured ones, cheese-filled ones and miniature chinese ones.
So many franks for what???
But I ate em' all anyway. Kinda sick of franks now.

BBQ-ing marshmallows. I luuuurve them. I stopped at around 8 pcs, due to my laziness.

We slacked till around 11pm then XWZ drove us home.
The whole journey we didn't talk much, as we were all bushed.
I notice I get tired real easily..
What's wrong with me nowadays...?

Had been able to satiate my thirst for TVB dramas this holiday.
I'm turning into a couch potato all over again, little wonder that I always feel so lethargic.

The Four 少年四大名捕 (completed)
Average case-solving show, with a sucky ending as all the couples didn't end up tgth.
Last One Standing 与敌同行 (completed)
A drama with a nice plot, perfect.
When Easterly Showers fall on the Sunny West 东山飘雨西关晴
Currently only at ep 10. So far, I find it not bad.
