Food tour with Twinny and Junliang

Song: Xiang Cao De Tian Kong by Shen Bai Se Er Ren Zu

I decided to blog so "immediately" is because Twinny was grumbling that why I am so detail about my previous post. Cause got new pretty girl in my blog, that's why I must leave good memory.

Today we went to Ichiban to redeem our freebies and also to spin the wheel which we might stand a chance to win an $80 voucher. So we spent only $7 plus dollar but quite full. All the food in front of us in the picture were free, even freebies can look sumptuous! Twinny was saying free food taste especially nice. (I think she forgotten what happened in Sex is Zero 2)

Ok. Let's focus on this picture above. Twinny don't even know how to eat, look at the chawamushi on the table. Then she gave that kind of look like as if she wasn't the one who dropped on the table. I know it's free, but still we shouldn't waste food.

Then after that, Junliang came over to PS to find meet us for dinner. He was suppose to join us for the dinner at Ichiban, but he was too tired then he slept till quite late. Then he asked me is the dinner at Ichiban going to be free, if it is then he is going to cab down. I told him just take train, don't think we will wait so long. After awhile, he told me he got $20 worth of coin he don't know how to spend, so he is going to cab down!

But when he arrived, we had already left Ichiban. So he was deciding between dinner at Swensen's or Ajitei. Since Ajitei had no Q at all, so we decide to dine there. He ate some pork cutlet rice then me and Twinny had the desert. The staffs were quite slow in serving JL's desert, so we keep calling the waitress. Twinny was saying "excuse me" twice to the waitress, but she totally didn't hear anything. So I told her she was being "excused" twice.

Anyway, we were given 5 desert spoon, so we had fun taking photos with it. But JL refuse to do so, using only his chopsticks. After the dinner, we went to shop around for my leather shoes for my Monday interview. Then we went over to city hall to meet Jon, Ming Kai and Mercy.

We had chocolateS at Max Brenner  @ Esplanade. Ok. Only I took photo. I ordered the Belgian waffle, then Twinny and Ming Kai ordered some Oreo chocolate drink which both of them complain very sweet. Junliang ordered some cook-your-own chocolate beverage which you will melt the chocolate to decide how sweet you want. Then the rest shared a chocolate fondue.

After awhile, Grace came over to join us. Then at the end, she and JL were asking each other to finish up the strawberry. Oh ya, and they were going to Genting or Bangkok next weekend. They were like damn happening. The trip was planned like a week ago and everyone is so on about it.
After the chocolateS, they were planning to go Cafe Del Mar which Twinny don't want to go so I accompanied her home. She was a bit lazy so we cabbed back to her house. Then when we alight from the cab, she was asking, "what if my Mum saw you?"

Then we went to the DEW GARDEN to have a short chat although it's like 11 plus. Halfway thru, the street lights went off. Then there's a couple there in the dark. Anyway the very 1st dark photo is not the couple, but some lousy camera skill of Twinny.

Past 2 weekends

I did not went to Bugis after the previous post. I meant the post where i predict I will go Bugis for the next 2 weekends. The 1st weekend I did not go is because I was having bad flu. SO that weekend I missed out the TVB stars who came down to Singapore.

So I stayed home for the whole weekend even though I was on leave which I am suppose to go out and enjoy myself.

Then the following saturday we were suppose to meet up for steamboat but Grace put me and Twinny aeroplane. So me and Twinny went to Vivocity instead. My intention of going Bugis for this weekend is because I wanted to catch Yoga Lin You Jia and Jade Liu Li Yang.

Every time when I meet Twinny at Vivocity, she would be late. So I went to find Jon and gang who were working at Vivo for some event. Then I found out Twinny's classmates were working on the same event also.

When I met up with Jon they all, I told them I was super bored at home so I decided to come down and find them. Then they were like thinking "Guoliang got so nice meh?" After awhile Twinny arrived then they found out the truth. Haha...

So we went for dinner with Twinny's classmates, Xiu Yi and Jason. Initially we wanted to go Marche but it was too crowded so we ended up at Fig and Olive, a Halal restaurant. The 3 of them were talking about their attachment, so I just sit there and listen. 

Then occasionally Xiu Yi will ask, "Are you feeling sianz?" Then I will give a "I am ok" reply. She keep on saying normally she is not as "crazy" as that day, but I think that remains to be seen.

Last night, I just finish watching 华丽なる一族/ Karei Naru Ichizoku. It's been a long time since I watch a Japanese drama. I also cannot remember which is the last Jap-drama that I completed. There are a few that I just watch half way here and there which includes 

萤之光/ Hotaru no Hikari, 交响情人梦/ Nodame Cantabile. Both the shows are romantic comedy whereas 华丽なる一族 is Human drama/Finance/Romance, a more serious type of drama.

Originally a novel by Yamazaki Toyoko, and later a 1974 movie, Karei naru Ichizoku depicts the conflicts within the Manpyo family, famous in Kansai's financial circles, amidst the tumultuous reorganization of the financial industry of the late 1960s.

This story was introduced to me by Junkai, one of my ex-campmate. Actually, he introduced the novel to me first. But since I am unable to get a copy of that, so I catch it on video. The lead actor of the show is Japanese heartthrob Takuya Kimura. I think he plays a major factor in why this show has very high viewership.

I would give this show a rating of 8 out of 10.

Recently is drama craze period. I am watching dramas from 3 different countries namely, Hong Kong, Japan and Taiwan.

HK:
I completed watching 野蠻奶奶大戰戈師奶/ Wars of in-laws II 2 weeks ago. Actually I didn't really catch the part 1 when it was shown on VV drama, just watch it occasionally when I am free. Then after watching the repeat on Channel 8, I decide to watch the part 2.

I think the part 2 seems nicer cause the lead characters are more loving and they enjoy each other's companion more than the part 1. Also part of the reason might be that,  the part 2 is in the modern era. But I think the role of the mother-in-law is better in part 1. Cause in part 1, she's the bad person all the way which makes the plot more explosive. This time round, occasionally she will try to be a mediator whereas in part 1 she's always trying to sow discord between her son and her daughter-in-law.

Then now I am watching 法證先鋒 II/ Forensic Heroes II. This time round, there are new characters added into the story, and only left 1 female lead. The part 1 has quite a bit of romance involved while the part 2 has lesser but more complicated relationships. The technical part is also more interesting this time round. I have yet to complete the show because they have yet to finish translating all the episodes to chinese when I last watch.

The other show that I am following faithfully is 通天幹探/ The Ultimate Crime Fighter. This is another police drama in which a lot of Hong Kong people loves. I have yet to complete watching the show so I cannot really give my comments. But i think 黎姿/ Gigi Lai has a make breakthrough in this show as she sacrifices her usual pretty looks for some nerdy role. The rest I shall comment when I have finish watching.
