This is why Im fat

After visiting Haji lane the other day, Junyi and I went to Food For Thought for dinner. Ive been reading too much reviews (my hobby, really) and hearing one too many positive comments about the little cafe. They are famous for its old fashion red velvet cake which is apparently very popular in New York city and Ive been secretly wanting it as my birthday cake for the past 2 years but of cos no one got it for me since its a SECRET......

Anyway Food For Thought gives part of their profit to charity to help the underprivileged kids. Like sponsoring their tuition fees, providing clean water etc etc. Sounds great right? You get to enjoy your food AND help charity at the same time. Awesome ~~~

Almost everyone is raving about that place and so after making many MANY wrong turns and getting really irritated with each other, we finally reached the place!





Warm and homely cafe ~~


Pumpkin soup. Ive always loved anything with pumpkin but this just tasted TOTALLY BLAND.....


Pesto chicken pasta. I LOVE pesto but man... it was BLAND BLAND BLAND VERY BLAND!!! The salad which came by the side was much tastier than the pasta but also not nice to eat....


Junyi's bratwurst sandwich. It was just filled with sausages and some kind of sauce which doesnt look appetising at all....

WHAT A HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT. Had no mood to even try their desserts after that. Everything just tasted so cheap and BLAND (how many times have I used that word already?) Walked out and told myself "ITS FOR CHARITY!" Ok..... if Im EVER gonna step back into that cafe, it would be soley for their red velvet cake. Well well, brownie points for having free flow of tap water though hahahha.

Sunday brunch with my mum and sister at Wild Honey today. Waited MORE than an hour for our seats but it was worth it! Pleasant place which serves all-day breakfast in different countries' styles. From english to japanese to italian to mexican and the list goes on!!!


Mandarin wilderness mocktail. Its raspberry, mandarin and honey ice blended. First few sips tasted really nice cos of the honey drizzled on top and I liked the distinctive mandarin taste. And it wasnt too sweet! Just nice. I hate drinks that are overly sweet.

See the donut behind? Its filled with raspberry jelly and coated with sugar and cinnamon. Everyone should stop eating J-Co or whatever donut chain they have here cos its BULLSHIT. This donut beats it all HANDS DOWN. You want the real deal? Krispy Kremes is IT. Im dying for them to set up an outlet in sg!!!! I refuse to eat JCO cos I tried them once last time and it honestly SUCKED.


Look at my teeny weeny eyes. I was shagged out.


Mum's Tunisian brekkie. Tomato stew in a sizzling pan of eggs and chorizo sausages, served with thick toasted bread, bursting with flavour! I liked it but my mum didnt :( She said it tasted really cheap :(


My sister's Scandinavian brekkie. Grilled Norwegian salmon fillet, green asparagus and slightly burnt potato rosti tasted perfect altogether.


I have this craze for Eggs Benedict and set my mind on having the European styled breakfast even before stepping into the place hehehe. Poached eggs wrapped in strips of prosciutto ham, bedded on sauteed field mushrooms and fluffy country toast. The combination was SO GOOD especially when I poked through the eggs and the yolks were all runny! Swiped my toast through the yellow yolks and MAMA MIA! Very yummy. HOWEVERRRR, 6th Avenue still serves the best eggs benny to me. Somewhere along Old Brown Shoe. Really damn nice cos of Hollandaise sauce and the blueberry milkshake is yummmzz!!! TOTALLY TO-DIE-FOR.

Would definitely go back to try another breakfast style and their pan-fried GOAT CHEESE salad! Yes, GOAT CHEESE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Slurp slurp slurp!

Madam Saigon for dinner with my dad a few days back. I can NEVER get enough of good vietnamese food.




Had my usual PHO (will never miss out on that!!!), assorted meat skewers barbecued to PERFECTION - soft tender and SUPER JUICY, 3 different types of salad, vietnamese springroll and heres something new that we decided to try... Sugar cane prawn! Its minced prawn on jumbo sugar cane sticks. Like instead of using satay sticks they used sugar cane! Doesnt look nice but its damn fragrant! I LIKE.

I dont get why the restaurant is always soooo empty when they serve really awesome food. Everyone should go try!!!!! Its at Millenia Walk :)



Crystal jade with mummy. Had the normal and average chinese food but this is my FAVOURITE dish there. Chinese spinach with century eggs, salted eggs and normal eggs. Hhahaha so many eggs thats why I love it heheheheh.

:D :D

VERY OVERDUED

Inquizzy at Zirca ..... I dont understand the big hoo-ha about him. Yeah hes pretty good but very inconsistent? He can be GREAT at times but the starting at Zirca was kinda rough. Always spinning the same old electro songs but then again, if he doesnt do that, no one will like him right?! Hhahah.


Sherri mindy puiyee!


NEOOOOOO


Puiyeee!





















Gilbert's birthday at Neverland and NEVER am I going back there again!!!!! Firstly, its a thai pub. Ok so I thought I would give myself some exposure to the thai scene here in Singapore cos Ive never been into one. Secondly, Ive always thought that all thai music or anything related to thai(land) has a high possibility of it being pirated. Sounds bad but I mean, its kinda true right?! Honestly the music played at Neverland was pretty good but any normal human being with ears could tell that the sound quality was obviously not very good. (OR was it just my mind telling me that it could be pirated?! Haha) Ok and last but not least, THEYVE GOT SLUTS! I get the point that all guys LOVE women and you'd definitely love a place to party with a higher ratio of girls. But I wouldnt label someone a SLUT unless she really is one and when I say slut, it means that you either fuck around with guys or basically just throw yourself to guys for money and/or pleasure la up to you, without having REAL LOVE involved. JUST LIKE PROSTITUDES. You know those tv shows where the men visits ktv pubs secretly behind their wives/girlfriends' backs and while drinking they have girls next to them??? Playing 5-10 with them, flirting, rubbing their thighs, holding their waists.... etc etc. YEAH NEVERLAND WAS EXACTLY LIKE THAT.

Almost everyone there had a girl to accompany them. You know if the girls were fucking hot or sexy, it wouldnt be that bad but THEY ALL LOOKED LIKE FUCKING TRANNYS! The guy next to me even squeezed the slut's boobs RIGHT INFRONT OF MY EYES. WHAT THE FUCK!!!!! GET A ROOM ALREADY! I absolutely CANNOT stand such disgusting acts!!!!!! Ok Ive seen worse in the clubs but Neverland is just HORRID!!!!!!

I was seriously VERY disturbed by everyone over there and decided to leave early with Junyi. Went home and texted him a 20page long sms. Yeah that was how ANNOYED I felt. You may think that Im not open-minded but for all I care, I CANNOT stand guys who behave that way. Getting a random girl and touching her all over. I HATE GUYS LIKE THAT!!!!!!! Fuckers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ZZZZZZ aiya anyway........... a few pics cos I was angsty the entire night.







MASSIVE amount of drinks. Bottles, beer towers, wine etc etc


Birthday boy!


Birthday boy with TRANNY-LOOKING-SLUT.

OK LAZY TO POST ALR.

Written in the stars

Went to Everything With Fries 3 times in 1.5 weeks! Not that the food is THAT fantastic but the cafe just opened its 2nd outlet at Holland & we're always hanging out at Holland so ~~ yeah. Read some food reviews online and 99% of it has positive feedbacks on the cafe, especially on how tasty the fries are BUT IT IS HONESTLY OVERRATED!!! I think people are just mad over that place cos firstly, its new, and secondly, they serve fries in 5 different seasonings cos almost everyone are crazy over shaker fries right? Tried all 5 flavours already and it sucks to say this but Macs serve better fries!!! But so unhealthy.......




One egg soup. Its chicken broth with fried egg white on top? Quite yummy!


Sourcream & onion in straight cut!


Nat's breaded salmon with salt & vinegar shoestring!


Pork cutlet sandwich with baby ceasar and sourcream shoestring!


Nutella mille crepe! Its 20layers of crepe stacked into a cake. Yum!


Pear tart. HORRIBLE. Ive come to a conclusion that any dessert which contains pear sucks!


The first trip was with Nat, QY and JY! My face so disgustingggggg but it was the only picture!


This was supper with JY. Skinny wings! Doesnt look that appetising but its not bad. Brekos next door serve better though!


Warm nutella tart with vanilla ice cream! OK THIS IS THE BEST THING THERE!!! Must try!


Ok enough of food! This was Zouk with the barker entourage ~~
They were having some Diesel event at Velvet and coincidentally Juffrie was the photographer for them! So the theme of the event is BE STUPID and basically Juff has to go around taking photos of people being stupid of cos! Winner gets 100bucks Diesel vouchers!




AND YES! WE WON THE 100BUX! JUST BY TAKING THIS STUPID PHOTO! HAHAHAHA. But it was farrrrking grosss!!!!! I just couldnt stop laughing man seriously. Totally grossed out yet weirdly hilarious. Whats with the fucking drain!??! Why cant they just invest in proper urinals (sp?) or something? I even looked INTO the drain and saw a mixture of pee + puke WHAT THE FUCK WAS I THINKING!!!! But anyway.... 100bux! YAY HAHA!

Just a fewwwww! Rest of the pictures on facebook ONLY IF IM NOT LAZY! Heehee.

I FINALLY GOT TO MEET MY BESTFRIEND AMAR AFTER 8 MONTHS OF NOT SEEING EACH OTHER!!!!!! Yes, he counted! 8 months is bloody long considering the fact that he is my bestfriend!!!!! I dont care if we've drifted or how he is sooooo damn popular and busy that he doesnt have much time to spare now (its a fact and i dont blame you, you ARE popular) cos NO MATTER WHAT, I will NEVER forget all the things he did for me for the past few years. How close we were and how he stood by me throughout EVERYTHING. Family problems, sucky results, kena dumped by boyfriend.... etc etc. He is the ONLY friend that is 100% trustable to me. I can go on FOREVER telling you about all the wonderful things he did for me man. The list is never-ending!!!!


We had lunch at Thai Express JUST LIKE OLD TIMES :)I really enjoyed myself catching up with him, pouring out my problems and feeling totally COMFORTABLE with it. Love love mannnn!


Chinchilla! I love you without the weird double eyelids please -.-


Ohyeah we went iceskating!!! The last time I skated was when I was a kid?? Relieving childhood memories! Hhahaha. But the ice rink was too packed and small! Cant tell that we were skating from this pic, but its the only one I got!


HAHAHAH I LOOK LIKE PSYDUCK!


Went to the National Museum with my mum & sis after church last sunday! Visited Quest for Immortality! MUMMYS! Kinda cool. Everyone should go check it out!








One of the many statues...


And one example of the many mummys they had there! AND YES, ITS REAL! Creepy!


X-ray of another mummy. Able to see N1 and N2? Those are her infants. Apparently she died while giving birth to both of them, so they wrapped the babies up inbetween her legs.


Also visited the paperbag gallery!! They only had 60 different bags but I had fun looking at them one by one.


BATA!!! So cute right? They should change it back to this one rather than the new one! (Even though I dont know how to new one looks nice, but must be some ugly plastic shit right?)


Cold Storage! I love the whole grocery-in-paper-bag kinda thing that we see in angmoh tv shows, but it seems like only Jasons in singapore does that!


Milo!


Ovaltine! Never thought they had bags right??? I was amused too!


Materials to make paper bags :)


My mum was showing me the pictures of my grandparents in her wallet and I spotted a neoprint of Clara & I which was taken probably when I was sec 2??? Im unable to recall honestly!!! Forgot that we even took this. I dont ever wanna forget her so I snapped this picture. Rest in peace Clara, our hearts are always with you!!!


My mum works in a german bank and today her office had this mini flea thing going on to help charity! All her german and english bosses brought their personal stuff out to sell and my mum got this! True vintage! The details are really pretty in real life! (PSSS. MY PURPLE NAILS NICE RIGHT HAHAHAHAH)
