Zouk-ed

was contemplating whether to join Brian and his friends to go Zouk Mambo night

but i still went in the end..reached around 10 plus

it was totally a crazy night



Look at the crowd...it's freaking packed and the queue was freaking looonnnggg...it will take hours to get into Zouk

luckily, zen was there as well...hahaha...we cut queue cause he brought us in

i have to pay $20 as it wasnt ladies' night...it is the eve of public holiday...that explains the crowd man...

anyway, zouk underwent some renovation and it was my first time there since it reopened...

not much of a difference though the dancefloor has become blardy small...

somehow i still prefer the old Zouk


With Brian


With Zen

i left at 1 plus to go over to May's place for mahjong...the crowd at Zouk was killing me that i gotta leave...

mahjong-ing till 7am...just came back home...feeling damn shagged now...

Spree

I just bought this...



with Gorden's help again...hee... =)

Fishy's Recommendation

Fishy (that's me by the way) shall recommend good food today

and she's doing this despite knowing that it's betraying all mankind

OoopPpss....i mean fish-kind..

but then, good things are meant to be shared right...

and so, I introduce the wery nice...



FISH head steamboat....located at Whampoa market

freshness of the fish meat, salted fish, veges and yam, all boiled together with the soup base...

the "end-result" taste of the soup is wery wery nice..but, be prepared to drink like 10 cups of water cause the soup is so salty that it will make you go thirsty

okay, 10 cups is just an exaggeration

it also comes with 4 side dishes to choose from...

recommended side dishes to choose are:


braised duck


preserved veg

the fishhead steamboat comes in 3 sizes:
(1) small - $18
(2) medium - $25
(3) large - $30-35 (cant remember)

Be prepared to wait 40 mins to 1 hour...and also, wear singlet and shorts there, it will only get hotter as you eat...

Cheese Fondue @ Swiss Culture

it's a call for celebration

exams are finally OVEEERRR....*jumps for joy*

we still have a major DPP presentation next friday...it will officially mark the end of semester after the presentation

but still, there's no reason why we shouldnt celebrate...my seafoodie buddies had already made plans to indulge in some cheesy fondue after our paper

we headed down to Suntec Swiss Culture...prawny junie was the one who recommended and brought us there the previous time...


we got a special hut to sit in..cause we are VIPs...haaa...


cheese fondue and side dishes


from top left: scallops, beef cubes, chicken cubes and sausages

there are quite a number of side dishes to order from..but our favourite is still the beef cubes...


enjoying the fondue

the cheese fondue at Swiss Culture is a must try...though the price is a little steep...fondue plus 3 side dishes and scallop cost around $90

clamy diane had to go off after the lunch cause she's sick...but before she left, we got to take a group photo...we have sorta invented a way to take group pic...WITHOUT asking people for help...

so how do we actually do it?

clamy and I will always be the one standing in front, with the rest behind....the people in front will have to do 2 things...one of them will hold the cam while the other will adjust the level of the cam and ensure that everyone fits into the screen...she will then move back into her position and


TADDAh.....




a D.I.O (Do-It-Ourselves) photo...haa...

of course...to get a nicely done D.I.O shot requires several attempts...

first attempt:


FAIL !!!

elyn has only half head and body



FAIL !!!

a nicely-done shot means that everyone has to look good as well...lea's head is extremely small and very cut-and-paste kind, while mine is too big...

we realized it doesnt kill to ask for help anyway...



after spending quite a long time trying to get a proper shot...diane went home...junie suggested we catch a movie together...

we were in the ladies before going over to Beach Road's Shaw, junie caught me using the HANDICAPPED toilet...



those who read xiaxue's blog will know why....it has created such a big hoo-ha....i personally think that they are simply making a mountain out of a molehill...

anyway, we watched "All about love"....its a show by Andy Lau and the other actress whose name i cant remember....quite a sad show.....kinda depicts the pain of losing someone

it somehow made me feel that life is always so fragil and full of uncertainties...the one you love could be forever gone before you realized that you have so much to say to him/her...and so, as the saying goes...

"Cherish those around you before it's too late"

this sentence will never fail to make sense....

Eski-ed

was on my way to have dinner at holland village after shopping at F.O.S and got approached by a girl clad in thick winter wear...apparently, she was promoting the opening of new Eskibar opposite Wala Wala...

she was asking me to fill up a form when I saw another of her colleague standing right in front of me...smiling at me...

it was Clamy Diane !!!....

she's working for Eskibar too...


Clamy Diane, you looked like a 'ming xing' (star)


Asking people to fill up forms

I guess it's pure agony to be wearing thick winter wear in such a hot weather today

but then again, having the idea to wear winter wear is nice

not in "sunny-whole-year-round" Singapore of course....

can consider migrating to somewhere else so I can have the joy of wearing pretty little nice winter clothings....

i know it's lame.....haa

to actually think about it...maybe I should just stick to this sunny island..

wearing tanks and shorts is better than jeans and thick winter wear...

at least I know that I dont have to go walking around, looking as though I'm fat...

=)

PS: my dear seafood buddies...when are we going Eskibar?
