9pm dinners

In case The Boyfriend sees this (oh who am I kidding, he definitely will), I’m not whining abt the 9pm dinners we have on Wednesdays and Fridays, I appreciate them as much as 7pm dinners even though I’m almost always starving and grumpy!

The Boyfriend left work on time yesterday so we could have dinner! Had a super baaaaaaad craving for Thai so we decided to try out Two Fat Men at East Coast!

Read on Hungrygowhere that the Basil Rice and Grilled Pork Neck were must-tries! I thought the basil rice was so-so though. The pork neck was good, super huge serving for $8.90! Green curry with chicken was creamy and sweet with just the right amount of spiciness. I loved it but don’t think he enjoyed it as much as I did. Best part: NO GST/SERVICE CHARGE!! :D

I really dont know how he can still pose so nicely for the camera when all I wanna do is dig into the fooooood!

Erm okay I wasn’t being grumpy coz I wasn’t very hungry. This is a “eh don’t take ugly photos of me leh!!”

Sunday we had dinner and a loooong stroll at East Coast park followed by dessert at bugis! :D

First time trying Swirl Art coz I wanted smtg light for dessert and fro-yo seemed like the best way to go! Their fro-yo’s really rich though. My #1 is still Red mango!

And random photos from the new iphone app I installed which allows you to label your photos ;)

valentines; officially :)

Okay I know from the title, this post is meant to be cheesy but since I uploaded my photos in chronological order, here’s my wkend from Friday!

Met the girls for cheap dinner at Imperial Treasure Windows of hongkong. Love that place for the macau baked pork chop rice but this time round, I ordered the mixed grill set.

Which turned out to be horrible :( super thin and dry slices of beef and pork, sausage tasted damn cheap, only thing decent was the chicken. Only saving grace was the red bean ice! Not gonna be adventurous anymore!

Polaroidssssssss :)

Demanded to take a photo of them and they ignored me for about 5 seconds before turning to me and posing in synchro! lol camwhores we are :)

Had to play the handphone game again coz 1) Jas was whatsapping, 2) Ong was BBM-ing, 3) I was tiny-towering. LOL

——————————————————

Did the fancy valentines dinner yesterday! The Boyfriend brought me to Alkaff Mansion at Henderson Wave; its an italian restaurant combined with outdoor cafe & bar!

Had really awesome bread to start, we couldn’t get enough of it and had a 2nd round! Foie gras with caramelised onions for starters, papardelle with wild boar ragout for him and red snapper for me :)

LOVE MY NAILSS! china glaze aquadelic and electric beat ;P

Caught “this means war” after the awesome dinner + shopping and passion card gives you free tiny popcorn! Perfect for people who want to munch but can’t finish the huge box it usually comes in!

Okay off to swim now!

Valentines part I :)

A quick update since I’ve abit of time on my hands now! Titled this post Valentines part I coz we haven’t done the fancy dinner hahaha. Gonna have it tomorrow when its not so overpriced and we don’t have to meet ridiculous timings!

Being the Korean fanatics we are, we spent part I happily gorging ourselves on Korean food at a really authentic restaurant at East Coast Road! Both of us have never been there before and it was a really good experience; we’ll be back for more ;)

(The Boyfriend insists I don’t put enough photos on my blog but that’s coz its REALLY time consuming to upload photos you know?? Anyway here’s a whole barrage of photos since he made me snap snap snap, happy scrolling!!)

Oinkoink :D

Food, glorious food! We also had bibimbap but he mixed it before I could take a photo and mixed bibimbaps aren’t exactly the most photogenic! Favourite dish was the glass noodles!! Beef was not bad and portion was HUGE! Yes, we over ordered, all in the name of Saint Valentine, hahah :P

Drove to Rasa Sentosa after dinner, intention was to go for a drink at Barnacles but we ended up squeezing on a deck chair by the pool coz one of the staff told us Barnacles closes early. Only just as we were about to leave did we discover that Barnacles is actually a super duper nice place to chill with a sea view!!! And it didn’t close early lor wth!

He say I must take photo with the huge bouquet.

I say we must take photo together and he must hold the camera so I can focus on making my face look slimmer than it really is hahaha

We say: Never ask an angmoh to take a photo for you!!!

So proud of his handmade bouquet! :D

I’m supposed to be the pink bear and he’s the purple LOL

Love you long long deep deep wide wide!! :*

Hehe what I made for him :)

Chocolate heart I bought for him! Its a very nice bright red actually!

Bought him a teeny box of alcoholic chocolates (damn ex okay!!!) and Korean coffee coz apparently, those are his two favourite things.

On the shopping front:

My LB Malibu maxi finally arrived yesterday! I took a size S and it fits great :) I could probably fit into a size XS too but was worried abt the butt part being tight, but its flare cutting. hehe love the flowy light material and the length is good for me to wear sandals! The Father said I look like a cambodian woman though. And the evil boyfriend agreed. SIGH! (why did I even bother asking the two most fashionably uncertain guys right?!?! I mean all the presentable shirts in my dad’s wardrobe are from me!!)

Last night, The Boyfriend and I had oishi pizza! Revealed my insane craving for nail polish and he decided to be nice and drove me down to Ubi so I could get my OPI fix!! Waited about half an hour for them to open the door coz the owner forgot his keys, but when we finally got in, I felt like I was in nail polish heaven!! Managed to escape with just these 5 :)

Russian Navy! Its on my fingers now as I type. A deep violet blue with subtle shimmers!

Crepes Suzi-ette! This was the colour I was looking fwd to! its not a very popular colour coz its supposedly aunty-ish (found that out from googling) but its actual colour is not true to the photo at all. Its a gorgeous reddish peachy deep pink ;)

Manicurist of Seville! Was deciding between this and We’ll always have Paris and the boyfriend preferred this after seeing the colour chart so… Its a cute shade of deep reddish plum!

DS Extravangance! The most expensive at $14 per bottle but omg its so pretty!!! Can’t wait to try it out! Its the only one the boyfriend really liked hahaha :p

Also got China Glaze’s Electric Beat coz I wanted something periwinkle-ish and this was the closest I could find!! So madly in love with the blue hehe :)

Also saw this: Aquadelic but didn’t buy it coz spending $60 on polishes (and it wld probably be more than that since CG is 3 for $20!) wld be slightly obsessive. teehee but I so wanna get this the next time round!

In case anyone’s interested, they’re the people who run the OPI stand at Scape from Fridays to Sundays, called D.Y.O.N International :) From Tuesdays to Thursdays they operate from their office at Ubi Techpark Lobby B #6-18 till 10pm! They have a facebook page, go google if you wanna head down, I swear the journey is worth it!!

Our time together;

….. is always too short :(

Can’t wait for Valentines Day tomorrow even though we’re postponing the fancy dinner dingdongs to the weekend coz restaurants are disgustingly overpriced and we have to adhere to strict nonsense timings.

The Boyfriend and I have come to realise that wayyyy too many people, especially colleagues, have come to know about this little space of mine (All thanks to Jaynelles). While we’re perfectly comfortable with it, he’s requested that I put only the nicest photos of him up… Will try my best okay bombom? Can’t help it if your face is fat :x hehe, I still love you though, fat face or not!

Decided that the boyfriend deserved a treat and so we headed down to PS cafe yesterday! We got there way before 7pm, a first ever in our dating history having dinner before 7pm. (Whenever we go out on weekdays we always only manage to have dinner at 9pm. And by then both of us are starving and grumpy. Esp me. Oops.)

Hehe what’s dinner without a bit of camwhoring? Plus it was really niceee to be able to take pics on the Iphone without a flash!

Caesar Salad with Rosemary Honey-dijon Chicken;

Chermoula Pork Pie; Braised marinated pork ribeye in spices served with Moroccan cous cous, BBQ vegetable and coriander yoghurt

Okay I admit. I order the same 2 things whenever I bring people there. Have tried most of the stuff on the menu and I really only like the pork pie haha!

Annoying boy called the pork pie a “curry chicken bun” – golden pillow. Imagine my frustration in paying $30++ for that dish only to have him cheapen it!! :(

Outfit of the day: Missypixie’s Tessa White, F21 polka dotted midi skirt :)

And of course, how could the both of us be at PS cafe and not have dessert?!?!? It would be practically criminal…. In fact we were ogling the cakes displayed at the entrance before even thinking about our mains, lol :) I’ve the best dessert buddy in the whole wide world!

Went for something other than the usual double chocolate blackout that we ALWAYS have; this time round we had the Cappuccino fudge cheesecake (we added a scoop of icecream too being the pigs we are!) which was pretty good too! Am inspired to do my own this weekend or next :) The crumbly bits on top weren’t oreo, probably fudge biscuits? And cheese soaked in cappuccino just hit the spot. The double chocolate blackout cake still remains our #1 though!

pizzzzzzzzzaaaaaaa!

Last post for the weekend! (technically it’s monday already since its past 12 but oh well)

Headed to Pepperoni Pizzeria at zion road for dinner yesterday with The Boyfriend and the baby sis! I’d previously tried their pizzas before at the Greenwood outlet and they were pretty good :)

Ordered a large pizza to share among the 3 of us and it was pretty filling :) their pizzas come in Medium, large and XL! XL is REALLY huge like the size of a car tire… If you order a Large and above, you get to mix flavours :) All flavours are the same price!

Beef lasagne to share :) I’m super picky abt pastas – The only kinda pastas I take are lasagnes and Changi V’s crabmeat linguine!

Looking super cui coz I didn’t have time to touch up after my brow session!

Love you long long twittttttttttt :)

Just spent a perfect Sunday with the boyfriend; lazy afternoon shopping coz we didn’t know what else to do and I ended up with a new pair of havis and got him his vday present heh :) dinner at Ps cafe at dempsey! Caesar salad, pork pie and a super awesome cappuccino fudge cheesecake with icecream instead of our usual double chocolate black out. He still prefers his double chocolate black out though but I’m officially sick of cakes starting today. Passed by scape after dinner and I got myself a gorgeous bright orange Iphone cover and a bottle of OPI. First time I’m self applying OPI (I always use the cheapo brands) and I’m totally sold!!!!! Such smooth application… Think I’m gonna get a few more bottles!

Alright shall go to bed now, nights world!

CNY 2012 Reunion with the girls :)

Had a super belated reunion dinner with my favourite girls last Sunday! Initial plan was to go to La Cantina at Changi V for crabmeat linguine but due to unforeseen circumstances *ahem*, we ended up at Watami at Ion since 3 of us are hugeee fans of Watami! I personally <3 <3 <3 the pizza!!

Ordered the set for 2, added on a pizza and it was surprisingly filling for 4 of us :)

Camwhore time :) :) First pic is Jas in Dorothy Colourblock Frock in Green (S) and I’m in Arianna Shift Dress in French Rose :)

Get yours today on Jaynelles :)

Have worn it out at least 4 times since we collected it from supplier’s! *looks guiltily at the other brand new clothes in my wardrobe*

It’s made of a super smooth polyester silk and comfortably lined with sateen, I feel awesome in it coz its so lightweight and hides the tummy well after a meal :) Fits a Uk6-10 too! I’m a UK8 and it has some allowance on me, UK6 wld bring out the true shift dress floaty cut as seen on our model! :)

Dinner Part II!

We didn’t want to miss out on louhei-ing so since dear ongsy had a complimentary yusheng voucher courtesy of her dad’s membership, we drove down to Jumbo @ dempsey! :D

Little Miss Camwhore Queens :)

All of us were busy tapping on our IPhones and we weren’t making conversation so yish suggested this game, where we stack up all our phones, whoever reaches for their phone first before the dinner ends pays for the entire meal! Game was a success :)

“If we finish this, we are pigs”

“OMG, we really are pigs”

Yam paste!!!!!! Super good, ordered 2 bowls to share and polished off every single bit :)

——————————————

Online shopping :)

Bought missypixie’s Tessa Offsie cotton tee in Rose and White, I already have grey and black and love them to bits! unfortunately cutting seems abit more huge this time round and it falls off my shoulders all the time :( wore it to shop ystd and when I got home, my dad was like “WAH you wear so revealing ah?!?!” But will still be keeping both coz they are awesome basics, though pricey at $22 each!

Also bought these from F21 recently hehe :) love the prints of the top, wanted to spree for it but I’m glad I didnt! And am gonna wear the dress for vday! Eggciteddd :D :D :D

midweek!

Because its nearly midnight and I should really be going to bed in preparation for YET another loooong day tmr, here’s what my week has been like thus far!

Launched A Season For Love on Jaynelles on Monday, my third collection with Jan, am getting slightly less panicky and faster at sending mailers, while The Boyfriend is mastering the art of writing addresses and slotting clothing into envelopes nicely! In fact, he seems way more enthusiastic about it than I am, am glad to have him around :)

Our gorgeous model sent us the photo of her in Bianca black (S) coz she wore it to work on Tuesday! Coincidentally I was wearing Bianca too in the exact same colour, I think I’ve worn it out 5 times in the last month, love the material + cut to bits!

On Tuesday I was all whiny about having to stay late at work and tadah, delivery  boy came with his cup of happiness :)

Dinner just now! Managed to sneak off at 8pm and we headed to Raffles city for some asian foood! Love teahouse asian kitchen although we always order the same dishes! The teahouse duck is to die for, so is his moonlight horfun with raw egg! Cereal fried rice is one of my must orders too even though he always ends up finishing it for me.

Tried to upload photos from the reunion dinner with girlfriends on Sunday but my camera/usbs aren’t cooperating! shall save that for the weekend. Nights world :)
