It has been some time since I ate at the East Coast Hawker centre

Luckily, the weather nowadays due to the rain make the air balmy and cool….that the local delicacies were wolfed down with much east without much sweat pouring down our backs. Oyster Omelette, Fried Hokkien Prawn noodles, Rojak and satays…….feeds for the week……..

Up and coming new restaurant chain, Pu Tien, offers Hokkien style food…The selection of food were a little different from the usual Crystal Jade chain so to me it looks almost exotic….We wanted a lighter lunch so we ended up ordering the Braised pig intestine, seaweed and crab meat soup and blue berry shan yao….topped with Tie Guan Yin. It was actually pretty filling and yet not too oily…..

It is time for the “guess, who’s hand is it” …….3 ladies, 1.5 hours of self pampering time…….ah…bliss

Merry Christmas to all! *^_^* Did you have a good Christmas? Though I am down with some unknown bug bites that caused a huge allergy reaction and bad sore throat that made me unable to talk…but I still feel warm (from the fever?) and blissful in for the festive season…

M hotel in Anson Road apparently is a nice and quiet place to chill on non-working days in the CBD area….

An afternoon with the ladies with some Bloody Mary, hot tea and mushroom soup……..chill chill chill…..sometimes, the company matter more than the place…but the place to chill with comfortable sofa chairs just made it better.
