Our 'Ali Baba' dinner

No idea what to eat on a Sat nite. I suggested Waraku coz I wanted to make full used of the expiring voucher but he's not in a mood to take JP cuisine. Then how abt curry fish head? No no again.. then we kept silent for awhile. He kept riding & riding ... towards Bugis then I asked whether we going to stop there? He din reply & still riding.. I have no clue of where's he heading to.

Then he stopped at these 'Ali baba' place Arab st, he smiled & said 'how abt Turkish or Egyptian?' hahaha... some frenz told me he's fussy with food. But I dun think so, coz any where we went he would eat what's in stall, he nvr complaint. He just being more selective & adventurous when he's in a mood to explore new stuff. I think I am much much more fussy then him.

We went a few round to find a cozy place, & this restn catches our eyes/stomach : )

The Pyramid Restn, serving Egyptian food. Very simple & decent restn, with very friendly staff. Arabic songs as background wat else to complaint, felt like we in Egypt at that moment. We took a seat downstairs coz upstairs already full with Shisha smokers : )

The menu is really simple too, but still looks kinda alien to me. So he decided on the orders, a mix kebah for 2, Arabic salad and a Hummus (dun ask me how to pronounce hahaha) it's something made of peas & eggs, trust his taste coz he been to Egypt before.

The mix Kebah, c/w chicken+Lambs+Beef+Beef Patties & salad, rice/bread @S$25/= for 2. No complaint on these, reasonable price & it really taste nice, especially the lambs & beef patties.

I dun really appreciate the Hummus, it tasted kinda weird to me ....... but can tell he misses this. : p Hummus @ S$6/= c/w Bread.

The rice is different from what we usually eat in S'pore, it's slim & long but too dry for me. Dun really like it.

And this cute little boy seating next to our table, kept running to & fro to us & smiling at us. Maybe he's wondering wat this crazy Aunty&Unke doing here : D

Well, over all I would give a 3/5 but it's definitely a very nice experience. Would like to try the Turkish food next time. : )

Kueh Lapis

We went all the way to this unfamiliar estate Mei Ling Street, just to get a box of Kueh Lapis.... All becoz of my little unintentional remarks tat had troubled Unke Wong to pack me a box of Kueh Lapis, all the way fr Surabaya, Indonesia... very pei say & thank you very very much, so how can I miss this shot with him heehee..

After the 'gift presentation ceremony' me & Dar headed down to the famous ABC Market for dinner. Actually both of us dun kn wat is really famous over there..: D but we saw some ppl eating the Ayam Penyet so why not : p and here goes our nice Ayam Penyet & Tahu goreng. Still prefer the Ayam Penyet at Tampines Mall foodcourt.

Joel's BD

Sis & I were cracking our head, thinking wat to buy for this mischievous boy. We knew he loves music but it will be too noisy for our ears, and tot of getting him some cars or trucks but he already got so so so many... Finally we decided to get something that can settle him down. : ) and tat's a set of cooking stuff, he enjoys playing masa masa too. N who said cooking toys are for girls only? : D Most famous chef are man tho. hehee
This set of Packed Away Kitchen toy cost us S$80++ but it worth $$, coz he loves it & we too enjoying playing with him.

Gathering

Thanks God it's Friday : ) and for my special frenz we all decided to take half day leave for this gathering. 1 of my fav place for gathering -- Shokudo at Raffles City. I always preferred quiet ambiance so that we can chat & not shouting across the table, or have to stretch our ears/neck long enough to catch the sentence.

It has been abt 2years since she last joined us for gathering. Not blaming her coz she's a mother of 2 princesses and really busy spending more time with her kids. She still the same as before, kinda blurr blurr lol.... Me & budd arrived early & waited for them abt 1/2hr coz the 2 ladies got abit lost at Raffles city...

I ordered Yakitori & some grill chicken wings before I went out to fetch the lost 'child'. And this Missy Ho she just can't wait any longer hahaa... she's famished so when the food was on the table she just graped & ate, dun bother liao : D ofcoz me too lah... how can resist this temptations ; p

As usual my fav drinks at Shokudo. We were just like those '7th mouth' haha ordered so much food until the table so packed. We got egg & ham omelette's, shabu shabu by Missy Ho, sashimi & chicken wings by Sharon, Unagi tomatoes omelette's rice & curry rosti by Jodie, yakitori, bbq wings and Unagi omelette's rice fr me.

Jodie's Unagi & tomatoes omelette rice is diff from mine Ungai Omelette rice... err... okie they both Unagi Omelette rice but Jodie's Unagi is placed outside the rice whereas mine is fried together with the rice. Emm... hope I've not confused anyone hahaa... anyway both with Unagi & Rice lah and both yummy yummy : p

Curry Rosti... so so not very fantastic. Soba & Shabu Shabu yummy, as only me & Missy Ho took beef so very pei say huh left the other 2 ladies out for the shabu shabu.

And the wings... big, crispy, juicy & thumps up ofcoz : p

Me & Jodie, not sure y this pic slightly blurr...

Veron & Sharon

Our 1st group pic by Shokudo staff...can't make it..alamak. So we decided to set timer & DIY...hahaa for this shot it took us quite a while to succeed & poor Missy Ho running up & down for 3set of cameras & multiply time of set & reset hahaa..it's ok this will made you lose some weight after the heavy meal.

There's a playground near the exit, so next time Sharon can bring ur kids here so they can play while we enjoy our food : D

We were over whelmed by all these nice food... and all our laughters. I think we made the loudest noisy that filled up half of the restn, the staff there also can't help laughing & looking at us. Mayb the restn will banned us 4 ladies next time, for creating too much noise & distract their staff from working : D
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Con't our 2nd round at Ben&Jerry's Ice Cream. Why these ice-cream so ex huh? and it dun taste any better, I still prefer Swensen's.

We had all ordered some drinks & this ice-cream to share share, and this ice-cream cost S$14.90 wow!!! Just simply 2 scoops of almost melted ice-cream with waffles..with a lousy presentation not worth it at all ; ( hmm..I miss the A&W waffles topped with ice-cream!! Wat happened to my cam.. blurr pic again!!! maybe it's the setting : (

Allen joined us at Ben & Jerry's, loving couple so envy wor..
And this loving couple 'fighting' over a cup of dun kn wat shake.... tat cost S$11.... ofcoz she won the 'battle' : D
Thanks gals for making this gathering so fun & fruitful, looking forward to our next gathering. Thou might hav to sacrify half day leave but I think it's worth it.... but not every mth hor I dun hav so many leaves left liao : D
