Dear Friend's Birthday 2009.

It was a belated birthday dinner for XTT-KC aka my BBOF. :-)

Had a superb-super-mini-celebration on the actual day (Monday). Superb cuz we finally got to take a look at the present (which sat for almost four months in my wardrobe) and we ate delicious Swiss Bake chocolate truffle cake (which we didn't mind sharing the few extra pounds that came with it). But this dinner was also a great excuse for everyone to gather and enjoy the company - we certainly did.

The venue was Mykii at Holland Village.

This concept restaurant has some meaning tied to its name. It was the third Valentine's Day recommendation from HungryGoWhere that I tried. This one is good for birthdays as well. :-)

The restaurant has Greek-style deco. The white-washed walls and blue cushion reminded me of the white buildings of Santorini of the Greek Islands. And the food? Let's take a look at some of the food we ate...

The Birthday-Gurl had this, Seafood Linguine with laksa pesto (tossed with prawns, clams, fish cake and tofu puffs) - $15.80

There was also the Tamarind Glazed Chicken with glass noodle, green papaya and Asian herbs - $9.80

Pork Roasted Chicken with almond and olive pilaf - $14.80

BBQ Baby Back Ribs with roasted pumpkins and cabbage mash - $19.80

I tried the Deep Fried Goby Fish with sticky plum and ginger sauce. The sauce was fantastic, tho' the portion was kinda miserable. I was still hungry after that.

Colour Petite Pastries which we did not try. Maybe next time?

Besides the eating, they also started comparing the scratches on two iTouch... hmmm... wouldn't it be nice if they have non-camera iPhone for sale?

After dinner, we continued our evening at Wala Wala.

The Birthday-Gurl had Mojito!

Alcohol makes people do funny stuffs. =)




And I think I may be getting too old for drinks... ha ha. OLD. What a word that confronts us annually.

The Bridal Dowry.

The delivery of dowry ( 送嫁妆 ) is another important custom. It represents parent's effort for her daughter to have a good life after marriage and prepare her with the necessities for being a good wife. I am amazed by some of the things included in the dowry. Of course, in our modern living, we will not be using some of those things... Nevertheless, I think it is all good to have them, as each item carries a good meaning for our blissful marriage. :-)

Shopping for Perfume.

If you want to buy original but cheaper perfume in Singapore, you'd probably go to Lucky Plaza . You can bargain at the perfume shops in Lucky Plaza which is the exact reason why anyone would wanna shop at Lucky Plaza. I went there with a friend to shop for some perfume this afternoon. It was a shopping experience I never had before in Singapore. As a matter of fact, never before in my life or anywhere in the world. I usually visit the two shops near McDonald's . Today we decided check out another shop since we had walked from the "Lucky Plaza - Ngee Ann City underpass". We had in mind one of the brand we wanted. So after asking the price, we looked for the 2nd bottle of brand, but at a lower budget. We tested three, can't decide and asked for recommendation from the boss, an Indian lady (not being racist, its just the fact it happened to be an Indian shop). She showed me a black face (no pun intended! heh ) and said my budget was too low. She probably wasn'...

If you have it, just flaunt it.

Its such a lousy day, I have decided to blog another entry. Yesh, I am thinking about things other than my last two papers on Thurs and Friday. Something probably talked alot before by many people... What is it with men and women with 可爱-oooii *杨丞琳's voice* face, long tresses, slim legs, curvey body, in revealing tight clothes (only for those with the former characteristics), in pink. Why are men so attracted to those features? The guy is lying if he says he will not turn his head when he sees women with those features. I think it has nothing to do with men being lustful or anything disgusting. It probably has something to do with the genes, the hormones. I don't believe it has to do with things like its men's nature instinct to look for partners who can reproduce blahblahblah. That's so boring! Its something mysterious, something that let men derives pleasure by just looking openly, without doing anything bad or harmful or immoral. Do women ogle at men all the time too...
