五月十九日, 星期一

The long weekend ending in another couple of hours ... so fast. Like nothing much was done, the next holiday will be in Aug, National Day. Had alot of good food though.

Saturday morning, I went to dim sum buffet at Tung Lok@ECP with my parents and bro. Even though we reached at the starting time of the buffet, there were already a couple of tables with people. It was ala carte so early means lesser waiting time. You have 20 of dim sum items, 7 or 8 small dishes and 4 desserts to choose from ... eat till you surrender.

Some items worth mentions were the 烧卖, 腐皮卷, 迷你蛋挞, 糯米鸡, 椒盐苏东, 酸甜鱼片, 干炒叉烧河, etc. We took our time and finished around 2 pm. It came to about $25 per pax.

That was consider brunch and was prepare to skip dinner but ..... eventually had mine at BJ@Toa Payoh. Another 极乐 meal. Rosemary lambchops, whoopass cheese fries, thai chicken and beef burgers. Simply too hard to resist even though I wasn't that hungry.

Sunday started with lunch at CV. The 鸡扒河分 and 炸云吞 still so good. The 河分 sauce savoury and with the chunks of crispy 鸡扒 ...... Yummy ! The 炸云吞 here were so crisp that you probably can hear it from the bus interchange, with generous meat fillings in it too. Simply so good !

Then came 8 hours of mahjong ... no luck this time round. It was like all force against you. Simply too crappy ... I stopped the game before "The Apprentice" ended. It was dinner/supper time and decided on 重庆麻辣火锅 opposite Shaw Tower. They open till 5 am. Now it cost $18 per pax, up from the $15 the last time we were there. We split around 2 am and was time to get a shower as we were sticky and sweaty from the meal.

Today managed to finish rest of LOST S4, eagerly waiting for S5. And I started on 原来爱上贼, just finished epi 7. Managed to jog today ... hope that I can continue that.

Work again tomorrow :(
