hiyakss! i'm back. miss me much? :))

i landed into Singapore yesterday evening, from a 5 days Melbourne fight pattern. not the regular 3 days. additional 2 days in Melbourne due to some issues regarding A380 with Aussie's aviation regulations. was stranded there, not knowing what are the company's plan in flying us back. i think i was the most ecstatic one to be stranded there. cause i'll have more time to spend with hometown friends! and try more yummilicious and famous food Melbourne has to offer.

first day upon landing. had Ten Ren's bubble milk tea with Karen, Bernice met us shortly after and we had lunch at Old Town Kopitiam.

Roti Jala

love the sambal, but not with the roti. prolly with nasi lemak :)

did a little shopping, parked ourselves in Max Brenner

our chocolate fondue to share

me :: Bernice

Karen :: Bernice

we had my favourite Szechuan for dinner, with Janice. a good place to discover your tolerance of spicy-ness. heehee

stir-fry chicken with mushrooms

crispy pork. this kills your tongue.

szechuan spicy fish pot. loves.

Janice :: me

the second day in Melbourne was a little mundane. cause Karen was working the whole day, Bernice has got some group study and Janice working till 5pm as usual. tried Chatime's bubble milk tea, and find Ten Ren's was much better, less sweet. nasi goreng kambing (spicy mutton fried rice) at Es Tella with colleagues. met up with Janice for dinner at Greek's restaurant, Stalactites.

Homecooked Fish Soup

(sliced fish, vegetables and rice in zesty lemon soup)

4 different types of dips, to go with

pita bread, and

chicken giro platter to share.

Passionflower ice-cream for dessert. black sesame, sticky rice (orh chut bee in Hokkein) and red bean flavored ice-cream with black muah chees. sticky rice flavor was pretty awesome!

the next day took a train to Glenferrie, to had lunch with Bernice at KimChi Lunchbox. then came back to town to meet Eugene, Clariss and Karen. we lepak-ed at Lindt Chocolat Cafe for a drink couple of hours while waiting for Janice. later, off to Red Silks for some Malaysian food. wouldn't mind going there again for the Belacan Fried Rice the next time around :)

left Melbourne with few kilo's heavier. not good. and i miss hanging out with the girls already. can't wait to be back in Melbourne. hmph. anyway i'll be around until my next flight, London on Wednesday night. initially tempted to fly back to Penang for few days but my plan was crushed by Elaine and Dad. Elaine suggested that i study on my offs and Dad said i'm wasting money on flight ticket. which is true.. so i decided to stay and rot in my room.

it has been raining in Singapore since morning. drizzles, heavy downpour, strong wind. just reached home not long after church service and lunch with cellgroup member at Wonton Story in Bugis Junction. did some small grocery shopping in Cold Storage too. stocking up on canned tuna and cheese slices for my sandwich diet after this. haha! taking a nap now, will be seeing SookHua SingCheer and Jagung for dinner. byee.

p/s: check out the menu on the linked website for the restaurants! hungry yet? :))
