A weekend of eating

Since I have yet to be paid, my weekend's gastronomique has been kindly sponsored by the parents. (whom, i'm sure wonder why they have been unsuccessful in shaking me off financially till this day)

As usual, it had to be Peninsula on the way back from work..with the usual salted fish fried rice and the honey pork chops and the dou-miao...

Then, together with Kim, we went to Ten Ten Tei on Sat where the Agedashi tofu was brill and so was the stewed Mackeral, although why i ordered mackeral, i don't know since jack has dozens in the freezer waiting to be eaten.

Highlight of the weekend was Nouveauté. SCRUMPTILITIOUS, MOUTH-WATERING, LIP-SMACKING DAMN GOOD CHOCOLATE CAKE. Accompanied with my (full-fat) cafe latte, it was perfect. Although, as I found out the next day (i know..i'm sad), the cakes change daily, and they didn't have any! Boo-hoo.

Sunday lunch was spent at Royal China Club. As usual, it was pretty expensive, but the dimsum was good..and this time, the dover sole cheung fun wasn't fishy! I even had a chicken foot which tasted prety good! I guess they have to cover the cost of maintaining nice loos with Morton Brown handwash + lotion + proper towels...

All in all, it was a pretty good weekend...Back to work tomorrow!

13 days

As i indulge myself with a box of Maison Fougere chocolates, and watch my "A Pillow case of mystery" cantonese drama, I feel the impending stress levels of the next 13 days of work without a break. Yes, I'm oncall next weekend... I fear the worse for my serotonin levels, and so i stock up on them now with brazilian orange, chocolate fudge cheesecake, zesty lemon mousse, caramel pudding, spice brulee, hazelnut praline ... ... ... Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining - i love my work, it's just the apprehension as i do this for the first time ... Breathe in, breathe out... Plus, it used to be worse not so long ago, so i guess we're luckier than our predecessors?

Currently digesting: Tummyfull of dim sum...enough msg for the next 13 days.

My Summer in a Nutshell

Shit Happens

It has to rain the day I wash my car. BAH. At least there's no giant birdshit anymore.

The Perfect Boyfriend

It's the start of my leave and i've started on my korean dramas. If you want an example of THE perfect boyfriend - he's in Stairway to Heaven! Great bod (ooh..those abs), totally handsome, RICH, head-over-heels in love with the girl (for damn long even though she's lost her memory)...The epitome of Mr Prince Charming... (catch me as I swoon).

Currently eating: Too glued to Kwon Sang-woo to eat!!!
