Makansutra Singapore 2011

Recently bought a copy of Makansutra Singapore 2011 on one of my half day leave while roaming in MPH. Thought would be a good idea to have a copy especially when running out of ideas on what to eat...

Me and my gf decided to try one of the places recommended..

Rong Guang B.B.Q Seafood
Blk 127 Bukit Merah Lane 1
KPT Coffeeshop

We have actually tried the food before here, but it was quite some time back but must say that i was pretty impress with the food, i think back then it was still located in the Hawker centre...

Anyway so decided to revisit this place as part of our exploration on recommendation by the Makansutra book. The rating given by the book was high 5 chopsticks aka "Divine"

Our orders for the night were Prawn paste chicken, Stingray and Sambal kangkong,




To be honest, we were not overly impressed especially the stingray, it was not very fresh the chilli on the stingray lack power just was not as "Divine" as thought out to be.
The sambal kangkong was not bad (guess hard to go wrong for such a simple dish but the veggie was cook just right) Prawn paste chicken was the best among the 3 dishes, nicely deep fried, crispy out and tender in, yum...

Would probably just rate it a 2 chopstick aka "Good" but if you are nearby the queenway shopping centre area or ikea alexandra, it is sure worth dropping by this place.

Long time

As again, it is been a long time since any post been written, dont even remenber what was last post about.

But heck that, November was holiday month as i visit seoul and jeju, south korea free and easy. Although a bit of hiccups here and there but still a good holiday.







This morning went for medical check up at Executive Health Screener, time really files last time went there was 2 years ago and with Credit Suisse, now pay ownself then claim from new employee more ma fan, but most of the procedures has yet to change so that was not too bad... Think really getting old liao... Hopefully the result would be good good... :)

Weekend soccer

Just came back from weekend soccer with my secondary school friends. Today damn on form, score 3 goals and had a good number shots on target...couple of assists. Felt good about myself. I must start motivating myself more in other things i do... : )

2 more days to go

Leaving the firm in 2 days.. Strange as it may sound.. I do have a tinge of sadness and will really look back and think what could have been, had things gone my way..
Oh well guess that is life, the hard way so just have to learn to be satisfied with what I have right now..

What is New?

Well so many new things for me happening, let me run through them to remind myself:

New Job
After going through a bad patch (job related) i have finally move on. I have tender my resignation from Credit Suisse to join American bank Morgan Stanley.

New Paycheck
Strangely i am not excited about nor am i motiviated for it, that despite the fact i am gonna be paid more.

New Age
I turn 27 years old 5 days ago... but of course i still feel 18 la... and i certainly look very young. Oh gosh i sound like a girl.

New wardrobe
Been doing quite a bit of shopping this month...
Tailor 2 shirts and 2 pants from Men tradition (disappointed with the pants)
Bought 1 shirt from N.tyler and 1 pants from Library in CK tangs, cos they gave me 20% off for birthday
Bought online from polo ralph US, bought 2 shirts but sadly sizing no good... so sold one away liao... haha...
Bought another 2 shirts from Rossi and 1 shirt from Library from CK Tang Sales on me birthday.
Woohoo... Total got 6 new shirts and new pants...

New Experience
Went to catch the Lion King and stayed 1 night in MBS 2 weekends before my birthday, although the stay was not really up to the expectation, the show was good... highly recommend it to all.

New Training
I am going for RT training. LOL. After scraping through 3 years of IPPT i have fallen victim to RT. Too lazy to train or even try to pass. I gave up this year to just go for RT. Haha.

Finally
It feels a different me now, one that is not motivated and not passionate about life de me... It feels weird, i dont have the desire and motivation anymore. Strange enough but oddly as well that despite knowing it all, i dont care. I honestly dont. But that is just me... haha... so what is new then...
