Happy birthday Santi guniang!

Happy Birthday Santi guniang! 

Super exciting news cos Welly just proposed to Santi today! Wheeee!! Another of my two best friends are getting married! So happy for them! Whoopeee!

Supper at Kko Kko Nara

Santi had a craving for Korean food so we went to Kko Kko Nara for supper! It's one of the few Korean restaurants in Singapore that's still opened after 10.30pm so we went there. It's quite expensive, but the food is quite good. I went there with Le hubby last year after we went searching for bridal gowns along Tanjong Pagar. Most importantly was I got to spend quality time with my 2 best friends together with my hubby! Super happy!! :)

Natas Fair & PS Cafe

We went to NATAS Fair at Singapore Expo today! Not to book any tours, but just to go and find Santi guniang and have dinner with her & Welly! She's working at the fair for 3 days on behalf of her company in Batam who sent her to Singapore to help sell Batam tours. 

I was skeptical about people paying $4 to go into the exhibition to book a cheap Batam tour but she told me there are weirdos who do that!!! 

Luckily Hallie managed to get us free tickets so we don't have to pay to go in! YAY HALLIE! It's been a long time since I last saw her and it's good to see her again! She was my ex-colleague in Namho and she was also Le hubby's tourleader when he went to Hokkaido for a holiday with Namho! What a coincidence right? Heeheehee!

We walked around the hall while waiting for Santi guniang to finish her shift. We avoided all booths of my ex-travel companies cos I didn't want to bump into nosey colleagues who I don't like. Honestly, a lot of people in the travel trade are a super bitchy and kpoh bunch and it's good to ignore and avoid them than get tangled in their crazy bitchy mess.

While walking around , I saw this promotion on one of the boards and it says you will get a free bonus gift if you book a Australia tour package with them. At first glance I thought it was abalone but upon closer look it says abalone sauce.

ABALONE SAUCE! WHATTTTT!!!!!

We headed to PS Cafe at Palais Renaissance for dinner! Both Santi & Welly have never been there before so we wanted to treat them to a nice dinner there. :) I was raving about the truffle fries all the way from Expo to Orchard.. it was also the first thing we ordered when we sat down.

However to my immense disappointment and anger, the stupid waiter did not key in our order for the truffle fries so it did not come! Worst of all, the kitchen was closed by the time I reminded him to serve the fries and they refused to cook it for us cos they claimed the deep fryer is emptied and cleaned out of oil!

SAY WHAT!!!!!!!!! Angry TTM!!

I threw a mini bitch fit cos I was really pissed off! That was the main reason why we came to PS Cafe and I was raving about it to my best friends and now they can't get to try it!! ROARRRR!!

So the manager offered us free desserts in an attempt to pacify me. He also offered free coffee and tea but we only ordered desserts. Each of us chose one dessert so it turned out to be quite a good deal. One plate of fries that was not served in exchange for 4 desserts!

Le hubby had carrot cake and Welly chose the same cherry pie as me. I wanted my favourite Key Lime Pie but it was out of stock.. Le sigh. The cherry tart was alright, but not as good as the lime pie.

The service was also not very good. And this outlet has a rule of one main course or salad per person. No sharing and you cannot just order desserts if you dine in here. Stupid right? I prefer the main outlet at Dempsey Hill. Le hubby gets free parking there too.

Anyway I had a great time catching up with my best friends today! We are also meeting tomorrow for supper after Santi guniang's shift! Wheeee!!!!! ^_^

Din Tai Fung & Sogurt at Nex

Met Welly & Santi for dinner today! Brendan came to my office to pick me up (Thanks dear!) and we went back to my place to park the car then walked to Nex Mall. I am staying very near Nex, around 5 mins walk and usually he will park at my house cos the parking at Nex is atrocious.. moreover it's free parking at my house. :)

We met them at Din Tai Fung cos Welly always wanted to try the Xiao Long Baos there but didn't have a chance to. Previously I asked him to go for lunch there but he wanted to wait for Santi to go together (so tianmimi) cos she was on a tour to Taiwan and couldn't go with us.

Anyways, the long awaited dinner has finally arrived and it's a double date! :)

Santi & Welly!

Xiao Long Baos! (We ordered 2 of these. Hee!)

My fave pork chop rice!

Le bf and me ❤

New dessert: Mango Pudding

Brendan wanted to try the Almond jelly with sesame paste but it's sold out. :(

Santi has a Sogurt craving since December!

There's no Sogurt in Indonesia so she's super happy!!

Le bf is used to my Sogurt addiction already. Haha!

Belated House-warming gift from Santi & Welly!

They weren't able to attend my house warming in April, nor helped me move house cos they were in Indonesia. Santi said this Tupperware series is limited edition and though it's lifetime warranty, if I damage it they may only replace it with the normal type if these are sold out... Shows you how well they know my tendency to break stuff, even hardy stuff like Tupperware. =.=

Box of 4! I love the colours!

Each one comes with a spoon! So cute! 

You can clip it to the bottom of the cover! :)

Kitty with the spoons. Hee!

I was telling my sister the difference between Tupperware and normal plastic containers. She is so brainwashed by marketing campaigns that she cannot tell the difference between the product and the brand. Tupperware is a brand and the plastic containers without the brand is just plain containers but people are used to calling them "Tupperware". Likewise for Pampers. It's diapers but people are used to saying "Pampers". We all substitute brands for the products because of strong marketing campaigns.. and I guess they really work because a lot of people can't tell the difference anymore for many products.
