Yum yum in my tum tum
Friday night, the laney picked me up to go to Central where we ate at Chippy’s. I wanted to go to Ma Maison again to let the laney sample the Japanese-Western fusion dishes in a kitchsy environment but alas, the place is far too popular and I could not get a reservation. So we ate at Chippy’s:
+ cheesy curry chicken
- cheesy sausage with mashed potato
+ battered fries
+ cringle fries
Then we went to Timbre to listen to this band called the Goodfellas and I had a strawberry margarita. I also met the laney’s colleague who also has a crush on the fab four. Cool beans.
Saturday, we went to Amoy Street to eat the curry fish head (+) thing that Wang and I usually eat. The laney was wary of the parking as he got a ticket there before and lightning always strikes twice and more. Then I joined Jiaps, Jackie and Bianca at this place where Auntie Shufang was trying on her gowns. She chose her gowns faster than she shops for normal clothes.
It was warrior yoga with Adhe on Sunday morning. Totally xiong that class, I forgot how taxing it was on the thighs too. We went to Botak Jones at Toa Payoh where we ate:
+ Botak cheese burger
+ Cajun burger
- Chez fries
The burgers came with cajun fries and coleslaw. The servings are HUGE. Not the burgers but fries. But the chez fries were not that fabulous at the cheese that they used was not Cheese Whiz but sliced cheese and they topped it with lettuce. I mean spring onions were fine but lettuce??
Dinner was the Pig’s treat at Garibaldi, a pish posh Italian place along Purvis Street where they only served sparkling or still water. I do not like sparkling water so had to drink an entire bottle of 750ml of still water by myself. It was quite dark and the service was excellent. But as gourmet dining went, it took a long long time for the food to come. We ate from 7:30 to 9pm. I am usually a speedy eater. And the prices! Only when the Pig pays then can eat at these kind of places. I rather buy something (the meal cost more than my brand new leather jacket) with that money. We ate extremely small portions of:
+ Lobster soup
+ Fried King Prawns
+ Crab cake thingy
+ Foie gras
+ Beef Ravoli (the laney)
+ Duck spinach pasta (Mama)
+ Lobster angel hair pasta (Pig)
+ Beef Tenderloin with truffle potatos and some mushroom (me, only 4 miserable pieces of beef)
+ Molten chocolate cake with heavenly hazenut gelato (me, I really like the ice cream)
+ Apple tart with chocolate gelato (Pig)
+ Tiramisu (Mama, it came on a plate like ten times the size of the dessert)
+ Italian pastry thing with cream on a chocolate bar thing which looked damn yummy (the laney)
There was something called Chocolate dusgustation which I wondered aloud if it was disgusting why was it on the menu? Hehehehhe, bimbo.
Pretending to be posh.


apparently, the chef from Les Amis left to venture his own, at the outlet just beside Garibaldi….
