It's my first time join my department, Maxims team, for dinner. The dinner is at Bora-bora beach club, located at Sentosa Island. This dinner consider a farewell dinner too for a colleague.

It's a BBQ dinner. Variety of foods - crayfish, salad, prawn, otak-otak, potatoes, squid, etc... While wait the foods to be served, we ordered beers, cocktails... I ordered a recommended cocktail, it has lime + peppermint...Maybe I'm not use to the bitter taste, so i drink bit cocktail, then "steal" MinHui's ordered beer to drink to "neautral" the taste. Beer + cocktail = in the end make my face so red (they say mix will easily drunk, luckily I didn't drunk, otherwise ... XD ...)

After dinner, some chit-chat, play pool, take a stroll at beach.... 9:30pm....back home oi oi...

Tomorrow (30 June) is colleagues gathering + farewell for another colleague... and next Friday (10 July) is whole company, KTS JV dinner gathering.... Waiting for it..... =)

This date is Jeffrey's birthday. I only knew during the breakfast with them. So, we decided to have a steamboat gathering at Bugis as a birthday celebration with him. "Chuan Yi Bin" located opposite Bugis shopping centre (out from MRT, from "The Cathay" cinema, walk straight, cross the road, and there's the shop). For steamboat style, you can choose either 2 flavor soup style or soup+hotplate style. There are 4 flavour of soup - herbal chicken soup, tomyam soup, fish head soup, and "sour+spicy" soup. There are many foods too (better than the another steamboat shop that I went before at Bugis too)... Although it's weekday, but the shop was full with customers. Overall, I like it and will go for 2nd time. But, there's only a toilet in shop that caused many people wait for it and I purposely went to Bugis shopping centre's toilet.

A joke from colleagues....There is a bulletin board full with all staff's pictures categorized by department at each floor. So, many of staffs like to see the pictures when they pass by the bulletin board.

Colleague A: "A, your picture on the bulletin board, when it's taken?"
Colleague B: "That's my secondary school picture..."
Colleague A: "Waa...it's really different. Just like customer look at "catalog" (photo), it's very nice, but after ordered and the "product" (real look) received, it's different from "catalog"...."

There's a new colleague reported on 1 June 09. Before that, all of us talked about her as colleague C said that the colleague looked "sexy" by the photo. We told her maybe not as "catalog" always "nicer than "product"... Some curious by the "sexy word and want to see her photo..

Colleague C: "No need. The "catalog" is passed (pass through interview) and this monday we will see the "Product". Don't worry about the possibility of big difference between the "catalog" and "product" as has "3 months warranty" (3 months probation) ".....

So, the new terms among us -- catalogue, product, 3 months warranty...My colleagues are really creative and funny... Isn't it T_T

It's another outing, but is with my ex-company's colleagues - Mr. Loh, Tammy, and Lao Huang. They brought me to a restaurant located at Race Course Road (near Farrer Park MRT). The restaurant's owner is from China. We ordered variety of foods (All of them tried before and felt very nice, that's why brought me to there) - fried mee hoon, "lor mee", fried mee sua, etc. The "lor mee" is different with the black lor mee that we eat usually. I like the fried mee sua (A nice combination with crispy seaweed and peanuts) very much, same for fried mee hoon. The price is reasonable too.

foods that make me so full on the day

I saw TV programme introduce about BBQ foods in Spices Cafe, Hotel Concorde which is located near to Somerset MRT. I'm attracted by the varieties of BBQ foods + unlimited salad bar for S$8 and unlimited dessert for S$5 ... Thus, we decided to try this restaurant on this weekend. It's need to make a reservation before go to the restaurant.

It's my first time to enjoy foods in hotel's restaurant. The nice ambiance + friendly staff + delicious foods make me feel relax and enjoy =)

The total bill S$70++ as main course + 2 drinks already cost S$30++ ... Since I'm not the one who always eat expensive food, so it's ok for me to try the yummy food + nice environment at this price =p
