Ice Edge Cafe / Frankenstein

Another trip to a cafe again, which is the Ice Edge Cafe located near Kovan mrt station, with wenyi today! :-) it was supposed to be a threesome date (me, wy and jess) but this jess last minute told us she had an appt last night - for her eyebrows this vain girl - whereby the person could only make it today so she had to go and miss the trip with us there haiyooo. 

Sooo, it was just wy and I /smirk/ HAHAHAHA. Trained to Kovan where in btwn we switched from green line to orange line then to purple line again, so troublesome. Made our way there shortly with the help of google map again hehe. Probably b'cos the cafe just opened (12pm to 12am daily), there wasn't much people there yayyy. Got a seat at a corner with comfy sofa for the both of us hoho and then we placed our orders!! I was so famished then (only ate yogurt before leaving da house) o goshhhh.

Ordered the 1-for-1 lunch promotion which is available on weekdays, 12pm-3pm!!! This is partly why we travelled so far for hehehehe. There's also set dinner promo which comes with a drink (I think) as well! 

Salmon steak - saw a few people recommending it while reading the reviews online so I gave it a try!! It comes with the salad (as seen) and a chunk of mashed potato (covered by the salad), I forgot what it's called. Thought the portion was quite small and won't be filing for me but I was wrong! Felt kinda full after like that one piece? I also don't know why too hahahahaha. Anyways, I feel that the salmon isn't VERY nice but still nice - lol does it make sense - cos it is like a bit overcooked? The meat's quite hard and not those smooth kind. Ahh, sorry I suck at describing good oh well. But anws, I will prefer it to be smoother or smth heh. Besides that, the buttery sauce is good!! :D 

(Wenyi ordered a dish called chicken pesto... Something... It has creamy sauce over the chicken chop and the portion's quite big!! It comes with the (same) salad and potato wedges as well! If you will not get sick of creamy stuff after eating it for long, there you go, chicken pesto smth smth... Hahaha)

Waffle with 2 scoops of gelato - sooo, many have recommended this dessert which is kind of common in cafés ah hehe. But what's 'uncommon' I will say is that their gelato is homemade! That explains the variety of unique flavours they have! :-) but it depends on your luck whether which flavour is available when you're there heh. For us, we chose Choco Brownie & Lychee Martini to go with the waffle!! Honestly, I will prefer strangers reunion's buttermilk waffle than this one! This waffle is indeed crispy at the outside while soft in the inside but it is not flavourful, like it does not have that blast of flavour when you take one bite of it. In another words, it's kinda bland. Luckily, there was ice cream to eat with the waffle! I loveee the lychee martini :p It doesn't taste like gelato tho HAHA. It just tastes like some frozen ice? Ohhh lychee snow ice. Something like that! Icy and sweet with that aftertaste of martini which isn't very strong to me. Yummyyyyy. The Choc Brownie's good as well!! There's mini brownie bites in it ooooo /drools/

Oh and we saw this device, really cool.

And look at this retard HAHAHAHA.

And then here's me, the more decent one unlike someone hmmmm HAHA kiddingggg la kidding :p

Left the place around 2+ and bused all the way to tamp inter to meet jess at century square for movieeee!! Caught 'I, Frankenstein' which is really action-pack all the wayyy man. Didn't really get the ending tho hehe but it's okkkk. I really love how there was always fighting here and there even tho most (?) are by animations b'cos it involved ugly demons and protectors or wtv u called it, idk. Find Frankenstein very cool hoho, like how the way he fights against all those demons, how he saves the humankind from danger wooo. Def an interesting movie! :D

Shopped around a little bit and parted with 'em!! 

Found if at Kissjane but didn't buy it in the end o welllll. Idk man, I may not wear it more than once but... I like it sighs :-( it's ok zhiyu, u have enuf clothes. 

Yea. 

Enuf... 

Since when girls have enuf clothes to begin with HAHA.

Ootd! :-)

(there's a reason of why I used this 'clovers' marker okayyyy HAHA)

Another well-spent day just eating, chatting and watching movie heh. School's reopening soon and hopefully, we'll still have chance to meet up like that again! x

Shopping 2 / Tim Ho Wan

Yes, went for another shopping trip with my mum - as mentioned in the previous post and the title - today at orcharrrd!! :D so I literally bought half of my buys from cotton on, which was the first shop I stopped by when I reached there aha. Bought 1 pair of mulberry shorts, 1 (comfortable) romper and lastly, 1 denim Shortall which costs $39.95 - that 5cents away from $40 can perhaps make me feel better... Lol kidding - so idk if I should buy T-T Ended up buying cos I really love it plus it can be adjusted to fit my height nicely unlike those blogshop ones which are fixed and hence, too short for me :((( sucks to be tall this time.

^^^ seems like excuses to comfort myself, yea I know.

Oh well, alr bought it so shall wear it more often ba hehehe. Continued to walk around after that! Bought another sleeveless top which is on sale hoho /inserts smirk face emoji/ then bought a simple maroon dress from topshop!! Window shopped after that cos I know I can't buy anything else alr and I really resisted the temptation to buy very hard when I entered Factorie :'( Now, all of the pay I earned cfm plus chop is gone alr sighhh :-(

Headed to bedok mall after that for dinner! Wanted to try Tim Ho Wan, esp. the char siew buns ever since I read lynn's post on it xD There was a long queue when we reached there but it wasn't so long of a wait before it was our turn!

Ordered all these - chicken feet, pork ribs, prawn dumplings, char siew buns and siew Mai - missing the porridge and 2 char siew buns which were alr in our stomachs :p

The porridge :-)

Chicken feet. Kind of disappointed when this dish was served b'cos I was expecting those usual spicy chicken feet that can be found in dim sum restaurants :-(

The char siew bun!!! DAMN GOOD HOLY PIG COW DUNG *-* The best ones I've ever eaten in my life - outside is crispy yet soft while the inside is filled with tender and juicy char siew in which the sauce will slowly ooze out - one bite and I'm flying HAHAHA. Still missing that heavenly bite *-* Definitely will go back for more when I have the chance to!!! :p

Overall, what I enjoyed at Tim Ho Wan was their porridge and char siew bun! The rest like the prawn dumplings or siew mai are just meh, nothing much special, just like the normal ones I've eaten before haha. If I go back, I'll just buy and take away the char *-* siew *-* buns *-* HAHAHAHA. Had gela!to or isit ge!lato idk, wtv it's called for dessert! Bought the hazelnut one and since there's this 1-for-1 promotion, my mum bought the durian one! Ooooo, the hazelnut one is yummy!! Hehehe such a guilty night :x bused home after that! 

Sooo today's basically shopping and eating?? Hehe, can't wait for CNY where I can wear my new clothes! :p alright goodbye :-)

Movies

Watched like 4 movies so far, in like 2 days hahahaha xD Basically, these 2 days were sort of just my 'movie days'! 

I watched 'The Ring' and 'We are the Millers' at Cheryl's place yesterday, 'The Legend of Hercules' ytd at dte's cinema - it was a very impromptu one HAHA - and 'Devil's Due' tonight at century sq!! 

Hehe, that pretty sums up what I'd been doing yesterday and today! 

And oh,

Trying to read finish this 3rd book in the vampire academy series - in fact the 4th (last) book as well - before its movie comes out in the cinema!! Hehehehe. 

First time mixing the plain yogurt with some frozen berries (blue, black, strawberries) !!! Not used to the taste but oh well, that shall be one of my pre-workout snacks from now onwards!! :p

Going for another shopping trip to town with my mum again tmr!! Hoho bye bye :-)
