X-Mas Decoration 2008 in Orchard

During my 5 years studies in UTM, Johor I had never been to Orchard to celebrate or countdown Christmas, although JB and Singapore just a causeway across.

Since this year I start to work here of course no excuse for me to say never has the chance to feel the Christmas atmosphere. I won't celebrate my Christmas here because I had applied leave back Sekinchan to attend Mia Hee's and Aik Kah's wedding. Anyhow, Carol, Mervin, Hooi and I decided to go Orchard yesterday before Christmas eve. I think chrsitmas eve will be more crowded. Nowadays I feel myself seems getting older - no more countdown for me because I will feel headache to see many people.

Other Communities - Only managed to capture few communities

Fish n Co

This time we try on Fish n Co near my house - West Coast Plaza.

We had tried Seafood Platter for One. The portion was too big for one person but just nice for two person. Actually the platter only consist of squid, fish fillet, french fries and Mediterranean rice. Taste was so so, nothing special. I will still prefer Manhattan Fish Market (MFM) that we tried before in Malaysia. Anyhow, I still think Malaysia's food is the best! Sekinchan's seafood is the best!

Soup of The Day

Seafood Platter For One - $19.90

Passion Fruit - Carbonic drink actually - $5.50

Caramel Fudge Colossal - $6.95

There is one Fish & Co outlet in One Utama, Malaysia but i never try before..Should be almost the same ba..

Din Tai Fung

Once ranked as one of the Top Ten best Restaurants worldwide by The New York Times, the original Din Tai Fung in Taiwan has opened branches all over Asia and the United States.

I had never try Din Tai Fung in Singapore. Last week I managed to dine in Din Tai Fung, Midvalley, which is famous for the signature xiao long bao (small steam dumpling).

Appetizer (开胃招牌小菜) RM2

Carrot Juice RM6


Cha Jiang Ramen (炸酱拉面) RM12
Taste not bad. Maybe I don't really like minced pork.


Xiao Long Bao RM 8
I like it very much.


Shrimp Steam Dumpling (虾肉篜饺) RM10.80

I felt the skin too thick. Don't really like it.


Ginko Yam (白果芋泥) RM6.80
Very small portion, but taste absolutely good! I simply like it!


Added up 5% GST + 10% service charge = RM54.75.

X-Mas Decoration in One Utama

I like the X-mas decoration in One Utama this year. The theme for this year is Alice in Wonderland.
Long time didn't take photo with my dearest aunt. Do we look resemble each other?

Midvalley II

This year Christmas decoration in Midvalley, as if we are in the toy's world. However, the theme don't really impressed me!

Midvalley I

Bumped with Kai and Win in midvalley yesterday when had my tea break at Sweet Chat! What a small world can meet both my schoolmates when I did my shopping two days in KL! Our last meet was during Chinese New Year ba! They still the same, physical wise still the same, easy to recognize.

I don't know is it very common to bump up with some one we know in KL, at least I did it when i did my shopping in KL yesterday. There has been such a long time don't have such warmth feeling. Maybe I don't have much friends or more accurately is colleagues in Singapore. My friends are only the few colleagues in my office. That's all my world.Feel sad..

Finally Pick Up My Book

I managed to grab 3 books from Popular in City Square last weekend. There has been such an age i read book since i changed to my current job (just a lame excuse!).


1. The Last Lecture (最后的演讲) by Randy Pausch and Jeffrey Zaslow

2. The Alchemist (牧羊少年奇幻之旅)by Paulo Coelho

3. The Grand Overland Voyage II (彳亍地平线) by 林悦 and 林剑强


I didn't realize since when I like to read travel blogs and books. I bought The Grand Overland Voyage I few years ago. Then now bought the second series. One of my ex-colleague used to recommend me The Alchemist when I did my part time job in MPH bookstore last time. That time I had no time to read until I bought it myself now.

At least I can read up those books for few more months when I am on the way to work everyday. Perhaps i can finish them..perhaps..
