Volcano molten chocolate cake with vanilla ice-cream.
Yesterday we went to explore a new shopping mall, Pelangi sq of JB.
Yes I know it's an ancient mall, but we've never been there despite driving past umpteen times! Therefore, we decided to settle our breakfast cum lunch at this little old mall...
The fashion are generally more 'malay' inclined. But the cold storage supermarket is quite clean n pleasant to walk around. Makan-wise also not bad, got Japanese food like sushi king & one more(I forgot the name) which look quite grand. Western food consists of Nandos, Season Cafe & Vivo.
Our stomach didn't allow us to decide too long and it's Vivo who won!
The satisfying look speaks for itself...
He ordered a pepperoni pizza with Citrus watermelon juice, me creamy mushroom spaghetti, us honey grilled 3 joint wings & (see title).
I didn't finish my portion as usual. Damn sian, I cannot eat a whole plate of anything creamy can I?
I think most of us have this habit of ordering something which you KNOW for sure cannot finish! But somehow will self hypnotize that I can eat 2 plates! Blame the photographer who brings out the deliciousness through picture! =x
~I don't know how many 'food pail' I have accumulated according to Jennifer...=(
Anyway, let's back to track.
The pizza crust was thin yet soft to chew on, pepperoni was generously spread. It has this unique aroma, we conclude that they must have added some spice.
The Honeyed BBQ chk wing nap nap! I don't want to put pics because it doesn't justify the flavor at all! As a veg lover and seldom chicken-eater, I savored 2 without much struggle(sorry my dear if you were expecting to eat 3 alone! =p).
A meal without dessert is like a man die without a son, incomplete.
Ok, I exaggerated. This molten lava cake as u can see, the hot choco fudge will spill out like a volcano eruption. I guess that's how the name came by..
Must be eaten with the ice-cream, obviously single scoop is not enough... =_='' It's thick, rich & sweeeeeeeet, finish this ALONE at your own risk...
But overall I am still contented & grateful for this meal, thanks... =D
Best buy of the day:
Camel Active@RM210 only!!
An old couple took fancy on this luggage, while they taking another one to compare they put this back to it's original place, probably thinking that no one will take. Hahaha, too bad! I took it and make payment within 10 mins!
Aww, the thought of the disappointment on their faces... But don't care! =p
So proud of my loot...

Ginko nut with Barley & Bean curd skin
I usually don't like Chinese hot dessert like sesame, almond paste because it's too sweet and thick for me.
But there is this particular type which I love, Ginko nut with Barley & Bean curd skin. So far those that I have tried from hawker center, dessert shop were so-so only until yesterday...
$2.50 a bowl was a little steep, but given the atmosphere and efficiency of the staff, I think it's still acceptable! =D
Beside traditional dessert, they offered a wide range of ice-blended snow flake, mango pomelo etc. Their ba-Chang, radish cake, yam cake & pumpkin cake looks very delicious as well...
Their shop is located at Temple Street Chinatown opposite MacDonald. Looking for seats might take awhile if crowded but service is fast and efficient.
I always hear people say,
Dessert will make u feel happier and brighten up your day.
Hence, have a bowl of dessert after meal this weekend and tell me if it's true!

'味香园' from Temple Street at Chinatown
Usually the soup is clear, but this one is milky white. It gave this extra fragrant taste to it. Not too sweet, definitely good for elderly as well.
The bean curd & ginko nuts weren't a lot but it blended so well together.

Mos Warrior!
For those who whin about work abt 100 times a day, please take a look below...
This lovely man is working at Mos burger, Bishan junction 8. I was a bit shocked at first when I saw him, so I decided to take some pics. There were few people behind the queue, they must be thinking that I am crazy! Hahaha..
Btw, I had a hard time trying to figure out his name because his name tag was facing downwards. I keep squatting to take a better look, his name is Uncle Hock Khin! =D
Although elderly should be enjoying at home, working part time to earn some extra penny isn't too bad right? It makes them feel useful by contributing to the society. If they still have the ability to work, we should welcome them with opening arms and a HUGE smile!
Oh did I mention that he speaks good english too? =p
Uncle hock khin, please continue in what you're doing. You look fab & I have great respect for you! ^_^

Mr Bean...
Recently I've been in love with bean...
I am talking abt the Mr Bean that sells yummy soya milk and pancakes!
Not long ago, I happened to chance upon their outlet at yishun ktp hospital. I was attracted by the cute cute little beanie items inside.
Bean's magnet $1.90
This is the tote bag I just bought, cute & useful to the max! Very soft and comfortable cotton fabric with a small compartment inside, how thoughtful!
It even comes in a beautiful gift pack, only $4.90.
I had decided to support local entrepreneur starting from Mr bean! Are you with me? =D

新加坡，45岁生日快乐！
今天是建国45周年，愿大家天天开心。有钱是好事，但身体健康更重要啦！！ =）
在两个星期前就想写一些有关最近所看到和体验的感触。本来想用iphone来写，可是现实是如果你想发表长篇大论的话，还是用电脑比较实际的啦！
过去一年当中，我有许多与小孩和青少年接触与互动的机会。有好有坏，我发觉他们好像是从同一个模子印出来的。每个人仿佛都在互相模仿，如果你不照做，就会被排挤和孤立。当然，我并不是一竹竿打翻全船人，只是举例说明而已。
我觉得最有问题的是他们的态度 和价值观。
有些青少年连面对长辈最基本的尊重都没有。我知道，社会和学校都有在提倡父母亲尽量和子女建立朋友般的关系，这样能使得沟通变得容易一些。可是我们好像忘了毕竟这些长辈还是比我们多活了几十年呀！有时候他们难免罗嗦了些，但我想出发点不是想害我们吧？所以我们对他们说话的态度是否应该自我检讨呢？
这些青少年有着一种自以为是的想法，以为天塌下来有父母顶着。做错事还满口自我解围的道理，听了有时真想痛扁他们一番！
生气，并不是觉得自己比起他们有多么的好，而正因为我深深体会到将来一定会对现在的所作所为后悔。在失去以前，你不会知道有个人在你身边提醒你，引导你是有多么的幸福和重要。
记得在我十多岁的时候，有一次和姐姐起争执，为的好象是父母偏心之类的吧。（我常常爱说父母比较疼爱她） 她对我说：‘你从来只关心父母给你多少，给你什么，不给你什么，答应了你什么，又做到了什么。但你有没有问过你自己到底你给了他们什么？有时他们不说你，是希望有一天你会觉悟，而不是同意你的做法。当你想要要求某些东西时，难道不需要做出一点成绩来证明什么吗？我不是指这是一种交易，但是这也是最基本的道理不是吗？对，我承认在某些程度上，我是比你享有更多。虽然这不是要故意针对你，但是我也的确拥有比你优异的成绩，对父母和老师应有的尊重还有良好的纪律。我这样做不是为了物质上的追求，而是真正体会到父母的辛苦！’
因为爱面子的关系，我又用一些无聊的道理混过，假装她的话对我一点影响都没有。事实是，这句话的确让我感触很深，姐姐从来都不会对我说这些。每一个字都说到我的心坎里，每一句都像是无形的藤编，打下去痛再也会忍着。。。
现在的小孩多数都在物质上都不缺乏，可是心理上就不敢苟同了。围绕在先有鸡还是先有蛋的争论，到底是大人们因该对现有的社会现象负起责任，还是小孩必须变得更成熟更有自制能力？ 我想不管是家长，老师，社会大众，小孩本身，都因该做好自己的本分。就算不能做到尽善尽美，但也求无愧于心吧！
说时易做时难，让我们一起努力让新加坡的为来变得更有憧憬，更加美好吧！=)
