Ladies and Gentlemen,

Recommendation for the week...

AZABU SABO JAPANESE RESTAURANT AT MARINA SQUARE LEVEL 1
(located next to Billy Bombers' and MacDonalds)

I came this restaurant like 3 weeks ago, after a hearty dinner (FYI, all my dinners are hearty) with Piggy. We were exploring the newly opened area of the shopping centre when Piggy commented that there was this restaurant with a lousy name called "SABO". Sabo as in Sabo King, you know. Hahaha. Curiously, we checked it out and...

WOW! The first thing I saw was the ice -kachang like strawberry sundae in the display window... Woooo....

We both stood in front of the display and went like "Oh, I like this!", "This one looks good!", "What's this?", "Next time I come, I wanna order this, this, this and THIS!"

We vowed to try it out one day...

And ta-da! On the day of Munich, we happily prepared (this time, with an empty stomach) for Sabo.

I ordered a minced beef and vegetable rice with omelette soup while Piggy had the teriyaki chicken bento. Wow... the food looks as good as it looks! Piggy commented, though, that the bento was too shallow, so guys, or frens with bigger appetities, you might wanna consider alternatives.

The minced beef and vegetable rice was absolutely delicious, imagine 梅菜扣肉 on rice.... Omelette was em, not that fantastic though. I had expected it to have some kinda filling or watsoever, but nah, just plain omelette in soup.

For dessert, we shared a vanilla ice-cream on sweet potato with green tea. Heavenly... who would have expected that the combination of sweet potato with ice-cream would be so great? Cold, milky vanilla ice-cream on a semi-warm sweet potato croquette, topped with a bit of green tea syrup. An unforgettable experience.

Last but not least, I have to specially say, the lady boss (I speculated she was because she was the only one around not in uniform, serving customers) is a 气质美女! (Soo, take note. Dunno if she's taken though, so good luck!)

Since that visit, I've become addicted to that place. I went back a second time the following week, this time armed with my new baby- Canon IXUS 60! Woohoo~ You all are in luck! Here's what was ordered this time...

MAIN COURSES








DESSERTS







Before anyone starts entertaining wild thoughts, I didn't order all these for myself loh! Went with 2 other pple lah! *Cold stare*

Anyway, I heard from one of my colleagues that this restaurant came from Taiwan. No wonder! (for the fusion between Chinese and Japanese.)

You all gotta check it out! No eat also must go see the 气质美女老板娘...

A Friend's Visit

Being a friendly and helpful Aunty, my mummy volunteered as a nanny to her colleague's bunny while the whole family went for a holiday in Australia.

Being the daughter of the friendly and helpful Aunty, I was given the sacred task of ensuring that our guest was well taken care of, because our nice, friendly and helpful Aunty forgot that she has to go to work?

Initially, we wanted to put the 2 bunnies together, (a gentle reminder that I too own, not by any coincidence watsoever, a rabbit.) but, the over-friendliness of dear Rara shoke our little friend a bit.

Me and mummy decided to separate the 2 of them. After all, I don't want risk:

1. having Rara develop any kinda feelings during his short stay here and be left lovelorn when kaypoh Aunty's colleague collects him back later.
2. having our dear cute bunny friend became a victim of rape.

It's not such a good move to separate them, I soon realised. Feeding time became hectic time. Being a hospitable host, I decided to feed our guest first.

Alright, let me see...
Diet: Green vegetables.

Huh? Just green vegetables ah? God, he doesn't take carrots? No pellets? No bananas??? Hmm.. easy to feed sia. I watched him munch up the leaves with great pleasure.. So cute! Per my usual practice for feeding Rara, I wanted to pull out the stalk after he finished the leaves BUT, he went on to munch up all! Including the stalk! Alamak! What a good little boy! No food wastage at all. Totally not like Rara. Her machine gun mouth automatically stops the moment she detects end of leave and beginning of stalk. I'm beginning to like him...

In the midst of feeding our friend, the terror on the other side of the house started protesting. I hear her stampings of her foot, scratching of partitions, and aggressive lifting and dropping of her cage door. Damn. A hungry and jealous rabbit is not to be trifled with.

I quickly shoved one big stalk of vegetables into good little bunny friend's cage and went on to "serve" the little princess. As usual, feeding her was a time consuming and tiring event. You gotta keep your hands still, for she cannot tolerate hovering carrots and vegetables. You can't leave her to eat on her own, for she only eats with family around.

Well, you might think that it's no big deal feeding just 2 rabbits, but what happens if the nice and cute bunny friend's vegetables dropped out of his cage? Shit. I had to soothe and calm my Rara down, run 10-12 metres over to the other side to "recover" the fallen leaves and run all the way back to attend to princess. And just after settling down back with Rara, our bunny friend's vegetable's dropped again! Tamade. I did the thru and fro like "n" times. Boy was I panting and sweating from it all.

That's not all. Our cute little bunny friend took on the characteristics of a domestic rabbit really well. He scringes at the slightest bit of sound and would start hiding in the corner of his cage thereafter. I kept my decibel index at a whole year low point for the entire day. I swear, I almost made it to the Guniness World of Records.

Munich

Went to catch Munich yesterday. Not too bad, was better than what I had expected. No bumpy camera scenes and no excessive conversations and bloodshed. Good.

Munich (pronounced as "Miu Nick", not "Moo Nudge") is a place in Germany, not the name of somebody. Haha.

I find it rather intriguing though, that, they had Chinese subtitles whenever the actors and actresses spoke in English, and when they turned to Hebrew, there were no subtitles! No wonder I left the cinema with a sense of incompleteness. Duh.

Overall moral of the story- 冤冤相报何时了.

It's been a really long long time since I felt soooooo tired. I went all goggly at 6pm last evening, a result of not having slept a wink the night before. I used to be able to "thon" for 2 nights in a row... for chalets especially. Age must be really catching up.

It's kinda an irony that, the times where we spent never-ending hours slogging our guts out is before retirement, and studies have shown and proven that old people do not need much sleep. Too much work and deprived of sleep during younger days, no work and cannot sleep when we're grey.. What the hell??

I realised that nowadays, I blog with plenty of "I"s. "I" this, "I" that... This could only mean one thing... I'm turning into a self centred freak! Argh...

OR,

My life revolves about nothing else but myself. But, that's sounds logical. Of course MY life revolves about ME. If not, then WHO?

It's all a contradiction again. I'm confused again. I'm confusing my readers again.

This entry is so incoherent that I've decided to stop.
