Celebrated Jun Wei and Quan Ming's birthday on the 17th March. Haha. Not too late for an update yet. Oops. Hee. Anyway, Da and I met Yi Xiang, Bao Wen and Kai Ling at Pasir Ris MRT where Yi Xiang drove us to Downtown East. On the way there, we saw Jun Wei and Quan Ming walking after they parked their car at the carpark. We headed to join them after Yi Xiang parked his car at the carpark opposite Downtown East. Can you believe it? At 7pm, the carpark at Downtown East was completely filled! Gosh. Probably cause it was a Saturday, and a lot of people were around that area as they had booked a chalet.

Headed to a Thai Restaurant called Basil Inn. It is a very small restaurant, and I really have no idea whether it is even considered a restaurant. Lol. =X Anyway, Bao Wen and Kai Ling have been there before so they ordered dishes for us. =) And the food there was actually very appetizing!! Didn't take a lot of food pictures cause everyone was too hungry and attacked the food at such a pace that I was too slow to get good shots. LOL!! =P

First up, was Beef Soup with Spinach. Quan Ming doesn't take beef so he didn't take the soup. The soup was very flavourful and the beef was very tender. =) Yummy!~

Pineapple Rice! And there was some added Pork Floss too! I <3 Pork Floss!! =D

I have no idea what this is called, but I think its some type of chicken wrapped in Pandan Leaves. The chicken was very succulent, and there wasn't a lot of bones present. Haha. Being a lazy person, I didn't really like meat with bones in them. Lol. =P

I think this was Pork. LOL. I kind of forgot, but this was very nice too! Hee.

Pad Thai!! Another Thai dish that I simply adore! The peanut bits really complemented the entire dish!!

The guys!

Us girls!~

After that, we headed over to the Cheesecake Cafe at Siglap for dessert. It's my first time going there! Actually photography of the decorations of the shop is prohibited but I didn't see the sign until I was done snapping a few photos of the shop. So, I'm not going to be posting any photos of the decorations of the shop, only those that have people in them. LOL! =X

Nice and delicious looking cakes! It's as if they are begging to be eaten. Lol! =P

I was rather amused by the ceiling. There were wine bottles up there. And I immediately thought of 高楼抛物! Lol.

Since there were 7 of us in total, we each had to buy something. Da and I ordered one cake and one latte. =)


Our cake had raisins in them. Quite a nice combination of chocolate and raisins. =) Hee. Our latte was really hot, almost scalded my tongue. =X

Other stuff ordered by the rest. =) Haha. Lighting wasn't very good, so some photos didn't turn out too good. =/

Us again!! =D Haha.

By the time we headed back, it was 12 midnight le. Ding-dong, the Cinderella (me) had to go home already. Haha. So we split up again, Yi Xiang fetched me home and later, fetched Da home. Haha. Gosh. I really want my own car. Haha. This shall be an unfulfilled wish till I hit the jackpot. Till then, public transport ftw~ Haha. SMRT, please don't die on Singaporeans in the upcoming future. LOL! =X

Headed over to Paradise Inn at NEX not too long ago, around the start of this month. Da's sister decided to treat us! So nice of her~ Haha. And because of that, I decided to buy her a birthday present on her birthday which was over a week ago~ Hee.

Anyway, dinner-ed with Da and his family. Felt so under-dressed in a quite classy restaurant until I saw how everyone was dressed too. Lol. =X Yupp, so Paradise Inn has a Chinese classics concept, with intricate details to their tableware and cutlery.

Also, we were given Boiled Peanuts as appetizers. If you do not wish to have them, you can tell the staff so and they will not charge the appetizers to your bill. =)

So on came the rest of the food~ We ordered a medley of meat and vegetables and soup. Didn't manage to capture a picture of the soup within the stylish pot, because the staff actually helped us to pour into 5(+1) bowls. So nice of them~ =) But no pretty pictures. Lol. =X

Steamed Minced Pork with Salted Fish & Water Chestnut

This was Da's sister's favourite dish. She immediately ordered this when she sat down. Haha. No points why she ordered this though. The minced meat is very juicy and tender. Along with the salted fish and water chestnut, this comes across as a very traditional dish that hasn't lost "its" touch. Yumyum~

Next up is my all-time favourite meat-dish! Sweet and Sour Pork!!


Ooh la la~ So chewy!! Simply love all sweet and sour pork dishes and this was no exception!! The onion and green capsicum was also very crispy. And if I was not wrong, there seems to be a type of fruit in there too, but I just could not put my finger on what it was. Lol!

Even though I hated that purple vegetable (eggplants), the way the eggplants were cooked didn't seem to turn me off. Haha. I even managed to eat 3 of those vegetables!! An achievement, well, for me that is. Haha. And Da was very proud of me! HAHA~

Last but not least,


Salted Egg Yolk Shrimps~ Ohgoly~ This is GOOOOOOD!! I was secretly quite depressed when there was only enough for one of us each. Haha. When I had a mouthful of the shrimp with the salted egg yolk, I just "floated". It was so heavenly~~ Sigh. I carn wait to have another bite and order this dish again when I go back!! Lol.

Ah, but all good food comes to an end, the bill wasn't too expensive either. It amounts to about $18 per person. But Da's sister was treating, so we kind of got a free meal! Hee. Anyway, we kind of repaid her the favour back by buying her Capitaland vouchers~ Haha.

Will update more about food! Haha~ There's still at least two more posts dedicated to people's birthdays, with many photos of food~ Till then!!

My uncle and his family from KL came over to stay during the CNY period. Did you know? The CNY holidays in Malaysia were about 1 week long!! I’m so envious! Lol. Anyway, there were 3 kids. The youngest little girl was so fun to make fun of. Yes yes, I know I’m an evil prat. Haha. =D But she kept wanting to come into my room and jumping on my bed. So must kajiao her more~

My Uncle and his family.

During the first day, my Mother’s side of the family will always gather at my Oldest Uncle’s house. Haha.
Took a photo with my cousin.

Quite a good haul this CNY. Haha. I also met Da’s father’s side of the family while he met my Mother’s side of the family. Quite a good “exchange”. Lol!

Anyway, will blog about other stuff when I upload more photos. So many long and overdue posts to talk about. Till then~ =)
