Leisurely Sunday

Met Karel for lunch and to spend the day together. Went to Shokudo Japanese Food Bazaar located B1 of Raffles City...really like the place as the food is fabulous, nice ambience and there's so much to choose from! There's japanese and western food, order charged to card, payment at the cashier, similar to Marche. Missed out on the sushi photos cos was too tempted by it to start eating...=D
Japanese style Bacon & Cheese Omelette...yummier than expected...

Gyoza, shitake mushroom, yakitori and beef + veg skewers Dango Fizzy fruit drinks...prefer the peach flavored instead of the strawberry.

Walked over to Asian Civilisation Musuem, he had to guide me as i wasn't really sure of the way, just a rough idea of the direction..so ironical, having a foreignor guiding a local...;P
Popped by at the Arts House and caught a mini exhibition on pop art. Couldn't resist taking a few shots with these local brands made into household stuff...=D

I love white rabbit sweets...(Seated on Jacobs biscuits couch, surrounded by Maggi mee cushions and Dynamo lamps!)

Take a break...
ACM had the Vietnam special exhibitions amongst other exhibits and entry was free for today. Spent quite a long time touring the different galleries, sitting down finally as we heard there was story-telling of Vietnam fables. After the story-telling session, there was a traditional vietnam band performing folk music and also playing traditional vietnam instruments. Totally amazed by the main guy who could use a common leaf like a flute, plays a flute with no holes for different notes (controls the pitch by hand movements closing the ends of the flute, could even play with 2 such flutes at the same time!) and finally using 10 different stones as a xylophone...
Bought 2 dragonflies as it could balance on just the tip of it's nose before walking over to Makansutra's Gluttons Bay to have our dinner. Tried the famous satay and also hokkien mee...very tasty just a bit pricey cos of the location. Went to Marina Square to get tickets for 《Prince Caspian》. The movie would only start at 850pm so we had time to get a drink at Starbucks. Tried the hot chocolate and it's not too sweet...nice for cold weather...The movie lasted 2.5 hrs and some scenes reminded me quite abit abt LOTR. The main lead, Prince Caspian's looks good and has the charm. Shared a cab home and conked out by 140am...

One of my fave food...tasty but can't take too often!!!
