You Are What You Eat

I was bored to the bone =_=
It's only been 3 days since I've been here. Home.
Jakarta, Indonesia.
Metropolitan, cosmopolitan city. Blargh. Who am I kidding..
I admit I got a bit cranky these days.
I haven't been accustomed to the slower motion of people here.
Kinda miss quick paces in Singapore where everything and everyone
seems move toward wherever they are going quickly.

Okay so now I'm in my mom's office
(Indonesian Stock Exchange Building, right opposite Pasific Place Mall)
To cut the story short, I've been staring at my bb helplessly.
Wtf, I was in 30th story here AND I got no signal?? (see, cranky. LOL)

Didn't know what else to do, I plugged my bb to the laptop.
Surprised by how many pictures of FOOD I've taken in 2 short months.
These are foods I frequently eaten at Singapore.

_____________________________________________________


Main Course

I love ramen.
I lovelovelovelove just love ramen. LOL

Tampopo Ramen at 313 on Somerset ( Original Kyushu Ramen + sgd15)
Located on the ground floor right next to Cold Storage Specialty
The soup is so.. porky. The place also nice and quite cozy.



This Ramen also came from Tampopo Ramen on 313.
(forgot the ramen name)
Edwin ordered it. He loves anything fried. Just like Nana does. LOL

The most famous ramen in Japan, Santouka.
Forgot the name of the ramen but not the price. LOL
It's sgd25.
Located in Clarke Quay Central, second floor if I'm not mistaken.
The char siew was super sinful. Full of cholesterol.
I enjoyed every bite of it.
The soup and tamago (boiled egg) is very tasty.
But for the ramen itself, I still like Marutama's more.
(ahh.. I don't have Marutama's picture on my bb T.T)



This is Katsu Curry Don (sgd5 or 6) from Sumo House, Clementi.
I think it's the cheapest Japanese restaurant ever.
Actually I prefer Chicken Teriyaki Don.
This one is Nana's favorite. She never missed to order this one. LOL


Wait! Don't get me wrong here.
I also LOVE western food.

Appetizer
Mushroom Soup (sgd4) from Astons Specialty.
Located on the 3rd or 4th story of The Cathay n Dhobby Ghaut.
Came with crunchy garlic breads. Yumm.



Main Course
Chargrill Chicken. Side dish : onion rings and mashed potato (sgd6)
Also came from Astons Specialty.
(I never missed out eating here when watching movies at The Cathay)
This is the cheapest western food I ever know (in Singapore of course)
The taste is so worth the price. You won't regret eating here.
Especially for students with limited allowance. Like us. LOL



Errr, I can't remember the name of this pizza,
but it surely came from RITE PIZZA.
The girls and I often order it on rainy days,
when we were too lazy to go outside, when we had special occasion,
actually, whenever we feel like it :D
Oh yeah, I forgot. It's very cheap.
You got 2 pizzas by paying sgd23 for the medium.



KFC Snackers : Pop Corn Chicken with cheese from Popeye's
Comes in small packages, NOT healthy, but yes, keep ourselves full.
I remember enjoying this snacks while studying for, something.
Yes, back then it was exam period.



Besides those delicious YET unhealthy food above,
we often cooked. Not we. Some of us.
Nevertheless, we always eat together, don't we? :P

Capcay, meat soup, fuyung hai, fried luncheon pork.
Created by Stanley and Elsa.
I contributed the meat and the fried luncheon pork.



Aglio Olio with paprika, boursin, and cheese.
Roasted mushroom with boursin.
This was Kelyn's. She got the idea of cooking aglio olio since months ago.
But due to exam.. =_= yeaaa you know, we had to study blablabla..



Chicken steak with English sauce, capcay, cheese tofu and meat soup.
Once again cooked by Stanley and Elsa.
All I can say is..
"KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!" lol


Seafood at Pulau Ubin
(from bottom left : lemon chicken for Edwin who dislike seafood,
prawn with oatmeal, spicy fried squid, cah kangkung =))
I especially loved the oatmeal prawn. nice..


THE ULTIMATE DESSERT
I don't know exactly what's happening between woman and dessert.
We're just soooo into it. LOL

Frolick.
I usually buy those in Cathay Cineplex or the one in Holland Village.
Love these three toppings : strawberry, kiwi, and oreo.
Oo I just can't stay away from oreoo..!



Max Brenner's desserts are always the best!
This one called : SUCKAO.
An ordinary hot chocolate drinks.
What makes it extraordinary is, it's DIY.
You mixed the chocolate buttons little by little to the slowly heated milk.



Intense double choco fudge cake :)
I don't have to explain how nice it is.
Just see yourself :P better TASTE it yourself! LOL

When God Made a Promise

“I know this is too fast. And please don’t ask me why, because I don’t have the answer. I don’t know why.” “I won’t ask you why. Because I know.. It’s God.”   Wkwkwkwkwwkwkwkwkww duh supershy padahal biasanya ga tau malu. I’m still getting used to this. But those who viewed our IG feed and saw the pic posted in FB would know what this is all about. The Promise of God. It’s been there, mentioned the wholeee time in my earlier posts, yet unnamed. I’ll try to recall the whole story. Some details would be lost in translation because there are wayyyy TOO MANY. Haha. Fyi. I’VE BEEN WAITING SOOO LOOOONG TO SHOUT THIS OUT LOUD. So, here goes. Last Sunday, R asked me out to dinner. A few days before, he’s mentioned this fancy place and I calmly (I think) said, “Yes, yes why not” while inside I was [insert screaming emoji here] knowing that this is not a normal dining experience. OMG. I was so glad it’s through a text message, otherwise he would see ...

My Miracle

So this weekend, my mom and Febe was in town. In fact, I've just sent them off a few hours ago. WOW! Wow God wow! That's all I can say.. I'm loving every second I spent with the two. Good food, good times. But above them all, good talk. The best kind of talk where God is so evident, so powerful, so ever-present, in everything that we said. Sometimes we tend to talk about God's miracle like it was so far away, so abstract, when actually it is right there in front of us. So tangible, we can grasp it with our hands. For example, when Febe mentioned about Dad and the accident and his sickness. We can see how God allowed his pride to be crushed. And out of a new-found humility, God shaped His character : more Christ, less of himself. I knew who my dad was, and I know who he is now. And all I can see is miracle written all over him. Through the worst the world can assume, God brings in His best for our good. Not to mentioned how God put a heart o...

I Used to be Love Drunk

Nahh.. I'm not gonna bragging about love drunk or such. That's the song I'm listening while studying now. LOL. I'm such a multitasker. Ever heard a quotation about love that inspired you so much you can be a poet over night? I think it's true. I've been there. Trust me, I know. When the love I felt was so, so, so overwhelming almost physically. Yes, I think love's one hell of emotion that can make human do brave, crazy, stupid stuff. Love is good. Indeed. But love also destructive. (See Helen of Troy. Stupid Paris, what was he thinking?? Lust maybe. Not love. Whatever. I wasn't there) Anyhow, after some deep thinking, I can also add one more strong emotion that motivate human to do braver, crazier, stupid-er stuff than love do. It is hurt, i think. A bruise on your heart. That can be healed over time, or not. At least, that was the thing that inspired me more than falling head over heels in love. See the evidence below. so what. if u can put your finger ...
