'Joey's Blog'

Hi, haven't been consistently updating this site. Here, I'm back to update another post that I missed out over the weekend. Has been very busy with work and hardly catch my breathe when Pri school started their school term. #perksofbeingareceptionist

Reporting to work at 7am and having to wake up at 4.30am everyday allowed me to have my hair loss, heavy eye bags and ugly face complex. I feel haggard for a moment and can't wait for my weekend to arrive to catch up with my sleep. Needa return my sleeping debt soon.

Oh, I still owe another post of my Ho chin minh travelogue ( Day 3) and now i'm thinking of when should I update that. Prolly lazy and lost the feel of remembering what I have done on Day 3. Let me get some feel before I type out a decent post. I don't wanna pissed my readers off by saying rubbish things.

So last Sunday, I fetched Bf home from his campsite and we decided to have lunch together at Changi Village. Our intention is to have some cheap thrill food at their hawker centre and cafe doesn't seem alright for us in Changi neighbourhood. 

However, while we were on the way to the hawker centre, we came across a small cafe located and me being so typical, bugged my bf to dine in there. HAHA. The inner cafe-hunt of me appeared and Bf has already gave up on disciplining me to have cafe food. I WIN!

The impression of this is small and quiet, but it gave a cosy home feeling that both of us enjoyed having our lunch there and people-watched. "Im alittle tea pot, short and stout.'' I simply love their Alice in the wonderful land decoration.

Got caught red-handed for checking lottery under daylight! This gambler must maintain ah! How dare he checked his lottery at a muslim cafe although it was not certified halal yet? Hahahaha.

Food that we ordered: Nasi Lemak which was surprisingly good. Their sambal chilli was a sex! It goes very well with the rice and ikan bilis. 

The long awaiting of their egg cupcakes was served after 20 mins later because it has to go through an oven with certain temperature to bake the eggs, and ensuring the egg yolk doesn't flow out. Nothing special about this dish although it was so well-recommended by the chef.

Lastly, my peanut butter chocolate cake was served next and this was my best dish for the day! I guess the finest tea shop cafe served best on their coffee and cakes. I suggested one should come here for a high tea session.

Another well-spent weekend with you, my dear boy (:

Till then

He arrived earlier than me so I asked him to venture around Changi Village to look for a nice place to eat. Was deciding between cafes or hawker centre and my last decision went to hawker centre as I'm quite sick of eating cafe food. 

Along the whole stretch of hawker centre, there were many stalls selling the the same food, From the start to the end, I counted 7 of the stalls selling Nasi Lemak and this caught me in between of which stall to choose.

In the end, I supported the first stall "Mizzy corner" as recommended by Bf's friend. The queue was the longest among the rest of the Nasi lemak's stalls and upon queuing for the food, I could see the stall-holder busy frying the chicken wings. This means my chicken wings came in piping hot!

As you can see from the board that there are different sets of Nasi lemak. I chose Set A which consists of Chicken Wings, Sunny side up, Ikan bilis and sambal chilli which costs $3.50.

The rice was fragrant, I could sniff the pandan smell in the rice! The chilli came in with sweetness and less spicy and the chicken wings was fried crispy and not oily at all. Overall, it was a satisfying meal.

Bf was craving for Satay so badly and he went to order 20 sticks of satays ( 10 chicken, 10 mutton)! "20 sticks can finish meh?'' This was my reaction when the satays were served on our table and confidently he said he can finish it. Anyway, I was asking why he never order PORK satay then I realised it was from a muslim stall. Imagine he went there and ask the aunty for Pork meat? I guess he will receive a slap from her!

After our full dinner, we thought of having a brisk walk before he returned back to the ferry terminal. We headed over to the nearby park and sat down to enjoy the night sea breeze. Lucky the weather was on a windy side, no perspiration required but mosquitoes are everything to sting me. We had our H2H talk as we miss each other's presence during that long 2 weeks! Needa more catch up about our lives. 

When the night came by later, we have no choice but to depart with one another again. But fret not as we are meeting the next evening. I sent him off to his ferry terminal and took a bus back to my home.

Simple dinner like this is more than enough <3

Till then.
