Bits & pieces in Singapore

Had a ordinary breakfast with my sister before starting our work in Suntec Convention Hall. =)


A friend of mine bring me for a walk at Orchard Road before we're going to Vivo City for meeting up another friend of mine.

Took this picture at ION Orchard. The shopping mall was full of branded goods, which bites our money. However, if you earning the local money, it should be okay!!!

The old man in red could spin the heavy beads on his waist. There was a newspaper cuts presented which it introduced about the old man.


The best chicken chop I had for the first time in my life till now!! It was crunchy and no oily feeling when we ate the chicken slices. Huixin ordered the add on chili for us & it was Scrumptious!!!!!!!!!!!!! We had those at Suntec City - the environment for me was food court look-a-like.
Want to have some more on my future trips to SGP.

Hmm~~~ Those foods that Huixin introduced me & my sister was superb!!!
The squid balls ---- Delicious. The yogurt ice cream -- Tempting!!

We are heading to the Japanese Restaurant and I passed Raffles Hotel which is the oldest hotel in Sgp. I saw Tiffany & Co., LV etc~~~~ Branded again!!

I'm sharing bits & pieces of places I went and snacks we had in few days!
There are more foods coming soon in the coming entries.

I see Red Banana in Sabah

Ate the red banana for the first time at Nabalu on my Kundasang trip with my parents and their friends.

It flesh is reddish in colour besides the normal yellow.

It is sweet and tastier compared to other types of bananas. Besides, we could find various types of bananas in Sabah.

Remember to have bananas one or two daily, it could cure our dry eye sickness (saw an article this morning about bananas), supplying energy to us and etc.

Good for us.

Pasta Mania at Vivo City, Singapore

In the end, the whole Singapore trip was packed with food food food!! and not much of visiting places such as Sentosa, Night Safari, Universal Studio etc...

Thanks to Huixin and her hubby for treating me dinner for two days!! I'm grateful and thanks to both of you!

Went to Pasta Mania for dinner on the second day I reached Singapore. Another friend of mine bring me for shopping and accompanying me from Suntec City to Orchard Road, and from Orchard to Vivocity just to meet them. Thank you Alex Teo!


I LOVE ITALIAN CUISINE!!


I had creamy chicken spaghetti for that night.


Garlic bread that could fill up our tummy in short period of time.



Mussel & clams spaghetti for the couple.


The pasta was GOOD. However, they told me that normally it wasn't that watery/ creamy.


The banana pizza was quite special, and it taste WOW~~~ I like it!! But I'm too fulll... to have another pieces.

The portion was enough for Asian like me though.

And the good news is we don't have to travel from places to places in Singapore to dine in. We either drop in at any shopping malls in Singapore or order for delivery and send to your doorstep in Singapore.

=)
Gee~~~ I want more in my second trip, and I want to eat my elder sister. Universal Studio if you know what I meant. *grin smile*

Evening Walk to Merlion Park, Singapore

On the same night and before we went for our Supper Buffet, we went to Merlion Park for a walk, it takes about 5 to 10 minutes walk from Esplanade.

We saw couples taking pictures along the way. AND photographer was taking wedding pictures too! Besides, we could see the "Eye on Singapore" (I can't remember what they called) which beside the fly-over.

I love the building structure in Singapore, although it is crowded with buildings, it still looks great!!

Opposite Merlion Park, we could see one of the casino building by Las Vegas.

Can you see two ships there? Smaller ship above (the building structure) and larger ship below (imagine with all those lights on with the three buildings). One of my friend work there, and she told me that the contractor lifted portion by portion to build the ship above. As I know, there is a park and swimming pool above there. Quite scary or extremely crazy if we look down from there. Oh my~~

Esplanade, Singapore

Visited Esplanade after we went to the food and travel fair at Suntec Convention Hall at night.

In Chinese, it's also called as the "Microphone of Singapore", is because of its building which looks like a microphone.


It was the home for arts and musics. I heard people was singing and performing outside the building when we were walking to the Merlion of Singapore.

As I know, once in a while/ every week, there were performance performed in and outside the building. It was amazing, and I love live bands for sure!

Picture: One of the art pieces inside the building which made from bamboos.

Picture: One of the best visual arts by the students.

p/s: Unfortunately, I didn't took the picture of Singapore Flyer which is behind Sunctec Building.

Away from the Rain at Hong Kong Tea House, Singapore

We went to Old Hong Kong Tea House at Katong for a drink before heading to Suntec Convention Hall for the food and travel fair exhibition which was the main purpose of my elder sister going to Singapore.

The tea house is fill with portraits of Hong Kong's singer from 60's, 70's or maybe 80's. I felt that it was quite warm inside when we sit there.


The menus they serve was quite extraordinary where the name was special too!!


The price was a bit expensive if we convert to our MYR. However, the price was okay for those who work in Singapore and earn SGP Dollar.


The bread was well- recommended by our friend. The texture was soft and the filling covered the bread was Yummy!! and with the cold butter, the bread is SUPERB!!

The drink --- 西洋菜蜜。(A type of vegetable with honey). It was sweet with honey and tasty too! The vegetable could cold down our body heat.


Fried Chu Cheong Fun. Wow~~ It was yummy. Quite special where it was my first trial for that dish.

Non the least, we could order varieties of rice, noodles, breads and others that we would like to fill up our tummy. * wink* ;)

As we seen, It was 24 hours operated.

p/s: I would like to go Singapore for more!!

【沙巴游】 亚庇 ： 城市观光 Fun in Sabah : Kota Kinabalu - City Tour

The journey continued after the breakfast.

As Sabahan, we should know some basic tourist spots when our friends all over the world seek for our opinions and answers.

We have mountain for us to CONQUER, we have sea for us to dive with the marine fishes. We have places which took within minutes to reach. ;)

Signal Hill, Kinabalu Park, Poring Hot Spring, Australian street, Gaya Street etc... But we only manage to visit a few places on our THP's city touring.

We went to Puh Toh Tze (Temple) again for our praying and it means that it was the end of Chinese New Year 2010. And we need to wait until the next year (2011) to see all these auspicious lion dances, family/ relatives gathering and other events too.



The temple was crowded with people, not only us but also tourists all over the world on that day. They were lucky to be there, enjoying the day which not all of the tourists might saw. =)

Yayasan Sabah /Menara Tun Mustapha (F.K.A. Sabah Foundation building). One of the oldest building and the tallest in Sabah, with 32 floor and the view up there was amazing at night.


I did went to Atmosphere - The revolving restaurant and bar with some friends at night (two weeks ago), which is the "spinning restaurant" on the 18th floor, and in the 1980's or 1960's, it was called the 32nd floor restaurant. The environment was relaxing, and I will post it in future entries. So... stay tune!

The third destination -- 1 Borneo, the largest shopping mall in town for a walk. My mom love to go to Daiso for Japanese goods, which cost RM5.00 for all the goods sold.


We did went to our State Mosque for a short photograph session, didn't manage to went in there for a visit. My dad told me that tourists are required to wear a gown if we visit inside the building.


We manage to go to the above few destinations only. TIME CONSTRAIN!! We need to rush for our annual lunch at Promenade Hotel for buffet.

The food served was interesting, and weird for some... However, overall it was okay. and I love the chicken soup!! Took few bowls for that!


My mom had few of the Prawn Cocktail. She like it though.

Can't wait for the next holiday and going places as usual.

p/s: Singapore, I'm coming to you real soon!
