food is my way to go ;)

christmas this year is a wee bit different from the last couple of years..

firstly, mel's not in sg to spend this jolly season with serene and i..

2ndly, i've chose not to walk along orchard road like what we used to do. partly because their absence didn't give me an extra reason to torture myself on the street that promises tons of stories always - especially from those who complain of molestation incidents. i've even got my own to tell - thanks to an idiot who sprayed foam directly into my eye when i was just walking along and looking at the christmas lights. before i knew it, my eye naturally teared to its heart's content. there was nothing i could to do stop it, or even control it. what a booboo.

aniwae. doodoo and i shared a great meal at Sumo-Ya ;) their tempura green-tea ice-cream is a definite must-try! and i can't get enough of their katsu-don.. ooh! *squeals and jumps around in delight!* its just the sticky-rice rice bowls that make jap food a pleasure ;) just like the ones at yoshinoya :D those are abt the only things i love abt jap food.. NO sushi for me!

and also.. we savoured my all-time favourite Chinese Cuisine @ Crystal Jade @ Holland V ;) the sauteed beef with mushroom (a chef's recommendation) was simply bee-liciouss! woops. delicious :D its indescribable. we also ordered the deep-fried prawns with salad sauce... OOH is the only word for it! a pity their mango pudding was substandard and just wayyyy different from the one we had at the great world branch. the holland v one was just urrrgh!... a struggle to finish. it was starchier and stickier than the GWC one, such that when your spoon went into the pudding, it was almost-difficult to scoop out. the texture was a goner and it just wasn't as smooth and easygoing as the GWC one. and besides, it all just tasted weird. doodoo agreed so it wasn't my imagination alone!

to my dearest doodoo, if only every day was christmas. ^-^

i've been eyeing these spectacular Melissa T-bar sandals for quite some time now ;) and i finally got them today. Mine are in White.. and i discovered that they retail for a whopping $119 on their website! Melissa has got such beautifully-cute footwear that i can't resist! I regretted it when i didn't manage to grab a pair of their kitten heels. they just flew off the shelf like God knows what.

i never knew how popular Melissa footwear was until i visited their USA, Brazillian and Australian websites and viewed their products that were published in various magazines and stuff like that. their jelly and plastic stuff were like recommended all over the place and best of all, seen on the runway ;) what a discovery.
