Something specially for me 2007-06-07 13:58:00 Having spent more than one month of effort and time, i think i should give this incredible artist a special credit mention.Visit the original post here: http://the-download-munkey.blogspot.com/2007/06/finally-its-done.html 男友一直吵吵嚷嚷,说正在忙着进行他的Project X,我就笑他别做了,因为我就知道没有惊喜的。他坚持表示:这是最有创意的求婚方法。吵了一个月,他就直说很忙,我也尽量不去拆穿他,男人最讨厌的就是太聪明的女人,所以我是会做的。那天他就若无其事地叫我去一个网站,由于工作太忙了我一直都没有去。原来这个傻瓜把我们这两年所经历过的点点滴滴,从我住在C,他送我回家然后我们再公园看星星吹风,然后很累得自己坐1小时的尾班车回家;拜访我家人;到香港玩;和他家人吃饭;在C的家一起煮饭;我带他去看表演;我们的首个约会等,以最纯真(应该是最粗糙吧)的方
Review of Pasta N Grill - Carbonara 2007-06-10 02:40:00 Tried Carbonara at my office's food court (very small food court, only 5 stalls) Pasta
N Grill
, as i recalled there were food writers i met in the media events mentioned about it not only once.It was $4 and the portion was just nice for a small-eater like myself.The texture of the pasta is just right and the cream sauce is so creamy!!Melissa said she don't like the minced garlic in it, however i think garlic can enhance the flavour and.... it is good for health? ha.Amelia tried Pasta Planet #01-82 Golden Mile Food Centre, and her Carbonara cost her $4.50 (though the portion is bigger) but i still think my pasta has thicker and creamer sauce... no matter how, i will definitely try the pasta she tried next time.Rating: 7 / 10Pasta N Grill371 Beach Road, KeypointPhone: 9745 0028

Kotobuki Restaurant over priced and not tasty 2007-06-12 11:32:00 After my shooting at The Central, we walked to Liang Court to see whether there is things to eat at this empty castle and discovered a Japanese restaurant, Kotobuki Restaurant.We really though that it was a nice restaurant selling authentic Japanese cuisine......We ordered Califonia Maki ($10) , it was crab sticks and avocado maki sushi wrapped with fish roe, 8 pieces, as our starter.However we were too starved, didn't manage to take any picture of it.Perhaps my taste bud haven't recovered (gotto appy medicated eye-drops 4 times a day which will leave a bitter after taste), so the maki didn't really surprise me.I ordered Niku Udon ($12) which was a Beef udon with Shoyu soup. The beef was a bit thickly sliced and the udon was too chewy until i can't manage to bite it well. $12 for 5 - 6 slices of beef and 2 pieces of crab cakes, was really a bit of a let down.Munkey ordered Miso Ramen ($12) which was a miso paste soup cooked with a little sliced vege.... tasted a scoop just didn't
$5 value set at Ichiban Boshi 2007-06-16 01:22:00 Happened to be at Ichiban Boshi Japanese Restaurant in Esplanade Mall on weekdays at 4.30pm, surprisingly found that they have “3 – 5.30pm value set” promotion for only $5. Therefore we decided to try out how value for money it is.There was a lot to choose from the menu, I was constantly distracted by their Nabeyaki, don set, assorted sashimi and all the sushi rolling in front of me!I finally decided to order the value set, as it was a rare opportunity to drop by the area during weekdays really. My order was Chicken Teriyaki Shoyu Ramen (I always like Shoyu base soup) with egg, mixed vege, side with 2 pieces of gyoza….. and it was only $5!!!!!Also found from the menu that their Niku Udon only selling $9.90 for a restaurant located in Esplanade, which I think is quite reasonable…. Better than the one I tried at Liang Court….Munkey ordered Chasoba & Unadenki Chawanmushi Wasen, what’s inside this $17.90 set, obviously were wheat cold noodle, side with Unagi rice and chawanmu
到 Red white pure 红白纯用餐 2007-06-17 21:11:00 养生,保健成为时尚概念,不断变化的健康养生概念诠释着现代人对生活与生命的热爱。由保健产品老字号余仁生首开先河所开创的现代天然养生馆Red White & Pure,从今年头开业以来,简约与现代装饰的店面,就已经吸引不少人潮的注目。Red White & Pure沿用中医针灸为基本,进而创研出现代化,并且普罗大众都能接受的养生概念之天然养生馆。这位于怡丰城2楼的Red White & Pure,共有两楼,在现代简约的间隔之下,可分隔成5大特区——Treasure、Taste、Tonic、Terrace、Treat和Touch,是5大养生概念的关键,与 “五行” 养生之说更是息息相关。这种做法不但让中医针灸走向博大精深,与现代时尚生活习惯与文化结合,与天南地北的中西饮食文化结合,成为集合“视、听、嗅、味、触” 五感疗法的美疗养生体系,颠覆了人们一贯对“中药”就等于“传统”的观

Barnacles水波荡漾 2007-07-04 19:39:00 喜欢到新开餐厅兼酒吧Barnacles的感觉,餐厅林立在圣陶沙岛上,落地窗外的夕阳,把粼粼荡漾的水波投射在餐厅所营造的气氛,蔚蓝色彩如倘佯在海洋上,如身处海底世界。到了黑暗的夜晚,缓缓漂流的海洋,在沙滩上徐徐走动的小生物交织出的神秘感,更让Barnacles增添难以抵挡的性感魅力。餐厅取名Barnacles(藤壶)是附着在海边岩石上的一簇簇灰白色、有石灰质外壳的甲壳类动物,与海洋和大自然息息相关的主题鲜明,而且所经营的美食富含地中海风味和亚洲特色。Barnacles法国籍总厨Emmanuel Gaudin曾在不少国家如摩洛哥、香港、台湾、越南等工作,加上两位厨师,擅长东西综合的Joanne Chee和擅长粤菜和川菜Ricky Thien之协助,让Barnacles菜式选择众多,而且颇具水准。地中海美味佳肴海鲜来到Barnacles必点的海鲜拼盘(Seafood Platter on Ice),顾名思义就是
