Buffet ?! 2007-03-14 08:10:00 To date, the hotel buffets that I have visited are just merely four: Raffles Hotel, Ellenborough Market Café at Swissotel Merchant Court, Cherry Garden dim sum buffet at Oriental Singapore and The Line at Shangri-la Hotel.Frankly speaking, buffets are not really my cup of tea... though people said that: "you can eat everything with just 50 dollars"But I just find it boring.Though some of the grand hotels do try to create different types of theme to boost more visits from diners, like what I heard: Raffles Hotel “Russian food” for a limited period of 2 weeks, The Line is having “Oysters buffet” on Tuesday and “Seafood buffet” on Thursday, Axis bar and lounge at Oriental Singapore is having canapés, and an assortment of mini pastries and desserts.....Perhaps I’m more into culinary creations, or more gourmet type dining rather than those "one food catering for the masses" dining style…. have it or not is up to you since you have paid for all the food!If you want me to ra Read more:Buffet

Flash back to my old blogs 2006-11-28 03:15:00 I had started to write my online diary back 2003, people still not called it as – blogging. However, my first new “home” was kind of forbidden, you will only know its IP when your friends tell.http://my.hibiscusrealm.net/choochoo. This was my first home, recorded with my sweats and tears while I’m working in Kuala Lumpur as an IT Journalist. Well, the journey of being a journalist is very exciting because I had traveled to different countries to attend press launches, regional or worldwide IT events… and it is FOC! Where did I go? Furthest was Norway, then France (because of transit :-p), Korea (Seoul and Busan), Hong Kong, Beijing, Thailand (Bangkok, Hatyai, Phuket few times), Singapore few times (quite often) and within Malaysia (Kelantan, Penang, Sabah, Pulau Phuket, JB, Melacca). Almost travel once a month and frankly, it is quite tiring too… That’s why I decided to quit after 2 years.Ok, back to my first home page… basically, it serves as my personal home page, whe Read more:Flash
骨骼疏松症:女性专利? 2006-11-27 06:45:00 骨骼疏松症:女性专利?调查显示,骨骼疏松症在女性中比男性为多,因为女性在更年期后雌激素谁拼下降,使骨量丢失迅速,因此引起严重骨折。根据一份基于155个年龄介于25至55岁的女性,拥有一个至少50岁的在世母亲,所作出的调查报告指出,有65%的女性认为她们的母亲非常健康、有40%的女性认为她们的母亲并没有骨骼疏松症。其这40%的女性当中,有24%认为她们的母亲拥有患上骨骼疏松症的高风险。我国骨骼疏松症协会(Osteoporosis Society of Singapore,OSS)主席许佳慧医生表示:“现代女性比她们的母亲更注重建康问题,因此也更愿意地协助她们的母亲迈向健康道路。一般人认为一旦患上骨骼疏松症就代表了没救,其实不然,骨骼疏松症是可以治疗并预防的。我们希望这些女性可以带领她们的母亲进行身体检查,以便尽早治疗,减低风险。”许医生
