spent my weekends with my family~ so happy ^^
cos 1stly, i dont nid to spend any cent.. muahahahaha.. (dont mention about transportation fee la..)
2ndly, finally had a taste of laksa steamboat!
3rdly, it was like i'm back to the times when i was a quite young, going out with family on weekends instead of hanging out with frens. the feeling is so .. eh.. dunno how to describe in words.. haha..
so on
sat, 3 of us (dad is still working) went down to tour agency to attend the short briefing on our
hokkaido trip as well as to pay the balance.. (hee..
9 more days to my trip~ excited~)
after that, shopped with mum at CK and OG.. basically, we were accompanying her to shop instead.. hahah.. she didn't buy anything in OG in the end (surprisingly! lol), cos we had limited time to shop since we were going to meet dad for dinner cum celebration for
father's day..
brother recommended this
laksa steamboat restaurant after his first visit there few weeks ago, so i suggested to go for it during father's day.. this place is along telok blangah, next to a church.. can go
here for map..
price wise.. it's not those buffet style.. meaning not based on per headcount.. it is based on the ingredients and drinks u ordered (so the soup base can said to be free.. haha).. i think it is quite valuable for those who have small appetites.. haha..
seats wise.. the place is quite small.. so it will be better to reserve a table if u wan to get a table in aircon area or good area outside.. we were lucky to get a seat outside (inside -aircon- were full), cos a few mins later, all tables were filled up..
parking lots are very limited too since it is a shophouse and the surrounding area is private households estate..
accessibility is quite ok, there's a bus stop nearby.. think got alot buses like 61, 197, 100 etc..
ingredients are quite fresh, there are a few types of ingredient which i like alot.. and must try the
chilli sauce they made! it is a wonderful mixture.. haha.. it's abit sweet and not super hot.. got sesame seeds as well as chilli seeds inside.. lol..
the
laksa soup base is nice.. maybe to some, it is quite diluted and not hot.. but i find it ok.. as in not that diluted (but it is indeed not hot.. haha.. anyway, there got chilli for laksa, not hot right? add chilli urself lo.. hehe)
we order
yuan yang pot.. one side is laksa, the other side is normal stock base.. the soup are free flow.. they will add for you either upon ur request or automatically when they see that the soup level is low..
*1st batch of ingredients thrown in*
after some time, the 4 of us kept cooking on the laksa soup base.. haha.. cos it was really yummy~ (as compared to normal soup base, which is not too bad too) so we stopped them from topping up the clear stock base whenever they attempted to add.. haha.. dont waste food ma..
felt so sinful after this meal.. laksa ler.. omg.. dunno how many bowls of laksa soup went into my stomach.. anyway, u all can go try out.. but dont bring too high expectation along.. haha..
after the laksa steamboat, since we were near Mt Faber, so my mum suggested going for a walk.. oh great! the idea of strolling after a super duper sinful and heavy meal is terrific.. haha.. but we didn't stay there for long cos it was quite late.. haha.. this was my first time (cant rem) on mt faber, exploring only a small part of it..
on sun, went to PC show with my bro and his gf.. oops.. anyway, wanted to go there to see the phone that i recently set my eyes on it.. but we went to look for the camera that my bro wanted first..
so sian lo.. reall people mountain people sea.. and human jams at the entrance/exit to the escalators that will bring us to the convention halls in suntec!! i hate this.. grrr.. but have to bear with it.. zzz..
while walking through the crowd, i got brochures/flyers on laptops.. so tempted to buy on the spot ler.. come to think of it.. my laptop is at least 4 yrs old liao.. and the screen is giving mi problems sometimes.. hmmm.. i should really buy right? BUT the problem is i have no money.. boo.. faster find job and i will get one in the next PC show! muahahahaha..
so my bro bought the camera he eyed and ta-da~~ i got free camera instantly.. lol.. cos with his new toy, the old camera ownership becomes mine.. wahahaha.. but then, i prefer a sony or casio camera ler.. haha.. suan le.. now no money no talk.. besides the old camera is only 1 yr old (quite new) and it still can be used, also the specs are quite good too.. (my bro chose de ler.. how bad can the specs be? lol)
after that, went to take a look at singtel area.. omg!! flooded with people too.. zzz.. so i just go and take a look at the phone and get a feel on the phone..
after shopping in the PC show, we went to TCC to have lunch cum tea time.. haha.. potato wedges with melted cheese were really yummy!! haha.. so was the oreo mocha frappe.. (not quite sure abt the drink name) the best part is.. it was my brother's treat (i assumed de.. cos my bro never get money from mi!! wahahaha..) thanx bro!! ^^
