Bad decisions make good stories. And I always have a good story.

Kazokutei

Had dinner with Darilene and Dian a few Wednesdays (1 August) back, and we tried this Japanese restaurant (Plaza Sing, Level 4, beside Ajisen), I think it’s called Kazokutei. Quite yummy, reasonable prices though the waiting time is always UGH. Been there 3x in total.

It might interest you (lol no) to know that my camera is totally spoilt so all the following photos were taken by other people’s phones T_T sob sob now I realise how I’ve been taking my camera for granted.


Darilene’s omu rice ($11.90)! The rice is in the egg, comes with a tofu hamburg, chicken, fries and soup. She didn’t like the hamburg and gave half to me. Also, hers came first and she waited for our orders to come so that we can start together till it turned cold :S Dian and I were picking at her fries the whole time hehe

Dian’s fried chicken set ($10.90) which comes with both rice and udon 🙂 Served with tofu and fried chicken (but we both have had better, like the one at Ramen Ten).

My tom yum seafood set ($14.90) which I really liked! 😀 comes with fried chicken, sushi and udon. At first I thought the udon was quite measly but I felt very full after finishing everything. All were quite good (other than fried chicken as mentioned) and the soup, though not spicy, tasted awesome. Though inside a bit of ingredients only.


Second time eating here was after watching The Bourne Legacy with the girls and Andre (10 August). Didn’t really understand the movie’s storyline or enjoy it very much though I like Jeremy Renner and Rachel Weisz. This led to me being half-hearted, then distracted, when I started using my phone to text, got called up about internship, blah blah…

On both of these occasions, we wanted to try the oreo ice cream sandwich from Carl’s Jr but the first time, it was sold out and second time, they stopped selling it! WHY WHY WHY T_T

Third time here was with my mom (13 August), after watching Dark Knight Rises (yes my second time).
That’s how I spent my uber long weekend 😉

The udon and rice is one set (forgot the names) and the chicken teriyaki ramen and gyoza is another 😀 the chicken in the udon was overcooked and very hard, ramen was too saltish and gyoza wasn’t crispy (maybe cos we waited too long for the other dishes to come) enough. Still nice and reasonably priced though!



Anyway we had time before the movie earlier on in the afternoon. Love how The Cathay at Dhoby Ghaut always has those mockups (??) you can take pictures with. Like the robot from Real Steel. And Johnny Depp (which I haven’t blogged about)!


The annoying thing is that they only gave me this stamp card on my third visit!! One stamp for every $20 spent and I remember we spent more than $80 in total for the second visit -_- so wasted. You can use it at any chain owned by the same company such as Ajisen too.

So much food on my blog hahaha 🙂


To infinity and beyond

Went to celebrate Muz’s birthday last month, 19 July 🙂 still remember what a bitch school was that day with all the rushing for print and the crisis that only a few of us were dealing with, ugh. But at least night was better. Went to J8’s Manhattan Fish Market for dinner and then watched The Dark Knight Rises 😀

The night before, went to Somerset with Qiya and Mark to get his present ^^ even little trips like this make me happy. Mark said no shopping for me (how does he know about my reputation?) but it’s okay, Darilene wasn’t around. Ha!




The only picture I look decent in the whole day

Shared this seafood platter ($35.90) with Gerry and it comes with 2 soups and 1 salad 😀
It’s to die for… first time trying their platter and it’s a lot better than Fish & Co’s!

  • Rice is soft, fragrant & does not have raisins like F&C
  • The prawns… I can’t even. Whatever that white stuff is, it’s good.
  • Calamari is not too chewy or hard and fries are just nice
  • Fish, oysters and vegetables are all really, really fresh

Basically they have everything in one platter in perfect portions, and I don’t feel sick or have to force myself to finish after awhile. Me gusta. So glad we ordered this ^^

Soup had bits of chicken/seafood in it. I even had a bit of salad although I hardly eat tomatoes and cucumber 😛 aiya I don’t like most vegetables okay. Carbs are my favourite. Or rice, to be precise. Cheese fries shared among everyone 🙂

There were loads more food than these being 9 of us. Had a taste of this grilled fish in sauce though I don’t know what dish it was but it’s so yummy too! And sips of mocktails. Honestly I have been craving MFM ever since this. Hahaha we ordered so much till the bill was so hard to split! Damn service charge & GST.

Wanted to crop out the left side of the picture so that my bum doesn’t look big but nevermind

Cinema tickets were booked in advance already so we ended up being late and missing the first few minutes of the movie. Hate it when that happens because my subconscious will not bother to focus anymore since I already missed out things 🙁 add fatigue from school into the equation and I ended up falling asleep from Batman helping Catwoman fight till the stadium scene.

When I woke up, I was like…
Why is Catwoman in jail???
Who’s Ben??? Oh, Bane? Who’s that??
Which character is Gotham???

Then during the last 30 minutes of the movie, my contact lenses fell out from one eye and I ended up squinting and covering one eye the whole time wtf. The thing is I still thought the movie was awesome so just imagine. Did watch the first 2 films in the trilogy at home then went to rewatch Dark Knight Rises in theatres again. Maybe a review of the trilogy some other time.

Always so tired whenever we go out after school but I really enjoy them all 🙂 the previous Thursday, went to J8 again with Gerry, Mark, Muz and Hariz with this rough plan in mind but we ended up visiting the library to while away time, then bought KFC back to Mark’s house and played Dance Central 😀 so fun!!

Happy Birthday to the class teddy bear, early bird and ASS! 😀
