ITALIANNIES

ITALIANNIES @ Tripleone Somerset.
Pre-Birthday celebration for Xueyi & Xinhui. Time flies, it feels like last week we attended their 21st bd bash at chalets last year. we're turning 22!!

Thanks the great recommendation from alvin, we found this nice italian restaurant. accompanied by good food, reasonable price, great ambience & super friendly staffs. what can you ask for (:

Realised that's complimentary (:

the bread is really nice nice! they came with olive oil / butter. i was so busy taking photos, while enjoying the bread.

Our drinks. didnt managed to snap photos of all the drinks :/





Starters. slurps!

Pizzas!!! the thin crust pizzas are great! they are tasty cos the flavouring is good! and the crust is very crispy. loving it!

that's our Spaghetti & Meatballs. they are meant for sharing; 4-6 people. hmm.. not really a fan of meatballs, so cant comment much. but the spaghetti is not that fantastic.

lovely birthday girls!

& that's the 4 of us (:

Decided we should call ourselves SSBF. instead of me always writing in my organiser as "outing with roan & gang"

ps: SSBF stands for secondary sch best friends. though its alittle 老土, but SSBF sounds nice though.


nice place right?

oh, maybe u should focus on the people instead. yep, they are my dearies (:

Always having man's talk :D

love in the air <3>

Cake cutting session time! the manager just came to our table and asked us "are you guys ready for the cake to be served?" i was totally stunned. cos supposed to be a surprise for them. but didnt know they were efficient.

BUT really nice of the staffs to bring out the cake nicely with lighted candles and even live music. they taught us to sing happy birthday in italian style and they played the tambourine along while we sang. a hyper grp of staffs along with e crazy bunch of us. we sure did attracted alot of attention that night!


That's all of us! CHEESE!! (:

Non stop action of poloriods that night! when i saw xinhui taking it out of her bag, i was high already. HAHA

Hope you two like the presents and enjoyed the night. I bet we all had fun! (:

Happy Birthday!

IPPUDO sg

time flies, 2 years passed when my family trip to Hokkaido in 2008. It has been one of my favourite places so far!! Sure to go back there again if possible. THUMBS UP! weeks before the trip, Connie recommended me lots of nice food place and things to buy back. & she's also a lover of Jap cruisine like me! & she mentioned abt a ramen place which is a must to go. I managed to find it, but my tour grp didnt plan to have a meal there. so sad, so just took a photo of the shop as our tour bus leaves from there.


The ramen is round the corner of this famous shop which everyone who has been to Hokkaido would know. I rem my family bought 2 huge boxes of stuff from here. teeheee (:




Yep, this is it. the shop at Hokkaido! im sure you misses it too right Connie, if you are reading this. hee

TADAH!! NOW OPEN IN SINGAPORE, Mandarin Gallery!!

Yep, my dinner date with sisters at Ippudo (:

sad to say, the shop has not much sitting area. so we queued for an hour before we get to taste the yummy ramen!

yeah, these are my sweetie sisters (((:

& look at the nice lamp shades. Really nice ambience to eat in

Here comes our food!! we waited like ard 5min only after our orders have been processed. Shocked by the speed! hahaha. Our stomachs were all rumbling during the queue. Guess they heard it. teeheee

Above left: That's mine!! Shiromaru Classic
Above right: that's da jie's! Shiromaru Classic with egg
(she never fails to get a coke & egg for any meal. teeheee )

Above left: that's SisNoi's! Akamaru Modern with egg
Above right: that's SisQin's Akamaru Modern
Dont worry, that's not chilli, its yummy miso paste! (:

There were choices for us on the texture of the ramen, to be softer or harder. All of us choice the default normal ones. & i love it!!! Both soup base were DDDDelicious!

its really hilarious whenever 1 bowl of ramen arrives on the table and the 4 of us uses all our camera to take pictures of the food. I guess the next table must think we're some food critique or crazy bunch of ppl. But guess it has been smth we already use to (:

Food reviews recommended that their rare cheese cake is a MUST TRY! Yes indeed. i was afraid of the milky taste initially. But luckily there wont. Rich taste of cheese and lemon = Yorgurt. the texture is like a curd rather than a cake. so we named it "cheesecurd topped with sweetened chashew nuts"

Though the price is rather steep for a bowl of ramen, ard $15 per bowl. But I'll be back for more, being a jap crusine lover cum soupy noodle lover. teeeeheee. Connie, do go try it if you have not ya! (:

After which, went to ion b4 for mango desserts. their fresh mangoes are as usual super sour, but overall still refreshing.

Love you sisters! XOXO (:

Foodie make me fat!

Argh, doesnt feel good to stand on the weighing machine to see that there's a slight weight gain, even a 1 decimal point. hmmph!

Few of the recent good food pampered.

Today.
After a good swim with roan at sk sports hall, went to compass for a Jack's place set lunch. Yummy! Roan had sirloin steak with cheese & mushroom sauce while i had grilled boneless chicken with sambal sauce. The set lunch include minestrone soup, tea & a scoop of icecream. How fattening can this lunch be :/

WARNING: DO IT ONLY ONCE IN A WHILE!!

Few saturdays back, had a date with darl to have breakfirst at Rangoon road's famous Ng Ah Sio Pork Ribs Soup. Delicious & fulfilling breakfirst for us! Darl cant stop praising abt how nice the vegetables were :x haha. though the soup was alittle too peppery for me, but overall its still nice (:

WARNING: CASH PAYMENT ONLY!

Almost reaching the ending point, when sweetie clau finallys feel more awake & ready for the walk!

Doesnt know what's up with her today. she didnt really want to take photos unless she's showing some numbers on hand. Dun ask me why.
"Marilyn jie jie, i want see my number 1"
