nono, i meant that it was very generic for japanese food. the meal itself was of course a nicer than average one.

diewhitegirls - thanks for the link. i've saved it under "foodporn"

ate out with tweeds, generic (uhm the food i mean!) but satisfying:

mine

tweeds'

i know what it looks like ^ and whilst it's no secret that i can out-eat many boys, he had a smaller meal compared to mine only because he was going home for a second round of steamboat dinner... which he failed to photograph *glares at tweeds disapprovingly*

what are you and tweedles getting married? is this the trad attire for a singapore wedding or engagement party?

no lah. the costumes were for the next project i'm doing. but yes, the outfit wouldn't have been too far off from the very traditional chinese wedding oufit, though few people really wear those anymore.

the rest of it was pretty pedestrian, so here's the picture of what i loved about the outfit:

vintage silk top with horse print, tuxedo vest, april 77 black colordrives, fendi pointy boots

what i really wore today

and it wasn't even for halloween...

on behalf of my mum, thanks for all the praise for the novelty food! the dinner was definitely the highlight of the halloween festivities...

i've decided that luncheons have to be lighter from now on. i cannot go on sizing up on my jeans indefinitely. which reminds me: please spread the word to anyone you know who might wanna get a tiny pair of grey april colourdrives:

chicken rice - i ate only half the rice though...

fresh young coconut

okay, the problem with light luncheons... is that you crave something later into the day...

apple ginger iced tea, chocolate chip cookie

lunch at home:

it's halloween and i didn't need a costume 'cos i'm already evil - i told mum i'm having friends over for dinner and demanded she made a halloween themed dinner.

actually, i lie. my mum wanted to make a halloween themed dinner, and demanded i invited some friends over.

the macabre meal

severed chicken carcass roast, deep fried paper ingot offerings, bloody mash

toxic (green pea) soup

cocktail fingers

dessert was konyaku jelly eyeballs

lights out!

well...short people have low centres of gravities...and i'm short so...

actually, there's a vid of me sliding down the thing and saying "ass burn" at the end of it. but i'll leave it to tweeds to decide whether i shalt be mortified on the internets.

^ thanks beatle! that was my first attempt at making a gif. i wanna grow up to be like ordo!

actually, i think i wanna be reincarnated to be like ordo. doubt i'll get there in this lifetime...

i think rirawin only has one suit - but man, that's a great pic. he looks like he's having an orgasm mid-flight

i'm spoilt i am. that said, i'm also putting on weight and getting my just desserts (heh).

as such, i had a light meal at home today:

thanks for the nice comments peeps. feelin it. xxx

that buffet looks awesome soepom, you make me wanna visit singapore just so I can stuff my face

yes, you should. rirawin can attest to it. (incidentally, bolognaise looks really good.)

What's the deal with food in Singapore? Does Soepom just go all out every night, or is food cheaper there or what? Every post is profound.

well. i do have to eat out often because of work - but my regular workplace provides free gourmet food, it's a nice perk. food at home is thanks to mum, who loves to cook and enjoys having people praise her cooking on the internets.

that said, if you're living alone, it's definitely cheaper to eat out. comparatively inexpensive: $3sgd gets you a single-dish meal at hawker centres/food courts. $7sgd for a fast food value meal. $15 - 40sgd at a pasta place/mid range restaurant. the buffet you saw me post cost around $88+++sgd (but without champagne freeflow). something for every budget. we have restaurants with really really fine dining. but i've not had the opportunity experience that just yet.

anyways,

lunch at home:

fried vermicelli

dinner at work:

aglio olio

bbq king prawn

spinach with garlic

warm chocolate torte with vanilla ice cream

1001st Post

congrats ordo! when you hinted that you were doing something for your 1000th post, i told tweeds it's gonna be some massive thing with everyone in it, like a where's wally thing. and i was right! (sort of) but this way exceeds my expectations! too fuckin awesome.

^^ thanks jeepster - it was such a treat to see them today - didn't actually think they'd bring the orangutans down to the wedding venue. i love animals.

sid i don't understand - are you saying you ate your doggie?

oh well...at least it's well garnished...

more pics of the orangutans here

cheep and family were among the guests!

i know it's a lot of photos but please indulge me - they were too cute:

they eat better fruits than i do

mummy orangutan fed her young one dragonfruit with pink flesh...

...and look what happened!

i was so in love.

didn't manage to post yesterday:

waiting at work:

really opulent and ostentatious ballroom. complete with gold everything and ugly frescoes. i can't decide if i hate it or i like it. they're so thorough with the ott it's almost good.

jacket detail

buffet lunch:

great variety of fresh seafood - had several helpings of this...

other assorted cold dishes and roast beef

assorted sashimi

there was a whole selection of other stuff such as northern indian cuisine, dimsum, chinese food, pizzas and gratins etc which i just tried here and there from my other family member's plates and didn't manage to photograph.

the dessert section was pretty cool too:

and on top of all this, there was free flow champagne! whoo!

food's looking good y'all.

MoreFire, i'm outta rep for you, but what you're whipping up just keeps lookin' better and better.

diewhitegirls, you NEED to pictures of that fabled apple pie. if we don't see it, it didn't happen.

tg breakfast outdoors just feels like such a happy thing! i shall attempt it...someday...

wEstSide - FUCK YOU NIGGA!!!! xoxoxoxo

my friends just released their record a few days ago. their style isn't my personal favourite, though perhaps some of you might like it.

^ those ingredients sound good. anything with shrooms spinach and cheese sits well with me!

i made the only thing i know how to for lunch today, for me and tweedles - and suffice to say it is nothing of my mother's standard. though fairly edible.
