Updates

Thursday

Bistro wasn't opened for business due to bad weather. After lunch I came back to update blog and upload fotos on fb. I went to Round Island at 3pm to see if there's any work for me. Bonnie asked if i would like the rest of the day off then come back tmr. I said ok cos I'm scheduled to work 10am at the Bistro on the following day.

I came back at 3plus, did the laundry and used laptop in the meantime. I went for dinner at abt 5plus then played table-tennis for a while before coming back to shower and relax. Maurine, Huijun, Stella and Vivek came to my room at 8:30pm to discuss about the upcoming "Singapore Day" where we need to come up with 5 dishes for the chefs to cook for lunch on one of these days. We opened the bottle of ice wine brandy that we bought from Canada's duty-free during the road trip. At about 9:30pm Lydia came to find us to eat noodles then we all went to the cafe to continue the discussion while having noodles at the same time.


We cooked 'dong fen' and 'la mian' to mix with Lydia's minced meat sauce that she brought from Taiwan. We settled on the 5 dishes - chicken rice, maggi mee goreng, minced meat steamed egg, sweet & sour pork and fried cabbage.

Went downtown after work with the same group of people as last week. This time we wanted to visit another bar named Goodfellows but it was quite crowded and there weren't any big tables that we could all sit together. We settled on going to Seabiscuit Cafe instead. We ordered beer, cocktails and some finger food to share.
