This colorful poster is nailed up at office pantry and toilet for our awareness!

Hello Ladies & Gentleman, Boys and Girls, Lets practise washing our hands together! I think those kids will end up playing with water & soap instead, haha...

10 at Claymore

Had our first buffet dinner at Pan Pacific hotel yesterday evening. It was cosy and jazzy ambiance. It was an European cuisine including 7 dishes of Chinese dishes, chocolate fondue, salad bar, seafood, etc. The exciting part of this restaurant is the live cooking in the show kitchen guarantees the freshness of the dishes as they are prepared before the guests' eyes. Overall the variety is not much of a choice, however the price is not pricey at all. Its only $44 nett for 2 pax (during promotion period till end of Apr 09). For International Buffet, I would still prefer Merchant courts Ellebourgah Cafe and the price is reasonable.

Live Kitchen

Pearl River Palace

I don't usually do food reviews, but i must strongly recommended this restaurant. I have been eating in this restaurant for couple of times, and really like the food over there. It is awarded the Best Restaurant 2008 & 2009 in Singapore. The price is reasonable and you could eat all you can from over 50s dishes and you can even repeat the dishes as you wish. The menu included dim sum items, congee, appetizers, meat, seafood, soup, vegetables, tofu, rice & noodles. Desserts and fruits were laid out as a buffet spread where the customers can help themselves and that included about 10 items. Service was excellent for the price we paid. The staff members were courteous. The plates were constantly changed. Tea was constantly refilled without being asked. The food items appeared at the correct speed except when it was almost 1 pm when the place became busier. The dessert items were promptly replenished whenever necessary.

Enclosed are some(not all) photo shoots that we ate. Since its a buffer meal, we will select those dishes that were worth the price. haha...One of it is Shark fin. Fin is big, thick and superb! I think i am eating over 9 dishes courses where we would normally eat in a Chinese wedding lunch/dinner.

I went with In-laws family and the cute little baby of course. As usual the baby will always capture some attention, this time his eyes seduced some waitress and they like him so much, carry him around as if they are not working.

Unconditional Motherly love

Lets see what is the latest news i have to share over here . The mother swallow is building its nest just outside M's house. I am so thrilled to see them just right in front of me through the window. The photo are well taken & clear as they are just 5m away from my eyesight. These 3 little swallows are still very young and fragile. They are waiting for their mummy.

Ok the star is here, feeding them with food, do you see their tiny little fur less head popping out with mouth open hungrily? Mummy swallow, please be careful , i know your house is pretty cramped, watch out of the ceiling above you as you almost knock your head to it...Little swallows grow up very fast, unlike human...see below (The 1st picture and the last picture is only 10days apart).DA TA!! These 3 swallows had grown up, ! They still had not spread out their wings and try flying yet, and dare not to move but wait patiently for their mummy everyday. Aren't they cute ? But i heard once they know how to fly, all of them will leave here except the precious bird nest...anyone interested to eat free "unprocessed" bird nest ah?! heee ;-p

These remind me of Puri hotel which i had stayed over with my couple of friends before the high rated drama - Little Nonya show come into the picture. If you happen to stay there, you will definitely discover lots of swallows with their bird nest at the ceiling in the living room.

Cruel Exerise

The storm had just began. Report say manufacturing sectors rank 2ND worst after Finance. We are seeing 21 staffs being lay off yesterday. This is the 2ND exercise i had encountered during my stay. It really pain me especially they had been in the company for at least more than 10yrs (definitely more than i do) and had a golden handshake with them. Guys, Wish you all the best in your future endeavours!

Another surprise will come probably this two weeks time. Hmm..wonder when is my turn ?
In fact, blamed me for being "kaisu or kaisi" , i had backup most of my important stuffs into my mini-portable HDD. But i had lots of personal stuffs (low priority) residing in my cupboard, drawers like junk food, cups, flask, hand lotions, sweets, oats, Milo etc...my ex-GM used to tease me saying that my table is like pantry, only a Tap is missing! This could probably explain why i can never get a good grade in the 5S category. haha...

清明节

Time fly, again it is Qing Ming Festival. For the Chinese, it is a day to remember and honor one's ancestors at grave sites. Young and old pray before the ancestors, sweep the tombs and offer food, tea, wine, chopsticks, (joss) paper accessories, and/or libation to the ancestors.

. Nowadays we seldom see such grand cementery in Singapore anymore , its good to keep such traditional chinese practice and pass down to young generation.

Baby blowing bubbles

There is a traditional old chinese saying when baby is blowing bubbles himself, the weather will rain. Yesterday Sunday we (In-laws, 7of us) had planned to go out to have lunch at old Beijing resturant in Novena sq, but it rain. Then we postphoned to have dinner at Bukit Batok Mayum resturant, but again it rain. No wonder M's cute little 8+mth nephew keep playing with his saliva yesterday. He had definitely spoilt the outing ;-p .
Due to piracy, his photo is not loaded here. A brief description is he had big sparkling eyes that will seduce you. Even my SIL's Gynea's nurses @Gleneagles are so love with him that they insist to snap photo of him whenever he visit them. Having a baby will definitely a joy to families. :)
