Farewell Dinner 17-190208

As usual, I love to go out with a BURP rather than a BANG. So we headed down to Purvis st.

DINNER #1 @ YET CON

Yet Con Chicken Rice & Rest

25 Purvis St

11am to 9.30pm

63376819

It's REALLY HARD to find steamboat restaurants like these in Melbourne.. As an ardent Steamboat and Mala Huo Huo fan.. this is definitely a treat for me!!! The food is great and goes really well with the chicken rice. I especially loved the pork chop! To know more about Yet Con, check it out on Leslie Tay's food blog (ieatishootipost.com).

Dinner #2 @ Sushi Kikuzawa

International Building #02-13

360 Orchard Road (S)238869
Opening Hours:
Lunch: 12noon - 3pm

Dinner: 6pm - 10pm
Telephone: 67383833

This hidden treasure of a sushi bar serves really great sushi. One of the very best I've tried. It's tucked right under our very noses in International building, beside Shaw Centre (LIDO @ Orchard lah).

For only $50 per head.. trust me.. its WORTH the money! You get to enjoy delicacies like.. Sea Urchin, Fugu, unlimited Sashimi, Salmon roe sushi, blow-torched squid and other delights!

It's simply cosy little bar.. servng premium grade sushi @ affordable prices (once in a while.. lah)

See, we're so happy!

Below, you see Xiaoping's delighted expression as she chomps down the lovely sea urchin sushi.

So nice and cosy, you can relax at the corner table whereby they provide free japanese manga (comics) for you to browse at your leisure.
They're always busy so be sure to make reservations!
We went there on a weekday and they were full.

Look how delicious this sashimi is!!
Oops sorry folks.. cant remember what I ate.. but the one on the right is blow-torched Ika Sushi.

Me n my maki

This DA' BOMB dude:

The harmless looking pic below shows Fugu Fish Sushi (Puffer fish).

The fact that this is on my blog shows that I ate.. and survived Fugu. Yay..

This shows Shirauo Sushi (Silver Fish Sushi)

Xiaoping finally happy masticating her Unagi Sushi.

Ack.. Katsuo (Bonito Fish) Sushi didnt go well with me.

Yay! We survived the whole course!!

Next up, the Singapore-Japan Hour Show: (feat. Marc Lim)

We truly enjoyed our time here!

Here's a glimpse of their menu.

We asked for their ' Full Course'.. Xiaoping gave up halfway through.. I barely did..

Never too full for Konyaku Jelly though!!

Pineapple, Lychee, Grape and Strawberry



I can stuff the shole jelly into my mouth at once!
I can stuff the bowl in too!
All in all, we had a Swell Time! (as in.. swollen). Yummy!

Airport Farewell

Ok.. that's it! I've had enough of goodbyes! Phew.. this is the last of it. I'm really leaving now (from a retrospective viewpoint)!

I'm very very glad that so many of my friends turned up. Initially, I was feeling apprehensive.. wondering if I should call anyone at all. You know, it's really hard to leave when you see your friends and family gathered around you.. for the last time.. in 6months to 1 year..

Big question on my mind right now.. Still unable to decide if I should return to Singapore in Dec this yr.. or should I return next year June.. or
BOTH..? That's where YOU come in! Yes, help me decide by leaving comments thank you.

Thank you all who came for my farewell! Really appreciate it.

Left to right for all:

My buddies Jereld, Darren, Nigel...

My polymates: Shang, Jason, Ryan, Daxuan, Samuel

My army friends: Daxuan *again!*

My friends: XinYi (youngest member! nearly 1 year old now) and Charmaine.


Last but not least: MY FAMILY!! Ok, it's official. The turf wars has BEGUN!!!

Brief History of the Turf wars.
When my brother, Marc, first left for UK for his studies, his bed room became a guest room. As we bought more clothes over time.. his room gradually became a walk- in wardrobe. Things soon began to pile up in his room... It became a Store Room. And before long, everyone was fighting over this small but highly coveted property - Marc's Room.

Now everyone is waiting... and eyeing for MY ROOM. Question is.. Will I still have a room when I return..?
