Silk - Thai Restaurant

A certain birthday boy was pretty happy tonight. I got us dinner reservations at Silk, the only Thai restaurant on the island. Our table was on the balcony overlooking Front Street and the harbour.

The menu consisted of the usual thai favourites - tom yam kung, pad thai, curries, etc. A pity there wasn't yam woon sen, my favourite glass noodle salad...


While waiting for our food to arrive, we sipped at our ultra expensive (USD7.50) bottle of still water, trying to make it last the entire evening and enjoyed the evening breeze...


The appetizer came along - fried crackers with thai sweet chilli sauce. seriously, it was more sweet than spicy, but it was a good start..


Then came the soup - tom yam kung. yummy!



Then came the satay platter - chicken, beef and prawn satay! the beef was excellent!! chicken was good. but the prawns, well, i think they should have used it in the tom yam kung instead...


Birthday boy said " HAPPY!! haven't had satay in a long while..."


I couldn't resist ordering the mango sticky rice for dessert. i'm happy too.


Last but not least, a shot of the lights of the restaurant, before leaving...

3.5 more working days. my mind is on holiday! last evening's kickboxing class totally killed me! i huffed and puffed and threatened to punch my imaginary opponent senseless, but in the end, it was i that suffered, not the air molecules that got knocked around. my body is aching like a 90-year-old who's just completed 100 push-ups. i couldn't sleep last night because of the pain. i had to wake hao-e up to massage my shoulder-blades which were so sore and is still kicking up a ruckus behind me. my gosh! i tis old and feeble.

Back Safe and Sound

This is my first post since we left Bermuda for Singapore more than 3 weeks ago. We are battling serious jet lag this time. it might be the age-factor (yikes!) or because we didn't rest properly on the flights (yes plural!) back cos we were busy trying to exhaust all the new movies on krisworld, or maybe a combination of both lah. but both of us have been trying very hard to keep awake at 3pm. yes, the sleep monster strikes at that hour! thank God we are going to remove time saving tonight, so we have 1 less hour to correct this weekend. talking about movies, twilight was amazingly easy on the eye! although i hesitate to call ourselves twilight converts given that i was highly skeptical at first. but the eye candy in the form of Rob Pattersin/Edward Cullen is really irresistible (did you know Rob Pattersin was Cedric in Harry Potter??) .... argh. i wanna get bitten by this vamp too lor! BITE ME! Hao-e even bought New Moon (the sequal) to read this weekend and i spent almost ...

Back To Reality

It's over! We're finally married (in the eyes of the Church!). It was really pretty fun last sat, thank God for the sunny weather (a bit hot lah, but at least it didn't rain till after), for the wonderful guests and my fantastic friends. hope it wasn't too uncomfortable under the sun for everyone.
