Ma Maison

 I planned to dine in the first ever Nando's in Singapore but to bad it was packed like hell!!

For God's sake! Look at the queue. Damn kiasu hoh? Singaporeans. Famous with the 3K..

Btw,  this outlet is located in Bugis Junction.

Then we retreat to Ma Maison in Bugis as well. I'm a first timer. They have lots of certificates hanging on the wall. Must be good I guess.

Ordered 2 appetizer. I was damn hungry ok!

Escargot. 

The taste was okay I guess.I prefer the Malaysian 'chut chut' =P cooked 'Kung Po' style =D

See!! They have fire around the metal plate. If you are wondering, the white color thing is salt. I don't know how they actually serve this elsewhere. But this is sure interesting! =P

The juicy juicy escargot or siput! =P

Cheese Fritter. My favourite!

Soft, hot cheese melting inside your mouth..Aaaahhhhh````` *high*

Baby's main dish. They pour fire over it. Here they really love fire huh?

My Sirloin Steak. 

The waitress did warned me that the black pepper sauce gonna be salty. It does. But the other sauce was Japanese sauce. I had no idea how it taste like so I dare not try.

But the beef is really tender!! 2 thumbs up!!

Total damaged S$71.80

Overnight Biological Peel

Went to the new shopping mall in Subang the other day. Empire Shopping Gallery. Nice place. Not so big but enough for me to get all my grocerries and other neccecities =)

Nothing much up on their web yet. Saw Kiehl's somewhere in Mid Valley few weeks ago and because I was alone I dare not to go in. Plus their store was empty. No customers only sales girls. If you don't know yet, I will get  this uncomfortable feeling every time I enter a store with no customer. I just don't like it when the sales girl keep on staring and follow my steps!

Nonetheless, that day I went in with my friend. The girl in Kiehl's was surprisingly chatty and she explain everything to me very well! =) I always have this communication problem whenever I speak to Chinese promoter because I don't know mandarin. After spending time in the store, she gave me few samples to try at home. I got an Overnight Biological Peel and a cucumber toner.

The Overnight Biological Peel is really good! It really works on my skin! The good thing about this product, it doesn't leave my face dry. At all! Unlike other peeling products. It doesn't literally peel your skin because I didn't notice my skin peel off. But in the morning I can feel the difference =D My face turns smoother and more radiant, bouncier too =P

You should try this product if you have these problem :

The active ingredients:

As the name says, it is an overnight kinda thing. So do apply at night on clean face after toner. No moisturizer needed :) Please don't apply it during the day as it may caused further pigmentation. 

Money you have to fork out for this baby is  RM200. Quite worth it I would say as you only apply it 2-3 times a week.

I love it I hope you do!! If you have doubt do try their sample first. Their sample is big enough for you to use for 6-7 times because you only need to squeeze 5 cent amount for the whole face.

My Favourite Sushi Place =)

Since I got nothing to blog about.. Let me share with you my FAVOURITE SUSHI PLACE =)

Off to sleep *yawn*

P/s: Done with Bizzy Body treatments. I lose 1KG only.  I realized Sunway branch is much more better as in they don't really force you to take up any products or treatments compared to Taman Desa branch.

Scary..

This is not a fiction.

At 330pm I was alone at home with 2 doggies. Door bell rang. Some unknown guy at the door.

Guy: Hi, Im Mr Yeo staying at the 13th floor. Is this your house?

Me: No, the landlord and the wife went out to work they will be back at 7pm.

Guy: This is an emergency, my daughter studying at XXX school (can remember the fucking name) is really sick.Her nose is bleeding. Her teacher asked me to pick her up and I want to send her to the hospital. My wife went out and I don't have anything with me. She drove the car out. She will be back at 5pm.

Me: *puzzled* 

Guy: I need to borrow money. I need S$50.

Me: Can I make a phone call first.

Guy: *demanding voice* I need to borrow S$50! My daughter is sick. I tried to asked my neighbour but all of them not at home.

Me: Why don't you ask the neighbour beside. I'm not local. *I seriously don't know why I mentioned that*

Guy: I tried but they are not at home too. That's why I asked you. My wife will pay you back your S$50. I only want S$50 not thousands or hundreds!

Me: I have to make a phone call first.*rushed in*

Guy: Oh My God!

I went in and quickly grab my phone to call my bf. I was freaking out. He told me to tell the guy I got no money and locked the door. But all I did was locked the door. I don't even dare to open the door again. That stupid guy rang the door bell few times after that and I just keep quiet. Thank God there are dogs in the house!

Seriously!!! What The Fuck man!!!!! 

I seriously don't know whether the daughter is really sick or is it a scam. If the daughter is really sick I hope he can get to the hospital as soon as possible and sorry for not helping.

 I know it is possible for him to have no money with him. But why he have to come to 11th floor to ask for S$50 ?! Don't tell me the entire 13th and 12th floor was empty. Or maybe they know him so that's why they don't even bother to open the door.

Or why don't just take a cab to the school and borrow from the teacher. Somebody they know, at least the teacher know his daughter. Why have to knock on a total strangers home???

Spooky!

Crystal Jade Kitchen Singapore (with bus incident)

Went to SG to give my bf surprise for his birthday.

Unfortunately around 15 minutes before the bus reached Pagoh we heard a very loud banging noise! When we got down it was very shocking to see the bus window was cracked!!!! I seriously don't understand how a stone could crashed on a moving  bus window very accurately in the middle of the dark on highway..

How???

See the hole on the bus window!!

Few minutes after we take off from Pagoh the bus driver eventually stop and kicked out the glasses. So the bus was windowless until we arrived Malaysia Immigration and changed to another bus. While all of us on the bus have this same kind of expression. 

On 19 I treat baby for a Chinese dinner. Should have save the money and spend it in Dragon I or something. The food sucks!

Worse Crab in the crab history!!

This shop has the best Crab ever!! Mell Ben

Singapore style Chilli crab. They should call it Lemon grass crab.

I think they purposely try to drowned the crab!

Pattaya Shark Fin. Another sucky dishes. Tho they put few slices of shark fin it doesn't compensate for the sucky taste.

Too oily. And worse Sambal Belachan food I've ever tasted in this entire universe!

The only edible food. Deep fried pork with cereal.

Total spend for this sucky food S$122.

This sucky food can be found at Crystal Jade Kitchen (orchard)

P/s; Gonna cook a nice meal for you in KL baby dear =)

Busy Body

Short note on weight loss journey.

Remember that I said you don't need thousands to slim down? Well yea.. Coz I think I got a pretty good deal from Bizzy Body =D RM399 for 24 sessions! But of course terms and condition apply. But actually it is not literally 24 times. As in you don't go to their centre for 24 times. I seriously don't know how they classify one time. No idea. But for me, I have to go to their centre for 5 times. Now I am waiting for my 3rd appointment. 2 appointment in 1 week, so I will be done in 2 weeks and a half =D

They promised that I'll lose 20cm. So let see whether it really works. But I'm not following closely on their diet. They don't allow me to eat fruits and vegie!!! I'll die! So I will still eat but I cut down on carbo =)

The first session was detoxing. Detox massage, and they kinda forced ask me to buy detox serum which is RM200 ++ for one small bottle!!! Insane! And only for one time use. But I paid RM156 because they said it is trial price. Which I think a total waste of money because I don't feel any improvement after that. I rather drink detox tea. Then they wrapped me in a blanket that will  press my lymphatic knots. No idea whether it is effective or not. I doubt so.

Second session, they applied ginseng oil and wrapped me. And cover me with infra red blanket. Then they use some kind of vibrating machine they called G-5. This machine really can vibrate!!! I think all my fats were jumping in shocked! And again they forced ask me to buy products. I said I'm broke and got no money. So they give me RM80 for freaking 20ml Nutri Skin Lipo Sculpt Gel! Maybe  worth it. But it is EXPENSIVE! Which she again said RM89 is the trial price but she can use her points so I just have to pay RM80.

More to come once I finish up all the sessions! =D

So Unlucky!

I hate you!! I hate you!! and I hate you!!! =(

I am SERIOUSLY gonna let my frustration out!!!

I was in Sunway Pyramid last Saturday (I am always there. They should pay me for being a loyal visitors!)

When I enter from the main entrance, there is this red carpet thing and paparazzi cardboard like figures with flashing lights. They have this Fashion month events going on. So, I look around for stage set up since it is Fashion month there must be a Fashion Show I assumed. Boy, how wrong I was!!!!

No stage?? Okay I ignored. We head off to Forever21, nothing nice. Then to Topshop, nothing nice either. Then lastly to Miss Selfridge. Since I enter, I have been saving Miss Selfridge as the last stop because I know I will buy something from them. They have this BIG ass 50% OFF poster on the glass! How to ignore??? Tell me..  Walked in and spend RM200 ++ for 3 clothes!!! Bargain ain't it??? =D 1 dress, 1 top and a blazer. Then walk around and shop some more. Then went home around 3.30 pm.

 At 5 pm, I decided to buy Scrabble. The travel version. So at 5.30 pm I went Sunway Pyramid again (alone BF sleep at home like babi baby.)  to buy Scrabble in Popular. Then went off. From my condo it is only RM5 taxi trip =D.  

Then at night, about 8.30 pm decided to go Pyramid AGAIN for dinner. Planned to watch movie. On the way to the cinema is when I realised what I WILL BE missing!!!! 

They have this leaflet that says

 "Spend RM100 and above in a single receipt and take part in the We Pay Your Fashion Bills & Fashion Spree Contest!"

and

"Spend RM300 and above in 2 receipts and get a free makeover with photo shoot. There are prizes to be won and the Best Cover shot will become the next cover girl."

Shit you!!! For not putting up banners big big at the main entrance!!! The really annoying part is on that day itself I went pyramid 3 TIMES!!!! And when I found out about the photo shooting appointment I don't have my shopping receipt with me and it was 9.30 pm already!!! AND the receipt is only can be claim on that day itself =( Ughh...

SAD!!!!

Pandan Lake Seafood Village

Pity me for not having such a great photography skills =(. No matter what camera I use, it doesn't make much impact on my pictures. When you bought a SLR camera in Singapore, only Canon brand I guess, they have this workshop for beginners to attend. Mainly to help beginners to explore the camera. On which settings to use, etc.. But it has been 3 months now and I still haven't make my reservation..

Had dinner with my family the other day.  Just wanna promote their shark fin soup! =P Love it to bits!!

 I am no good with food names especially when it comes to Chinese food.

So, I have no idea on what is this.

Mee Sua, eggs, vegie, chicken soup. The soup is delicious even though it look very plain...

Ohh the noodles are imported from Sibu =) So it is far better than what you can taste in KL.

Shark Fin soup. Really thick and filled with fresh crab meat and shark fin. I have no idea on how much is per bowl (one bowl is enough for 10 people. Don't be so dumb the portion in the picture is mine! Not the entire big bowl!). But should be worth it =D

Now come the fishy. The fish is ours. Brought it in from the Thailand restaurant beside =P.

Another bad photo. The fish is somewhere under the greenies... Hiding.

They called it Ipoh Chicken. So I have no idea whether it is the real name or they simply call it one because my dad brought it from Ipoh.

Then we had something that I called fish tummy =D And again no idea on what the commercial name is. Pretty famous and lovable by all except me. Yucks.

Though most of the food are ours =D If you plan to eat there please don't bring your own food. =P And don't tell them "I read in Nicole's Mirror that she said her family had dinner here and brought their own ingredients"

The Thailand restaurant beside do have really good Tom Yum, grilled mackerel, grilled crabs and grilled lamb (my favourite) . They have more but those listed are my favourite. Oh.. The Thailand restaurant serves HALAL food =D

I think the Chinese Restaurant do have some kind of promotion going on now. RM9.90 per dishes with over of 100 varieties to choose from. Not too sure whether there is any T and C applied because everything were written in Chinese. I only understand the numbers and pictures.

If you would like to try here is the address.

Tel: 03 9284 5666

p/s: The foods are good =D Do expect heavy crowd during special occasions or sometimes weekend.
