1. Me
2. PG
3. WX
Supposedly to meet WX at JE MRT station at 12.30 pm. But I scared late, so told him to meet around 12.15 pm. In the end, it's me who was late lol, only to reach JE at 12.30 pm. Took bus 49 to Lakeside MRT station - first time wor. Not many people taking the bus - that's why I was guessing why suddenly got this route.
Got off at Raffles Place, took exit F, somehow I got lost after coming up from underground. Managed to get the correct direction after checking the map on phone. It was 1 pm liao. Kan cheong liao. Scared cannot reach on time and was denied to enter restaurant.
Went past 東方紅 and Telok Ayer MRT. Talk about 東方紅, it's the Korean-Chinese restaurant where I had the 자장면 for the first time and I was hooked by it. It was opposite of Telok Ayer MRT. I almost forgot that there is a new MRT line called downtown line and first stage of the line is scheduled to open this month le. Don't foresee myself using this line very often wor.
Fortunately, after some frantic search for the restaurant which was quite hidden inside Far East Square, managed to enter on time. PG already reached well before the timing, went in first. A bit disappointed that some of the dishes that we wanted to eat weren't available. Such an atas (considered it quite atas gua) restaurant and it's not even end of the day, yet dishes were 'out of stock' =.=
The food was ok actually, but the irony was that the dimsum of the dimsum buffet didn't taste good. The 燒賣 was mediocre at best - doesn't taste fresh. The 蝦餃 was worse - the taste of the prawn and the outer crystal skin didn't go together, it was very very very tasteless. Didn't know how to describe this, but it was rather bad.
The rest were okay. The 叉燒包 was quite ok and 叉燒酥 was even better, loved the outer baked puff! 蔥油餅 was exactly like prata and nowhere 蔥油餅 taste lo. 五香 was heavenly! Ordered desserts as well, but nothing to write home about them. As for 上海泡芙, at first I thought it was REALLY a dessert, but it came more like cooked dish - 豆干 + 花生 + 醬油. 怎麼看都不像甜品。
Lastly, the desserts were decent. I had 3 cups of 杏仁豆腐 leh! 滋潤養顏哈哈！
Oh yea~~

I thought I would be the first to raise white flag as I really want to cut down my diet or food intake, but the most unexpected one was WX! Lol... 完全不行的說 and he said he going to have early ramen dinner at Clarke Quay area. Ooommmgaakkkk~~~!!!
Damage: $23
After the lunch at 3.30 pm, it was drizzling. Walked towards China Square, WX want get a new pair of slippers while PG need to log in to internet and I sat there watching 'The Heirs' and playing 'Asphalt 8' on my iPad. *Feeling tempted to upgrade iPad! But shall wait for iPad Air successor*
Then walked to The Central, the rain was a little heavier than drizzling, so took shelter at the mall. Nothing much to see, except for the Korean Rolling Rice eatery place at the basement. Then stayed put at Burger King until rain stopped. Till then, I was addicted to Asphalt 8 racing game while PG used his laptop. Tethering didn't consume so much power as I expected, guess the power management and the battery performance exceeded my expectation le ba. Switched on the tether for more than half an hour and the battery drops from 59% to 50%. So it should be able to last more than 5 hours just by tethering, that's a good thing to know :)
Then walked to Suntec City. The mall is halfway done with renovation and we couldn't find the Royce at its old location. The part where Carrefour was located is now sealed off to the public. No wonder now Giant moves to the basement for business. Wondered what kind of shops would open at that part now.
Found Royce at the newly renovated section. In the end bought Potechi Crunch Chocolate ($15) for the upcoming Xmas gift exchange event with uni clique. Also changed S$50 to RM.
With nothing to do at Suntec, me and PG headed Lavender for some chilling session at cafe. Halfway dropped by Shine Korea to shop for banana milk and persimmon drink. In the end, we found the cafe to be at the junction of the road leading to Concourse and Astons and Shine Korea. Literally we went one big round to get to the cafe. The cafe was called Tolido's Espresso Nook [https://www.facebook.com/tolidosnook]. It's rather unique because it's found at the void deck of a HDB block.
Went in and found that no much people at the cafe and it was quite adequately decorated. Wall sockets could be found everywhere, so using laptop and enjoy a cup of coffee isn't a problem. It should be a great place to spend whole day as well coz can charge phones and tablets lol. As I was quite full from the dimsum buffet, I didn't want to have a full meal for dinner - went with sandwich 'Croque Monsieur' ($6.50) instead. Looks french hor? lol...

PG had a hot cafe mocha ($5.20). Nice latte art there. To be honest, the food and drink were really reasonably priced and the best part is that no service charge and GST! *Shrieking out~~* Service was quite good too. Where can find another place like this with free electricity, no service charge and no GST yet can enjoy a cozy cafe ambience?
Think would visit again to try some other food and drinks ds. Nua nua nua until 1 hour past its closing time of 9 pm before took 197 home. Still got household chores to do before sleep! T.T
And then HH told PG that today was his last day at work! Eeekkk! All our spectulations were wrong! PG thought he quitted a week or two earlier, while I suspect he might have gone overseas for holiday. The most bx part was that he told PG that he left work early and never get to see the people there because he would cry if otherwise. Aigoo, only temp job baituo. What's there to cry~ Not as if forever won't meet up, still can keep in touch de what....~~~ But anyway, since it's from his mouth, there were some doubts about the credibility - his words aren't 100% true liao.
As I was typing this post, the large display estate area benefit me a lot, now I open this blog and food folder so that I can do referencing all at one go!
