FOOD! wat else??? food lah! i blog food!

(i took this entry away cos i wanted all the Koh Samui entries together as then i haven decided to do videos - nothing new yet cos BUSY! yes very BUSY! with sis's wedding prep, CNY preps, aching shoulders and being bac to work! will update sooooon if weekend permits! upcoming... for the first time i mit upload pics of my family pre-CNY cooking traditions... thats if i have hands and wot get scolded by mum for being a nuisance! haha... but she's used to me waking photos of everything bah...)

yes right after i came bac from the trip... that very nite, after all the unpacking, washing i was hungry! last dinner ate was on airplane! so gx got mil to tabao my favourite prawn noodles but opt for kueyteow instead of my usual yellow mee ... diet? also sharing with gx he like the white better...


the next nite... we had a sponsored dinner from sakae sushi... can't tell who came by cos its a secret. it was in exchange for a prep talk! i didnt eat much cos i was more concern to share with them... in the end i was so hungry in the nite, really ate very little... and blog till 4am inbetween stole 3 flower-shaped ginger cookies from fridge...
Yesterday evening met up with serene, went with her to check out her wedding hotel. She's looking at having it at Marina Mandrin. the lady coordinator that we met was very stern looking, kinda irritated me cos what also cannot give and everything almost reject... only some things i asked was yes for an answer but i think can count with one hand and didnt use up all my fingers! thats few right! but like i jus told ser its gog to be a nice wedding cos its how she will make it to be... i am gog to ignore that coordinator as long she does her job rite provide the right service and thats her job and like ser say, she will carry out her job well bah.
then i was hungry! hungry cos very cold in the hotel and i only had soup wanton mee for breakfast and lunch and no tea break! ser saw a crowded restuarant at a corner and we sat down for philippine food. YES first try! restaurant name is 7107 Flavours. i took serene's receipt cos she paid for dinner, so that i get the names of the dishes rite in case any of u wana go try! the food is not bad! the services here is good!
ser ordered a steamed rice while i tried garlic rice. very garlicky not too bad but sometimes too much in a mouth full! very fragrant thou.
the fried calarmari was fat! crunchy skin like bk onion rings. chewy squid! nice with tartar. Filipino dish name - Calamares Pinoy. i chose this prawn dish. its defintely high in calories and cholestrol! its cooked in crabfat sauce... yes crabs got fats! asked the waiter he said its found on the side of the shell, orangy stuff... its good but at first the prawns were jus cook and we found it a little raw so we got them cooked again... its filipino dish name is Sugpo sa Aligi.

ser chose this dish and its jus called as written on the receipt - Grilled Pork Ribs. I like this taste i like this kinda grilled meat. i was jus too full to help to clear the plates! ser say i must be to tired thats why smaller appetitate. i ate quite abit still not that small lah! its their portion is quite big! We ordered 2 green mango shake which was good. refreshing! heres restuarant priced so i will suggest find more friends and then will get to try more dishes. really not too bad.
then ser fetched me bac to mum and mum was having dinner at 10! her work is really getting into her health... wish she quits soon. was alittle sad when i saw her. she's really tired... ser came in to say hi and chatted with gx for advice, sis also receive copies of marina mandrin wedding package details and we started chatting about how to fight for what they need for wedding! gx should start a seminar! he gave them good tips on how to bargain! haha... he's rational and i am emotional! i only know my mum was sitting at a corner, smiling...
