.....times of refreshing.....

It's still a long school holidays in Singapore until month-end and most of my colleagues were on leave for one week or two weeks. I also yearn to take off to go somewhere but too bad,  the Malaysian school holidays will ends this week. It's not too bad for my wifey and kids, as they managed to travel to some other parts of the country but not me as some of my proposed holiday plans doesn't materialised. :(

Fried Rice with braised egg, salted vegetables and crispy pork chop

My wifey and my kids had gone back to my in-law side over the weekend which means I am alone in Singapore. Well, coincidentally, there was a seminar on vitamins and nutrition, on a Saturday afternoon and I decided to spend some time listening to what the experts said, rather than lazing at home. After all, time is precious and how good it is to use it for our self-improvement and well being. After the seminar was over, I had food and drinks with some new found friends. It seems a great Saturday afternoon.

I continued my Saturday by shopping alone for my errands as well as checking out certain stuffs. It's really been awhile I had so much time shopping in Singapore. Most of the time, I always rush to get the things I want and leave. And, while the shopping is done, I rewarded myself with a fine bento.

A bento set for dinner which consisted of chawanmushi, teriyaki chicken, salmon sashimi, tempura and miso soup.

The dinner was really a lot and it kept me full for the entire night. I decided to plan for tomorrow, probably go to church in the morning and a long workout in the afternoon. By the way, it's time for me to write my post and reading other blogs. And, that's a wise thing to do, right ?  :)

The school holidays have started and I decided to take a half - day leave to accompany my family to shop at the west side of Singapore. The Jurong area was really bustling recently with the opening of three new shopping centres in recent years - J-Cube, Westgate and JEM. Somehow, I prefered Jem more as it's bigger and have lots of varieties. 

Vegetable roll .. one of the the popular Vietnamese delicacy

Fried rolls, which came together as a set of mixed roll which I ordered. My kid loves it. The six rolls cost around S$10.80.

I had a Beef Soup with beef slices and balls. The soup was nice , not too salty and filled with beef aroma. Cost S$8.80.

Hotspot seafood set - This is for two persons where my wifey shared with her sister. There's a lot of ingredients in the pot  - prawns, fish, mushrooms, mussels and etc. It's actually tom yum if I am not wrong as it taste like one. This cost S$14.80.

Fried Rice Seafood ... Seems a lot of folks having this. Cost S$8.90

And, not forgetting my favourite Salty Plum Soda a well as a Ice Lemon for my wifey.  Cost S$4.50 for the Salty Plum Soda.
