so the weekend was spent eating, eating & eating. and eating.

friday we headed to leo's aunt's place for great jap food. fantastic fried aji, fabulously decadent braised pork belly, huge chunks of unagi, very tender slices of beef teriyaki, i'm in love.

then it was goodwood park where we bought off the last few boxes of durian puffs before heading to spinelli for a cuppa while waiting for various ppl. and kopi gao gao gao cos i was about to fall asleep.

so then came sat, where the extended family trooped off to ah orh for very good zi char. fish maw soup..very very fresh steam pomfret, mai pian xia, chestnut chicken, crayfish, u name it we had it. then dinner was macdonalds, courtesy of mun mun who swung by my place earlier & dropped of some bfast. ^^

and then sun, for part 2 of the mothers day celebrations. wanted to go to riders cafe/mimmolette but the key person wasnt too happy with the menu so wen to check out the seafood rest nearby. not bad, overlooking the green, surrounded by nature and pretty vines cascading down, even the occasional sunbird feeding from banana flowers. food was good, esp the seafood soup & bamboo clams freshly steamed with tons of garlic. gorgeous!

hence, i decided i'd jus have plain fish bee hoon for lunch today.

oh and reese's for a snack. cos its the best remedy when u're all alone in the office, facing distributors and suffering from weekend withdrawal symptoms.
