18 Oct 2009 – Oyster Surprised

AsiaGrand@Odeon Towers****specializes in the finest Cantonese cuisines. Love raw oysters and do not usually eat them any other ways. But for some reason, decided to taste this and to my surprised, savored every bite of it… lightly battered with salted-egg yoke, a tasty combination. Of course what is a 95thBday(4auntie) dinner without suckling pig, one of my favourite pork dishes. The way we indulge ourselves with food in SIN is no wonder that cardiologists like my brother are in good business!

ParissInternationalSeafoodBuffet@MarinaSquare****has a good variety but missing the Norwegian varieties of marinated, smoked, pickled salmon & herrings. If you have the time to enjoy a 3 hours lunch in good company, this place is certainly worth both the time and money. The stomach did not have space to taste all the seafood, not to mention the rest of the non-seafood buffet! Another time… thanks to CharlesC for introducing Pariss.

FoodOpera@ION***upscale food-court style with food tasting similar to most food courts but more expensive to make up for the rents! Another new mall but this one with mainly brand-named goods… waaaay over-rated with over-prices for the NouveauRiche!!

Thank you to AileenK for the SPA invitation, was so relaxing and to Les&Ivy for a peaceful stay at their SentosaCoveCondo. Last night was the first game with the SIN-Monopoly version. What used to be the most expensive Monopoly property, ParkLane in our childhood is SentosaCove for the SIN version! Hope that DarrylN (grand-nephew) enjoyed the game and guess who won? Hint… someone who owns the real SentosaCove – hahaha.

Heading to China tomorrow. Wishing you all a good week ahead. Updates will be done when I return end of the month. I wonder what China has to fear about WordPress to block it?
