walked around in chinatown to recce and gather some travel ideas and budget. and then snuffed a cookie before heading to the highlight of the afternoon- dimsum at yumcha restaurant. keep hearing my bro visit this place on his off days, so i guess i should try it too. high-tea buffet at $18.80++, which came to $22 per person.
it's actually on the second floor above a carving shop. (couldn't get the complete circle of lights la).i guessed we were a bit over-hungry. hahaha
the first round of food we got were not photographed in detail, as we were really hungry, and that lt said that he thinks photos are prohibited. LOL -_-didn't try any cheong fun, cause we were too full by then. but we tried really quite a lot of food. the items were decent, except the char siew bao we tried => fail. if not i would have tried the custard bao. oh, and we both disliked the custard roll, which had too strong a pineapple taste. cause we're too full, we had to walk around. aimless traipsing while trying to walk from chinatown to raffles place, and we stumbled across a temple. so we entered and took a look around. prayed and offered some joss sticks, before climbing up to the roof garden. it's quite a nice sanctuary, that little garden to walk around in, where it's quiet and peaceful.
it was actually a random decision, but appreciated lt's company to spend an entire afternoon talking crap and eating. too bad i can't do it more often.
eyes a bit tired looking hor? :(looking forward to meeting friends next week for dinner and also movie =) and then it'll be april!!!! KELONG! BINTAN!! wahahaha maybe i should organise some food gatherings too, hmm... http://www.ladyironchef.com/2010/02/25/breakfast-places-singapore/#more-4573
