Happenings in September - Disney Tsum Tsum Mid-Autumn + Sentosa Sandsation: Marvel Edition + Granny's 79th Birthda

Saturday 1/9/18

September has approached, we are in the last quarter of 2018. I have been looking forward to the last quarter because vacation are coming. We went to Bugis Junction today after we settled some matters. 

KFC is having promotion where Zinger Buddy Meal consisting of zinger burger and 3 piece chicken is only at the price of $12.95. We upgraded the mash potato and salad to cheese fries, and we eat until super full. 

Since we were feeling so full, we decided to take a walk from Bugis to City Hall. Along the way, we passed by War Memorial Park, this memorial. The Civilian War Memorial is made up of 4 pillars which commemorates these civilian victims of World War II in Singapore and the unity of Singapore’s four main races—Malay, Chinese, Indian and Eurasian.

Wednesday 5/9/18

Today's lunch was at the usual restaurant that we patronized at Nana Green Tea @ Plaza Singapura. I always ordered Nanban Chicken, so this time round, I ordered something different.

I ordered Karaage Chicken set ($13.99++) that comes with a miso soup, main course and a drink. The fried chicken was coated well with the thick curry gravy. The spicy level for the curry was a mild one, which make it suitable for everyone including those who does not take spicy food.

Saturday 8/9/18

Done with another presentation. I didn't done well for my part because suddenly my mind went blank halfway presenting and I forget what I was supposed to say. I need to buck up for my next presentation.

After my lesson, I went to VivoCity's Sky Park for Disney Tsum Tsum Mid-Autumn Celebration Of Love. Here I was at the Fairytale Garden.

Stepping foot in the romantic garden where the tree was decorated with many cute disney lanterns.
The adorable Disney and Disney-Pixar Tsum Tsum attracted fans of all ages to celebrate the festive season together with our favourite Disney character.

Passing through the 40m long Tunnel of Love featuring Disney Tsum Tsum lanterns of over 30 different Disney and Pixar characters.

While walk through this beautiful lit tunnel, spot your favorite best pals like Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck, Winnie the Pooh and Tigger, Buzz and Woody, Nemo and Dory.

Perched over the water was the Ice Palace from Disney’s Frozen, Anna and Elsa as well their friends Sven and Olaf. It was a visual spectacle and a sight to behold, where over 2,000 Tsum Tsum themed lanterns were displayed.

The highlight of the exhibition was none other than 10m tall  Disney couple Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse. It was made out of 1500 lanterns. Celebrating their 90th anniversary this year, this is truly a love for the ages. 

In conjunction with school holiday, Sentosa offers free island admission for local residents via Sentosa Express or self drive. We decided to take this opportunity and took Sentosa Express to Beach Station for Sentosa Sandsation. I met Tselyn on our way while queuing up for Sentosa Express.

It was a long walk from Beach Station to Siloso Beach. After we passed by the Marvel backdrop, we still have 15 minutes walk away.

Welcome to Sentosa Sandsation: MARVEL Edition featuring popular MARVEL icons from the Avengers, Guardians of the Galaxy and more as 15 larger-than-life sand sculptures.

Check out some of the character sand sculptures.
Who is your favourite superhero?

Feeling tired and hungry, we decided to head back to HarbourFront for our dinner.

Sunday 9/9/18

It's been a long time since I last eat out together with my family, so mummy suggested to head out for dinner at bak ku teh eatery.

We have a table full of food but nothing beats dipping the fried dough stick into the pork rib soup, the fried dough stick was soaked up with the goodness of the broth  We couldn't resist eating the fried dough stick till we ordered 3 plates which was shared among 5 of us. The bowl of bak ku teh was filled with spices and pork ribs.

Monday 10/9/18

It was a long hiatus since 四面夏娃 last gathering which was during June. Jasmine decided to organize this lunch meetup at Otoko Ramen as Meryl is in town this week. Jasmine and I were early so we helped the others to order the food so that the food was served shortly after everyone arrived.

Jasmine, Meryl and I all ordered Tonkotsu Ramen which comes with 1 piece of char siew, black fungus and spring onion. GF ordered the dry ramen.

Jasmine got us some cakes for sharing after our meal. Thanks Jas for the sweet gesture.

Lunch has been a great one because of them, spending time with people that matters.
Hope 四面夏娃 next gathering will not be too long away.
Thursday 13/9/18

Today we went Great World City for lunch and been to the place that we have not patronized for a long time, Cedele. I missed their all day breakfast.

I ordered Petite Breakfast which consists of 2 slices of wholemeal bread, 2 sausages and scrambled egg. I love the fluffy and moist scrambled egg. The breakfast was priced at $14++.

Friday 14/9/18

T.G.I.F.
Today was Grandma's birthday and we held a celebration dinner for her at Yan Palace @ Hong Lim Complex. We were one of the earliest to reach. Dinner started late at around 8pm as we need to wait for full attendance, everyone rush down here after our work.

We booked 2 private rooms that are interconnected with 4 tables. Our family members are expanding with many cousins married and having their kids.

It was a night full of good food. My uncle did the ordering with 9 course dinner.
Every dish was so nice.

Fried beehoon, our second last dish.

My favourite among all was the dessert, Fried Ice Cream. 
The ice cream was concealed inside the fried bun, I enjoyed the cold ice cream served in the hot bun, best of both world. A great dessert to end off our dinner. I got the chocolate flavour while some gotten vanilla, mango and strawberry flavour.

Last but not least was the cake cutting ceremony.
It was gigantic size of cake, more than enough for 40 of us.

Happy 79th birthday, Grandma.
Pls stay healthy and strong. We love you always .

Tuesday 18/9/18

We went Menya Musashi @ Chinatown Point for lunch. It was a good deal to dine in during weekday lunch because they were having lunch promotion at $11.90++ for a bowl of ramen, a side dish and drink.

I ordered my favourite red Cha Shu Ramen with Fried Gyoza and Ice Houji Tea.
The spicy broth made the bowl of ramen a slurpy indulgence.

Wednesday 19/9/18

We headed to Plaza Singapura for lunch today, we went to our new favourite place, Cafe & Meal MUJI.

I always ordered the standard 2 Deli Set at $12.80. Our of the 5 selections, 3 of them were the same every time - 16 Grain Rice, Cumin Carrot Soup and Onsen Egg. The only difference was the Hot and Cold Deli which I will depend on the selection available. For Cold Deli, I chose Orecchiette Pasta and Mushroom Salad in Truffle Ranch Dressing. For Hot Deli, I chose Fried Chicken.

Saturday 22/9/18

We went to City Square Mall for a walk as we wanted to visit Decathlon to check out the sport wear.

Dinner was settled at Food Republic @ City Square Mall. I had Curry Chicken Noodle ($5.50) for dinner. The curry has a robust flavour but too spicy for my threshold. The spice started to hit after few mouthful and pace of eating become slower and slower. Nevertheless, the broth was really fragrant.

This sums up my happenings in September, look forward to my break in October.
