Hey folks.. Thanks to Tjowster, charsiewpao and I have been able to go for a phototrip last weekend, to tryout the photo capabilities of the Olympus E500, sold to us at a really affordable price. =D Now, for a disclaimer, my chaplaincy team has always been an awesome place to work in, and much of its culture and values I have carried with me into my new job. SO it wasn't that my previous workplace sucked or anything like that. =) Of course, last weekend was not just to do techy stuff, it was to spend quality time together, to find a story, and to see if there be interesting stuff that catches our attention. I'm thankful for that breather to be able to just take my mind away from everyday concerns. =) Here are just some highlights, to let you guys take a peek into our weekend.
The Gyoza in Gyoza no Ohsho, really delectable! It's soft yet crispy and best eaten fresh. =) This shop is pretty inconspicuous and easily overlooked but not to be missed. Thanks Charsiewpao for the recommendation!
Accidental heart shape formed from mixing of two sauces! So sweet hor.~~ Hee.
Charsiewpao's order, Chashu Ramen. Generous serving, soup is rich in flavor and the noodles are authentic in its elasticity. =)
My own order, Tonkatsu Don. It's actually breaded pork cutlet in Worchester sauce. The texture of the pork is really quite legendary wor.. The breaded batter falls off the firm but juicy meat when you bite into it. The only thing is, the Worchester sauce could have been lesser. Haha.
The owner of the small shop, who humbly allowed us to take his picture. It's quite an experience to have the owner/chef prepare food in front of you.
Gyoza no Ohsho is at Cuppage Plaza #01-10.
After that delectable meal we made our way down to Dempsey Hill for the FleaTitan, a first in Singapore, where they combined indoor, stall, and car boot sales all at one place. Quite a few interesting sights we caught, but both of us couldn't find what we were looking for, which were a jockey cap and a wallet. =)
We soon had to escape from the heat at Jones the Grocer, a place that does not have service charge or GST. Hee. Quite a great place to chill out at, we recommend it for people who want to feel like an ang moh. =)
And so, here's my weekend of great conversation, wonderful sights and sounds, and most of all, rest for a tough week ahead.
Ciao~
