Dining @ Zhou Kitchen

Was on leave yest, went to NSC with mum for her appt....

Decided on Zhou Kitchen (Tung Lok group) for our lunch. I thought Tung Lok group will definately taste better....but who noes....

When we are ready to order, the waitress can't take orders...she told us to wait & walked away & walked around instead of tending to other customers. I signal her the 2nd time. Then she told me to wait again, didnt even explained that she needs to call for her captain. The captain was busy bringing other customers to their tables..Soood Slow... :( Ordered some dim-sum. OMG!!! Waited for at least 30mins b4 the 1st dish was served. Interval of 15mins b4 the next few dishes were served. The rest was not very crowded when we sat down. The crowd started coming in half an hour later...managed to snap a few pics...

Overall verdict:-

Presentation (quite standard like other dim sum)

Food Taste (So so only...the prawns over-cooked. tough.)

Service (Slow in serving & ordering.)

Price (Slightly abv average~~ range $3.20-$5++ per plate)

Bill $47 for 2, ordered 9 dishes nia....I will not visit them again. Mum gave chance...mayb other outlets like the 1 at Ikea might be better...well...hmmmm....~~~~

Long Await Discounts~~~

After a whole long waiting for 3mths, finally I received an sms on thur by origins at paragon metro. hur hur hur...

20% Discount sale for Sat & Sun (extended shopping hours) =p
I have been checking & comparing prices after 20% discount to compare if its cheaper to buy with the disc or to buy online from Nordstrom. Actually via online, can save a few bucks per product esp with the dip in US$ now....but still I didnt go ahead cos tat result not topping up points & some products which I m interested to test b4 buying.
Had told Huiling abt this cos she oso another origins fan...kekeke....actually wanted to meet her for dinner but she is jus to busy with her house & wedd next mth. Ask her to pop by to buy her stuff w/o me.
I decided to go on Sun instead....
HB is rushing the Air Pork project & need to work for the weekends. I head orchard w/o him....

Stroll in Kino for some investing books. Again comparing prices if is cheaper to buy from Amazon. Hmm....Not that I m cheapo....but realised things are gg up & increment is minimal to sustain the inflation.....haiz....really need to buck up on achieving my goals (if u read my previous blog)
Spent an hr + in Kino & bought a book recommeded by Adam. Felt abit of pinch, cos no 20% promo, card only entitle 10%. I really need to brush up my reading speed. At this rate I m gg, how m i suppose to read soooo many books in such short period....therefore, only solution was to..........
Next stop, Metro Paragon to get all my Origins stuff....kekeke.
My Buys.....

Bought this "Peace of Mind" Again my dear friend HL recomended this to me....gd for headaches & pms. Tested at the counter, really relieves immdiately & refreshing smell. I like.....hehehe....

Oooooooppppppssssss!!!!! Really need to do some damage control cut dwn on beauty products....My loots $250....*Piangzzz* Hope the set can last me at least 6mths... =p

I was quite tempted to try on the Youthoupia firming range. But quite exp ah...cost at least $90++nper item...OMG!!! Think i better wait for the next 20% ba...had ordered some firming ampoule from ZR...try on those 1st..~~~~

Splurging Againz....

Went to collect my tenseup ex from a spreer this morning which I ordered 3 weeks ago....=)

Happen to passby 1 of the shops at Jurong Point....Omg!!!

My intension to enter Bega was just to get a bag key chain. The SA..."小姐, 看看我們的依服嗎?" She ling a few in her arms to show me....At 1st I was like...err...not very interested in all the blouses she showed me. cos i had "No" intension of buying anything more than the key chain.
As I was browsing the key chain she started again.
"小姐, 现在买包包送一个key chain..." immediately she bring up a bag to show me...actually i had some thoughts of getting a white bag. but cos my 2 spree bags just arrived yest & i ordered another 1 a couple of days ago..so i made an excuse that I do not want the bag...kekeke

A top caught my eye, she bring tat to me & showed me a few others. I decided to try a few since she is soOoo persistant. I tried at least 6 tops, 2 skirts another colleague of hers constantly knock on my fitting door & "
小姐，我拿了多几个款式让你try....." Nearly fainted in the fitting room...think they showed not less than 20 something tops & skirts...haiz, in the fitting i was telling myself, I should not spend too much on clothings, most probably gg on HK trip in Sept shall spend there.

Walked out of the shop poorer by $117.00 with 2 tops & 1 skirt...

My determination is so low....kekeke.....but I muz say these SA r very persistant to sell their clothes. I been to other shops & most of them are like tat nowadays....once u try a piece, they will continously tag behind u wanting to show u the whole shop as thou u din browse them on the displays....Wonder this is consider gd scv or hard sell.

My Spree arrived

Having a long wait for my bags from PG Mall...I waited 2 mths...Ding Dong here & there finally it arrived. Quality looks good...=)

Previously oso ordered a long cardigan...kekeke....

Look at my loots...hur hur hur....

Yest I rcv an sms from Orgins....Yooohooo...they have 20% disc again...I hv been longing this for a very very long time...kekeke...cos there are a couple of things which I plan to buy. I have looking at normstrom to compare if the prices are cheaper. Hmm..I think is cheaper by a few bucks per product...mayb i shall buy from them next time...kekeke

HK Kim Gary Rest @ Vivocity

Its weekend again...Didn't do much shopping, more like window shopping...SG is jus so small...fashion everywer are the same...nothing much...probably looking 4ward GSS nxt mth...=)
Bought this cardigan JE yest evening...I like to have big eyes...but too poor to go for ops...kekeke....so decided to buy this for trial...I tried Acuvue but seem my iris is not big enuff & not too obvious...so decided to try Freshkon & Freshlook...Not too exp...bought from HB's frequent opticals. $20 a pair for monthly usage =) Shall wear this tml...hehe... Went to HK Kim Gary Restaurant at Vivocity. Ambience not bad. Facing the Sentosa. Their menu looks appetising. Those who are fan of baked rice... Mus Try!!!I ordered HK style cheese baked rice with pork chop. Slurp...!!!! Their pork chop is so tender. Rice has a grainy texture, unlike swensen's baked rice is too soft. Taste not bad....worth trying...price quite alrite. They have a few special set meals which comes with some drinks additional 2 bucks...my order Peppermint Aloe Vera Drink...Cool!!!

HB ordered Supreme Mix Grill Curry Swiss Cheese Baked Rice..YUmmies!!! The curry is not jap curry style. It has abit of assam & oriental curry taste...not too spicy, according to my standard...thos who can take spicy food worth giving a try...=)

Total Meal for 2 = $30.85 --- Affordable. Will revisit again...They r quite crowded at weekends...B patient... =)
Tat's all for my weekend!!!

Here comes my Origins Facial today...

Serene saw my blog on this last week & she decided to try out with me...so we meet up at 6pm & head for our facial at Raffles city robinson origins counter...
We were brought to this small room on 3rd floor...Quite a cozy room with soothing music. they will be serving 6 customers when more to come later...We did our 45 min facial. Actually nothing too great compare to other facial as they dun do extraction. Mainly using their cleansing lotion, scrub, whitening toner, brightening lotion, mask, serum etc...But their massage was good...they did a head & slight shoulder massage...wahaha....relieves my stress & I nearly doze off manz!!! Think I mus consider signing some massage package some day...kekeke
Overall experience, not bad...cos the $80 we paid can redeem fully for any origins products...i m so cheapo..hiak hiak hiak...
After facial, decided to get their whitening package set...since they new launch & is having promo...can help save abit...hahaha...of cos, i phyco my fren abit to buy some of their products, but oso keep an eye on her...to prevent her from splurging too much on facial products again...kekeke...end up she bought some...but hopefully it will help calm her skin for her recent stressssed breakouts....=)Whitening Set includes: W. Toner, Brightening Lotion, Stress Easing Serum & Nighttime Anti-Wrinkle Treatment

Oh..I mus say...realised their promoters are quite well trained. i patronise a few diff outlets & most of the time, they can explain their products well...& quite friendly....not too pushy...not like other comestic counter staff who either gives u an attitude for asking too many questions & might end up not buying....
& they are quite generous on their door gifts...although they are of 5ml sample packs, at least is a selection of diff products which u could test out for a week or 2 b4 considering to buy...u noe their stuff r Not CHEAP!!!
Freebies.....

Famished liaoz.....walked round the basement abit...head for Thai express....2 of us damn KS...haha...

Our orders:
1. Basil beef Rice
2. Green curry ckn rice
3. Seafood tomyum soup

Can u imagine the 2 of us ate so much? wahahaha....think she mus be very guilty liao...for meeting me for dinner... saw her blogging that she had gained 3kg & yet...i "coax" her to order green curry ckn ....kekeke....hw evil of me...*Grinz* ...Nitey...
