Singapore Flyer and Shokudo

Ytd ( sat ) went out with my dear... went to two main places... Singapore Flyer and Shokudo...

but before that, we were shopping at Bugis.. hoping to find birthday present.. for my sis n mum, and for her sister...couldn't find any present.. oh ya... i saw Zhi Xiong and his gf walking at OG Bugis...haha

my dear got discount for the tickets from her friend's friend... we took the 6pm time slot.. sophie was so like a tourist like tat.. fascinated by every small small thing.. she also did buy souvenirs from the retail shop... haha...oops let a big secret..haha.. oh ya.. while queuing up... i saw choon yew, and his gf, and his gf's mum ( i think, its either his or his gf's mum ) also queuing up for the Singapore Flyer... its a small world after all...

the overall experience of the ride was cool... the view is nice.. but when the IR resort is up.. [expected completion Oct 2009 ] the view would be even more spectacular!! if anyone of you are interested to go and try the Singapore flyer.. i reccommend to go at night.. it would be nicer.. and the pics would look nicer cuz no more sunlight...

there were a couple of ways to go there... from the website - http://www.singaporeflyer.com/ . There are shuttle buses, SMRT buses, or you can walk... but walking there was a little difficult cuz of the construction of the F1 stuff...

well, we shared
1) Salmon Omu Rice
2) Plain Rosti
3) Tebasaki (chicken wing)
4) Quail egg roll with bacon (stick)
5) Prawn roll with bacon (stick)
6) Combo 1 Assorted Veg
7) Shokudo tofu cheese cake
8) Green Tea Ice-cream & Red Breen on Crepe

Of all, i like the sticks food ( 3-5) , the prawn was fresh and crunchy... the plain rosti was not bad.. the salmon omu rice wasn't that good... the veg was so-so. The Tofu Cheese cake is nice, it comes with a strawberry sause.. but i don't taste any tofu in the cheese cake..haha.. the crepe was not tat nice lei.. not crispy de. its like pancake kinda texture.. and i have taken before green tea ice-cream and red breen...

so overall experience.. not tat nice ba.. i believe Marche better although i haven't tried the curent Vivocity outlet.. yup... tats about all ba...
