It's located next to Hilton Hotel, 'The forum - Shopping Mall' at Orchard.
The restaurant was nicely furnish with fabulous ambiance, with an open concept design for the kitchen. Able to see those Chefs making Pizza right on the spot after taking orders!

When i looked at the menu, i was petty surprised that the main courses was mainly PIZZAS!!!
LOL! they served others food like Pastas and sandwiches as well..

Forget the name for this Pizza! =P

Jamaican Jerk Chicken
-Spicy Sweet flavor-

'Perking Duck Pizza'

Pepperoni Supremo
-Cheesy flavor!-


They served all kinds of innovative Pizzas, from those traditional ones to Thin Crust..

LE LE POT


After clearing IPPT, i was down with Fever, cough, flu virus...
Drop all physically activities for a week excluding rock climbing =P


Wondering whether it's the weather that are turning hotter or due my fever.
Almost everyday when i woke up, am sweating!!! So miserable...
Fever keep going ON and OFF, but the most crucial one is the Flu Virus.
doesn't seen to be recovering.. so i decided to took MC for a day and consult the doctor last week..

Can't believe what happened to me...!

Told the doctor that i'm was having fever, coughing and flu...
And she gave me 3 different types of medicine based on the symptoms that i mentioned...
And i asked her, whether she will be giving me antibiotics coz i felt it will helps me recover faster and cure the virus also...

Guess what she said??? No need... Don't depend too much on medication!
Try to let your body system fight off the virus... (*Ok Fine~)

i continued and asked her what kind of food should i avoid for the time being?
E.g Spicy, oily food...
she replied... You shouldn't avoid eating any food and continue your normal eating routine. Shouldn't restrain yourself from getting nutrients..

When i heard this... I know "It's the end"....
High chance, i will be seeking another doctor...

Conclusion - That's the most GG doctor i have ever seen in my life...

Battling all my way through to regain my fitness until this week, felt slightly better... =)


Organize a casual dinner for my colleagues on Friday's evening...
Luckily, i was feeling better... almost recover... Manage to enjoy this meal! =P

Went to LE LE POT @ Tiong Bahru
Consider quite a new store over there, went to ate with my friends previously and found the foods was good.
So recommended my colleagues to dine there since they crave for steamboat...


Went all out for the MA LA soup, order the super duper 'HOT' one...
Started eating since 7pm, by the time when we leave than i realised it already 10pm! =D

Some of my colleagues are really hardcore MA LA eater.
They drink the soup together with the chill oil and still said it's okie only~
My stomach is still burning now after drinking the soup~!!! They are inhuman!!!

Going for Rock Climbing tomorrow!
Hope to perform better after recovering! =)

Climbers Laboratory & Senki Japanese Restaurant

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! =)
Especially to those couples that are tying knots on this special day 10/10/10.


Went to try on 'rock' climbing on this Saturday...
My first time, new sports, new experiences..
Use to see those artificial wall around but never try it before...
Always thought it was an easy sport...!
But i was wrong, after i tried..... =P

Taken before the 'real' game start!

'Posing'

The above pics are not taken during real climb, just some posing pics... =P
For the Real Climb, you need to wear proper gears like climbing shoes, harness, belay device and your most essential Belayer!

If you think that just because you have a pair of strong arms and you can conquer the wall easily, than you are wrong!
It's never easy!
Trust me! until you experience it yourself than you will know... =)

This sport trains your fighting spirit as well as your endurance!

I was petty surprised that the number of female climbers are more than the guys.
And some of them are good climbers...!

There are total of 28 different routes, with different setting & level for each wall..
The height for each wall is around 15-20m, which is around 4th storey tall.

Petty scary when you climb halfway through and you run out for strength to carry on.
So what you do when you run out of energy?
Just let go of your grip and let your belayer lower you down slowly...

It's a Tiring Sport!!!
Drain your all your strength away..
Still remember my last few climb, totally got no more strength to grip on and carry on any further... My arms are shaking~ lol....

Conclusion: You can't even give a firm hand shake after your climb! haha... =)


After which, went to Senki Japanese Restaurant for dinner.
Located at Killiney Road, near Somerset.

Have a good feast, after a long day of climbing!
Enjoying this sumptuous Ala-Carte Buffet! =P

Appetizer - Mango Salad

Chawanmushi - steamed egg custard with cheese! Yummy! =P

hmm... A slice of mango on top of the sushi...
Think it's call Dragon Maki..

Easy! It's called SUSHI! =P

This is the BEST!
'Sashimi Platter'

Order the most number of times through the dinner! With all the fresh and luscious seafood displayed on the plate. Tuna, Salmon, Octopus, Swordfish and more...

Just can't stop eating~ Taste so nice....
Cost around $38 per person..

Project D ....... "Loading"

Finally began the journey of Project "D".... Yahoo~! =P

Went for my 1st Practical Lesson at Bukit Gombak.
Learn how to shift gears, brake, stop... and drive around... lol...

Initially i though the instructor gonna give me a long speech for 1st day, without any driving... Felt a bit disappointed, coz he give a speech for about half an hour and i still haven't touch on anything yet!!! lol...
However after his explanation, i got a clearer picture...

Managed to drive round the estates. Maybe because i have some road experiences previously from my riding days, i didn't feel anything when i see vehicles around me... lol... Which is good for me... Able to stay calm and continue with my driving...

At one point of the time, i was waiting to move off while waiting for the traffic lights to change signal. 1 Taxi driver 'horn' me, because i was moving off slowly...??
But HeLLo~
Taxi uncle, Are you Sleeping?? Relax lar~ lol...


Still Learning!!! 'L' Plate lar~
So impatient sia~ =P
