*touchdown*
DAY 1
Elisha’s Bday – All of us reached in the morning, all flying from different cities in Asia. Sha was from KL, Noi and me flew from Brunei, Ceci and Yan flew from Miri.
Our first mission was to ‘sapu’ Bugis (Bagis – Sha’s version). With only a few hours before dawn, we didnt shop much. Dinner was at Marche, 313. I like their concept. Its like a supermarket and real food are used as decoration. Everything is SO Fresh and it does make us hungry for more food, even when we are full! The ice cream was super super delicious – Movenpick. MUST TRY! Mushroom soup was fine as well. They have everything, pasta, pizza, deserts, salads, juices, crepes, pastries, etc..
We headed to Acid bar across 313, where there was a small stage where Khai and this other guy performed live. The music was good, he can sing well and we enjoyed every moment with it. Maybe its the alcohol effect.
*us and the bday girl!*

DAY 2
Orchard – We pratically spent the whole day on Orchard Road. Breakfast was at Din Tai Fung at Paragon. Yam paste dimsum was super delicious and their signature dish is a must-try item too! Far East Plaza where ceci desperately wanted to go, proved to be a MUST-GO shopping centre. They have loads to offer, and not to mention, CHEAP and NICE! we called this, PENG LENG ZHENG!
We made our way to ION and Somerset after that. It was 7pm when we realised it was about time to go back to the hotel. Definitely had a hard time getting a taxi. I asked Elisha to ask for directions and she was like choosing a husband. I ended up asking a kid/man for directions and he thought i was pulling his leg. Thanks to Noi and Sha for laughing at me when I asked him! =P
Babes, i wont forget our ‘taxi’ experience when i was shouting at you girls to ask for help! Ive got so much to carry and i had to run with all the bags to the taxi. When i got into the car, the first thing i said was, “ Cipet! I want to scold people already!”. haha.. frustrated to the max!
That night was also the first time I visited Clarke Quay. How i wish Brunei has that kind of place to hang out at night. We had our drinks at Allergo, where we met the cutey- Jaime Liu. He’s a diver and he likes to travel around Asia. Glad to have met you Jaime! And, thanks for your hospitality! Ill definitely go back there to visit you again, the next trip. After a few drinks + Chai mui, all of us were Wee Wang Wang~ We headed to Mustafa Centre to get perfumes, where Singaporeans claimed to be the cheapest in town! We also got to meet Uncle David Copperfield! He’s the taxi driver that talks a lot and looks scary.. like a psycho. haha! Then in the end, he gave us a discount on the taxi fare, and we finally called him KOKO and he was so happy! LOL
*lovely Jaime*
DAY 3
Split up – it was the last day to shop and we made our own ways to get our stuffs. Me and noi tried the Waraku Japanese Restaurant and I got to say, Brunei has got better japanese food! And I said that to James, a friend of mine whom I met over the weekend. James and I had dinner at MYHANDBURGER and the burger was actually good. I had the Green Tea Ice for desert and it was better than those that Snow Ice have.
I headed back to Allergo after dinner but didnt stay long. We went for some karaoke with Yick! thanks Yick for your hospitality as well! I’ll see you next month during CNY! I owe you one meal! :)
DAY 4
Chilli Crab – Fung arrived Singapore that morning and we met up for some chilli crab at Jumbo Restaurant. Yes C! I know you werent exaggerating when you said their Crabs were 5/5. Its THAT GOOD! But me cut me fingers while eating it! Despite being so full, fung insisted we should try Beard Papas, grill chicken and pork. For some reason, im thankful he came only on the last day. If not, we will be eating our hearts out in Singapore =P But Fung, thats great to catch up in Singapore after 7 years since we’ve last visited Singapore together. Good old days hoh!
*Super-licious Chilli Crabs!*
The trip ended when we flew back Brunei last nite, But my heart is still in Singapore. I guess Ive never walked that much for so long. Can barely feel my legs! Our next trip will be this year end!
James, hope to see you at Adelaide this April. :)
