GoodbyeKyoko, Rie and I met up on the 29th of September for some Thai food in Kovan. As Kyoko would be returning to Shanghai the following day, we thought it would be good to put up something like a 'last lunch' sorta gathering. Did I say that she designed the massage chairs under the company OSIM? So cool la! キョンキョン、もっと連絡してね？お元気で。
Speaking of the food, it's been a while since I've had Thai food. And the dish that I ordered was none other than the usual dinner that I'd get when there's no chicken rice - kapao gai (basil leaves and chicken). Now now, I already hear you moaning away wondering why couldn't I get something new for a change; I'd like to but I wanna see how authentic the stuff are first.
Overall, I'd say that it's about 90% similar to what you'd get on the streets of Bangkok. What's different? Soy sauce, it just tastes local... Great stuff nonetheless. You can even try out the hot sauce and I'd say they taste Thai! Just lacking the sprinkling of sugar over a hot plate of phad thai (thai fried noodles) that everyone goes for. I'd go there once in a while when I'm feeling rich though. $7 for an average meal is definitely not a Thai pricing my friend...
Hello
Say hi to my newly acquired 28-85mm f3.5-4.5 Minolta AF lens! This baby sure packs a punch, featuring a macro switch and awesome optics! Of course, this will be replacing my sad Sony DT 17-80mm kit lens. *Cues Awe sound effect*
I suppose it's not that hard to let go of the kit lens in the end... After all, the pictures are great, colours look great and just check out the bokeh from the macro!
Yes I know... That's my dad with his boxers in the background, that's his sleeping wear.
Sleep liao! Oh yeah, anyone interested in going to Haw Par Villa before school begins?
