Explore Those Tastebuds


i cant resist the excitement of exploring new places - of trying a new menu.

be it overseas or local delights, it's still a new experience.

i love the joy when i taste something really fantastic and i smile stupidly to myself. or i'll exclaim w joy and suppress my laughter. Kang n Xin knows this well.

there's the occasional buffet, but the only buffet in recent times that i've eaten is those during hi-tea. i think the range would be just nice. i havent tried lunch or dinner buffets before cos i think after just 1 round, i'd give up already. he says actually i'm quite a big eater, which i hesitantly admit so but control myself to prevent myself from ballooning. of course my occasional running might help, but i believe prevention is better than cure!
that doesn't mean i try a whole lot of stuff on the menu, but basically and most of the time it's just 2 main courses if we're talking abt ala-carte, and unless the appetisers look t0-die-for, we'd rather give it a miss and go for supper some time later on.

he entertains me by bringing me to different places to try the different food. searching food blogs and sometimes thru reviews from frenz' blogs also give me an inkling of where to go.

alot of ppl always says that the east has lotsa good food. i'd agree only if i were to try more places that i haven't been to, so i'll jio ppl to intro or i'll anyhow whack a place which i think looks nice. Chat Masala was 1 tt i suggested to Nitz sometime back when we wanted to have dinner near home. nice but a tad ex, and after tt we still indulged in cheesecake n ice cream a little further down the road! was a pretty sinful night w all tt curry n sugar! Manpuku was a place i heard of at Tamp 1 but nv tried cos thot there'd be alot of ppl. but when Marilyn brought me there for dinner last wk, it was half filled n i wasnt quite happy w my food. Shokudo would still win hands down. Big Fish was also a good suggestion from yours truly since i've always wanted to try tt place but nv had a chance. wide range of variety, mid-priced w a nice boss.

i dun think there'll ever be a deadend tosuggestions for food places. just depends on ur mood for the meal and if u're game enuf to try something other than the usual franchise restaurants.
