Weekend --
Late lunch at Grill Asia along Tomas Morato. Food was really good. (The great thing with dining with a lot of people is that you get to try more dishes.)
This was a full plate of spring rolls. They're really generous with the filling -- the shrimp was yum.
Malay Pork with really, really, really yummy peanut (satay) sauce. The pork is marinated in curry and then grilled.
A bowl of Mongolian Rice (good for 2 to 3 people) plus inihaw pork, cooked and served in a really interesting, delicious way.
And a pic of me -- (with Johann and friends, Pia and Neal)
I like my top. Johann and I found it in the super-bargain rack (70% off!) of Esprit in Singapore. ^_^

Ending the Singapore Chronicle --
On our last evening (Saturday), Johann and I decided to revisit Esplanade, because my brother told us that it looks really beautiful at night.
It is also the time for the Singapore Arts Festival and, every weekend, there are groups staging various performances. We really didn't linger to watch any of the performances but took the opportunity to walk around and visit the Esplanade Mall.
We found ourselves here. Popcorn Pop! It's a store that sells movie memorabilia -- this place has EVERYTHING and we were trying to decide which posters and leaflets (from Japan) to purchase. The store owner was very kind and could sense our confusion -- he asked us what we were planning with the poster and he pointed us towards other options. We ended up purchasing a set of In the Mood for Love postcards, which we will have framed here. They had buttons and keychains and the Harry Potter scarves.
The next day, we had a 750am flight out of Singapore (this is the downside of choosing the cheaper airlines -- one flight in, one flight out). We left the hotel at 5ish (and missed breakfast) and took a cab to Changi. Johann and I had fun exploring the duty-free shops at the airport. ^_^
