Bedok Reservoir

We visited Bedok Reservoir on 6 May 2012. The sky was slightly cloudy. Bedok Reservoir is a reservoir located in the eastern part of Singapore, to the north of Bedok New Town. The reservoir has a surface area of 880,000 m², and a capacity of 12.8 million m³. The mean depth of the reservoir is 9 m, with a maximum depth of 18.2 m. The shoreline length is 4.3 km.

Yomenya Goeman

Yomenya Goemon Japanese Spaghetti House is a Japanese food outlet that sells only spaghetti cooked the Japanese way! The nearest MRT station is Raffles MRT station near exit I.

Vicki and I met up dinner on 18 May 2012, a Friday. A rare occasion, as most of the time we would be at CSC for Friday growth. They were having CER that week. We had initially wanted to have Sushi Tei. Yet there was a long queue, hence Vicki suggested Yomenya Goemon. Good choice.

 Dinner Time

 Vicki's dish had mushrooms, prawn and salmon

Pat had the seafood dish. Rich in cheese, was tasty. 

Both dishes were priced at $13.5++. 

After dinner we headed to esplanade and chatted with the night scene of Marina Bay Sands in  view.  It was an enjoyable Friday. Thanks Vicki, always a gem being around with you. God Bless.

Old Hong Kong

Old Hong Kong at City Hall was the place I met Xuying for lunch on 18 May 2012. We walked around a few places before we chanced upon this place where we had our chinese meal. I  always love eating Tim Sum. 

 Century Egg Porridge

When we asked the service staff is the bowl of porridge to be shared, she said it was individual serving. Unlike the porridge we have at crystal jade, this serving is only partial. Thick and the ingredients were also apportioned. 

 Egg Tarts

This dish is a must have for me when I have dim sum.  The verdict for this  dish - average, the skin was dry. 

 Fish Skin - Thumbs up

This has to be my favourite dish. It's so chewy and addictive that within 20min, we whipped off all the fish skin on the plate. To be dipped with the sauce

 Shrimp Cheong Chong Fan - Delicious

 Wantan

Was a little disappointed with this dish. It was more of the crispy part of the wantan and very little of the ingredients. Crystal Jade has better dish of this.

 Lunch spread

This is my second visit to this place. I must say, it's safer to stick to the tim sum dishes. For the high price that we pay, one would expect better quality as in more ingredients in the dishes.

Gold Coast (Dec 15- 21, 2011)

Gold Coast was the place Gina and I headed for last year from Dec 15- 21, 2011. I enjoying exploring Australia during year end. Gina has been to 4 different parts of Australia with me.
