No Dialect Please

Mummy and Daddy started talking in a strange language these days. I believe it is Teochew which I obviously don't understand. And I have a strange feeling it is because they don't want me to know what they are talking about. Maybe I should stay with my grand aunties and learn to speak Teochew so Mummy and Daddy won't be able to hide anything from me.

Musselicious...

Daddy had this sudden craving for mussels (no he is not pregnant, just fat) so we headed for The Mussel Guys at Vivo for lunch. The mussels served here is much bigger and tastier than those at Brussels Sprouts. Daddy is quite sure they are cheaper here too. As usual, I can only eat pasta so Daddy ordered the Salmon Pasta in cream sauce for me and I must say it was very tasty as I had 2 servings of it. The chicken wings didn't look too bad too but it was spicy so I couldn't eat them. Of course Mummy and Daddy didn't think I should eat anything that came out of shells so I also had to avoid the mussels.

La Petite Cuisine

We were at Serene Centre this morning and Mummy and Daddy decided to have an early lunch at La Petite Cuisine. It is a little French restaurant at the side entrance. The chef is this very grand-fatherly looking old French man who cooks from a glass kitchen. The food was very nice but I cannot say the same about the head waiter. He sounded very rude and impatient but Mummy and Daddy wasn't gonna let that spoil our lunch.

As usual I had pasta while Mummy and Daddy had the Duck Confit and Goat Cheese with salad.

For dessert, we headed to Island Creamery for ice cream. I had fun doodling with their crayons.

Barney Christmas Special

I ended my GUG class in the late morning and Mummy decided we should stay around and catch the Barney Christmas Special at United Square. We had a quick lunch at the food court and like all "kiasu" Singaporean, we decided to get a good spot to catch the show. We went to Ben & Jerry's on the third floor where we had a bird's eye view of the stage. We had ice cream on waffles as we watched 30 mins of Barney and friends celebrating Christmas. They sang Christmas carols and also some of their own songs. I had a good time but I'm not sure about Mummy and Daddy. They cannot believe they actually braved the crowd and caught the performance. They must really love me very much.

Fika...

No I am not scolding anyone. It is the name of a restaurant that serves very nice Swedish food and located along Arab Street. Mummy and Daddy like this place cos first of all it serves very good food and second of all, the decoration is very nice and clean. We ordered the Seafood Pasta as that is one dish I like and can eat on my own. The serving was surprisingly very large and the sauce very rich with lots of herbs. We also ordered the Grilled Chicken crepe which again was a large serving and very tasty. Yummy...

I Like Porridge

Nai Nai and Ye Ye have been eating at this porridge store for the longest time, I think even before Daddy was born. They started in Chinatown and has been moving around and each time Nai Nai and Ye Ye managed to track them down. Unlike other porridge stores in Maxwell Market where you have to wait in line for your order, this one takes your order and allows you to sit down and enjoy a cup of coffee before you get your porridge.

I probably don't remember but Mummy and Daddy brought me here when I was a baby. But since I started running around, it is difficult to eat here without a baby chair, so we haven't been there for more than a year. The aunties there said I have grown so much, which is good cos it has been more than a year since they last saw me.

Besides the porridge, the coffee there is apparently very good too....

Horses!

I love animals. Whenever Mummy and Daddy brings me out, I try to bring as many of them with me as possible. On a lucky day if Mummy has space in her bag, I will get to bring the whole team out. I pronounce "Horse" very accurately and I guess Mummy and Daddy concluded that I like horses very much.









We got to see horses in action today when Mummy and Daddy brought me to Riders Cafe. It is a very nice cafe located near Turf City and from the balcony seats, you can actually see the stables with all the horses. We didn't plan on going there at first cos without reservations, it is almost impossible to get a table there on a weekend. It was my lucky day cos there was an empty table when we got there and even luckier that it was a balcony seat. We ordered brunch and as we ate, we saw horses being led into the stables for the changeover. I had lots of fun at Riders Cafe and I am sure Mummy and Daddy will bring me back there again soon.








And of course I didn't forget my animals as I ate. As you can see from the picture, I was trying to feed my sheep with french toast. I think she likes it.
