Date with the Gang

Lunch at KO Japanese Restaurant, Intercontinental, to celebrate Xianhe's birthday! All of us were there except for Ivan, who had to work OT despite it being a Saturday (afternoon somemore). Poor guy, to think that it's only his 1st month or so at work.

The food was better than satisfactory, especially the big and crispy prawn tempura which left WW drooling away. The set lunches Feng, Xianhe, Henry and Michael ordered were served like an eight-course meal, completed savourly with wasabi ice-cream. The other choice lunches Tian, WW and Dennis ordered had salad, sashimi, rice set, chawanmushi, california sushi and ended off with fruits. Unconventional me ordered Tempura soba which also came with salmon handroll, some salad and chawanmushi. The food's great in all! Absolutely deserves another visit.

Yeah, view KO's lunch photos

After the meal we shopped around Bugis Junction; the ladies off to buy mascara (realised only I hardly wear them while most others do more often) and to get Xianhe's present. The birthday girl decided to KIV the Renoma wallet she spotted and to go around recce more instead.

Then, time flies... to near 5pm and we set off in our couple pairs and small groups. WW and I went Punggol Park, thinking to fly kite but went stroll around the park instead. Rather big and just right for jogging. Nice! And we had dinner at Chomp Chomp area, but at the other food centre with a thinner crowd.

Today is quite a day of exploration. More to come!
