sweet council...

After VCF council last, last monday...I joined them for supper because I didnt eat my dinner.
To the dismay of the guys, the rich vcf girls decided to eat supper at a high class hotel restaurant because they sell their pastries at half price after 1030pm.

Being poor, I shared with 2 other guys... Here are the dishes:

creme brule
crispy egg on the outside and soft and sweet in the inside. While chewing on the cripsy skin the soft egg filling just melts in your mouth...

Diplomatic
A crispy choclate waffle with soft creamy hazelnut filling. The chocolate is slightly bitter and the hazelnut cream is just simply heavenly...
I forgot its name..some rather fancy name I suppose

I kinda forgot its taste too...but I know the chocolate powder is very yummy...

Baba

I dont know how it got its name, but the spongy cake is not like any ordinary sponge cake. It is extra spongy and if u press the cake to the tip of your mouth the rum oozes out of the sponge cake and fills your mouth...yummmm

The size of the pastries are really not big. In fact, they are rather small and even with half price it still cost $3...

One step closer to become a singaporean...

Yes... Today, I had embraced the singaporean culture - queuing.this was the queue behind us while we were queuing up....

The queue was so long that we took about 1 hour and 10 mins to queue up. And for what did we queue up for? What was it that is worth waiting 1 hour and 10 mins?
Donuts !!!
more donuts
Donut factory
Their business was so good that they had to limit each customer to buy only 2 dozen.

The wait for donuts was so long that everybody would naturally tend to buy more because it is more worth it to buy, let say, 1 dozen of donuts so that they could keep till the next day after 1 tiring and long hour of queuing.

So, the joke comes in. Eric challenge me to buy just 1 donut. Buy just 1 donut after queuing for 1 ++ hours. Buy just 1 donut out of the 15 different flavours they have.

Imagine after queuing up for 1 hour, when the worker at the counter finally starts to take my order, I happily point my index finger indicating "1" to order my donuts.

The worker would probably ask me "Are u ordering 1 dozen donuts ? " then I would say "just 1 donut". Then the worker would be shocked and the bakers behind the counter would drop their trays of freshly baked donut in shock!

who on earth would queue up for 1 hour just to buy 1 donut.

But anyway, the donuts are nice. And I bought 1 dozen in the end.

In the midst of a busy week of "photoshopping", web designing and "flashing", I've decided to redesign my blog and give it a new look. Well, so how is it? nice?

My blog theme this time would include lighter colour themes of mainly blue.
