The Adventures of Happie Guppy!: A subtle but distinct difference

It was quite an interesting past few days.

First i scored me a proper badminton racquet and officially became she who has a cool racquet but cant play well..muahahhaha : Arc Sabre 9 Guppy :D
An innocent *evil plot* conversation about my renewed interest in badminton led to porkchop's generous funding of a spanking new Arc Sabre 9 Yonex Badminton racquet for this little guppy! woohoo!

Guppy : " ya i made a new friend and now playing badminton with a bunch of badminton enthusiasts on a weekly basis!"

Porkchop : " thats good . hah at least you are moving. good good"

Guppy : " eh! im the only one playing with a $7 dollar racquet lor everybody got a Yonex..o woe is me misery! and yes im the lousiest player of them all there boohooo!!!" * lobbys hard*

Porkchop : " You better be playing badminton for a long time if i get you this racquet it costs a bomb , and it looks like its for pros..you are not a pro badminton player "

Guppy :" but its pink! "

Porkchop : " ok i buy for u. but this had better not be one of your short attention span interest flings"

Guppy : " YAY! We love Porkchops!"

Then I indulged in too much rich food..as usual..

Checked out the OVA cafe at Paragon
with porkchop ...just could not resist the beautiful pastries that line the cake counter :)

so many pretty colourful sweets for guppies to indulge in!

why is there nobody here?*stresss*

Delicious earl grey tea...

and yummy pastries...

Hung out with Kulcha at Vivocity

where we got ourselves massaged, indulged in some Dim Sum at Bosses restaurant. and perved at some obscenely expensive watches before heading down to Delta sports hall for badminton.

yes i have more food pics! hahahah!

pretty tea pot...

square dimsum boxes with lotsa dimsums...looks nice right? but only tastes so so.. my fav is the deep fried prawn dumplings wrapped in chee cheong fun..the third dish on the bottom right hand side corner of this pic

pic of not so fantastic fried fish skins...wierd..but so so only.

The most dissapointing dish..our beef porridge ..bland..and loaded with wierd veggeis and mushrooms...just abit wrong :P

After badminton...

we headed down to Crystal Jade at Great World City for Dinner :D

where i had another one of those embarassing moment episodes...you know, the one where I go to a nice restaurant with a nice friend..sat down too hard on a loooong cushioned seat... and promptly caused a tiny woman on the other end of the seat to almost get bounced off her seat with the sheer force of my cute behind landing on the cushion of the chair .. ooof!

not very glam

especially when said friend cannot stop laughing @#$@##%&

anyway lucky for this guppy the food was yummy ..Kulcha had to stop laughing to eat. so nyeah.

My favourite - 3 egg spinach :D yum yum yum

Pork Ribs..

Steamed Cod Fish..

hmmm more than enough for me infact toooo much food for one little guppy in one sitting.

Finally, this evening.

I had great plans to take him out to dinner to celebrate his birthday. we could go pick out a gift for him , we could spend some time together..even if it was just sitting around doing nothing it wouldve been nice. but he decided he was too busy to show. Brilliant.

Turns out Kulcha also had nothing to do this evening. so he became my replacement dinner kaki. Im just glad i didnt get a cake ...and i didnt have to eat alone :)

We ended up at some peranakan place at the Esplanade ..heh yes i only know how to go to a few places..because im really bad with directions...any hoooo....we had ourselves some Peranakan food. but i think my pics didnt turn out too nice ...

My favourite Ayam Buah Keluah...moomoo when will u make this dish for me ...when when when?

the ngor hiang was fantastic..i love the chunky chestnuts..

fried kangkong was too wet...and oily * eesh im sounding like a food critic ...oh my gawd is my blog turning into a food blog?! *horror*

Our favourite of the lot -- handmade tofu fried with dried scallop. yum!

the final dish...sambal prawns...which technically only serves 4pcs.. i lobbied for 6 pcs...they served us 5...but because it was too spicy..errrr i couldnt take it...and we were just horrid...we left the extra lone prawn there in the plate..un touched.
