TGIF!!!

I realized that I have been obsessed over a couple of stuff recently.

1. English TV Dramas

Not Korean, not Hong Kong, not Japanese, not Taiwan dramas. Yes, I am eat potato one. Haha. I am so crazy over them. I can just sit on my sofa and watch episodes after episodes. But a lot of the dramas are on their season break till October! Why they keep us in suspense for months? ): Lucky I just found Pretty Little Liars and I have 3 seasons to catch up on! Should keep me occupied for a while :D:D:D

Anw here are all the dramas I have watched / am watching. I especially adore CW Network dramas though I gave Secret Circle like10 episodes and I still hate it! Maybe will give it another chance when I have nothing to watch.

• Gossipgirl 
• 90210
• The Vampire Diaries
• Hart of Dixie
• Pretty Little Liars
• Dallas
• One tree hill
• Ringer

2. Ice cream
HAPPY FOOD!! BB and I went to the supermarket and bought 4 different types of ice cream.. 'Nuff said. I am really craving Mint Chocolate Chunk from Ben&Jerrys but they don't sell it at the supermarkets ): Anw Hagen Daz Cappuccino Truffle is DA BOMBZ. & this is coming from a coffee ice cream hater. Haha, go try!

3. Shopping
Okay. Lumped it all into one heading but I have to say but it's really not that general. I am crazy over shopping at H&M and Zara. And I am crazy over accessories at the moment. And shoes. And bags. And makeup! It's like I can never have enough. The wants never stop!

I AM COVETING THESE! WILL SOMEONE BUY THEM FOR ME PLEASE!!!

Shoes, shoes & more shoes!

Bags, bags & more bags!

Clothes, clothes & more clothes!

Just sent a peplum skirt with a twist to production. We also have a similar blazer (without the embellishments) coming up EOY. Super luxe material and perfect waisted cut.  Up & coming are indonesian influences like paisley prints! Be the first to hop onto the upcoming trend with RVR's Paisley shorts still available here! 

4. Instagram

Korean BBQ @ TST (the best!)

Had more girlfriend time last week when Char was in town ♥

We decided to head for some Korean BBQ. If you're in Hong Kong and you're craving for some good Korean BBQ, this is definitely the place to go! The restaurant is managed by Koreans, there's lots of Korean customers patronizing the place and I've been here with my Korean friends a couple of times. Authentic enough? :D

I made reservations beforehand as the place can get pretty packed. For the night, we decided on the set meal for two. This came with loads of appetizers, beef, chicken and cuttlefish, toufu soup and two bowls of rice.

The beef & chicken was very well-marinated. The korean auntie there was helping us cook our meat. She kept shaking her head at us cos we were too busy eating and catching up and left the meat to burn on the grill. Oops! Surprisingly, she was pretty friendly and chatty that day even though they were pretty busy that Wednesday night.

As there was three of us, we added on another spicy toufu soup and a kimichi pancake. 

The food was pretty delish! Though too much  food for us small eaters! Had leftovers ):

Ended off the meal with some oranges. Super yummy! I don't know why but the oranges in Hong Kong always seem to taste sweeter. We spent about S$20 per person, which is about the same as what you'd spend in Singapore. However, the portions in Hong Kong were much more generous in comparison, making it more worth the money!

Anw, the food pictures are making me hungry! Probably drag Rugrats there next week for dinner. Somehow I always think Korean BBQ is healthy! So I don't feel guilty pigging out on it. Heh. Happy weekend!

We like to EAT all day, and PARTY all night!

Sunday night. Blasting upbeat music, hoping to get myself pumped up for the new week. I am a Monday hater. I am constantly counting down to the weekends. And the cycle goes on and on.

Suyee was in town last week. Met up with her to have Dim Sum lunch at Jasmine Garden.

I love drinking all types of chinese tea. The cute little cups they served it in made us feel like we were having high tea. 

We ordered so much food for two, it was insane! There was egg tarts, cheong fan, suckling pig, dan-dan noodles, XO carrot cake, salt & pepper toufu, custard egg buns and not to forget the usual har gao and siew mai. I think you'll be full just looking at the photos. Haha.

While tables around us had a constant turnover, we sat there for almost 2 hours just eating and catching up. And of cos, we were completely stuffed after the meal. I love girlfriend time :)

Met Suyee and her friends for dinner after work the next day. We headed to Yung Kee at Central. Yung Kee is a 1 star Michelin Restaurant famous for their Roast Goose. I have been there a few times and their cooked food is pretty delicious too. But be warned! The good food comes at a price.

We started off with a plate of century egg with ginger. I love this! It is a must order for me everytime I am here. If you love it, they do sell century eggs in boxes of 6. I've bought it back to Singapore a couple of times cos my daddy loves them too! :D:D:D

We ordered a couple of dishes to share among the 6 of us :) I enjoyed the scrambled eggs with prawns, fish maw & chicken thick soup, braised toufu and fried rice. We wanted to order a roast pigeon but it was sold out. The lady kept pushing us to take a braised pigeon in claypot and we did. I thought it was alright and it was pretty big for a pigeon. I hated the presentation tho, that poor little bird.

And for the highlight of the night! Roast goose! I love roast goose and I think it tastes better than ducks cos it's so oily and fatty. And all unhealthy food just tastes so good doesn't it? Anw, it was a small portion cos we got a double meat platter. There was soya chicken too, which was just okay.

I actually just came back from Singapore. Had a tiring but so damn awesome weekend. Mainly cos of this:

Haha, the guys just took my camera and took so many rubbish photos! Half of them were blur or stuff like this? :|

A big THANK YOU to everyone who made my weekend an absolute blast!

Haha. The upcoming stuff are mad awesome! Great feedback from everyone who saw them and I am keeping every single piece. Time to clear my wardrobe!

Off to end my weekend with some episodes of Pretty Little Liars. I will be back to blog about the Korean BBQ I had with another bunch of friends that came to Hong Kong last week too! Had so much sinful good food last week, it's a crime that I have been too lazy to hit the gym. Please don't let my tummy show. Have a good week ahead! xx
