It's A Long Week ...

... after yet another 4-day long weekend last week. To be exact, we'd 2 x 4-day long weekends in Aug.. so nice... Looking ahead, no PH for the next 2 months... Yawn~

The last long weekend started with a sumptuous dinner at a Thai restaurant at Robertson Walk, just next to our ex The Bar (& where Newsroom was previously) :)
Ordered too much... also had 6 pieces of Super-sized deep fried spring rolls that're not in the picture. But their Phad Thai and Tom Kha Gai were good & we'll definitely go back again for these 2.

A month ago, we found this nice Thai restaurant, SomThai. The modern yet cosy setup was appealing. The few segments of live piano music was also excellent for chilling. But we already had dinner then, somewhere we haven't been to for a long long time - the once very famous ba kut teh at Mohammad Sultan... where I used to frequent during The Bar days including a few times with my then-suitor now-hubby haha. Anyway, we decided to have a drink at SomThai instead. Hubby had his usual Hoegaarden while I had their SomThai drink with coconut liquor & we ordered some bites too..... My drink wasn't a nice one but that didn't deter us from going back. Visiting Mohammad Sultan has always been a good one, with so much to reminisce...

Celebrated mum's birthday on Sat.. we'd hi-tea @ MBS' Rise. Not too bad but the spread at lunch (& dinner) is more eloborated.
Pots of TWG tea (we all had Chamomile except hubby had Earl Grey) that came with the hi tea. We like.

We'd a long day out on Sun - after church, we went Millenia Walk.. wanted to get something from Parco but the brand was no longer there. But I got to indulge in my currently fav choco marquise (i ate 1 there & bought 2 home!). Then had dim sum lunch @ SAFRA Mount Faber. 3rd stop - Victoria Secret @ RWS. The last stop was ION where I bought some skincare products from Sloane. Usually on Sundays we'd try to be home very early to (mentally) prepare ourselves for another week's work. But we're not working the following day, so we could stay out late.

We didn't do much for the next 2 days... just stayed around the neighbourhood and went slow with activities... It's just great ...
