Had a last minute dinner arrangement with my Polymates on one of the April Friday...

The usual guys that i hang out with during my studies or even after graduation.

Dinner @ Ajisen - 4/Apr'08

Zhiliang + Erik

During school days, Erik used to be our (ZL & Me) target of love fight. Haha... what am i talking, anyway u guys rock..!

Erik and his wife


The rest of us - Hong Guan + Me + Guowei

Proceed to Cafe Cartel for DESERTs....!!!!

My desire to loose weight lost to my sweet tooth craving... Me had a Tiramisu wor...! Thus fulfilling night, just that Erik couldn't stay too late cos he is living in the Northern-East side of Sinagpore

After their depart, Piggy came pick me and met John at Kallang Leisure Park for some chit chat cum rounding. Moved on to Singapore railway station for food again...! Yah.. again..!

Tanjong Pagar Railway Station

Nice colony building, isn't it?

Piggy was famished, he tucked in once the food arrived.


I sort of like the place there, very open concept just like the Makan Places in Malaysia. No restriction of parking lot, table setting was all over any corners that is available, no smoking area, etc... Sound very against the rule hor... maybe that's why i like that place~

Bike Asia - 10/Apr ~ 13/Apr

Sometime last week, we travelled all the way from Jurong to Changi Singapore Expo just to attend the "BIKE ASIA 2008" show.

Collabrate with Racewerks, Gamewerks contribute a small small part to work the success of the exhibition.

Not too long ago, my colleague asked if we are still able to find 肉丁 anywhere in Singapore supermarket?


Abruptly i answered, "Got ba... i still saw some in my bf's mum kitchen cupboard..!"

But sadly, after i did a random search from NTUC, Giant or Prime, none have them. Thereafter, i went for a more detail search online and found this....

China stops all exports of Maling food products click here to read more.
Source: Straitstime.com

I not really sure if the 肉丁belong to Maling branding but i am pretty sure the Luncheon Meat is..!

My favorite luncheon, i remembered i used to cap off the tin with a tiny key-like looking thingy, following the trail around the tin and it would come off nicely.

Reports say that a banned cancer-causing antibiotic, Nitrifurans, was found in a batch of Maling luncheon meat. If you do notice, not only Maling luncheon meat can't be found, other brands of luncheon meat here seems to diminish from the shelves too. I think this causes a sounder to Singapore AVA, they seems to have imply stringent checks for other brandings too. Mulitple brands of sausages are seen in supermarkets here already instead of replacement brands of luncheon meat.


The ban inclues all canned-food products that range from pickled cabbage and preserved vegetables to canned fruit, beans, peas, bamboo shoots and mushrooms.

OMG... my favourite Mushrooms too...!


Sorry that i am a little bit slow on the news, this banned was imposed some time in Dec 2007.

清明

春分后十五天为清明, 清明是扫坟祭祖的日子。简单来说,2008 年的清明节是从 4月4日 至 4月19日,每年都会不一样。

在莫个星期六的早上,我们一起出发到婆婆家集合,唯有提公公扫坟。他公公的骨灰就寄放在光明山。一大清早,光明山就挤满了人,那里的负责人为了维持自序, 都把祭拜的地方规划好了。可是这样一来,一点民俗的感觉都没了,好像太死板板,太商业化了!

而且你一旦祭拜完就有清洁工人在一旁等候,准备帮你清理桌面好然另一批公众可用。





当你把一贯的祭品(水果、干粮或烧肉)给排好,点上香烛就可以祭拜了。不是在灵牌前拜,不知在拜些什么,也不知公公收得到吗?


拜完后就把冥钱拿到前面的火炉由工作人员替你烧。


过后才到公公的灵前拜拜,这样就结束了正个简化的扫墓仪式。


清明诗句
《清明》(唐)杜牧

清明时节雨纷纷,路上行人欲断魂。
借问酒家何处有?牧童遥指杏花村。
