Kenji Tei / J. Co / Singapore Food Republic
Today was a long day for me. Despite waking up at 1 in the afternoon, I felt like I had a full day.
I met up with Darls at 2:30 for late lunch. I haven’t seen her since her wedding last December so we spent almost 4 hours catching up on stuff. She’s planning on going home to Cebu for good so I was envious that she could afford to do so. We had lunch at Kenji Tei in Greenbelt 5, followed by coffee at J Co.
The Miso Buttered Corn Ramen was to die for. Chicken Teriyaki was also really good! Thanks to Darls for the treat, I didn’t expect it! π
It was raining so I wanted a hot drink after lunch. I ordered a Latte at J. Co. This was my first time to order coffee here so I was pleasantly surprised to find out that it comes with a free glazed doughnut. I was full but I had space for this one.
We attended mass at 6PM. Β I’m not exactly a devout Catholic and I haven’t been to a mass in three months I think. I dropped Darls home afterwards.
On the way back though, Mhealler called me because he wanted to eat good food for dinner. We invited Darls again (picked her up at her place) since he hasn’t seen her since December as well, then headed to Singapore Food Republic in the Fort. The place was nice! It was very cozy. Food was also good albeit a little pricy. We ended up spending almost 2,000 pesos and there were only 3 of us.
I recommend the Prawn Lemak, and the Salt and Pepper Spareribs. The salad above was good, but it was the most expensive one at 380 pesos. I also ordered a glass of cold Tea Tarik, which brought me back to the time I first visited Singapore. We also ended dinner with cinnamon muffin for dessert.
After stuffing ourselves, we went to CenterStage to sing karaoke for an hour. On Sundays, CenterStage has 50% discount on room rates – so we sang to our hearts content for an hour, for only 147 pesos, including service charge. Not bad at all! At around 11:50 PM, I drove them home before joining another set of friends.
It’s ‘s birthday so I headed back to the Fort to join the salubong. They were drinking at Draft, but the place was already closing when I got there. I finished up what was left of their beer because the bar was already closed.
After around 30 minutes of chatting and laughing at other people’s selfies, we greeted Set once again and finally headed home.
I spent the next 3 hours on my PC, fixing up LJ, updating my other blogs (check the links on the sidebar), and reminiscing on Facebook among others. Haha.
Now I’m just waiting for sleep to come over me. I have a 2PM meeting later so I need to be up by 11. Good luck to me!
P.S. I’m posting this using the LJ mobile app for iPhone. It’s very convenient! I hope this turns out well on the web.
