The Singapore Diaries (Part 1)

They're here! They're here! The gang arrived yesterday in Singapore and it's never been more fun. Papa was with them, so of course, the whole time, I was so pressured to show them a good time and importantly, good FOOD!

So I thought I would take them to a sure bet - Ah Hoi's Kitchen for the biggest crabs this side of Asia. Uh... I guess the crabs weren't as sweet as in Manila. :) But I think the lesser-crab connoisseurs enjoyed themselves.

Here are pictures of us looking cute in our crab bibs.






Kenny couldn't eat bread so we let her go first with the rice. Here is a candid picture of Wong staring hungrily... I think she wanted to eat Kenny.


Ok... so Ah Hoi's was a bit of a letdown for Papa but I've never known anyone to resist the charms of the Ritz sunday brunch buffet. So off we went on a rainy Sunday morning


And for the love of free cake, today is now officially my parents' wedding anniversary. :)


The Ritz and the gigantic balls of shark's fin have not failed me! I think that's a smile on my dad's face there after his 4th bowl. We made super sulit and stayed for 4 hours and Mama even had 2 glasses of champagne... which I think is partly to blame for her upset stomach 15 minutes later. That and her 3 oysters.

What followed next is torture our feet won't soon forget. 5 straight hours of marathon shopping to take advantage of the GREAT Singapore Sale. We found Kenny's army shorts, Yotch's 1st suit and Ahia's "Italian" shirts - at the end of which, we couldn't do anything except...


And just for fun, I'm posting this funny picture which my camera risked its life to take.
