18 JUN 2012 MON - TI9001 Gathering @Tims Restaurant


yearly TI9001 gathering... coincidentally WanYee was back from Tennessee :)
@Tims Restaurant & Cafe, Blk 95 Toa Payoh Lorong 4 #01-52 Tel: 6250 5246 [western & nepali cuisines]

i'd long wanted to try the nepali cuisines here, so suggested this place...

Soup of the day... Celery Carrot Soup...yum yum

Pakora S$6.50 [hahaha PeiLeng's 'soft-shell-crab']
this pakora rather mini and dry compared to what i had in nepal...so i reckon the dryness was due to the small pieces...those i had in nepal were at least 1x bigger and still had some moist and the vege texture...

Chicken MoMo S$8.50
the momo skin was more 'refined' than those i had in india, nepal and tibet... but the sauce rather mild, um...to me 'no kick'...

i had US Pork Rack and st had Rack of Lamb... i cut half of the pork for st and st cut half of the lamb for me... i thought the pork tasted nicer and st thought the lamb nicer... i reckon both also nice just that the portions cut off the plate were rather dry with just very little sauce...

US Pork Rack $13.80

Rack of Lamb S$19.00

Coffee

Pie

6 of us, each ordered a main, added S$3 each for the soup+bread, hot drink and dessert, 4 added S$1 each to change the hot drink to cold one... total bill S$128.70... NO 10% service charge nor 7% gst!!!
...generally good services, good food and value for money... as for the nepali cuisines i have my reservation, perhaps wait till i try their other nepali cuisines :)

lastly a group pic...

13 JUN 2012 WED - Happy Birthday RenMin @JB Neway KTV

my 3rd time having klunch @jb neway ktv... 1st, 2nd and 3rd times all the 'makan sets' different... this 3rd time 1 soft drink, 1 set lunch and 'salad, fruit, soup buffet'... 13 of us, besides the klunch, my sis bought a half kilo cake [with free bottle of mock champagne]...total bill rm145 (about s$60)

after previous experience... 'room 1...the 'projector on white screen' not sharp... the lyrics on the screen still blur when the lighting totally turned off...but can't see the wordings on the remote controller in total darkness...so rather handicap' ...this time round i told the counter girl i don't want room 1 or any 'projector room'... she gave us room 2 and assured us that is a big tv one :)

soft drink got hot/cold coffee, tea, milo or coke, 7-up with or without lemon...
my 7-up with lemon...

set lunch got yellow mee+kway teow chicken soup OR...

... thai style chicken + egg & rice OR...
... vege rice [none of us try it, so no pic]

i cut the chicken into small pieces for rachel...

the mushroom soup is our favorite, both young n older ones... n the older ones love the fruit salad with 'diluted shrimp paste' [like the rojak sauce]... noted that many fruit stalls in malaysia provide such 'diluted shrimp paste'...why singapore fruit stalls no have one :(

rachel first time sing K...she enjoyed singing reading aloud the lyrics hahaha... the older little ones could not stand her at first...until i reminded them that they did that too when they were her age lol...




happy birthday to renmin :)





the above half kilo cake and below mock champagne (sparkling white grape juice) rm42++ [before 50% discount]...






rachel loves 'a thousand years' so much...sang read aloud almost the whole song and was humming the chorus on our way back...
