Half day off on Friday was a blessing for many of us, since we will be chionging in an exercise on Monday. I took the opportunity to catch up with the church people. After labouriously planning for the dinner at Thomson Road, we, Plin, Esther, Zh and mua set off together, meeting Eil at Thomson Plaza at 7pm. It was nostalgic to be back at Thomson Rd. My history with it dates back when I was 5 and Thomson Plaza was called "Yohan". I was learning piano at Yamaha and had been at it for many years. Still, even after my years a piano veteran, my family would often visit the shopping centre for the food, groceries and the haircut. Currently, Thomson Plaza was having a face-lift as it is widening the unloading and loading bay and at the same time putting up the decos for the coming Christmas.
After walking around the oh so familiar plaza, we ended up walking along Thomson Road in search of authentic food. There were a whole variety of food. There is chicken rice, dim sum, noodles, Western meals etc. Its amazing while Thomson Plaza has retained most of its shops over the years, Thomson Road has not. It came as a surprise when I have seen places I have never seen before. We ended up at Miss Clarity Cafe, a cutsy restaurant. Its bright colourful walls, girly prints and pink plastic cups were screaming for attention. It was quite a girly place, but a comfortable place for the girls in my group to warm up to.
The portion was small and nothing quite fantastic. We had a quick dinner before departing for our dessert at Baker's Story. If Miss Clarity Cafe was new in Thomson Road, Baker's Story is secluded, hidden deeper at SinMing with a tall hedge hiding it. Nevertheless, the quiet surrounding gives a sense of security to the customers patronising the stall; it was our little quite corner where we had the whole table to ourselves. Plin and Esther were new to the dessert shop. Eil, zh and I, on the other hand, were a little more lao jiao, but in the name of adventurous spirit, we decided to try other cakes. We had an apple crumble, White Chocolate Cheesecake, Lemon something something cake and their signature dish, the Cheesecake Brownie. 2 words which describes this cake; Simply Delicious.
It was a great night till the very end. Had a great time with the church peeps and as the break from the Friday Bible Studies comes to an end, I have not regretted every occasion we have spent together. Firstly, the outing with Esther and Plin at Taka Mall. Secondly, the movie outing with Plin watching Stardust and lastly, this dinner. And although I'm not entirely looking forward to next Friday's guard duty, I think there will be a time when all good things has got to come to an end and its a matter of how one reflects upon it.
To end this post, I represent a Youtube link Fel has sent to me the other day. Ultimately funny, and dont take some of the jobs too seriously.. Enjoy!
