Last night was the last time we could go out in groups of more than two. Spent it with my Saint Andrews buddies in classic mama fashion: scotch followed by mutton curry (and lamb). Good times, good times
For our final meal out before Singapore's new lockdown lite, Ling and I tried a funky Hainanese joint. Pork chops, Curry Rice, Kaya Toast. Food is OK. I do really like the decor, mood, cheery staff.
The last time I met Sherwin Siregar, many years ago, he was CEO of Atlas Hifi (of Bose fame). Over the past few years he has shifted from running a family business to, for the first time in his life, working at an MNC.
I felt a bit sad seeing this row of trees cut down outside our apartment block. Road widening to accommodate all the people who will soon be moving to the coolest neighbourhood in SG.
Ling took a day off so we went on a "four river" kayak around Pulau Ubin. Was a lot of fun. I never knew that there is a long perimeter fence on the northern edge, built in 2003, facing Malaysia, so that people cannot get in or out. Donald Trump would be proud.
Delicious nasi ambeng from Yishun today. In particular liked the begedil (potato cutlet), the paru (cow lungs), the fried salted fish and the "sambal gila" (crazy hot chilli). Should have asked for more serunding (coconut "floss") on top.
