Keong's wedding

 Smithankyou     4/25/2018 10:57:00 AM     Friends, keong, wedding     No comments   


This is my friend Keong and I. It was his wedding some weeks ago. (Or was it days? I can't remember. Life has been on the fast lane these days. Yes, it's already April! WTF!) Keong and I have been friends for a long time. Since I was 17? Keong and I used to be really tight despite the lack of common interests. He plays tennis (high ses sport) while I play basketball. He plays his FPS on his computer while I play mine on my Playstation 2,3,4 (That's how long we've known each other) but despite that, we know we are the type of friends who will always have each other's back. He was there when I needed him to help me for my wedding, for my brother's funeral, in fact everything. We used to do so many things together. And oh, we do have a common interest. MAMBO! It's funny how Keong is so into mambo as he is never one of those clubbing, hitting on girls, or drinking kinda person. He just like the whole old skool arm dancing thing. Me? I like all the things that I mentioned that he doesn't like. Ahhh. We complete each other that way I guess.



Of course, things haven't always been like this. We did not exactly start our friendship off on the right foot. We were classmates in polytechnic and I didn't like him because he was too casual. He didn't like me because well, I'm too much of an asshole and rowdy. Things changed quickly, we became friends we still have our difference. There were times he pissed me off or I offended him but at the end of the day we are still friends despite drifting apart after both of us having our own career and me having my son. That little thing takes up a lot of time and energy trust me.



We used to spend so much time together that I know his friends and he knows mine. In fact we even knows each other's parents pretty well.

I'm not a big wedding guy, Keong didn't have the most exciting wedding but I'm truly happy for them. I'm really happy that he's finally married. In fact I was just happy he got a girlfriend back then. hahaha.

I felt almost like a proud father the other day at the wedding. I have tried my best to get him hitched over time, helping him get gifts for girls, telling him what to wear, where to go, what to say and all but I guess I'm not exactly the best master. He was single for a very very long time. LOL.



Hope you like the pictures Keong! Happy wedding! :D

Everything with Fries

 Smithankyou     12/14/2009 11:23:00 AM     dora, Food Review, fries, keong     1 comment   
WTF ! I actually done blogging this post and i dunno what happen the post was left with half when publish. I have to like retype the whole thing again.. OMG

This post is actually meant for SGFoodieClub but for some reason the dashboard is down. Thus I am blogging at my own blog.

My buddy has got something new to intro once again.I actually blame him for all the weight gain. He is the man who introduced me - Ashtons, Popeye Chicken, Udders, Waffle Town, Gelare Tuesday and many more which I can't recall. Anyway, this time round "Everything with Fries !"



The Man I Blame ! He is really the man, always intro good food and free transport summore ! And his intro is never wrong ! but he is the skinny one while i am the fat one. !*@&%!&@



The "I see nothing from far" signage.





I really like their design, very simple, clear and direct.



The shop





The Dessert.

So the thing about 'Everything with Fries' as the name suggest, everything with fries. So how do we go about doing it ?

1st -




Next -



For the Fries you can actually have it in many different ways.

Original
Curry
salt and vinegar
sour cream and onion
garlic and herbs.

It comes in shoestring and straight cut too !

P.S : Shoestring is the skinny one.

And lastly -



So the offering is actually pretty wide range.



The Highly Recommended "One Egg Soup" - a very interesting fried egg on a cream of chicken soup. Taste is very rich but I felt the soup is too little.



My h00t - Pork Cutlet Sandwich with Sour Cream and Onion Fries and Coleslaws - $8.90 only ! The Fries is really nice but the sandwich is just normal IMO.The bread is a little dry for me but Ah Dum and Keong felt it's tasty in a way.



This is the devil ! Nutella Tart ! Super rich in taste and A MUST TRY ! $4.90 Only !



Nutella Crepe, not as rich as the tart but it taste realllly goood too ! It's like popian skin with nutella.$5.90 = P



Nutella Milkeshake ! very very nice ! but i prefer vanilla milkshake , I guess it's a me thing. price - forget liao ! = P

We had more Nutella in a night than in a year man !



We had a happy fries day ! you should check it out too !




Where is it : 458 Joo Chiat Road

Tel : 6345 5034

Smith Says :

Food : Not too bad, value for money but can be better !

Dessert : One of the best in the business I must say !

Experience : yes ! I will confirm visit there again to try all the different fries ! And their staff are all very polite too !

Smith Leong - Talking Since 1986 ( I guess ). I have been a Emcee for several events like family day - telematches, road show, voice over but this is the time round my dear friend entrust me with their big day.

I actually did once back then for my very own brother but I was given a script and I was really nervous and was very very green back then. I gave myself a 2/10.

An Kian and Pandora tie the knot on this beautiful Sunday afternoon at Singapore Marriott Hotel on 18th October. Mr.Smith was not just the wedding planner but also the wedding host.

It's no convention ladies please raise and ladies please get seated style of wedding, there was games and laughter for all.

Highlights of the event. ( Credits : 1st journal )

How Long Can I Stand ??

 Smithankyou     10/22/2009 01:04:00 PM     cafe cartel, camwhore, canon ixus 100, christie, dora, Food Review, GPGT, junjun, keong, liping, outing, standingsushi     1 comment   
Got a quickie lunch and uploaded yesterday's picture, and now it's time for my account on standing sushi ! !

I first came across on Standing Sushi on a mag - 8 days if my memory didn't fail me and the 1st impress i had was oh whatever, it's just another sushi shop. What change my mind to give it a try was actually because of twitter, I saw quite a handful of the peeps twitting about the sushibar and not only that, the sushi bar was twitting too ! They were pretty prompt on all the twit and to me - a business which uses social media is interesting enough for me to give it a try ! Moreover I saw the conversation between nadnut and daintyflair on the UOB card 1 for 1, so what the hell was I waiting for ~~

But then after that I realize that I made a mistake on the 1 for 1, it's not for ala carte, it's only for the "chef recommendation" which is a 8 course meal thing, it is sort of like supper club where you just pay this amount of money and the chef will do up some stuff according to your preference. And you will need to call in 1-2 days before hand for them to get ready your menu !



Here I am @ OUB Centre, full of memories, done a few events for them, roving, fashion show, campaigns.. BLAH ~ Emotionally attached to all my client.. = P



The bar when it was empty..And yes, they "serve" chairs during dinner, after along day at work, take a break, take a seat.



Tweeted about being there, kenna niao by @shawnlimtianjun = X



The on wall menu, and the 2 early bird's reflection..



The happy pple !











and christie didn't wanna pose for me.. but oh well.. it's not over till it's over.. = X

And of course.. the food !! I got a feeling i ate more fish last nite den i would have eaten in the whole month..



My 1st order before the rest arrive.. 1 word - FRESH ! it feels so damm different from those prepacked when the seaweed and rice turns sticky.. the salmon skin was damm crispy !



Recommendation by the hot waitress which i felt she look like Debbie wong.. she kept asking all of our name but nv self intro.. = X



salmon roll !! this is those roll where u can really feel the presence of the fish being in the roll..



this is actually my 2nd plate of sashimi, the 1st plate disappear before i could take pictures.. it's thick, it's fresh, it's those sashimi where u put in ur mouth and u can feel the meaning of happiness ~~

My conclusion about this place :

Good ambiance, good concept, good food, nice pple, good twitter account(well managed) but abit too steep for poor worker like me ! But it's really value for money ! There is no such things as cheap and very good ! hahaha..

Total Damage for the above + 2 drinks : $43.55 !

Smith Says :





We did not want to call it a day that early since it has been some time since we last hang out, we pick a place to hang around and chat and Cafe Cartel was the choice since it have the 50% off cakes after 9pm!

To our disappointment, there were no nice cakes left. We ended up on milk shake coffee and of course...





Vanilla milkshake, my loveee~~





And this is what happen when u dun pose for my picture, I snap it myself !





Camwhore ! lolx

And.. yes.. she is my sister.. nuff said ?






A random picture which I took in the afternoon.. people shooting birds in the middle of Orchard road while the birds were showering.. = P






Mr.Smith, How long did I stand? erm no.. they actually have chairs..
