Currently Reading: Box 21





It had a sticker with something about 'Bound to please fans of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo'.

Lol, and I just had to buy it.XD

It's proving to be a page turner so far.

ポテトチップス

Can't say no to Calbee! XD



Curry is my favourite. Next to that, Hot & Spicy, and Okonomiyaki.

Greasy, Crispy, Flavourful -- Calbee.

Summer Getaway

These were photos way back from June! XD



Photo credit goes to my mom, who took these using my camera.;D




Beautiful salad, everything edible!:3










Getting pampered.


Woody and homey.


Weather is looking a little grey..

But on the other side it's very sunny.




The cabins..


I love the skylight shining through (bath area)



La plage~!



Some german kid running around.


The dining area.


Sandy walks and huts.


Another food photo. I remember having something like this in Beijing.


The beach, that's supposed to be the floating bar.


..and again.


Gourmet food in the evening.

Looks absolutely lovely.

And that was pretty much it. More photos from this trip here. ;D

Rainy Days

Random rainy day shots:







Been getting a lot of rain of late, in moderation is fine, but days on end with rain is unbearable.

-

Current thoughts (planning my next trip):
Madrid (+Segovia/+Toledo)- Sevilla - Rome - Florence;
Madrid - Berlin - Rome (+Florence?);
Madrid (+Segovia/+Toledo)- Berlin - Milan;
Madrid - Berlin - Milan - Rome;
Rome (+florence) - Madrid (++).
How to go about this....n_n; Some have very limited flight selection.. would prefer to fly in the morning....(which is why I squeezed Berlin in (24&25), but would only get 2 days max and I wouldn't want that.>_<). Hmm, also need to have more days in Spain since they will be issuing my Schengen....

Food Review :: Kenji-tei

My friend and I were here for brunch (as usual, we skipped breakfast...!)



Kenji-tei's menu, for something Japanese, their menu feels --to me, limited.



I loved the restaurant's ambience, however, and it was very well-lit.
The not-so-morning sun was hitting all the right places and a lot of gaijins were dining here as well (during the early hours, anyway).



The works they had on each table..



I had the Seafood Negi Ramen.. Spicy the way I liked it. XD



My friend had Pork in Teriyaki Sauce.



..with a tiny bowl of rice to go with it as well.



I absolutely loved my ramen, beautiful flavour, noodles were also made to perfection.



They don't call themselves Ramen house for nothing!
I only wished it had more meat in it.



My friend was contemplating whether to get some tempura, and i wanted to try the matcha cake. :3 We didnt though, ...maybe this calls for another visit. XD



We were very happy with the service, and I hope it stays that way! :D

Presentation 9/10

Comments:
Great food, wonderful ambience, I only wish they had more items on their menu! .. was also left a little hungry after my ramen...xP

Character-themed Japanese Curry

More japanese goodies I found at the local supermarket!



Character-themed curry! :D House brand's curry is quite good.



This other brand I haven't really tried...



-

I ended up not buying them... they were the last ones on the shelf... And I was a little bothered with how badly-handled the boxes were (dents/creases/and it was a little dusty).
