First day of study week, which marked the final day of letting loose with the interns:

Let the girl power unite!





Till after the exams, after which I'll be leaving for my business study trip right after my last paper! Exclusive visits to prominent companies, good food and shopping awaits :) Despite everything, I hope for the trip to be a good one!

A lil' Chinatown adventure

Due to close proximity, Serangoon Gardens has been one of my frequent hangouts. Gotta love that place for Astons, Frolick and Dessert Bowl (for its Durian Mousse!). There's also Chompchomp for good hawker food, but personally I think it is overrated with insufficient space and marked-up prices. Why not head to Chinatown, for the same, if not more variety of local delights, and at more affordable prices?

So on a Monday evening, we headed down for a lil Chinatown adventure:


The xiaolongbaos that I craved everytime during my internship days! Made and steamed only upon ordering. I still remember the interns used to leave slightly earlier before lunchtime just to walk the further distance and queue for them before the lunchtime crowd.




One table of food emptied by us

We were supposed to end our food galore with yummy traditional dessert but my sense of direction really failed me - I could only remember the route if we were to walk from my workplace. We were so close yet we just couldn't find any dessert shop, had to settle for Nectarie @ Clarke Quay but all was still good!

Another round after exams? :)
