Do What You Must

Plenty of things to do and to be done. Coming up is SWAT for my very own application. What a boring phase in an SDLC. But too bad, what's gotta be done gotta be done. And also, gave the signal. It's time to do the action!

Just back from dinner with ex-colleague Kah Wai, Kong Cheow and also Wing Kin and Yew Hwee. We ate at Pasta de Waraku @ Marina Square. I didn't know there existed a Pasta de Waraku at Marina Square, but only ate at the other Waraku restaurant. I FINALLY got to eat at this restaurant. It's been several attempts to eat at this popular restaurant, but I NEVER get to eat there. Everytime the queues were like neverending. However we got a table pretty quickly. Must be because it's a weekday and this Waraku is pretty new. I ordered a Bolognese Spaghetti with Gratin set @ $16.80. Very worth it. DON'T ever order just the pasta alone. Kong Cheow was the only one who ordered the pasta alone and we were freaked out by the difference in just an additional $4. We get extra gratin, which was baked cheese and prawns with pasta. Tastes pretty good. We also get a small cup of corn soup, as well as a small bowl of salad. Definitely worth buying the set meal instead. I also ordered an Iced Cocoa @ $3.80. Not too bad too. We all shared a very interesting Bacon & Kimchee Pizza @ $12.80. It's not very filling cos it's just a thin crust with a bit of cheese and bacon and kimchi. But it's rather unique though. Not your everyday Pizza Hut type of pizza. Overall I think the price is justifiable for its presentation and taste. The Japanese always never fail to come up with good-looking and good-tasting food.

We chatted over dinner, until about 10pm, before we left for home. This outing was suggested by Kah Wai, probably because this time he is REALLY going to Germany. For the last two dinner outings, his news of his going to Germany was to become just fables. Let's hope this time round he really touches German soil for good. Wahaha!

Anyway here's a very cute video for those Patapon fans out there. Yat: You should retry this game. Got me hooked for quite a long time ahahha. PATA-PATA-PATA-PON, PON-PON-PATA-PON!
