Old Chang Kee Singapore

ABBEY: Fish balls, anyone? When I was a kid I used to buy fish balls from a pushcart that roves around our neighborhood every afternoon. I was delighted to eat fish balls from Old Chang Kee, reminiscing my childhood days. The shop also offers chicken nuggets, puffs or empanada, fried crab claw, yam kate, and chicken wings. Though a bit expensive compared to home-cooking, its better than going to the kitchen and do the stuff sometimes.

WILL: Hmmm. Chat's fave knickknack. Well, i can't blame her. Ha! the fish ball, kung sa atin puro tinik at harina, dito fish na fiah tlga. My fave to old chang kee is the yam k8. Malayo pa lang maamoy mo n ang oils nila and in fairness, di mabaho ang oil nila. 

      So good, one stick fish ball is not enough! 

Punggol Promenade Riverside Walk

ABBEY:
When I woke up, Wilma asked me if we can go to Punggol Promenade. It was time for us to jog. The place can be reached via Punggol LRT station; alight at Riviera Station. A 5-minute walk and you'll find yourself in a very beautiful scenery. We went there Sunday, a family day. You'll find children tagged along by their parents. Toddlers in blades or bikes or sometimes they just jog. A red bridge connects the promenade and the Lorong Laus Wetland. It was a gift from nature. As you stroll, clean breeze will brush your face as if telling you that its good to relax :) A comfort room was also provided. And if you feel hungry, there are fast food chain, bar and bistro nearby. Good thing for this place is its free.

WILL: When looking to PAP's election magazine, I saw this Punggol Promenade. A look-a-like of our Roxas Blvd. :)
      So one Sunday afternoon we went their to jog off some extra fats. And we were astonished by its beauty. Many families spend their time there for a walk, jog and biking. There even group using their skates. The view is so relaxing.
      We will surely go back there. Any way its just few blocks from our flat. But if you will go there by LRT alight at riviera station and just few steps you will be there.
      After we ran, we munched at Popeyes's Louisiana. Bale wala rin ang pinagpawis. Haha. 

RSAF Open House 2011 : Our Air Force - Defending Our Skies

ABBEY: We saw the RSAF Open House ad in the lift lobby of our building. We're excited to go to the activity. But we woke up late on May 28. By the time we got to the free shuttle at Hougang Interchange it was already 11am; its the start of the air display. The queue for free ride is so long. We didn't waste our time and booked a cab. 15mins later, we're at Paya Lebar. At the gate are machines to scan your belongings and after that is the information counter. Visitors were given a brochure that serves also as a map. We also caught a glimpse of the air show. Different models of jet like the F-15SG, Chinook and Apache choppers, C130, radars, and other military weapons were exhibited. Guest can have a picture while sitting on the cockpit but you must take the long queue :) There were also flight simulators, aircraft LAN games on the open house. PR's and Singaporeans were given a chance for a free ride if their names were drawn in the raffle. Souvenirs were given away like pins, key chains, tattoos, and your very own pictures with your fave aircraft as backdrop. The sun also didn't miss the activity, good thing we put our sun blocks on.

WILL: Why we went for RSAF? Its for me to amaze myself how high their technology is. This is a free event for two days. Here they showcase their hardwares they uses to monitor the Singapore's space. 

      I enjoyed a lot their 11am air show. They have the men and women that is very approachable, very accommodating and smiles never left their faces. How i wish we can ride one of their air crafts but that chance were for Singaporeans and PRs only.
      Looking forward for 2012 open house :)
