Eye Contact

My dog will retreat to one corner when he feels that I'm engrossed in other activities and not paying attention to him. From there, he will be constantly looking over to check if I have realised he's neglected. Oh what a baby.... Well it always work and I will feel so bad and go bring him into my arms. Those eyes, are the same eyes that met mine and melted my heart when I first saw him at the pet shop when he was only 2 months old.

Check out the colour version on his blog.

Handburger

Went to try the Handburger outlet at Raffles City after reading about it in the papers. Took the afternoon sampler of 2 mini burgers, the original and bleu cheese beef, and well was a little disappointed as the beef patties were a little dry for me. Taste-wise they were quite refreshing though as one had something like blueberry jam while the other came with a slice of peach. Had a cup of some champagne tea to go along (although it was served in a coffee cup) which was quite fragrant. Price on the whole was on the high side but perhaps I would go back and try their duck burger, which is supposed to be their signature burger, next time again.

My Christmas Tree

Here's a tribute to my own Christmas tree at home. I actually like it better than some of those put up at the malls this year ;)

Wonderland on Top of Orchard Central

The rooftop garden on Orchard Central is quite a work of genius. Besides flora and water landscaping, the designer had also strategically placed this set of colourful cartoony characters on the second top level, so that one can admire them against the city buildings from the top level. Quite a surreal feeling like a out-of-this-world wonderland in Orchard.

Orchid @ Central

The rooftop garden at Orchard Central is a pleasant place to enjoy a bird's eye view of the street. Saw this beautiful flower on my second visit there today. Looked like some species of orchid I supposed?

Ootoya @ Orchard Central

Had Japanese dinner this evening at Ootoya and was really impressed with the quality of food there. The grilled pork was my favourite. Was impressed that their rice with scallop even came in a wooden container on a burner. Even their green tea tasted good. And price was rather reasonable.

Visual Art - Paper Bears

The underground walkway leading to the Esplanade always has some interesting visual art on display. The current one is on paper bears, displayed on swings, strings, platforms and even with colourful gummi bears. I particularly liked these 2 that were simpler and the lightings also helped to cast beautiful shadows to accentuate them.
