Last evening (31
May), dearie met her ex -colleagues Cheryl and Tin Chua from GS for dinner at
Itacho Sushi @ ION Orchard.
So I took the
opportunity to go for a short (but intense) soccer game workout at Tiong Bahru
Park.
It was the first
week night session that I have joined and it was just a small group so the
atmosphere is a wee bit different from the usual Saturday sessions where they
were mostly packed with a lot of players.
Thank God that it
was sunny throughout the day so the ground was good.
After the game
which lasted for an hour, I took a bus down to Orchard to have my dinner and
wait for dearie.
Week night at
Orchard is nice, somehow a Christmassy vibe to it. Don’t know why…. Less busy
but still beautiful…
I have a bit of
craving for Japanese food (udon in particular) so I decided to try Isetan Lido
to see if there are anything interesting there. I chanced upon Wa Dining
clearing stock at 50% off since its near closing time so I grabbed a 3 in 1
bento set consisting of minced salmon, a piece of grilled chicken and minced
tamago on rice. It was fresh, delicious and cheap at only $3.90. After buying
my meal, I sat at the slab near the underpass to eat.
After that I
bought a chocolate Danish and Freen Tea Chocolate bun from Johann ( I first
tried Johann’s pastries when my colleagues bought to share ) so I am glad that
I can do so and let dearie try too.
I then wanted to
walk over to ION but just then, I spotted
Menmaru Japanese Udon & Ramen at The foodcourt… hmmm… there is still
some allowance in my stomach so I decided to have a 2nd round of
dinner.
However, I ordered
wrongly and got the dry instead of the soup version and the staff was not
willing to add some soup unless it’s a dollar more so I decided to just forgo
it. I also bought a fried vegetable and pumpkin to go with my udon.
It cost $9 in
total (udon $6, fried vege $2, fried pumpkin $1) . Reasonable and I finally
satisfied my craving somehow.
I walked over to
ION and while looking at the Mall Directory and midway as I was keying in
“Itacho Sush…” dearie and her friends were already standing behind me. What a
coincidence…
