The reason why this blog is created is because Multiply.com is shutting down & all posts will be removed. Some posts here are back-dated from Aug 2004 - Aug 2012! I'm just doing a screen-shot & re-posting slowly cos it ain't easy to import every single photo. Therefore, only thumbnails are available for viewing, which also explains the white background & the little note at the end.

The Oyster Bank | Carol's Birthday

Le bff's birthday & cos both Carol & Charlene prefers seafood, I narrow down a few Oysters place for her to choose from & Carol ended up choosing The Oyster Bank, Funan.
I managed to secure a reservation at Funan outlet for 3 pax at 6pmThe bar & the huge-ass bottle of tabascoStarting the dinner with some alcoholic drink so that we can get oysters at $2 each (up to 6pc per drink). I had Yuzu Cloud, which is very refreshingChrysanthemum Osmanthus GinAntidote No.5This is round one of our dinner situation3 alcoholic drink = 18 super fresh naked oysters at $2 each during the shucking hours!
*Shucking hours | Mon-Fri 5pm-8pm & Sat/Sun All Day!Salmon Sashimi; fresh & very thick slice!Prawn cocktail; nothing impressive 😂Hokkaido Scallop Ceviche; scallop is fresh but the dressing is a little too bland.Mentaiko Fries is the bomb, although we seriously feel it would be better if they put in a bit more sauce!
We were pleasantly surprised that complimentary sake was being served when there's a birthday celebration!Happy Birthday, Carol!
We added on more items like Beef TatakiMore oysters but this time we went for the flavored ones namely Kimchi Cucumber, Ginger Lime, Grapefruit Ponzu, Classic Mignonette & Tozazu KombuBaked Mentaiko Scallops
More drinks! I had Pop Goes the Weasel while Carol had beerSince we ordered 2 more drinks, we ordered 12 more naked oysters & also another portion of Baked Mentaiko Scallop cos it was so good!
Food was delish & service was great! Super enjoyable meal & we hope to be back soon!

Milkfrost Shops | Ooppa Optical - Presbyopia Glasses

Finally collected my Presbyopia Glasses that was being delivered to Midas's place on 31/12/23. 
Went JB on my birthday on 13/12/23 and we went to prescribe presbyopia glasses with progressive lens at Ooppa Optical (City Square Mall) cos yes, it's a relatively cheaper due to the exchange rate.Thus, I got myself 2 pairs!They also throw in an extra casing & the screwdriver & extra nose pad if in any case that there is a need to replace the nose padFirst pair is from (0 to +1.75)Metal frame with Hoya lensReason for (0 to +1.75) power is due to me wearing contact lens due to short sightedness. Cos with contact lens, I can see things that's far but not near. With this, I can see both far & near. Thus, this pair is mainly for work or when I'm reading food menu when I'm outSecond pair of from (-3.75 to +1.75)Plastic frame & Hoya lensReason for (-3.75 to +1.75) is also due to short sightedness. As I don't wear contact lens at home, I can see what's near but can't see what's far! Thus, with this pair, i can see both far & near. No need to keep removing my home glasses to see things that's near & put on when I wanna see anything that's far.
2nd pair of lens is at 50% off (same power), but the guys at Ooppa kindly extend the offer to me even though my 2pair was of different power due to my special case. They're also having a promotion of one-for-one on frames.

I can't really remember the breakdown of the cost, but I paid $504 for 2 pairs of presbyopia glasses with Hoya progressive lens + 4 boxes (15 days/ box) of daily disposable colored lens while I paid S$398 for 1 pair of presbyopia glasses with normal progressive lens in 2022 at Owndays
As Carol also prescribed 2 pairs & got it delivered to Midas's place, I also pick it up for her at the same time.
