this week, forming the middle of my three-parter review of folgers gourmet selections, i would be introducing lively colombian. [...]

it was burak’s birthday yesterday and we brought him to a nice peranakan restaurant at tanjong pagar. it was my idea to check out this place, so the food had better be good! but it calls itself blue ginger. a rather cheesy name, don’t ya think? [...]

the first thing that struck me about the restaurant was how pretty everything was! [...]

i practically flew home after work. can you guess why?

season 2 of prison break is out!
