Lunging Lunches

It's unbelievable but it's officially over a month since I started my internship at IBN!

At least once a week, lunch would be a long-stretched affair. Compulsorily copious amount of fellowship and gossiping.

Megabites at NUS

Yes. I know it's heresy but we actually took a bus down from Biopolis to Science Fac in NUS.

Well, I'm not complaining though.

Coffee Culture at Biopolis

Surprisingly good and serves teh tarik!

Then last Thursday, to celebrate (can't find a better word... Ha) Kangwen last week, our supervisors treated us to an Indian lunch at Raj!

The cups was arranged in a way to look like a smiley.

Well. At least it's SUPPOSED to...

The curries were great though too mild to water my palate. I particularly loved the one which had a strong nutty (cashew) flavour. That said, I wouldn't recommend the Mango Lassi. It was tasted like commercial mango yoghurt drink.

Of course, after great lunches, the day would not be complete with slacking at a pantry.

Nope, it wasn't just the usual scenic pantry I posted before, but one which came with a coffee machine!

Me happily steaming my milk.

And it's big.

And if lunch was a disappointment, why not throw in more snacks!

Complete with bean bags to sleep in (or camwhore)...

Okay, enough about my internship at IBN.


On 12th June, I dined at one of the most atas place I've ever been in Singapore. (At least without the financial support of my parents...)

North Border Bar & Grill

Located at Rochester Park, opposite Biopolis, it serves American Southwest Cuisine.
While initial plans were to dine at lush One Rochester, it was unfortunately packed... On a Thursday Night!
While the website of North Border looked little clumsy (http://www.northborder.com.sg/), the food served certainly blew me away.

Lamb Chops with Mojito

From the modest-looking vegetables to the mash potatoes to the succulent medium-rare lamb to the sauce... it felt meticulously prepared with the sides complementing the main very well.
My only qualm was that the lamb could be slightly less chewy (read: fatty). Other than that, it was arguably one of the best dinners (and most expensive) I had this year.

Yet, after all the above feasting, people have commented that I looked like I've lost some weight...
Hmmm...
