Dimsum, Toy Story 3 and Pepper Lunch

Date: Monday, June 28, 2010 Categories: dining out, movies

Sunday, I met up with Will, Parissa and Mike (who has just came back from his business trip to Australia) for dimsum at Chinatown, at a place called Tak Po on smith street.

We ordered so much food! what’s pictured above isn’t even half of what we ordered. the food had to come in phases because we sat at this small table that could barely fit the four of us. anyway, my favorite has got to be the fragrant rice (the two brownish rice on top) and the century egg porridge (at the bottom). I can eat that rice ANYTIME!

After the whole feast, we sat around digesting and finally got up and got on the MRT to Dhoby Gaut to catch Toy Story 3. The next viewing isn’t until a couple hours later, so we wandered around the mall for a bit. Mike and I found an arcade to play Rock Band, so we did that for an hour while Will and Parissa explored the mall some more.

Toy Story 3 was highly entertaining. I think it’s one of the few movies that didn’t jump the ship even after its second installments like many movies did (Shrek, The Matrix, Rush Hour… Air Bud..? ok I’m running out of examples here). I laughed so hard at so many moments of the movie that my stomach was seriously hurting, in a good way.

After the movie we made our way to Orchard and had dinner at Pepper Lunch, where they give you raw ingredients on a very hot teppanyaki plate and you’re supposed to “cook” it yourself (aka push everything around until it’s cooked and add the sauce of choice)

I had the beef pepper rice with a side of mashed potatoes. Will order the beef again (yummmmmers!), but no more mashed potatoes. it had a weird sticky consistency and didn’t even TASTE like potatoes :x
