yesterday zac and i spent the afternoon and evening at orchard. went to lucky plaza for lunch, in search of something cheap (so we can indulge in more ex food for dinner). so we saw this little coffe shop on the 2nd or 3rd floor, can't really remember. we saw $3 prawn noodle soup. well, it's pretty rare to find $3 food in town so we decided to eat that. when the noodle came, i counted: 5 prawns!!! wow. usually prawn mee soup doesn't even contain 2 prawns. usually they give 3 half-prawns, which is only 1.5 prawns. yea and it's about $2.50 or $3 bucks. but here, i have 5 whole-prawns! and they're slightly bigger than the normal ones. yum yum! so happy. i love prawns.

for dinner we ate at this jap restaurant at the basement of The Cathay. They have a really unique way of ordering your food. Instead of asking the waiter to take down your orders, you go around the restaurant, picking up ice-cream sticks that have the food name on it, put them all in a cup at your table, then the waiter will pick up the sticks and there u have your orders! and the waiters will pick the sticks up at your table automatically when they walk pass and see them. you don't have to say, "excuse me, my orders are here.", or try to get their attention. the staff is good and fast. they zip around, walking damn fast. haha. and the best part: SUSHI 99CENTS a plate!!!!! great food, service and price.
