Movies & good food.. 2 of the weekly must-haves in my life.. Wahaha! :P

Watched Dragonball: Evolution (2009) on DVD early this week..

Yeah.. We had the DVD for sometime but have not watched it till this week..

We have several more DVDs at home which we have not watched too..

With the piles of DVDs we have at home, we can easily start a DVD rental business with them! ;p

Possibly more than a hundred of them!

Wahahaha! :D

Well.. Back to the movie.. I must say I was pleasantly surprised that it was very entertaining & impressive with lots of martial arts moves..

Me being a fan of the comic since I was a kid, I was impressed that the movie was based very closely to the comic novel - Dragon Ball Z..

The film also had the same anime style of fighting in Dragon Ball Z..

I enjoyed the movie very much & needless to say, am really glad the movie was directed by James Wong, produced by Stephen Chow, theme song of the movie was sung by one of my all-time favourite Japanese singer, Ayumi Hamasaki! :)

Also caught 88 minutes (2007) on Star Movies this week..

Now this is 1 movie all Al Pacino's fans should not have missed..

The veteran actor is always as good as he is.. as engaging as always..

This suspense thriller is really good & keeps you engaged, excited & guessing till the very end! :)


Ok.. now let's talk about food.. Yeah.. ;d

we checked out this restaurant - Different Taste @ 275 Thomson Road #01-04 Novena Ville on Sunday evening..

They have 4 outlets in Singapore & this outlet we visited in Novena Ville was opened on the 19th of May 2010..

This outlet was relocated from Ten Mile Junction..

Their restaurant serves really tasty dishes & at very reasonable "zhi char" prices too! No service charge & no GST too!

Really a must-try! :)

Check out more details at their website: http://www.differenttaste.com/

Another place which one must also try their food is Rabbit Brand Seafood Restaurant..

I believe lots of people know about this restaurant..

They have 3 outlets.. 1 in Lucky Plaza, Orchard Road, 2nd outlet at Circular Road, & another at Joo Chiat Road..

Together with 2 of my close friends - Vivien & Vincent, we visited their outlet at Lucky Plaza, Orchard Road, on Wednesday afternoon.. :)

It was my 2nd or 3rd time there..

We had 1 of their set lunches which consisted of Hor Fun/Udon, Shark's Fin soup & White Fungus Sweet Soup.. :p [an infinite apologies to the poor sharks here! :(]

I must add that I hardly eat Shark's Fin though.. :p


My only consolation is.. at least with me eating Shark's Fin that day, you poor sharks didn't die in vain.. :p

Most of the set lunches (consisting of different dishes) only costs $5.50 each! :)

The food there was cheap & good! :)
