Random, As Usual
Gastric:
I drank some sour watercress soup last night. Alarm bells should have gone off when it tasted citrus-y but I just put it down to strange soup stock. Like they say, got to learn to listen to your gut (All pun intended). Woke up with teeth grinding gastric. 5am dose of Buscopan and 2 heaped tablespoonfuls of Mylanta. Acid buffer and anti spasm should do the trick (I hope!). The joys of self medicating. Monday and no work. yay.
Straits Kitchen at the Hyatt:
Gourmet Hawker fare. Wasn't too keen when mom mentioned it a few months ago. Thought it was just atas local fare for the ang mos. I eat my words. Dinner there with mom and dad was divine. They serve up the best Chilli Crabs, Buddah Jump Over the Wall, Grilled mushroom northern indian styleee, ice kachang, pineapple tarts, roast duck, chicken rice, kueh lapis, oneh oneh, it was beautiful. It's hawker fare minus the grease, minus the MSG and made with a whole lot of gourmet chef love. A Cool $38+++ (I think!) for buffet dinner and if you have the hyatt card, even better. 50% of for 2, 33% off for groups of 3 and %25 off for groups of 4.
Indie Rock, Post Rock and other strange music:
Mogwai is coming to Singapore. We have all been too damn lucky! Bands I thought I'll never ever see. Mogwai is coming.
Un Chien Andalou:
A surrealist short film by Luis Bunuel and Salvador Dali made in 1928. 17 minutes of surrealistic visual imagery, I have deduced that Surrelism is nonsense but very fascinating. My vacuous little mind never saw beyond the surface of the film. Later in an interview with Luis Bunuel's son, said that surrealism is not meant to be interpretated. It is the vision of dreams. Ah! all these Avant-Garde films! Enjoyable nontheless.
That's all
