Happy feet

Watched the movie Happy Feet last Sat with my darling. Not quite what I had expected, it turned out to be a movie that both adults and kids can enjoy watching as it teaches about the interference of human at the Arctic continent. The dialogues and characters are really witty and funny, that made the audience laughed quite a fair bit. Songs were nice too, they had remixes of oldies and hits from the top 40s as well. All "performed" by the penguines heehee....

We went to Crystal Jade La Mian Xiao Long Bao at the fountain of wealth for dinner. Pretty disappointing on the food cos' it doesnt taste as good as they claimed to be. Think I will just stick to the outlet at Chinatown. The xiao long bao there is the best so far that I had ever tasted. Thin succulent dumpling skin that wraps the minced meat and the meat juices that are so sweet. Once u bite into it, the juice flows and the meat practically dissolves in yr mouth. Sigh...so blissfully tasty :)

After movie, we dropped by Ritz Carlton, Chihuly lounge to chill out. That was my 2nd time there. The resident band, Louis Soliano Trio, was having a break. One of them actually recognised me and wave hi even though we have only met once, surprised :) Louis, on the drums, sang a few jazz numbers, much to my surprise cos I din expect anyone from the band to sing heehee, in fact he's really good. Melvin on piano sang a song or 2 as well. It was really relaxed and cosy nite, one of the customers even went up to play on the congo drums, I believed he must be a player himself, very good indeed.

Before we left for the nite, Louis and Bong came over for a short chat. Funnily, Louis actually cant rem when he met me and he was surprised that I was so tall that night. Well my trick is my heels haha...he's such an endearing character, like my uncle. Bong was "complaining" about his gig at Vivocity's opening with CapitalLand, said they were rubbish, felt that he's like the prostitutes working for them, weird sense of humor hahaha. Din managed to talk to Mel cos it was pretty late and he's engaged in their small talks with other customers.

Wld loved to hang out there more often as the trio is really smooth and experienced. Prefers lounge music these days. Except that the drinks and the miscellaneous like the snacks are quite pricey :(
