About Singapore Happy New Year!- dudunginside.blogspot.com

Today is the last day of 2016. I wish all readers great health, happiness and wealth ahead. Happy 2017 New Year.

This year is significant as I finally tendered resignation letter. Some people are surprised that I resigned from my high paying job when Singapore's economy is so gloomy. But I've been working hard for the past 12 years so I have a bit of saving. Its time for me to do something that I always wanted to do. I hope my investment will grow next year then I can go overseas for study. If not, I can self-study. I intend to give myself one year break. Next year, I'll just travel, read books that I brought and just enjoy the long holiday. Yes. It's time to pamper myself.

Happy New Year 2017!

About Singapore Feng Shui Talk 2017 by Grand Master Raymond Lo- dudunginside.blogspot.com

I just signed up for Feng Shui Talk 2017 by renowned Grand Master Raymond Lo from Hong Kong. Its the first time I sign up for Feng shui talk. Since next year I'm very free, I'm going to spend my free time to enhance my knowledge on finance, economics and also Bazi. But then Grand Master Raymond Lo's course is very expensive. For 3 days course, it costs $1200.00. I think I just buy his book to read. Anyway, I hope there is no bird-flu virus spread in Hong Kong as I already purchased air ticket to Hong Kong in March next year. 

I spent $18.50 to attend his 2-hour talk but then there is a free goodie bag and buffet dinner. So I think, its still worth it. If you are interested, you can also sign up via Sistic.

About Singapore Christmas Theme at Flower Dome Gardens by the Bay- dudunginside.blogspot.com

This Thursday, I went to Gardens by the Bay to see this year Christmas flower theme. Since I have the annual pass, I don't have to pay entry fees. If you love to see flowers and plants like I do, I highly recommend Gardens by the Bay annual pass as its cheaper this way. Also every few months, they will change the flower dome theme and we get to see different flowers from different countries. This year, I already saw beautiful flowers from China for the Chinese New Year theme, tulips from Turkey, blushing bride flowers from Africa and now Christmas trees from USA. 

 As I was walking to Flower Dome from Bayfront MRT, I saw this picturesque view Super tree and pond.

 Dancer inside the globe. 

 I love these beautiful succulent plants that look like flowers. 

 Baobab trees from Australia and Africa

 Cactus

Miniature cacti and succulent plants.

 This year Christmas decoration.

 I saw these yellow flowers blooming for the first time or did I miss it? Anyway I had a dream where I saw blooming yellow flowers when I opened the door.

 Lovely flower!

 Nutcracker soldiers seem very popular this year. I saw them in Australia christmas decoration too,

About Singapore My Lunch for Today at Imperial Treasure Restaurant Yi Dian Xin- dudunginside.blogspot.com

I really love the cute dim sum, the porcupine bun so today I went back to Imperial Treasure restaurant at Raffles City shopping mall for my lunch today. I had prawn dumpling noodle dry, and some of my favourite dim sum like baked bbq pork pastry. I spent about $25 today as the restaurant also include 10% service charge and 7% GST. If you love dim sum, I highly recommend Imperial Treasure restaurant Yi Dian Xin. 

 At $9.30 its quite expensive but then this is a restaurant in downtown so no choice.

 Shrimp wanton noodle dry at $9.30.

 Deep fried porpupine with red bean paste $4.20

 Baked BBQ pork pastry. Really delicious. $3.40.

Stuffed prawn in crispy wrap with wasabi ($4.80)

I like Popeyes fried chicken. They are crispy and tender and their chicken looks fresher. Actually I like KFC but I notice dark chicken flesh so I was put off by it and  now rarely eat KFC. Early this month, I had popeyes fried chicken with my cousins at Orchard Road and we were happy with the delicious meal. 

 Cajun fried chicken and their signature biscuits.

 Cheesy poppers.

Seafood and fries

Today I brought wanton noodles and roast chicken at Tampines Central community centre to share with my mum. The wanton noodle is very springy smooth and drenched in very tasty sauce and the roast pork is flavorful and tender. The roast chicken is also very tender and I love the tasty rice. I highly recommend as it is very cheap and tasty. A bowl of wanton noodle costs only $3.30.

 My current favourite wanton noodle ($3.30) is at Tampines Central Community centre food court.

 I also like their roast chicken! It is cheap at $3.30 and delicious.

 It taste better with garlic chili! Yummy!

I finally found the best dim sum restaurant that meets my budget and high expectation for quality and delicious dim sum at Imperial Treasures Yi Dian Xin restaurant! Recently I had a sumptuous lunch at Raffles City shopping mall Imperial Treasure Yi Dian Xin.
