Stop till drop

Went to imitation shopping mall today ... the plaza called A.P Plaza .... they even have a imitation Starbuck call Stud Buck ...

After a long shopping, today we had SiChuan food ... was so excited especially looking at the nearby table, their dishes are huge and smells yummy ... so we ordered our dishes .... well it was a shocked when the fish we ordered came.... it was in a HUGE bowl of OIL with lotsadry chili and pepper ... on the menu it was called 'fish in water' but the outcome is 'Fish in OIL' ... I think the best dishes of the day will be the mushroom cooked with abalon sauce and the soup ...


SHOCK ~~~ SHOCK ~~~





so chirstmas in Shanghai so not up to my expectation thou ... this is my first time having Chinese food on X-Mas dinner ... with a bowl of OIL ... But I do enjoyed my cuppa hot choco @ Starbucks .. Well, this is my first time getting addicted to Starbucks ... not for the coffee, but for the Hot Chocolateeeey ... yumm yummm ...

First impression ...

The weather is cold and windy ... one thing i realise, Shanghai folks do not wash their cars!! It's like they didn't wash it for 2 years!! all covered in dust... secondly the air condition is much worse than my trip to HK ... nevertherless, we still walk on the street like any other people ... breathing in dust !!

So the first thing I ever wanna do is to dine in @ CoCo Ichibanya!!! My all time fav curry rice back in Japan... they have outlets here in Shanghai... but their menu has been cut into half ... The spicy level is only half compared to Japan, they originally have spicy level up to 10!! Well, my last attempt in Japan was up till level 6 ... but now the max we have in Shanghai is only 5 :-( However, I still enjoyed it ... it's yummmmmy ~~~

Next, we walked towards Shanghai Tharn ...the view is awesome... AWESOME~~~ BUT that place smells horrrible, especially when you are around the plants area ~~ That place is not the same Shanghai Tharn that we saw from TVB old movies ... haha ... Then we bought tix to take the underground train to the next island to visit the Pearl Tower .. RMB 40 for one way train trip and RMB100 for the tower visit ... RMB 40 is very worth where the you can experience the lighting effects while you travels in the tunnnel ... very creative way to entertain you during the 8 mins journey to the opposite island... here's some shot ... it's a waste i didn't bring tripod ... ended up with this lousy shakey photos (T__T)'' or some photos taken with iPhone (-,-)

My journey to China ~~

So this is my very first time going abroad all alone ... sitting in the flight all alone is very lonely indeed ... but thanks to my iPhone, I've spent half of the journey playing Tap Defense.. hehe and watched Hana Yori Dango Movie ... then sleep for a while ... the food hmmm... not up to expectation thou ... :(

below is what I've noticed once i set my butt on that flight ...
