16.06.2012 - Riders Cafe + ECP

16th June 2012

I had been reading a lot about Riders Cafe located at Bukit Timah Road. I tried to make a reservation the previous Saturday but due to D's nephew full month, we had to cancel it. This time round i made another reservation at 1.15pm. It is advise to make a reservation before making your way down, it was full house when we reached and need to wait for awhile for them to prepare the table for us. It is good to go down early, as the weather was too humid the day. 

Steak Frites of Angus Rib-Eye, Café de Paris Butter & Seasoned Fries

Blackstone Benedict with Bacon & Tomatoes, Poached Eggs & Hollandaise on rustic Sourdough

Riders Burger with Rocket, Brie, Relish, Bacon & Seasoned Fries

 

 'The Usual' with Eggs, Back Bacon, Breakfast Banger, Mushrooms, Tomato & Sourdough

Personally, i would prefer the brunch set as compare to the main. In my opinion, the beef is not as tasty too. The waitress said that the riders burger is one of the dish that most people ordered. Initially i wanted Smoked Salmon & Creamed Eggs, Avocado on Turkish Pide but they do not have it. 

It is an interesting dinning place, well i did not manage to see any horses walking around :C due to the super hot and sunny weather. 

 We headed to East Coast Parking for cycling, requested by my sis. I hate the sun, i hate how crowded it is in a weekend but promised the sister to accompany her. We rented a bike, a not so good but still can cycle, 3 hours for $11. We had a few stop over point in between to rest and hydrate ourselves, not much picture. 

After the tiring cycling, we headed back to the west for a simple dinner at Bukit Batok. My all time favourite, sambal fried rice and prawn paste chicken wings.

This is our first time trying new dishes, since we have more people, the beancurb and the sambal kang kong.The hawker center was crowded due to Father's Day.

We ended the night early. We were too tired and sticky to do anything else. 

Time flies, 1 month of holiday had flew past. Examination results are releasing tomorrow, *Cross Fingers and toes*, another 7 working days to my last day and 2 more weeks to BKK! 

After bkk, it will be a brand new chapter of life and it means school start too. I am still waiting to sign my appointment of lease, when will the letter come :C

28^th May 2010; Sunny day

D and I decided to have a cycling session before I start on my new job. We had brunch at Bedok Interchange and we took bus into East Coast.

Rented a bike for 3 hours and I forgot how much was it, half way through the 3 hours I’m already burnt. Took some picture, apparently the river was being polluted by the oil spill so the whole river stink. Nevertheless, the weather was good and all the pictures taken look nice without much editing.

Returned our bike after that, washed up in Mcd and off we took bus to clement for dinner. On the way, we passed by Pinnacle@Duxton. The whole building made D and I go “WOW!” Upon reaching clement, we settled down at Shin Tokyo for dinner and we feel cheated. We craved for sushi, but the sushi look “fake sushi” to us.

Headed to Boon Lay, meet up with HK, Kennard, WeePeng, Laurence and Timo for Jash Chua’s Birthday Bash and home sweet after that.

An unforgettable event happened but I’m too lazy to elaborate on it.
