I love my PDA phone more and more. Took alot of clips and photos with it when we went out today. We went to Suntec with mom and the 2 little gremblins. They had a very early nap, so we were able to get out abit earlier, around 3+ . Mom need to collect her $20 voucher given by UOB so we went down, determined to get the voucher and use it today!
At Suntec basement, we saw this marvellous aquarium that features coral fishes and corals. It's real cool that 3 TVs are actually inside the tank. I do not know how they do it, but it looks good.(check out below).
TV? in the tank?
The kids were so excited over the fishes, they were saying nemo here, dory there. Actually there are alot of "nemos" and "dories". They are coral fishes arn't they? duh. Still we got to act enthusiatic. (never deaden the child's curiosity and enthusiasm, it's a deadly sin. *grin*)
Therapical to watch fishes
Finally we got moving, before being lured into another part just next to the aquarium. There is a Koi pond inside and many many Kois. Of course the kids got into a frenzy again over the fishes, which are all swimming so near the edge, looking for food I supposed. My mom and I too got into a frenzy fearing that they might fall in and become fish food. haha. I saw the sign that said that we could buy fish food from the pet stall which was so conveniently situated just next to the pond. I wonder if fish food is the only things they actually sold. Imagine, a Pet stall in a corner? *boggle* So I bought the $2 a pack ( don't expect too big a pack, it's just enough to feed the fishes till you are bored.) fish food and the kids started "throwing" the food in. Well, the fishes are mightily hungry and rushed for the food. 
After feeding, we went in search of our( I mean everyone including Aly and Alex) all time favourte restaurant, "Crystal Jade La Mian Xiao Long Bao" to utilize the voucher. Too bad Northpoint's Crystal Jade was closed due to the owner not extending the contract. One nice restaurant less, one less place for us to go *sniff* Anyway, Crystal Jade has so many outlets, but we only like the one that serve La Mian and Xiao Long Bao only. That's because we LOVE the seafood fried rice. Aly will always point to the picture and say I want seafood fried rice. To our utter horror, Suntec's outlet do not serve the 
seafood fried rice :( In the end we ordered another type of fried rice. After a hearty meal, we had mango puddings to go with. I think "Crystal Jade" has the best mango pudding. It is smooth, with some soft mango cubes within and not too sweet. Taste heaven with the condensed milk. The best part is, you could share it with your kid so you won't feel so sinful about eating it hehe. We happily used the voucher and the bill only comes up to $12 plus. Wonderful, it will be nice to have this kind of voucher more often haha.
