There, we are back again at the Taiwanese Restaurant inside the Tanjong Pagar Xchange. We were actually planning to go to Amara Shopping Centre to have our subway. But it was raining so heavily that we’ve to drop the idea.  So in the end, we went back to the Taiwanese Restaurant.

This is really nice! This delicacy is made of bean spout, carrot, spring onion. The chilli accompanied with this taste like the one you have for Fried Oyster Omelette. It tastes as nice without the chilli.

Ranked the 2nd position in the 2008 Franchise 500 Rankings, Subway has over 29,045 franchised units in 86 countries as of March 2008 and is the fastest growing franchise in the world. It provides a healthy alternative to fatty fast food. On Wednesday afternoon, my department colleagues and I went to Amara Hotel Shopping Centre for lunch. We settled our lunch at Subway Restaurant.

There are 4 steps to create your own Subway sandwich. First, choose the sub you want. They are: Classic, 6 Grams of Fat or Less, Hot Subs, Local Favorites. Then, choose the bread from Wheat, Italian, Parmesan Oregano or Honey Oat. You can opt for either six inch or a food long.

A taste-tempting combination of our famous lean and tender sliced turkey, ham and crispy bacon topped with melted cheese and served hot I had the 6 inch on Honey Oat bread with tomatoes, pickles, cucumber as my toppings. I had Honey Mustard as the sauce.

I paid for an extra charge for the meal. The meal comes with a drink of your own choice and a piece of cookie of your own choice. I got myself Macadamia Nut cookie. Really a nice meal before heading back to the office..

Looking for a value-for-money place? Finding a place that provides meal that can make you full, but without burning your pocket? Try Just Acia.

Every set meal comes together with free flow of drinks (Pepsi, Root Beer, Iced Peach Tea and etc) or cappucino, free flow of 6 flavours of ice cream(chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, chocolate chip, coffee, mango).

The menu

Last friday after work, went Just Acia to have dinner with my caregroup. I shared the Chicken Teriyaki and Soft Shell Crab double set with my brother. The set includes a plate of soft shell crabs, a plate of chicken teriyaki, a bowl of Thai Fragrance rice and a bowl of miso soup.

翻唱-在世界中心(潘嘉丽)

Recorded 25 December 2007

我静静靠着那里听叶落的声音
你是不是会听得见
看天空的星星浮云飘荡的风景
微风吹落了的脚印

一只蝴蝶轻轻飞过了你的身边
构成一幅动人画面
oh baby 在整个世界中心的就是你
有着不一样的感应

每当花开花落的季节我又忍不住想起
你那独一无二的气息
小心栽种把所有的感情埋在我的心里
期待着有那开花结果的一天 就是你

我最爱的餐厅和你喜欢的电影 回忆里专属的场景
宠坏我的任性分享我的好心情 你总是什么都答应
有你出现再无聊也会变成特别 甜蜜占满整个视线
oh baby 在整个世界中心的就是你 占据着爱你的权利

每当花开花落的季节在这停下的时间 当你静静熟睡的气息
很孩子气 印在我的心里感觉多么熟悉
关于有多爱你写成花瓣情书随着落叶寄给你

每当花开花落的季节我又忍不住想起 好想轻轻的告诉你
一种默契就是那么贴心 把你写在我的记忆里
来不及 就是如此忐忑不安静 爱上你

整个天空都是为了你 布满忧郁却很甜蜜的空气
那是我傻傻的想你 我期待下雨后的晴天 那一段暖暖的秘密

每当花开花落的季节我又忍不住想起 你那独一无二的气息
每个冬季翻开你的记忆仍在我的心里
期待着有那开花结果的一天 爱上你

翻唱-崇拜(梁静茹)

Recorded 19 December 2007

你的姿态
你的青睐
我存在 在 你的存在
你以为爱
就是被爱
你挥霍了我的崇拜
我活了 我爱了
我都不管了
心爱到疯了 恨到算了
就好了
可能的
可以的
真的可惜了
幸福好不容易
怎么你却不敢了呢
我还以为我们能
不同于别人
我还以为不可能的
不会不可能
你的姿态
你的青睐
我存在 在 你的存在
你以为爱
就是被爱
你挥霍了我的崇拜

翻唱- 不想懂得 (張韶涵)

Recorded 8 December 2007

当世界 不知不觉的变了
有时后 我怀念以前的我
作的梦虽然远远的
想像是一种快乐
拥有了 同时也失去什麼
而眷恋 原来会带来软弱
你让我在雾里成熟
心开始曲折
我不想舍得 不想懂得
是谁惹谁 言不由衷
说谎伤害 都是不安犯的错
怕抱不紧什麼
我不想舍得 不想懂得
谁说割爱 才更深刻
彼此依赖 是爱不是负荷
互相照顾 就是幸福的

当世界 不知不觉的变了
有时后 我怀念以前的我
作的梦虽然远远的
想像是一种快乐
拥有了 同时也失去什麼
而眷恋 原来会带来软弱
你让我在雾里成熟
心开始曲折
我不想舍得 不想懂得
是谁惹谁 言不由衷
说谎伤害 都是不安犯的错

怕抱不紧什麼
我不想舍得 不想懂得
谁说割爱 才更深刻
彼此依赖 是爱不是负荷
能握著手 就是感动的

我愿意 一秒钟放弃全宇宙
挤在只有我们 紧靠的小星球

我不想舍得 不想懂得
是谁惹谁 言不由衷
说谎伤害 都是不安犯的错
怕抱不紧什麼
我多不舍得 多不懂得
谁说割爱 才更深刻
彼此依赖 是爱不是负荷
能握著手 就是感动的
