This hairstyle was created with much laughter between leney and myself,
trying to figure out how to work with my little hair and ensuring a full nice puff. :p
Read on to know!
Shall begin with a bit of what's up at the fashion inspirations side,
if you are looking at the top above, it's in stores!
wearing the baby pink polka dot top from pearlavish to roam around streets of Tampines!
And summery dresses are on the roll too, here's one summer green twisted strap dress from pearlavish too.
After getting bubbleteas (my favourite!), hurhur and I went over to leney's place to await for the night plans.
Training hur to do more poses with me. :p
Heard so much about applepie's raving of the smith fish and chips, we decided to make it a trip down to try it.
I am a huge fan of fish, and fish and chips definitely is no exception.
I always thought Harry's Fish and Chips is really good and go try it!
They have promotion for lunch for the work crowd.
So anyways, Smith's fish and chips is located along Katong Street,
right opposite the caltex, and parking is horrendous along the road, so another place that most people park would be BEHIND caltex.
Take note that once you see caltex, turn into the small road, and boy, the "fine" officers are ultra efficient there, we spotted two when we left the carpark
and spotted one more new person when we came back!! -.- Absolutely no cheating of even a minute. heh
Crossing the road, walking towards smith..
Finally we reached, logo looks simple but straight to the point.
Britain = good fish and chips.
Good fish and chips = Britain.
P.S: They said any fish and chips you can find in Britain is good.
But i remembered trying fish and chips in Britain, and i thought it wasn't good at all!!
You can spot this sign right outside by the road.
and boy, it was friggin packed!!
One of the owners there i suppose (the Caucasian guy).
He was absolutely loud in his voice, calling out numbers that almost got us jumped off from the seat periodically.
But i guess that's because we were seated extremely near him at the long table near facing the wall.
uber packed.. hmmm
I like the photographs decor at the place.
The fans of Smith's! And the perpetual beer lover on the right!
Rootbeer best buds.
I'm not a fan of rootbeer at all though..
hungry but happy people waiting for food!
Hungry us too.
Szweetest girl and my smb with her dude!
Sauces for your fish and chips: HP sauce ( i like!), ketchup, vinegar, salt.
yessss, both vinegar and salt on fish and chips ROCK!
The special thing about Smith's i suppose, is the liberty for you to choose the type of fish you would want
such as Haddock, Cod, Dory, Barramundi etc.
My two favourites are definitely Cod and Dory, which the former is best at steam and grilled, and the latter is best at fried and grilled in my opinion.
But of course, comparing the price of Cod and Dory, Cod is certainly more expensive!
Joseph ordered the fried mars bar (SGD$5) on the left, but i prefer chippy's one. (chippy's never fail to satisfy me!)
I prefer the chopped ones before frying than a whole bar taken to fry,
but in terms of the batter accompanying the mars bar, chippy's still wins hands-down though.
Everything looked the same so i just captured one of our orders, heh.
Hurhur, leney and myself ordered two types of fish to try,
we had dory fish (SGD$10) and cod fish (SGD$17) that came with home/steak fries.
Verdict:
Dory fish being the lowest priced there, was apparently the BEST in hurhur's, leney's and my opinion.
The cod was rather dry upon frying and didn't taste as satisfying than the dory which tasted juicy and tender.
I like the setting and location of the place,
suppose because it's run by Caucasians who are from Britain, hence the image that it would serve ultra good fish and chips.
But for the quality of the fish and chips, to smith's fans, I'm afraid I would give it a miss I would say.
i prefer harry's fish and chips for now and will be sourcing for more good ones to come!

And the program after our foodevour would be visiting the K-TEE-VEE!
Also, after hearing so much about KTV = TEO HENG,
apple actually booked it a week in advance as it's always fully booked.
here's us squeezing and insisting on taking with the birdie logo.
my "jay chou" woohoo!
muahhaha, crazy us.
Teo heng has really small rooms but i have to give it to them given the price we paid.
We sang for 4 hours, and paid $6 each!!
the respective jay chous..
my s.h.e-alike singer and her jaychou and my wen-lan- alike and her jay chou.
look at my jaychou!!! looking super engrossed :p
so guess what?
While roaming in Tampines, I walked pass one of the shelves in cold storage @ Tampines 1 and saw this on sale!
The bumpits!!
Never knew this thing existed though it has been around for ages,
and muahaha, its so fun to play with.
Especially when i do not have volume hair to begin with,
this should help!
So after about a good 15 mins to 30 mins, leney did up this hair style for me using the medium bumpit!!
i like but its super ah gogo!
Not sure if its because of my top, or if i just do this hair with normal dressing will it look okay?
i googled and blair in gossip girl with her bumpits.
I like her hair style!!
In case you are curious, this is how it is done!
and the many hair styles we can do with it,
i'm so gonna try it and come back with peeks if i can.
And oh yes, i;m in a rush to head out and here's two new ones that are worth checking out too!
*Don't you love rompers? This classic black romper from La Nouveau Mode would do the trick!
And other than bodycon skirts, here's a satin one from La Nouveau Mode that can be really versatile too.
