This year we celebrated Adik’s 23rd birthday at Earle’s with really great steaks and sausages. The meat was cooked to perfection, juicy and tender. We ordered Charbroiled T-bone steaks, Grilled Lobster pasta, Surf and Turf, Grilled Cod with Rice, Poultry Combo, Mango Shrimps, Baked Ocean Mussels and for dessert, an Apple Crumble in a sizzling pan topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream which was really yummy. My favourite main I would have to say would be the Poultry Combo. The smoked duck was out of this world and the snail sausage was soooo good. The smoked duck didn’t taste gamey at all, perfectly smoked…wishing I had some now
I’ve always found Earle to provide a much better selection then its normal outlets. The cuts of meat here were much better then the ones I tried at outlets in the city where it was either overcooked, dry and frankly quite a dissapointment despite requesting for a medium steak.It’s been six months since we’ve been to Vivocity, wonder when are we going to Earle’s again though.

Geylang during Ramadhan
It’s been almost a year since my last post. It seems this year I haven’t been eating out much at all. So other then forgetting my password and not going much, I haven’t had the inspiration to blog about anything. This year’s Ramadhan, the bazaar at Geylang seemed to be too overcrowded more so than last year. Usually, I’d be craving for all sorts of snacks and tidbits but somehow this fasting month, I don’t want to eat much of anything. Perhaps because I’ve been sick and all the meds are killing my tastebuds. Instead of thinking of food ever so often, I’ve been reading the Yassin. This will be the first Eid without my Grandfather, I wonder how it’s going to be. Ramadhan without him is already very sad. Anyways, the celebratory feeling of Eid festivities is lost for me, it just makes me morose then usual.

Throat is bleeding, who knows why.. and my asthma attacks are suddenly resurfacing (maybe that’s why they call ‘em attacks?). My Seretide inhaler and Ventolin inhaler are not helping much, neither were my Angised pills..it feels as though my chest is tightening for every breath I try to take. I’m unable to take deep breaths, instead short shallow breaths and tha further exarcebates the pain in my chest. I haven’t been able to sleep much or lately for that matter. I toss and turn on my bed, trying to find an angle, a position , that’ll enable me to breath well and sleep properly. All for naught, my eyes are like a panda’s now..yes I am an insomniac, but I still need get a little nap right before dawn. Perhaps I’ve been overworking myself too much, or the weather’s that’s been acting crazy is affecting me, brain’s on overload with emotional bagage or maybe it’s just my body telling me that I need to rest. Sigh. Darn it I want to breath! Tommorow’s the first day of Ramadan, insya’allah I hope I would be able to manage fast the whole month. Last year, I managed to alhamdullilah, well that’s also due to the meds that I’ve been taking, screwing up my whole body system. Anyways, to all who practice fasting in the month of Ramadan, to my muslim sisters and brothers, happy fasting!
