RE: I love Saturdays

Our church had a new sermon series this month.
It's called 'The Jesus, I never knew'.
It is such an amazing and insightful series.
Had really learnt so much of the characteristics of Jesus,
and was convicted once again that God is good.

Is Jesus Rude?
Is Jesus Divisive?
Is Jesus Violent?
You can download the audio online sermons from this link and hear for yourself.
A little bit of insights to see what God sees and becoming little Christ,
then spread his glory to all of the world.
God is good.


And the past week, there were 2 worship songs that is stuck in my head.
The Alabaster Jar


and Till I see you

Have a wonderful spirit filled time with God.



After service, we went out for a very yummy dinner.
=] at Steakout.

It's in Bras Besar, the ground level of Victoria Hotel.
Been there a few times, and it is as awesome as always.




I have ordered a Sirloin steak with red wine sauce, medium.
With onion rings and garlic spaghetti.
Their garlic spaghetti is delicious!
But I find their onion rings a bit too doughy, and a bit too crispy.
The sound it makes while eating this is very unladylike,
shouldn't eat this if you are trying to impression someone with your good manners.
hahaha...


I've got a shaky hand here, but you can still see the beautiful pink blush of the cut.
My friend got a medium steak too but his was a little redder and bloodier.


John's plate. He took the picture. (Just saying)


Another one of my friend, Ken ordered a T-bone steak, medium rare.


After I took my take of his food, he shook his head at me and got my phone to take his take.

What's with guys and thinking that they have to have the overview of the entire plate????

His feedback after the meal.
I wasn't sure what's the problem here,
but he said the the steak wasn't thaw properly
and thus, the meat around the bone is still uncooked.
But I still think it is awesomely delicious anyways.


Ken being sisterly.


It's great to have good company and good food. =]
They have chicken, duck steak and pasta in their menu as well.

We have a friend in our group whose a vegetarian, they whipped out a vegetarian spaghetti for him.
Really thoughtful of them, but it seems like it wasn't very nice. (My friend didn't finish them.)

Of course, the rest of us cleared our plates.


After that, we went for desserts in Bugis. Just a few streets down.

Choosing what to eat is serious business.


Really thank God for this wonderful people in the LG. =]

And I really like fellowshiping with them on Saturday nights. =]

I love Saturdays

My church have a few services each week.
Because there's too many people and, 
although we just moved to a new and much bigger place, 
the auditorium is too small a space, can't fit everyone in.
The group I'm in is the young adults group, 
our service is scheduled on Saturday evenings.
And there is no better time to come together and worship God!

Even if sometimes we have to reject some invitations from prebelieving friends,
miss out on fun events that you want to go.
But there is nothing better than putting God as the priority and come to Him.
=]


Another reason why it is such good timing is that after service, it's party time.
Together with this bunch of awesome life buddies, we would always go try out new places, chill out.
We share our lives with one another, we do our lives together, we are a lifegroup.
It has always been a great and fulfilling time with them, growing and learning together.


So last Saturday, we went to somewhere we have yet to go before.
Singapore Food Trail.
Why haven't I been there before??? 



It is right under the Singapore flyers.

We walked over from promenade MRT Station.

Then we finally reached there, Singapore Food Trail, Old school style.


Great ambiance. There's air con, no kidding.
GREAT FOOD! It's like a gathering of the best and traditional food from all over the island.
Bah Kut Teh (Highly recommended by my friend)

The sweet garlic, spice and pepper pork ribs soup with their best condiment partner, 
chili padi in dark soy sauce. 
You eat this with white rice, but I like to add some dark soy sauce in the rice.
Awesome! 
I'm drooling as I'm writing this.

Also, if you are not the shy type, and if you can't get enough of the flavorful soup,
You can go back to the vendor to get a refill of soup.

There are some side dishes for Bah Kut Teh too. The braised pig's trotter looks so good.

Another dish that is recommended by my friend, Satay Bee Hoon.
Not my cup of tea but my friend said it's nice. 
Though I like the cuttlefish which is tender and soft.

My all time favourite anywhere I go, Oyster Omelette.
It is mainly eat as a side dish, together with their special tangy chili that compliments the fresh oysters. 

Singapore's pride: Chicken rice. They have their special chili sauce too, which is usually heavy on garlic.

Hokien mee, Usually fried with seafood.
You can't really see from here but they are probably hidden inside somewhere. 

Fried Kway Teow. Another flavorful dish.  

After the heaty meal, sugar cane drink cools you down immediately.
I find it over priced, so if you mind that a lot, bring your own water.

As desserts, they have Ice Ka Chang Ball.
Nowadays, you rarely find them in the ball shape, which made it extra special and extra traditional.

I saw that they have black/white carrot cake too.
Which looks delicious, but I was too full with my Bah Kut Teh.
Will be trying that the next time I go. ^^

Great price. Considering that it is at a tourist attraction area, 
and people don't mind paying the price for good food.
Great company. =]


It's my first time there and I am simply blown away.
Will definitely bring friends there.
A great place to eat, but it will be quite troublesome if the group is too big like ours.
Since we have to find seats for all of us, and if you are not aggressive enough, 
you most probably lose it to our hungry-for-good-food-and-don't-like-waiting locals.


After dinner, we had a surprise birthday celebration for a brother.
In the cave that is in the park right beside where we ate, it's too dark.

Saturday is a great day.

God bless you,
have a fruitful day everyday.

Here's my LG, family in Christ.
There are some missing but here's the most of us. =]
