Sushi Jiro - Yummy

It was wifey's birthday and we went to this little joint at Siglap (near cheescake cafe), called Sushi jiro. Superbly fresh sashimi, here's the medium set, with seabream, fat yellowtail (it's...dripping with fat), flounder (damn sweet tasting!), deep red tuna (never seen such red fish before), and one more I can't recall now! One will never even go near the soya source as the fish is so heavenly good and the freshly grated wasabi is delicious on it's own!

The impeccably made Sushi Moriwase.

The famous Yellow tail cheek, grilled. Wasn't to my liking on this day.

Had the Hananomai Chyo Karakuchi, dry and sweet.

Some mucus-like egg + Yam which the wife loves...

Aromatic, balanced, and a perfect way to end a dinner, the soup in a teapot!

Marina Bay Sands, 'on top of the world'!

A memorable weekend. 5hour wait to get the room. A huge relief. Great dinner at Imperial Treasure with friends and relatives. Perfect view of the Youth Olympic Games event. Fireworks right at your eyeball level. Good wine. Great companionship. Swimming at the top of the Singapore.

Happy birthday to me. ;)

Steak - Degree of rareness

2010-04-03 Formula 1 Sepang

It was getting a bit more boring each year it seems. With the no-refuelling rule during a race, it really gets much less interesting than before. The only thing that is keeping the 2010 season alive has been rain so far, and the reliability issues faced by many teams. This year, the wifey and I trooped up to Sepang once again. We saw heavy rain during qualifying, Nick Heifeld in person, a large Petronas presence in their home turf, and personally, waning interest in visiting Sepang. It's almost to a point of seeing that and done that.
