Doong Ji Korean Restuarant @ 222 East Coast Road

A couple of my friends are Korean TV drama addicts, I'm not. I've not even seen a single Korean drama all my life. Anyway, we wanted to meet & catch up & those two suggested Korean food naturally ...lol... They warned they are going to convert me into being an addict just like them! Ok.... we'll see. This is the place. Doong Ji Korean Restuarant @ 222 East Coast Road, S(428919)

Truth is, I've passed by this place a hundred times, but never go in as it's always crowded. So when they suggested it, I'm quite pleased. We went on a Sunday night which was surprisingly not that busy. It seems weekdays & Saturdays are they're busiest times. Or maybe we're just being lucky.

Once inside I noticed a few of the tables were occupied by Koreans. This always tells one thing, this place must have reminded them of home, or at least they find the food ok. Another plus. We just ordered something simple.

The lettuce were surprising fresh- lovely. All the kimchi were delicious. Definitely of better & fresher quality than what you'll find in normal restaurants. Also the head waitress or she could be the lady Boss was really charming & beautiful ....haha.... In all, a very pleasant experience, & food is good. Will I come again , YES , I will :))

Am I converted to watching Korean Dramas now?  no not yet ..... it'll take more than a wonderful meal for that :))

Is it important for you if your food looks good?

What do you think of food presentation? Is it important for you if your food looks good? Do you tend to eat more if it looks beautiful. The Japanese are famous for that, it's an art form for them. No wonder we love Japanese food don't we ? Lucky for us, Japanese food is usually quite healthy ...haha..

The trend these days is to take pictures of food before you eat them. Especially during the holidays, something to remember the special meals by, what more if they look interesting as well.

I know, the first time I saw this, I go ....sigh ...... How do you expect one to eat something so creative & beautiful?

What would you help me move ? lol..

Meeting Yuki again was perhaps the happiest day of my recent life. We went to the same secondary school before. Since then we've been texting non-stop. In fact we've touch base with a few other friends & had arranged to meet up again coming weekend. Can't wait!

Then my dad told me this morning we have to go clear up things from our rental apartment as our tenant is moving out in a few days time. The existing furniture has been there for years- super old. Dad wanted to move them away, bring in newer furniture before we put it up for rental again. Not many things, small things like lamps, light bookcases from ikea, plants etc...

Told my friends I've to cancel. Then all of them said WHY? why don't everyone help out? It'll be done in no time with all of us:)) OMG .... I'm so touched!  My dad was so happy, he said he'll pay for our lunch -Dim Sum at Imperial Treasure, after  !
Yay !!!!
Then Jess (another long lost friend) sent us this through group chat.

                                          

A light lunch : Spaghetti at Dome

Many of you ask me about what I eat after my weight loss program to maintain my weight. It's important to eat right. Rule of the thumb, don't ever over eat again even if you are celebrating some important events or on vacation. It's just not worth it. Yes I'm still taking Garbaslim as a supplement. It helps a lot.

The other day I had lunch at Dome, one of my favorite places. And guess what, they have a new menu, smaller, lesser items which makes it easier to decide. I'm so for this change. I had this .

A complete meal: spaghetti with vegetables , tomatoes, garlic & it tasted great ! They even throw in a latte for $1-  These days I go for light lunches like this. It still fills the tummy & it's yummy. See you don't have to starve. Just take a very light dinner every day. And I promise, you'll be fine !
