The kids finished the Gardenia butter rolls we brought along and each had a small cup of Ben & Jerry ice-cream (very expensive at $4.40 per cup after discount). Then we went to eat fishball noodles at Yishun market and definitely one of the cheapest around. $2.50 per bowl!
In the afternoon, we watched Rapunzel at GV Vivocity, as promised to the children. By the time the show ended, both children were hungry and tired. We wanted to go off to IMM for dinner, so they could rest in the car. But NO! M wanted to eat there. Jo wanted to eat salmon. The only place I could think of was Marche.
DISASTER!
M ate half a slice of salmon with white rice. Jo had the other half slice of salmon and a jumbo chicken cheese sausage. M complained he was hungry, so we ordered grilled turkey breast. He didn't like it. Then we ordered a pizza (half salami, half mushroom). He complained the pizza was bitter, salty, too sweet. omg. We gave up. $60 spent for a dis-satisfied meal. And the two children were fighting over colour pencils!
Conclusion of this special day was disastrous!
but i managed to get Jo to smile for this photo. actually she was the one who wanted to take photo! :P
Food? We better stick to Japanese food, chinese food. No more western style cooking, i.e. we cannot plan a trip to Oz with the Tans!
P/s - has anybody else spotted this trio of a pea-hen & her 2 chicks in the zoo? cute!

Sandy,
You should have fed the kids with Swiss Rosti and Sausage. Never go wrong with mine =p
Vivian, other than french fries and hashbrowns, my kids dun eat other forms of potatoes. if we really decide to go Oz, my gf said they shld be able to survive on fish & chips, which in my opinion, vv unhealthy.. wahahaha.
My kids love McDonalds and Fish and Chips but after eating that 3 days in a row when we were last in OZ... the enthusiasm took a dip LOL
Glad that the family had fun in Japan!
I love udon too but my kids prefer ramen. They got hooked to ramen when we were there.
We've never been to Marche at vivo cos hubby thinks it's over-priced (actually it's quite so). We are always at Sushi-tei before 12noon on weekends, or you can try Pu Tien (very yummy tofu dish for the kids, and they will also love the fried - oops - brinjal with pork floss! and sweet-sour pork with lychee). Another haunt of ours is the Imperial Treasure restaurant outside Daiso. Ask for their lunch 'xiao cai' ala carte menu (it's cheaper, each dish only about $6 dollars but they don't usu. hand it out!! lots of choices to choose from!)
btw, in Oz (we went perth in oct 2010), we ate a lot of good chinese and japanese food cos my parents were with us. The food courts cannot make it (except for one with a stall by Singaporean/Malaysian). Gotto head to the chinese restaurants and usu. quite good. The scallops are humongous!!
sorry for the double-post. had some problems here. and oops, i meant to say 'Imperial Herbal restaurant' outside Daiso.
chat soon! take care, and Xin Nian Kuai Le!
... if this rain goes on like that, we won't be able to go anywhere for visiting!!?!
