Paradiso.

Enjoying life while I can is what I do best now hehehe.

Woke up late and spent my whole afternoon reading drama recaps of Arang and the Magistrate, from episode 1 all the way to the last episode, ep 20. Hehe ^^v

In case you don't know, I have this weird obsession with drama recaps.

Cuz usually when I have school I don't have the luxury of time to finish a drama

if I start watching it, and I'm afraid that if I start watching a drama 

I won't be able to concentrate on my studies.

So for me, I feel that rather than exposing myself to the risk of giving in to temptations,

just remove those temptations and there won't be any problem at all.

Because of this, I'm contented with reading drama recaps,

and I usually get them from Dramabeans :)

They're quite efficient and recaps usually come out the following day the drama is aired.

Recaps usually come episode by episode, with pictures and sometimes important dialogues.

I enjoy reading recaps cuz some recappers can be really entertaining with their comments and writing style haha.

It's sort of a habit for me now, and sometimes when I do get the

chance to watch dramas, I can get impatient and I would end up

reading recaps instead because I wanna know what's gonna happen next.

Reading recaps can even move me to tears sometimes lol!

It's just so much more convenient~

Yeah I still watch the dramas after reading the recaps luhh, cuz my super duper bad stm allows me to enjoy the drama without really remembering what's gonna happen next LOL.

Oops too carried away talking about drama recaps heh.

So anyway, tonight we had a family dinner to celebrate my bro's birthday tomorrow.

The dinner was at Paradiso Restaurant & Bar, located at Sentosa.

It has a nice ambience, and the food was not too bad.

However, I think there wasn't enough staff to tend to customers.

As a result, the service can be a bit slow and they messed up one of our orders,

but the staff were friendly so it's not really an issue for me.

I just wanted to enjoy the evening with my family

so I was in a good mood haha.

On the way to Paradiso, we walked past this wonderful place!
-cues flooding of photos-

Super pretty right ♥.♥

Mandatory photo!
Isn't the scenery much more prettier here? LOL

Love how it feels like you're walking among the stars here.
Very dreamy horh??

I wanna have this place at my house one day pleaseeeee

Finally, at Paradiso!

Sitting outside gives us a waterfront view, which is quite relaxing.

Although for me I chose to sit facing the restaurant hahaha.

I'm not gonna give a review on every dish cuz we decided to be normal human beings and eat peacefully instead of snapping each dish before we get to eat.

But the most memorable one was the first dish to come up, a seafood platter with rice called Mariscos a la Valenciana...

BECAUSE IT WAS SO SPICY.

It looked harmless until I nom nom nom-ed

I downed one whole freaking glass of water from eating a small plateful of it LOL.

But it was nice after you get used to the spicy-ness, and the prawns were good.

-inserts random pic of myself-

Paradiso only has one washroom that can be used by both ladies and gents, and interestingly enough I think it's air-conditioned LOL

My mum says that it's kinda dirty cuz there were stains on the toilet seat,

so she had to wash the seat before she dared to use.

Tsk-tsks to all the guys who couldn't aim properly.

And yeah, they should probably check on the hygiene level of their toilet more often.

Here's a family pic :)
So hard to adjust the brightness of the photo :/ Too bright and the cake looks like it's on fire.

The photo was taken by one of the staff working there.

See? Friendly service!

 More pics of our birthday boy~

The cake was a mango mousse cake from Bakerzin,

and it was not bad! (Y)

My mum ordered another chocolate mousse cake for the actual birthday tomorrow.

Omg so fattening -cries many rivers-

This pic turned out kinda nice cuz my mum used flash with her iphone~
Did I mention I hate flashes?
But the pic turned out ok so I'm ok with it too hehe :P

After taking the pic I was like whining about the flash and stuff and my mum went to take another pic.. and I immediately shut myself up and posed for the pic the moment I saw the flash. LOL.

Not bad right? HAHAHA

My mum so evil lor, she laughed like siao after taking the pic sia.

My aunt and uncle laughed like siao too.

And I laughed like siao three.

My aunt was impressed with how fast I reacted HAHAHA.

Can't help it, born ready for cameras LOL.

My #ootd~
Nope I'm not wearing heels, maybe I'm too tired cuz for a moment I thought I was wearing heels.

Not uploading many photos cuz photos taken at night are just so unflattering.

Time to invest in a good camera maybe?

The dinner was a good way to end off my evening.

Didn't go for manicure with Claudia and Ashleigh as planned cuz I just remembered that I'm going back to work for the weekend, so no manicure for me :(

Anyway, if you wanna dine at Paradiso, you can book a table online through their website.

It's kinda troublesome if you wanna take public transport there, so I would suggest going by car or cab.

My mum met us there from work so we had to take public transport..

Take MRT to Harbourfront MRT station and take the Sentosa Express to Beach Station (last station).

They have free shuttle bus service there, so look for a sign that says Bus 3.

The bus comes at 30 min intervals, so if you missed the bus by 5 min like us...

I feel you. Hahaha.

Alight at Sentosa Cove Village, which is the 4th stop from the station.

You should ask the bus driver when to alight because the bus doesn't stop unless someone rang the bell, so you might lose count of the number of stops.

From there, go down the stairs and you will be able to see a few restaurants.

You'll have to walk a bit though, just treat it as exercising luh :)

Okiee, off to bed already~

I think I can't wake up early to go Johor with my mum le, it's 2am now.

Woots, good night sweethearts!

Thanks for reading! ^^
