New Home

This is where home will be in 2 week's time. A small but cosy 3-bedroom cottage by the beach. Literally by the beach. There's about 15 feet of garden in the front which will be fantastic for BBQs.

Happy Birthday To Me!

Yup... I turned 24 yesterday. Feels good to be 24... and this is what 24 year olds do. This is also proof that contrary to popular belief, I am capable of doing fun things whilst sober... given the right time, place and most importantly, the right motivation... my beloved wife. She's made me do parasailing (I have a fear for heights), ride the terrifying Orbiter and many more... and as you can see in this picture, other crazy and fun stuff too. She brings out the best or worst (depending on whose point of view it is) in me. I do crazier stuff but that's not for public domain. :)

My in-laws visited us for the weekend and between her and them, they tried so desperately to give me a surprise cake. It was hard for her... I know... me being me, I catch all the small codes and signs... I actually catch a lot but I just pretend not to know most of the time... and with me also being the number 2 here on a private island... how do you smuggle a cake here without me knowing? And it gets even harder when there is someone else in their entourage who has the same birthday as me whom they're trying to surprise as well? That left her no choice but to work with the team here. They almost pulled it off... almost. The last 5 minutes gave them away but I just played along as the other one had no clue what was happening. I am very appreciative of her efforts.

Thank you my beloved wife for making the day special and for everyone who left me wishes, thank you for remembering this 'young fart'.

Taste Restaurant Lounge

I'm way overdue with my postings. I have a lot to post too but have not got around to it just yet. But... I decided to post this first to keep my small audience updated and to maintain your interest.

My wife and I decided on some International cuisine today. So I started looking for a good restaurant for dinner which is pretty difficult here coz they're all pretty good. After some searching I came across Taste which is ranked the #2 restaurant around here on TripAdvisor. 

Here's what we had for dinner... Clockwise from top left... 

The Australian Burger 385B

Wagyu Rump Steak 470B

Quesadilla with Fire Roasted Tomato Salsa 190B

Hot Wings Chili and Tamarind Glaze 190B

They were all good and tasty. The restaurant was full. My wife and I were two of three Asian diners in the entire restaurant which was packed with about 80 persons.

I'm hungry again... Hahaha... Oh, by the way... this is in Phuket, Surin Beach.
