Brunch at Keven Cafe

Keven Cafe at Heng Shan Lu
  • serving International food
  • open till 2am, so its a good place for supper and drinks
Beijing Olympics Time table

drinking Bios Life Complete before food!

Nasi Goreng with chicken satay

Nasi is fried rice and it was cold and hard.. bad!
I was disappointed how the egg looks,
the shape was not round,
looks like a fried egg done by someone who just learned cooking, not a cook.

Salad
quite ok but I hope the veg can be more fresh and sweet
Chicken sandwich with salad and fries

overall very good except that the cheese in sandwich were very salty
which made the last few bites too difficult to continue.
The fries were crispy and nice.


checking out the maps before setting off


views from our seats



packing and ready to go!

Overall comment:

  • easy to find location
  • restaurant environment cosy
  • staffs were friendly but need to call for service
  • western food is good but too salty
  • don't try other international food like Nasi Goreng
  • eager to try outdoor sitings during winter... bet its a good chill out place for afternoon tea or night drinks

2)communication skill varies from different people - we DON't knoe what we dont know!
3) STOP building bridges!

my first wedding invitation in Shanghai

My colleague invited me to her wedding celebration.
this is the invitation card and gift... creative gift ya?











How I protect my lungs!

it is damn polluted in Shanghai and like the rest of the Singaporeans, I've developed constant cough and lung problems after staying here for awhile.
I've no choice but to do something!

Lilian was so amazed and were taking pictures of me secretly!


I caught her! CARE BEAR STARE!

doesn't work! still taking pictures!

Dinner at Portuguese restaurant

Junior and Lilian met up with me for dinner at my office building
it was after my work and by the time I rushed there, we have to make payment after our order.


look at the chip at the corner of this bowl.
Don't be surprised to see such thing in China



After dinner, we had a hard time catching cabs with the rest of the world
so we went to a new cafe to have some drinks
nice cafe place but lousy cake and drinks.
we don't even taste any alcohol in this cocktail
good luck to them!
