Google going kiasu?

Hmmm... an incentive to go Singapore at last. It looks like Google is coming to Singapore. Too bad it ain't Malaysia. Read all about it here.

I wonder if the office is going to be like Googleplex with junk food and stuff.

Wii owners, collect all five colors now!

Looks like Nintendo is coming up with a few more color variations for Wii. Maybe to blend in with different home decos.

I kinda like the green one actually since it looks quite fresh. Black, as usual, will look cool on anything. What's your favorite Wii color?

(Jason, get the red one for Chinese New Year)

Since you guys probably read a ton of blogs, why not share with others and propel your favorite blogs to geek stardom or, God forbid, religion (this certainly rings true for me since I check some blogs more than I pray!)

Nomination for 2007 Bloggies are open now. Enter 2006's best blogs here. There are other awards, but this one seems less commercialized than most, which means prizes are nothing to shout about (but blogging is all about sharing and exposure, no?)

Team Dinner @ Unique

We had our team dinner at Unique Seafood (奇怪) last Saturday. Yes, another team dinner again. Hehehe. This time was for year end and it was really not easy to have the whole team together. Unfortunately Eric ffk in last minute (Sorry Eric, not so easy to photoshop you in).

We ordered some really nice food:

• Roasted Goose - Wanted to be a geese team...not roasted of course... :p
• Australian Lobster Sashimi - Eat it raw or cook it...mmm...yummy
• Snow Crab - Can you see Mabel's expression? Just like Jamie Oliver's 'Lovely'!
• Steamed Soon Hock - Should have ordered Sou Mei...
• Grilled Lamb Rib - Western style + Chinese Seafood?? Didn't bother because it tasted good.
• Lobster Fried Noodle

+ Some white wine.

We then had a drinking session at The Sanctuary Resto Club @ The Curve. Everyone was a bit high after some tequila, shooters and beer.

It was a fun night.

Forget Vienna

It's so long away.

For me, it's enough if I have Vista running on this:
First Sideshow
Mode details

So cool... * Err.. guys, don't go around breaking your notebooks first, unlikely we'll be able to use this anytime soon *

On the downside, first Vista security flaw uncovered (albeit a small one). Read more here.

Team Dinner

This is the first time I post to this team blog. Have to as this about our another team dinner...

This is a bit different from our previous one because we have our 'Si Tou Poh' (Lady Boss) and new SDM, plus other 2 teams joining as well. The dinner was at La Bodega, Bangsar. It's quite a nice place, good ambience.


















































nice decor with wine bottles

We started with some drinks and tapas. The Chile's 2001 Shiraz was nice (nice to me as long as it feels smooth and doesn't burn my throat). According to our Mastermind, the person who plucked the grapes was born in the year of Ox...hehe

One of our teammates ordered a shooter - XXXXX Sucking Cowboy. After we saw his behaviour after the drink, we didn't dare to order the other sexy drinks - Slippery Nipple, Soft Comfortable Screw and Up against the Wall.

We had some escargots. This was the first time I had snail, didn't taste as bad as I thought. But according to others, it was quite plain.

Here are some of the food we ordered...

Places to eat in KL

My first post, but not a very interesting one. I am planning dinner for quite a big group of people (10-15) and can't decide where to go. Anyone has any suggestion?

Place must be:

• Posh cos some gweilos coming also
  
• Expensive (but not overly so lah)
• Characteristic (not keen on hotels, but can also lah if nothing else)
• Good food and hearty meals
  

Someone suggested Telawi Street Bistro, which is a pretty good one really since it's not a very hotel-y place. I wonder if there are other places like that around KL/PJ?
