Friday night and no dinner at home. Sounds like a chance for the siblings to go out for some food :D
On Brother's recommendation, we tried Broadway Claypot Rice 百乐匯砂煲饭 at Coffee City, a kopitiam at Ang Mo Kio Central Blk 728. The last time I had claypot rice was, erm, 11 years ago at Smith Street Food Centre?! It was that time that I realized why I never appreciated claypot rice - because nobody gave me the charred bits!! That's da star!
We snagged a table outside, away from the smoky and overcrowded interior. So cool and airy, why everybody wanna squeeze inside?
We ordered some zichar dishes from another stall, including our favorite hotplate tofu~ Drinks from the drinks stall. Love our kopitiams!
The claypot rice is indeed good! Flavorful with a hint of smokiness, enough ingredients to go with the rice, bits of salted fish as a trophy for the lucky ones. Guess nobody but me loves the charred bits. So fragrant and crispy! Why they don't like? It's carcinogenic, but once in a while mah!
Stuffed!

Team Outing + 2X Buffets
O my we are actually gonna do something very different for our team gathering!
First, buffet lunch at the good old Penang Place, which has moved from IBP to the more accessible Fusionopolis. I thought Meritus Mandarin is the furthest we will ever venture. Now here's a new record!
Partly because there's a part 2 of the day... bowling at SuperBowl SAFRA Mount Faber later. Meaning no need to go back to work yay! Which also means I should not skip it!! I'm totally coming!

安堂机器人
The 2013 Takuya Kimura dorama:
Seriously?! His doramas are getting from bad to worse. It's somewhat like Terminator - sending a lousy android from the future to protect somebody from the past. And the antagonist's robot is, well, you have guessed it, a more advanced model.
Futuristic sci-fi show mah, need special effects. But few have the privilege of mega budgets like Hollywood television series. As such, the effects fall short of expectations (that were elevated to stratospheric levels, no thanks to Hollywood).
Couldn't feel any chemistry between Kimura and Koh Shibasaki. I wonder if it's my imagination, but I thought Shibasaki's acting was... horrendous?!
OMG... can I have something better next year?

Argh My Variable Bonus!
NOT HAPPY! The December variable bonus is based on my salary on 1 Dec, meaning I don't get the full month due to the no pay leave. Although I refunded some of my no-pay leave later, my bonus didn't get refunded.
Must think of how to prevent this next year.
