Recently I had a business trip to Tampa, Florida, US of A..and man..that is a place really FAAAARRRRRRRRRR from home.
I was away for a total of 7 days and working days were 3 days. I spend 4 days just travelling(flights + waiting time)..WTF!!!
I had to go to Singapore > Frankfurt > New York > Tampa. The stop-overs are because MAS doesn't have an economy class flight from KL to New York on weekends..wtf.
However, I took Singapore Airlines and I must say..it's really good(from flight services to loyalty programme)! Asia airlines CONFIRM beat western airlines anytime.
Today, i'm gonna share on the F&B services on the long trip i've endured. Because the trip is so fucking long, you get to eat alot of meals on the plane..and some of them are actually pretty good! I even took some photos of them and scanned the menu for your perusal. Do enjoy..
When only I can sit Business Class?
We'll begin with Supper [Singapore to Frankfurt]
Grilled beef steak served with roasted assorted vegetables and rosemary flavoured potato.
Can you spot the red wine?
Before touch-down [Singapore to Frankfurt]
Fried noodle with honey glaced roast pork, vegetables and mushroom
Breakfast and Light meal [Frankfurt to New York]
Scrambled egg served with bacon, mushroom and hash brown potato
Chicken supreme served with buttered vegetables and sauteed farfalle pasta
Ice cream

During my short stay on US soil, didn't really get to see nor do much. Took the below photo of the hotel we stayed though..
Damn like those cheap motels we see in the movies right?
Actually the room is not bad la.

If managed to get home before 8pm sure hope she'll be the newscaster for the nite..hehe.
Some facts about her:
Ong holds a Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering (Industrial Engineering) degree from University Technology of Malaysia. “During my industrial training, I realised an engineer’s life was not what I wanted so, I gave newscasting a try. Ong, who hails from Butterworth and has two younger sisters, likes to read, dance and swim, but says she rarely has time for that now.
OMFG...UTM!!! WHICH BATCH?!?
Wah..super cute for a newscaster..syiok!
Wow, i'm amazed..

Hey guys, sorry for the lack of update but since coming back from Finland, i hadn't had anytime to rest!!!
Received an email from Phang yesterday. The title was "Princess Aiko of Japan".
I really like to read Phang's forwarded emails because they are always very delightful/fei/pat!
And so i was reading the content of this mail which "supposedly" contain pictures of the first child of Their Imperial Highnesses Crown Prince Naruhito and Crown Princess Masako. Then half way I thought, "Wait a minute, Princess Aiko is look like this meh?" So as usual, i went to seek my great sifu - Google and "he" kinda shown me some of the Princess Aiko's photos that "he" owns. AHA, i guess Phang's email was fake.
Nevertheless, the girl in the pictures was so CUTE that i selected 3 photos to be shown here. I really like children..especially cute ones! Hahaha..
Here you go..
"Mama, see see, I am doggie.."
"Erm, I'll have what mama is having..it looks yummy!"
"Mama, you sure this is cola? Coz I'm feeling dizzy.."
OMFG, SO CUTE!
