Aligning... 0.9999994%

OooOoo... Christmas came early... my mummy bought me a watch on Tuesday!

There was this uber cool Christmas sale @ City Chain. For those who want to get a watch or are intending to get one for a friend, do visit City Chain with discounts up to erhmz... I'm not sure how many %... I think the highest I saw was 50%.

There are also selected watches which are sold for more than 50% discount, and unlike sales where selected items are limited, there is actually a wide variety of watches to choose from this category. Like my watch from Solvil et Titus for S$129...


Yupz... I patronized the CityChain branch located @ the new extension of Northpoint in Yishun.

Other branches:

A note of advice... apparently... different citychain stores seem to release different models of watches... differentiation to prevent store cannibalism arh? Business students...? Econs peeps?

Yesterday, I wanted to put in a new battery for a watch which was given to my dad by my uncle. So my mum and I decided to go to the CityChain store @ Compasspoint in Sengkang. The sale has drawn large crowds to the store and I had to go over to Vincent Watches to change the battery instead.

Anyways... when I was pressing my nose against the glass windows showcasing the watches @ CityChain, I realised some of the models present in the Sengkang branch were not present in the Yishun branch.

I saw a few other watches which were really nice and resonably priced, but considering the fact that my watch was a gift from my mun, nothing comes close to beats it even if it's from Tissot or Tag Heuer... MUAHAUHA.

After which, my mum and I went to have lunch @ Curry-San. It is a japanese fast food chain or sorts and I have been thinking of trying out the dishes there, especially my favourite Katsu Curry Chicken!! My mum had teriyaki chicken don... and our review of the chain...

1/2 stars out for 5 stars

Haha, the half star was given because their service quality was really good. This old lady dropped one of our potato wedges and returned with 2 pieces in return. The cashier also did a good job in recommending certain dishes to us and offering us options which were more value-for-$$.

The Katsu curry was really terrible, the sauce... ultra saltish with a slight tinge of spicy-ness. The rice was hard to chew and the potato wedges we ordered were placed in a weird and small cupcake holder and were over-spilling.

My mum's teriyaki chicken mini don was served in a bowl but they did not offer chopsticks. My mum had to use a pair of spoon and fork to navigate through the small bowl.

To be fair, I think it's because my mum ordered a mini don, that's why her meal came in a small bowl. Also, I didn't exactly approach the staff for a pair of chopsticks, they might have had a pair of chopsticks somewhere for my mum but we were simply too lazy to request for a pair.

Ok, enough ranting... Will blog again another day... Haha...
