marmalade pantry + robert timms + jacky cheung



Lunch at marmalade pantry at ion. Their desserts looked too good, so we shared a main, crabmeat linguini and a plate of scones.



Din look appetizing when the crabmeat linguini was served. It just looked like any normal tomato based pasta. After the first spoonful, hmm, it was quite unusual, unexpected. Linguini was mixed with thin shreds of crabmeat in each mouthful. It was tasty and full of flavors. Mixed with some pine nuts, it was even better.



Scones were served hot. They smelt damn good! I wanted to wait for the pasta first before having the scones but sis couldn't resist. She had one as an appetizer. She was "hmmming" away while I resisted and took the biscuit at the sides first. They were already tasty on it's own but paired with clotted cream and jam, they were even tastier. Scones were not hot after I had my mains, but they were still very good. We had to use our hands as the scones broke into crumbles once you cut with the knife. No way for both of us to act demure.



Yums! We both agreed that it is even better than those highly raved scones at regent tea lounge.

As we finished our lunch at 3pm, there is no space for our tummy to have a proper dinner before the concert. So we shopped around and had a break at 6plus.  Sis read that Robert timms coffee were highly recommended. So we went for coffee and shared a plate of cheesy Bolognaise crisscut fries.





Ordered piccolo latte to go with it. A bit weird to pair coffee with fries, but there is really no space for desserts at all. Left orchard at 730 to go to the Jacky cheung's concert at indoor stadium! Super excited as I can't remember the last time I went for a concert.

学友!!

Us together at the concert.



Despite no photo taking and videography, many people were still using their handphones or camera to video record the songs. Me and my sis also follow suit for some of the songs.



It was really a great concert. 3hrs and 20mins of nonstop singing from the 歌神. Instead of a normal concert style, he started with his own created musical, then to normal concert songs, with an animation of his life since young somewhere in the middle. Really really loved his voice. Will be looking forward to the next concert!
