toilet bowls and more toilet bowls!

Today is the day for checking out our toiletries and kitchen accessories. Since we are meeting our co-designer at 2pm, we went for lunch at Raffles City.





Had lunch at Soup Spoon. I have not visited Soup Spoon for 2 years! The last time I had soup there was before the renovation of the basement level of Raffles City. But the soup still taste superb, and they have more choices now too! I had my favourite Mushroom Stroganoff, ordered Tokyo Chicken Stew for Hao and spicy wedges to share. Yummy!









Met our co-designer at Lavender MRT. Coz we did not check out the shops ourselves before today, we do not know much and also have not come up with a budget. He brought us to xin xiang jun to check out everything first. Gosh! We spent almost 3 hours there looking at toilet bowls, washbasin, taps, shower, cooker and hob, kitchen sink, etc. I guess the salesgirl was pissed off coz we walked off with only a quotation and no confirmation of any items. Heh, who cares since this was the first shop we went to. He also brought us to smaller shops becoz it may be cheaper. But he let us take our time to slowly choose and compare prices from different shops before making a decision. At the end of the day, the only thing that we can almost confirm is our toilet bowl. We will either be getting American Standard or TOTO brand. He also brought us to the tile shop to show us the tiles that our designer had chosen for us.







Super tired and hungry after looking at so many toiletries. Had dinner at Shaw Towers. We went to a pasta cafe, Creation. My sis and cousin know which one I'm talking about but for those of you who do not know, check this cafe out. The pasta is delicious and it is at an economical price! What is best is that they do not charge for service and GST. The queue was very long when we reach there at 6 plus. We both ordered set dinner, at only $14.90, which comes with soup, drink and dessert. I had Salmon Alfredo and Hao had Spicy Seafood Crabmeat. Yummy!





I can say that this is the first time that I'm tired of shopping! My eyes really crossed when we looked at so many different types of toilet bowls and toilet accessories. And this is only our first trip for our toilets. After Hao finished his research from the forum, there will still be more trips to check out the highly recommended shops, for toilet bowls, kitchen accessories, electronics, lightings, etc. I can say that it is fun since it is our first time shopping and deciding for stuffs for our home together but Gosh! It's tiring!
