Sushi Kuu
I met up with C for lunch at Sushi Kuu today.
The food are not priced cheaply. But I will definitely patronize this place rather than Tatsuya now because my last visit to Tatsuya was disappointing. Look at my assorted seafood on sashimi rice set lunch. Simply delish! And the sashimi all tasted so fresh.
Each set comes with miso soup, udon and ice-cream.

Lunch at Ju Shin Jung
It seemed only logical that we head next door to Ju Shin Jung Guillemard for lunch after the tedious wall climbing activity. And the kids were only happy to be greeted by 2 pools of balls once we entered the restaurant.
I've always enjoyed Korean side dishes (banchan). I can just eat them as my main meal!
We ordered their spicy bbq pork to share. While the girls had a bowl of noodles in clear broth each.

I like that this branch is huge and spacious, and that there is a play room to entertain the kids while they wait for their food. On the downside however, they do not finish their food as they are too eager to run off to play at the playroom!

Onsight Climbing Gym
Today's play date was hard work for the kids. They went wall climbing! Yup, Kae's first official wall climbing experience was at Onsight Climbing Gym.
She was apprehensive at first, but soon learnt how to climb with the correct technique and overcame her fears and doubts to climb to the top of the wall by herself. Kudos!
This is Kae and Kayla trying to climb up together.
Even Mummy P and Mummy S (together with elder daughter K) tried the sport.
The 2 tigresses only made it to the smaller and easy boulders.
The 3 Ks reunited!

Cycling Date and Crab in da Bag
We met up with Kae's friends and families for a day out at East Coast Park, mainly for cycling and dinner at Crab in da Bag. The 3 girls, Kae, Kayenne and Kadence were cycling for their lives!
And the girls decided to be the greater sex and managed to climb onto the tree. The boys took on a shorter tree. Hah.
Our group picture!
I've always wanted to try out Crab in da Bag ever since I've eaten at Cajun Kings and Dancing Crab. I remember that Crab in da Bag was always empty every time we walked past when they just opened. But now, it is almost impossible to get seats via walk in. Please call and make reservations in advance!
One reason for eating here with kids versus at Cajun Kings is that they have a kid's menu here, mainly pasta with sausages and corn cooked together, and served with a desert and drink. Note that we have to ask the staff for forks for the kids to eat their food with. Yup, straight from the plastic bag!
Their chicken wings were delicious, their fries were average.
And then came the highlight of the evening: the Caboodle Boil. We ordered the gigantic pot which is good for 6 to 8 pax (or so they say). I think for a good feast, it is just nice for 6 people to share. Everything is sweet and fresh, yes, especially their lobsters and crabs. If not for the hefty price tag, I don't mind coming here again for seafood! With orders of a gigantic pot, 5-6 kiddie's bags, 2 towers of beer, some sides of chicken wings and french fries, the total bill came up to about $200 for each of the 4 families.
And the crab (or lobster) came out for a special surprise appearance to sing a birthday song for the surprised birthday boy.

Little Wimbly Lu
Imagine our surprise when we chanced upon the newly opened Little Wimbly Lu. It was around 9 plus and it was full house in the smaller sister shop of Wimbly Lu. So when we saw that a group of people were about to leave, we went in immediately and got the seats.
The apple crumble and the chocolate tart were good, but I find that the waffles we had that night were not up to their usual standard as at Wimbly Lu. The waffles, like what G said, tasted like instant/frozen waffles. Seriously. Or maybe they've made the waffles even before they received the orders. I don't know. I only know I will probably stick to their Jalan Riang outlet if I have a choice.

Cool De Sac
We met up with Kae's BFF for a play date today. At none other than the newly opened Cool De Sac located within Suntec City. What I like about this place is that they offer unlimited playtime per admission, so we can stay there the whole day with a one time payment. Also, please note that American Express card members enjoy a 15% discount on admission with the American Express cards till 31st December 2014. Details can be found here.
The girls had the most fun at the Backstage Area, where they queued very patiently for their tattoos and face painting.
This was also the first time I could let BOTH girls run around freely with their friends without having to keep a tight watch. Yes, Kerri doesn't need me to be around her anymore!
And guess who we saw while playing? The adorable Loh sisters!
The only complaint I have about this place is that there are no in house washrooms. So when the girls do need the washrooms, we have to walk right out into the shopping mall, and the washrooms are not exactly near. Other than this, I love the place. Food and beverages are good, served from Bistro Cool (which is part of Cool De Sac) just next door. It can get really crowded though from lunch time, so better head there before 12pm if you are making a trip down. One of the nicer indoor play areas for kids in town. I will definitely bring the girls back for more fun!
