Azabu Sabo (Black Sesame)

After Miss Clarity, Ice Cream from Azabu Sabo was next. Black Sesame has many health benefits, but thats no the reason why i eat this ice cream... (anyway i was not the one who ate it... my gf ate most of it...=P). Cos im sure this cup of ice cream is loaded with a lot of sugar... bad bad stuffs... but glad its a small cup... always dislike things in large quantity.


Black sesame seeds are good for the kidney and liver, and are a good source of calcium. It also have high amounts of protein, iron, magnesium and are also a good source of essential fatty acids (EFA).

Verdict: Its nice... once a blue moon indulgence is alright!

After that, took a walk to Raffles Hotel and saw something interesting! hohoho... will post up soon! :)

Miss Clarity Cafe @ Purvis

Miss Clarity Cafe

The word 'miss' might turn some guys off, thinking that this cafe is for all-girls gathering... but you are absolutely not right! When I got there, there was a good mix of both sexes, so pls... dun be put off by the name, and the pinkish decor... what matters is the food right?

click on the picture to visit their website and take a look at their menu, as my pictures does not do them justice due to the poor lighting in the cafe.

Fish Cordon Bleu
oven-baked crispy breaded fish fillet sandwiching ham & melted cheese

I love this! Generous amount of fish, 2 thick chunks... and the interior is still tender.
Highly recommended!

Reduce your damage: remove the Tartar sauce

Chicken Ballotine - $8.80
oven-baked chicken thigh stuffed with fresh shitake mushroom, drenched with mushroom sauce

The Shitake mushroom was quite tasteless, but there's a lot of it stuffed inside. this dish is oven-baked, so a better choice as compared to the one up there.

Reduce your damage: remove the chicken skin

On top of that, they serve you a jug of ice water at no extra cost, No GST and No Service Charge! One more thing I love is there is no french fries! I detest fries, and im glad by default they gave boiled veg and potatoes...
french fries lovers... top up $1!
=)

Verdict: Will definitely go back again.

Training March 28

Ran 5k today... a fun one but real demanding one.

Original intent was to HIIT at the stadium, but some silly school have Sports Day... So I change my training from HIIT to a very fun training program.

The plan was to run around my estate and whenever i bypass a fitness station, I will do some static exercises + rope jumping (I brought along a rope), then continue my run. I have absolutely no idea how many fitness stations there will be... and gosh... there was 4! I was deadbeat by the time i reached the fourth, hoping there's no fifth... and I'm glad there isn't any!

All in all

All my runs added up to 5k
Chinups (over-graft and under-graft) Leg Raise (Horizontal + Vertical)
Rope Jumping 150 reps per station (Fast)
Push Ups (Clenched and Normal)
Body Weight Squats
Step Ups
Crunches
Dips

"Training need not be mundane and boring, be as creative as you can and add variations to make your training program a Fun and Enjoyable one"

Why you should not eat too much Mcdonalds...

now... tell me, are you still loving it?

CONFESSIONS OF A CORPORATE CLOWN

FORMER RONALD McDONALD NOW VEGETARIAN ACTIVIST

Summer/Fall 1990

Dear Concerned Citizen,

For almost two years I went against everything I ever believed in by selling out to the McDonald's corporate juggernaut by playing RONALD McDONALD to thousands of innocent, trusting children.

Prior to that, I am sorry to say, I also portrayed THE MARVELLOUS MAGICAL BURGER KING in the Northeastern United States doing a children's magic show promoting the glories of meat eating for the Burger King Corporation.

Ten years later, I now realize I have a debt to parents and children everywhere to try and present the truth about the wonderful vegetarian lifestyle to which I owe so much. Toward that end I have developed a brand new show to gently educate kids about their true relationship to the environment, their animal friends, and each other, as neighbours on a dreadfully victimized over-burdened planet.

This show (complete with music, magic and fun) is my way of saying sorry for selling out so blatantly to concerns who make their millions off the murder of countless animals and the exploitation of children for their own ends. Although moderate expenses are expected from sponsors, this is a not-for-profit scheme centered on showing young people the peaceful alternatives of the natural, healthful, vegetarian way of life.

Peace & Love,
GEOFFREY GIULIANO
