Mooooving moooooving
Well, it seems that my flat has been sold and we’re moving to another part of the same housing estate. It’s both good and bad. I don’t mind the new environment and the convenience of the local hawker centre in the vicinity where we’re looking to get a new place. However, I do mind the packing and clearing of years of accumulated sentimental crap.
I suppose that’s a good thing though. It’s time to zen-ify my life. It’s fascinating how humans manage to collect so many things. Honestly, I don’t know how the Japanese manage storing everything neatly in cupboards. Sometimes I wish I was that organised.
At any rate, time to seize the chance for some major overhauls.
In other news, I had the chance to try out the latest Japanese fast food place at Far East Plaza by Scotts Road called Mogu Mogu 『もぐもぐ』. I ordered a Curry Katsudon, if I remember correctly, along with miso soup, chawanmushi and a cup of iced green tea. Unfortunately, I didn’t have the presence of mind to eat in, so I did takeaway, which, after some time in a taxi, wasn’t entirely fantastic, but nonetheless quite palatable. It’s been there for a while and I’ve always wanted to try it, except I haven’t had the chance to do so.
What’s cool about the place is the order system where you key in your order via a touch screen and pay through the coin/dollar slots. Take a queue number and wait for your order. It was pretty nice. Very hi-tech and Japanese-y as far as ordering technology goes. There’s even a cute girl in maid costume ready to assist you. For the guys I imagine this must be a great perk.
Mogu Mogu 『もぐもぐ』 at Far East Plaza is worth a shot if you’re into the maid assistant and are interested in reasonably priced Japanese fast-food.
Try it if you haven’t.
