“No boss, never bluff you one, the cup is so small only”

I believe I’m quite a handy cook, and tonight, I made these dishes:
Mr Miyagi’s Anyhowly Dinner Menu:
Bruschetta ala Saw How It […]
There’s a little Japanese restaurant on Sentosa whose name is an institution in Singapore, and we were fortunate enough to be invited there to eat ourselves to death last Saturday night.
It was by far the best Japanese food I have ever tasted in my life. I know Japanese food is supposed […]
Some of the fake fur used in clothing isn’t synthetic, and actually contains dog hair.
