Originally I had a lunch appointment with 2 of my long timed MJ Kakis – Madeline & Linda. However, in the morning I received a message from Mag that her little girl was down and she can't make it for the lunch. So we decided to postpone it till next chance.
As we were corresponding via SMS, I did a quick check with Linda if she is an OG Card Holder and BINGO!! She is one. I had the intention to go OG to get May a Christmas Gift since I saw the advertisement on Christmas Eve Straits Times.
Finally, I arranged to meet Linda at OG Albert Complex after my work. She was on Boxing Day off. We had a quick lunch at Rochor Centre. As we walked passed some of the streets stalls, I was so surprised that Chinese New Year goodies are up for sale already. We started our shopping after a good lunch of the famous 肉脞面。
I bought the Thermal pot that was on special price for OG Member. It was almost 50% discount. All these while, I know that May is very keen to get herself a thermal pot as she love to cook. When I saw her at the BBQ gathering, she even commented that her electricity bills are soaring because she is making more soups nowadays. I know this thermal pot will be a very ideal Christmas gift for her. Although it is not one of those branded one, I had an ex-colleague who had used it and mentioned that it's of very good quality and work efficiently.
(Ahem...secretly I am also hoping by giving May this gift, we will get to enjoy one of her special dish – 猪脚醋. (Adrian loves this dish...: P )
After a good round of purchase, we had dessert at one of the shop nearby. Linda is a regular to this OG and she knows the surrounding very well. She even recommended me where to get the Chinese New Year stuff... : )
