FUKEPAIKE: February 2007

LG KG800 chocolate phone

Just for your info, the chocolate phone from LG that 异客 is holding actually has a chocolate scent. But too bad it is only available in Korea.

Quotes from some websites:

"The real place where this beauty gets its name is from the fact that in the Korean market where this baby was pioneered, it has a scent of chocolate. Yes, you heard us right - the phone smells of chocolate."

"So, how did this black, not brown, phone earn its name Chocolate? In the Korean market, where this model was pioneered and debuted, the phone was made to smell of – you guessed it – chocolate. The name stuck as did the scented design. Apparently LG didn't like the competition between cell phones and chocolate so they decided to double-team their potential customers by combining the two"

"Oh and incase your wondering NO it doesnt smell of chocolate they are only available in korea, and since found out they are releasing the white chocolate too. "

Let's hope S'pore can get the white chocolate edition that smells. Think they are also releasing a pink one with lavender scent.

Dinner @ Borsch Steakhouse

The fukepaike gang broke free from our busy schedules to meet up at Serangoon Gardens on Sunday to have a feast at Borsch.

Nothing much to talk about in terms of the exterior of the restaurant, quite the same as the inside. The restaurant looks rather old already. Even though it is a 'Russian' restaurant, the settings (many pictures of horses) and ambience have no link to Russia at all. (maybe except for the menu: borsch soup and shashlik- a type of russian kebab) The other food sounds local and western. What worried us was the thought of KGBs hiding somewhere in the restaurant. haha...

There's 3 types of set dinner: the normal dinner set, executive dinner set and supreme dinner set. All of us ordered the normal set , except for me, I only ordered dessert.

The wait for the food was exceptionally long but we killed time by talking crap and crap.

1st, the appetizer - shrimp salad or egg with caviar.

then the soup - mushroom soup (is it?) or borsch special soup

next the main course: got some variety but most of us chose steak. Isaac aka Qm took chicken

followed by dessert of peach ice-cream or pancake

all sets comes with drinks too!

=$13.80 (no service charge!)

(hmm... did not take photos of those food)
