Some weeks back, I brought Serene Unnie to the Oyster Frenzy at Sakura International Buffet. Being a oyster lover, it a good choice to bring her along. The usual oysters we see at other buffet lines are all ready-shucked and left it in the open on ice. These oyster here are freshly shucked upon request. I had more than what I usually eat, because its so fresh and plump.

Proud to say I REALLY LOVE GINGER. Be it eaten raw or in the form of a drink. Even before Gingen sent me these, I have tried everything because everyday after lunch in the office, I will make myself a cup of ginger drink, to get rid of all bloatedness.
