[gurgkle]

Traffic is quite the madness in town.

 

[gaoxing84]

Oh i just found a pretty nice food court in the basement of tangs plaza.
Ok before ppl shoot me and say what atas and stuff......i dun go there all the time but the fishball noodle quite nice and the satay too! Got air con also so comfy (and also quite a lot of pretty girls lah hahahaha).

I actually just drank the satay sauce like that cos its so nutty and thick so shiok! Hahaha.....

Sorry ah OTOT

I know which place you referring to. There is a Penang Fried kuay teow and orh luak stall that seems popular but I tried the orh luak it's not nice. Few stalls away the ling yong hum Jin peng is nice but eat it hot. Next to be not OT just take watch with food lor. Kill 2 birds with 1 stone.

Does Mr Goh sells parts for skX007 or I have to get them myself from dagaz? I feel like modding my skx to look like a mm300.

I prefer to be driven seriously can surf and read, I don't like driving in SG. Start stop start stop and SG drivers got no patience generally.

?? Which version is that? Is it the jeremy clarkson version on topgear?
Well mine obviously can't.

The local versions of cars are all very toned down to reduce OMV and subsequently, ARF. Unless you are willing to pay an insane premium and indent a special version......

Not to mention these "features" are incredibly gimmicky.. Broke a few flowerpots trying out the "Park Assist".

No leh, I love my park assist. It works most of the time. The thing is, you gotta give it enough time to scan the surrounding. If you suddenly decide you want to use it and turn it on last minute, it won't work.

Some sights around NYC...


Madison Square Garden



View of Central Park from my hotel room



Yellow taxis



Columbus Circle



Waiting for a table at Yakitori Totto



And dinner begins

 

[chickenbackside]

Towards the end of dinner, I actually dropped my phone into the bowl of noodles. It died. Hence my pictures stopped at the noodles, haha.

I went to a supermarket after dinner and bought a small pack of rice and a ziplock bag. Placed my phone in the ziplock bag and covered it with rice and left it overnight.

Took it out and switched it on this morning, and voila, it works again...

Emphasis on "most of the time". There's a disclaimer on the CLS350's manual that it doesn't detect all items that are not level with the reverse sensors IIRC, same thing with the S500. Of course if you drive a VW or Audi it may be a whole different system altogether.

I think Yatto has the pre-facelift W221, I don't think the radar cruise control is present in that model.

Wah... Machiam Transformer! The only auto stuff in my car is the gear box, the wipers and the head lights.

Enough of the good food please! My shirt is all wet from my drool!

 

[gumpie]

It's nice to see that everyone seems to be having a great weekend, especially chickenbackside with his envy inducing pics.

Anyway after a busy weekend with my family and playing with my daughter, I finally had the time to change to the sailcloth strap from bradystrap. All that's left to go is the deployant clasp.

CBS all your meals so sumptuous, must cost a bomb...on company's account? Thanks for sharing with us your explorations using your Explorer!

At the rate this continues, I'll be familiar with NY in no time
