more late nights
--
i think i'm becoming nocturnal.
anyway. after a round of drinks at Acid Bar ( where i learnt that the Mojito is actually pronounced as Mo-Hee-Toh , just like how Jose is prounounced as Ho-Seh ) , T and i headed to the new watering hole which opened recently amidst much hoo-ha ( my my they even released an album in conjuction with their opening ) , the uber-cool Balconey at the Heeren shops.
yeah we're a pretentious duo. lol.
decor-wise , nothing much to shout about. i was aghast when i flipped open the drinks menu to find sheets of dog-eared and stained paper printed with cheap blotchy ink. i dunno leh , maybe i was really expecting too much huh. their drink list was extensive though , which was good but i didn't have the chance to try it. price-wise , quite standard lah , $12 for housepours i think.
worse of all they were actually playing the RADIO. actually the sound quality was rather good and i felt at least the music was commendable until i heard the commercials and i couldnt help but mouth the "what the fuck" to T.
seriously , which reputable place does that ?! i don't care if the station of choice's the station du jour , which is Lush 99.5 , because even the most ah mao ah kow place i've been to ( some sleazy bar in Boat Quay ) has the cow sense to spin songs from a CD ( burned but hey brownie points for effort )
its a cardinal sin lah. unforgivable.
we left shortly after without ordering anything. but the place's open 24 hours la. if im not wrong they're the first licenced bar/restaurent be open 24/7.
if you like music along the lines of cafe del mar , i'd seriously recommend Alley bar @ Peranakan place or Sound Bar @ Liquid room.
okay i'm so bloody tired. fun with dick and jane is a borefest , catch it at your own risk.
bye now and happy CNY y'all !
