  1. The wine supplier i use actually only supplies to commercial restaurants unfortunately...it is just a old contact so i get to enjoy the perks...not complaining. $15 for a decent Italian red that retails for about $40 to $50 in restaurants. sometimes it is a hit and miss...but i have my usual brands that keep me happy.
  2. yea mussels are crazy cheap. I can't bring myself to order mussels and pay the crazy prices outside. As for wine...maybe you guys can consider purchasing from a wine supplier...that is what we do...we get our wines delivered to us...but then again...we drink a fair bit. LOL
  3. oh! heaps online...shop shop! LOL
  4. I don't think $8 to feed six adults budget meal like the one above is everyone's cup of tea..LOL
  5. here are the ones i have shortlisted...but i am not purchasing anything till i move in... My first choice is the second one...but you might like the first one.
  6. i am starting to think we have VERY similar taste in decor though our theme is quite different. I am eyeing a turquoise rug too!! for the study hahahahahaha
  7. I did a calculation of how much "extra" i spent after we started reno...and it is about 8% thereabouts increase
  8. The signed books that i own...honestly...most of these chefs need to go for penmanship class! LOL
  9. Bummer about the added cost...but really happy that the leak is going to be fixed!! Hurray! (sorry i am a glass is half full sorta gal)
  10. LOL...i am no chef. Here are some of my suggestions...Donna Hay, Donovan Cooke, Matt Preston, Heston Blumenthal, Thomas Keller? btw, love it that Marco is there on the list
  11. Impossible? Your mission impossible blog should be rename Mission Possible! LOL
  12. hahahaha i think there are quite a few followers of taobao kitchen purchases...are you guys trying to say i am very picky??? Starhub installation? What installation are you doing? Wow..you are very fast...at the rate you are going...you might be moving in before us!
  13. Lucky you! We dealt with this ourselves..we relocated it to the tv console downstairs...had to pay for 3m of wiring
  14. my vote is for distressed turquoise
  15. Totally off topic...but what a lovely GR you have there!! From a fellow GR owner
  16. nice...isn't it amzing how different windows (and grilles) can make a place look?
  17. Yea think it is best that you are around...so that you can make sure it is really solved...safety! Carpentry installation has started today. posted on my blog...quite exciting seeing all the pieces being moved into the house...it also looks **** cramped now la! Don't know if I will be on schedule...i think so far so good...fingers crossed, think i will have a better picture middle of this week if i am on schedule. If all goes according to plan...the day we move in is the day granite counter tops will be installed...then all that is left is the glass backsplash. I was just telling my partner...we are very lucky we have a roof over our heads...if we had to do this in three months...we would be DEAD. The stress level would have been through the roof!
  18. They are so pretty! I wish i had space for them...doubt it would fit into my theme though...LOL Do you have timeline how long it is going to take?
  19. Did you try calling up the first company? kick up a stinker...maybe they will come in and do a thorough check as service recovery? on a separate note...saw these and thought of you...need another light? LOL http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.5.w4002-871681326.42.NiwZXa&id=23320368852
