finally got down to bringing xiao bai for almost due servicing and also, to fix the wheel bearing problem before baby's arrival. while waiting, we decided to take a walk from xin ming to upper thomson for our brunch. dear was torn between prata, his all-time favourite and old school delights, for the mee siam. he chose the latter in the end as it has been eons since he last visited this old friend's shop. it was a pity that we did not see olivia in person. thank you for the call and we will arrange for a meet-up when baby is here.
