57th Solo : Sin-Dme-Iah-Sin (Houston Day #2)

greetings from Houston! :'>


it's gonna be an eventful day and i'm all ready to go shopping!
in short, itinerary will be IHOP - Katy Mills - Houston Premium Outlets - La Fisherman.


hehe, first to be down, waiting for the rest.


when all were gathered, we went for breakfast tgt.

my first try at IHOP.

never knew what IHOP stands for until Captain Michael told me!
it's actually stands for International House Of Pancakes!


no wonder everyone says must try their pancakes!

borrowed their food for pic!

  
and now, one of myself and my order.


i ordered the Strawberry Banana Pancakes.
yes, drizzle the maple syrup on those fluffy pancakes please! :'>

aft filling our tummies, we're ready to go shopping!

first stop --- Katy Mills.


it's an indoors outlet shopping mall!


looking at the directory, see what brands they've got here.
arranged a time to meet back, then went separate ways!


so awesome to shop when there's no crowd!

this is their food court.
nobody at all!


spent about 2 hrs there, then made our way to Houston Premium Outlets.


looked at the directory to see where i should start first.
as usual, we arranged a time to meet before going our separate ways.


spotted F21 right behind the directory, so i decided to go take a look first! :D


hmm... quite a disappointment.
nothing much :/

took a copy of the shopper's guide to facilitate my movement around.


so shiok to shop coz it's quite empty!


except for the fact that it's summer in Houston and the sun was scorching hot! :/


met up and deposited our loots in the car.

Tara, Celest and I needed more time, so we cont'd shopping and arranged for a 2nd timing to meet while Xuan drove the rest to walmart.


again, first to reach our 2nd meeting time.

loots aft 2nd round of shopping!


i'm bringing some love home! :'>


loaded everything up in the car boot and as expected it's filled to the brim!


enough of shopping.

sun was starting to set.

Xuan drove us to the dinner place.

they said previously, it was called Boiling Crab.
now, it's renamed La Fisherman.


my first time trying.


this is the interior of the restaurant.


menu on the wall.


 otherwise, they also have laminated ones on our table.


everyone has a bib.


just so we won't dirty our clothes while eating!
later you'll know why!


i'm ready! :'>


they ordered. i just eat.
everything fried! omg, how to lose weight like that, you tell me!


soft shell crab.


sweet potato fries! 
hehe, my favourite!


calamari rings.


dig in!


then came the King Crab Leg.
i don't eat, but calls for a pic!


then came fried chicken.


yes, don't have proper plates or bowls.

the crab legs and prawns that we ordered were just served to us in plastic bags.


and the table is our plate. lol.

everything, on the table.



and this is aft we slurp up everything!

lol, looked so unglam and all, but that's how it is when dining at La Fisherman!
now you know why we need the bib!


wet tissue and a mint for each customer at the end of our meal.
so alike Fish and Co.


sigh... spent a bomb on food today :/

and that was my day in Houston before Xuan drove us to Walgreens for grocery shopping and later back to the hotel.

thanks for driving us around, Xuan!

bumped into Elwy and her batchgirl at the lobby when we reached the hotel.

went to her room for chit-chat session since my loved ones back in Singapore were all asleep then.

a pic of my loots from the outlets before returning to my room! haha, heavy!


oh yes, and cereals in the States can be so cheap compared to those in Sg!

i bought these at only 1.99usd each!


ok goodnight!

i'm going to sleep now and prepare my body for some last min shopping at the Galleria tmr!

on a side note, i'm so excited for biujie coz she's gonna give birth any time from now till fri!
