July Rebel: Pink Dot 2011 @ Hong Lim Park

I was lucky to find out that my sec school classmate, Grace was going to the Pink Dot event this year and her friend Serene. We met up at Fairprice TPY HDB Hub to get some snacks and headed to Hong Lim Park.

Upon our arrival we were greeted by greenery and a spread of wholesome pink which makes the mood so cheerful and easy. We were early, very early in fact, but there were picnic mats lying around and people already chilling around.

Free fan that cheers you up in the humid weather.

I don't know much about dogs, but I really love this one a spot that was pretty near to us. So lovely :)

Free badges! Pin on your love!

More picnic mats and people building up!

Pretending to be a geisha?

Love my blue bag in the sea of pink. :)

Spot Ryan Reynolds!

Let's gather to form the dot!

The dot grew from 4k last year to 10k+ this year! It's not a dot anymore! Albeit the humid weather, I love that I was part of the event. The support for the freedom to love and the acceptance of LGBT in our society :)

After we departed from Hong Lim Park, Grace brought us to her uncle's place for Zha Jiang Mian which I really fancy! The shop was decked out with tourist photos grinning from ear to ear just like the la mian when stretched from one end to another. :)

I think the Suan La Tang was divine, a great starter which even reminds me of a shark's fin soup.

The Zha Jiang Mian was defnitely not the kind that shocked me when I had it in my poly foodcourt. It was the right amount of tastefulness and chewiness with an appropriate feast of mince meat that went so well with the handmade noodle.

Grace wanted to introduce us to her favourite almond dessert but it was not available that day. We ordered the water chestnut dessert instead and it taste so unique and savoury. I have never had something like that before. I fell in love with it. Haas..
