Summer construction season is in full swing, yet it seems that neither Mother Nature - nor the spirits of employment - got the memo. The search for a position providing societal benefit ensues, as do sporadic periods of frigidity and heavy downpours.
​As one jacket is returned to the closet, another must be summoned to accommodate the ever-indecisive climatic conditions.
​1) Kung Fu Tea opened at Pacific Mall, and on the counter was a fake Brown.

2) The prominent sakura theme resurfaces every spring.
3) Dak Lak is a necessary (caffeinated) evil during P-Mall runs

4) Katsuya
It's been a "hot minute" since my last visit, for the post-paintball excursion in December is recalled with winter coats in tow.
Picture
​Since then, the Brick Cheese Katsu - a fusion formula employing a thick, stringy slab of mozzarella - had been added to the roster of non-spicy katsu dishes. A Rosé Katsu is also anticipated in the upcoming months.

​The restaurant's policies have seemingly also undergone some changes: unlimited rice refills no longer exist, and 5% discounts are now offered with cash payments.

​The Brick Katsu was delicious, and not the least bit greasy. That said, it did feel heavy after a few bites; the Tako Wasabi was the ideal ally to negate those effects though.

5) The K-Beauty inventory was well overdue for a restock. With GOT7's IT'sSKIN sheet masks finally depleted (and the shopping centre's official retailer shuttered), I turned to orangecane's suggestion of Mediheal.
Picture
​A 20% off storewide discount meant foraying into foreign territory - aka Mediheal x BT21 masks.

6) Thank you, Rouge Sale, for enabling me to test out the Seaglass series. One can only pray that it fares equally to VDL's limited edition Glim and Glow collection from last summer.
​7) The Journey to Health continues with a Kale/Mango/Banana Soy Smoothie to curb afternoon cravings.
​8) Vietnamese coffee packets straight from the source.

9) Taking advantage of the final day of my Hub pass with a dual climbing-and-cardio session, which was then succeeded by a Vanilla Cone.

​Shedding my only layer of hand protection immediately led to sore, swollen hands, peeling skin, and the re-formation of calluses that I had naively believed to have vanished.
​10) Back to the drawing board for Matcha White Chocolate Chip Cookies! It's been a month-long break of cake indulgence.
​11) Trying out some of the Sulwhasoo samples the ARITAUM sales rep had been aggressively advertising.

​12) Guinness indeed lived up to its reputation of a chocolatey palette.
​13) Errand-running visuals Feat. a Chocolate Chunk Cookie from Timmies. (The deed had been done out of concern for economics, not for quality.)

Can I just say that I'm not looking forward to Keep Spinning ticket sales in any way, shape, or form? I hereby confirm SubK's dwindling capacity to handle cross-border tours with such a compact team.
