Miss Dount,

"IDBA" is an extremely loose/random/spontaneous, self-moderated, non-profit, non-political organization, driven by good appetite, taste of food, colorful culture behind each cuisine and a genuine hatred toward the loneliness during the dinner.

Extremely pleasant to see David set up this Facebook thing, which means Lifetraveler will keep traveling sooner or later, but IDBA will stay. Wonderful dinners filled with laughter will stay.

So,

bon appetite!!

I don't mind dinner, but I am still working at 7:30pm, most likely will only finish by 8pm. Thus, I won't be able to make it so early. :wink:

Sorry, I can't promise my time tomolo. Anyway, both places are 'far' for me to rush there, even if I can make it.

No 7. Herbal Mutton Soup @ Chin Chin, Purvis Street, near Raffles Hotel? You can go ahead with it & SMS me the outcome. I will try to catch u if I can leave early. :roll:

Or we can meet for some late nite dinner after I finish work, kick back and relax. But it will be a last min thing if you don't mind. Ops, I lost your no. So, sms me. :P

No 9. Red Star -- The last time I went there was 3 years ago, standard has dropped alot & prices has shot up, atmosphere is there tho. :wink:

Hi, Lifetraveler is going back to US tomorrow. Singapore is great. Dinner buddies are awesome. Will be back.

Remember to reward yourself with good dinner and great friendship now and then. Stay away from instant noodle and junk food. :-)

Cheers,
