It was tiring after participating the 3.5km charity run in the SGX Bull Charge yesterday.
Thank God, the weather was breezy ^.~ and of course, the view was awesome!
Here were few shots which I took during my run.

I wake up early and get prepared as I have to attend a macaroons baking workshop in the late afternoon today with my colleagues. We arrange to meet for lunch before heading to the workshop. From Yishun MRT station, we notice 3 Chinese word characters namely 天乐里 at the 2nd level of Northpoint Shopping Centre on the opposite road. We are curious and decided to check it out. It is a restaurant name ~ Mayim 天乐里 and it serves Chinese cuisine. They are many choices in their menu and all the dishes look delicious. So we settle our lunch at Mayim.
These are 2 pots of hot tea which we order ~
Shou Mei with Wolfberries (left) & Pu Er with Chrysanthemum (right)
Nice cutlery and pots used ~ woody themed.

This is one of their specialties ~ Homemade Szechuan Cabbage.
There are 11 kinds of sauces and spices blended to preserve the cabbage. It has a mix of sour and spicy taste. A great crunchy appetizer to start off with. It just makes me more hungry and I can't wait to have my other dishes to serve immediately. wahaha ^0^

This is my 1st time seeing Xiao Long Bao serve in aluminum cups ~
this prevents the stock in the dumpling dripping off ^.~
The meat filling is well marinated and very flavorful. No porky smell :P
Fried Dumpling ~ delicious and not very oily.
The sauce is slightly sweet but overall, it's still good. The fritters are crispy.
Unlike some fritters which I tried, they are not crispy at all and too much dough.

Chinese cabbage simmered with butter and milk sauce and tops with minced ham. Well, I don't really enjoy this dish as the milky/buttery flavor is just too much. But the cabbage is simmered till very soft.
Yummylicious Fried Shrimp coated with Mayonnaise Sauce ^-^
Steam Cod Fish in light soya sauce with red chilli and pickled veg
Mayim has another outlet at West Mall, Bukit Batok #02-04 and heard it can be crowded at times. Therefore, it is advisable to make reservation in advance.
