Yvonne is Kiyomi :)

Dear all, Happy April. It has been some time since my last update.

But this post will definitely surprise you. OK. By reading the title itself, you might guess what am I going to do. YUP. I can't believe this. I did a Kiyomi 's video..... (I am not sure whether I spell it correctly, but you might have seen lots of posts of the song on fb) 

OK. The reason behind this is dar asked me to do this as a punishment. Hahaz. I know it sounds crazy, but dar seldom ask for something, so....  I must fulfill his wish and also preventing him from stalking on other cute Korean girls' Kiyomi video.

Here goes the translation from Guimara Manga and you will know how sweet the lyrics are:


* Title of the song: 귀요미송 (Kiyomi Song / Cutie Song)- Singer: 하리 (Hari)* 귀요미 (Kiyomi / Gwiyomi / Kwiyomi) is a Korean internet slang used to refer to somebody cute.
Don't look at other girls
No matter what they sayYou're mine (You're mine), Don't even talk to other girls, I'm yours (I'm yours), Please pinky promise me, That you'll never leave me alone
1 plus 1 equals Kiyomi2 plus 2 equals Kiyomi3 plus 3 equals KiyomiKi- Ki- Kiyomi, Ki- Ki- Kiyomi4 plus 4 equals Kiyomi too5 plus 5 equals Kiyomi too6 plus 6 equals chu chu chu chu chu chu KiyomiI'm Kiyomi

Short North- North Market & Zen Cha

Halo. Before this, I never know Columbus has a pasar pagi or pasar malam and the North Market turns out to be the classy and super clean market where you can eat at each stall and buy some fresh produce and groceries.

Short North 

North Market is located along high street but it is a lower height building so you may not spot it easily.
Anyway you can take Cota bus #2 and stop at Swan Street.
Visit the incredible place with 35 distinct personalities, from Asian foods to cookies, chocolates, breads, Jeni's icecream, pastas, coffees and lots more. You can definitely go there for lunch, I was too full this time so I just tried on some little dessert.

The interior design which makes you feel homey

We stroll around and look at some food stalls. Let the foods talk. hehe.

Sample foods of Pastaria and they make their own pasta.
They look good and I must try them on the next visit. 

We tried this- the Belgium Waffle.

The good thing about North Market is that there are a lot of food samples.  (Taste for free~ hehe)
It's crispier than other waffles that I had before. 

We had chocolate and cream on it but it is pricey , costs around $5. 

We bought this $1 Rainbow popcorn and we had lots of fun popping it at home. ( share it on the next blog maybe)
Highly recommend everyone to get this. ^ ^ 

The MUST try : Salty Caramel Jeni's Icecream. 

Fresh produce

However, there is limited space to dine at the food stall. Hope they have more dining area in the future. From what I noticed, each stall may only occupy like 4-5 people. It was a fun experience with some good friends around. :)   I enjoyed it . 

OK. Next stop on High is Zen Cha Tea Salon. I am not really a great fans of bubble tea. But I did not have it for quite some time, so I gave it a try and it turns out great. It does not taste artificial like the one that we usually get in Pasar Malam, it is truly Passion fruit + green tea + milk. Really good combination with the chewy 珍珠 too - (is it call bubbles in English? hahaz. I have no idea. Do you? )You get the option to choose the flavor, tea and milk, make your own combination .

You get to smell the tea leafs and see which one you prefer. 

My cup of passion fruit bubble tea. (good!) 

The scary monster with all the 珍珠 on his teeth... >.< 

Group photo with a cup of tea... ^ ^ 

I LOVE OUTING WITH MY SWEET FRIENDS.!

German Village

It's spring break, wohoo! It should be warm, but it was not. Anyway I decided to stay at Columbus and enjoy the week. I had a wonderful time, strolling around the city with friends. p.s. my friend- Siew Lee Lee came over to visit me ^ ^ We experience a different neighborhood of Columbus- German Village. I really recommend this place, it's really a relaxing neighborhood with good foods. We start off our day trip by taking COTA bus #8 which does not require any exchange of bus and it drops us right in front of the park in German Village.

The first stop : Schiller Park
Know more about it !

The Umbrella Girl being replaced after a mysterious disappearance.

Out of no where- spring turns into winter, snows heavily. 

"Bronze statue of German poet Schiller which had been cast in Germany
and transported free of charge across the Atlantic."

I want to come again when the flowers blossom. 

Walk to the next stop.

When there's letter inside the mailbox, the orange arrow will points up

Japanese feel. 

Second stop: Schmidt's Sausage Haus
I really love the buffet which includes 5 different signature sausage dishes, salads, soups, pastas, bread rolls and special price cream puff (REALLY REALLY GOOD!) and it costs only $11.98 (tax included) ! Very cheap and we were like did they charged us wrongly? LOL

Large size cream puff
From the left, chocolate, vanilla and peanut butter chocolate.
Guess I like which one the most? hehe
