Insane Fun!

Yellow, bug-eyed insanity.

The craziest family on earth is on the big screen! The Simpsons movie is not for those who are looking for great stories like LOTR and Star Wars. It's for those who appreciate the classic insult to intelligence by Homer and the characters from Springfield. One of the things which I enjoyed the most was, I got to see the show in surround sound, finally! Not only that, I was surprised that Hans Zimmer scored the film rather than Alf Clausen, but Zimmer captured the mood perfectly, just as he did for Pirates' At World's End. I was just a bit disappointed that the original theme score wasn't performed as I really wanted to hear it in hi-def, but nevertheless the whole soundtrack was beautiful =) Stay until the end of the credits for full enjoyment!


As for my snack, I paid a little visit to Uncle Lim's. Sampled the tea and Hainanese bread with kaya and butter. The tea appeared to be diluted at first, but after 2 sips, the taste started to sink in. The light milk and sugar enhanced the tea, rather than just sweeten and smoothen it. It had this perfect borderline of smooth, sweet and raw. The bread had a subtle smoky smell and taste. It was toasted but you still could feel the fluffiness of it. The combination of the kaya and butter gave a special distinct separation of the saltiness of the butter and the sweetness of the kaya, but it came together, wholesome, like a painting..mmmmmm...Hainanese bread... =)

At Uncle Lim's, The Curve.
