Spice Into the New Year: A Start-Work Lunch at Xiang Xiang Hunan Cuisine

Xiang Xiang Hunan Cuisine at 8-10 Mosque Street Happy Lunar New Year to all my readers, wherever you may be. I started work today (19.02.2026). Although not many colleagues were around, I still managed to gather a few close ones for a “start-work lunch” at a fancy restaurant that serves Chinese cuisine. After some discussion, we decided on Xiang Xiang Hunan Cuisine in Chinatown. Even better, it was my first time trying their food. I’ve always known it to be a popular spot with notoriously long queues. Thankfully, we arrived early because right after we were seated, a steady stream of patrons began pouring in. Snacks & Ice Cream Corner for patrons once you enter As we entered the restaurant, we were greeted by the Snacks & Ice Cream Corner located opposite the waiting area. I didn’t even realize it was there until we were about to leave! My colleagues especially loved the Golden Horn Snack, but I thought both options, including the Crispy Crust, were equally good.

New Beginning

27 February 2020

More than a month ago when I got down to write out my feelings about job interviews.

How annoying and frustrating it is to be asked 'Why did you just quit without finding a job first?'.
Mind your own business. Quit w/o a job doesn't mean I'm bad or lousy, whatever you can think of.
Just the way I want it to be.

Period.

Now, I'm done with it. Got a job on my 5th interview since Nov 2019.
Congrats.

Either they are easy with their selection, or just my luck has come.
Either way, I'm happy.
At least they never really ask in details about that annoying question.

3rd week on the job. Still surviving. Just need time to adapt.

Till then...
