Of Emily and 100 yen shop

Met up with Emily two days ago at Taman Desa's 100 yen shop to pass her some edamame. She is so familiar with the staff that she store her frozen edamae in their fridge while we go for breakfast. Then the 'si tau poh' came and Emily asked to look at their catalogue. We ended up spending almost an hour going through all the items. The si tau po has agreed to order all the cute bento stuff such as picks, baran, silicon cups, cutters. So exciting!! There'll be about ten different types of picks from clickety click picks, jewelled picks, animal picks etc. And the silicon cups are different from the Daiso ones. Depending on the supply in Japan side, most of the stock should arrive in March. Will let everyone know then. Watch this page.

Edit: The 100 yen shop is a franchise, and each shopowner/branch order their own stock, which accounts for the different items carried in different branches. So only this Taman Desa branch will order the things mentioned above.

In the end, instead of breakfast, we went for lunch at Francais Alliance. Thanks Emily for lunch and for the things you gave the kids. Hope you enjoy the edamame.

Aiyo, so nice!*so envy la* I was quite disappointed wt the 100 yen shop in Pg... couldn't find any cut bento stuff. The only thing they have are the normal shape rice molds...!! 1/2 of the shop space already took up by the titbits & food! sigh.
