Two nights ago, I received two new emails in my mailbox from my blog readers. One was from Amel, the other from Mike. They were both writing to me for the very first time, at the same time though one is now residing in Europe, and the other's in America. Now here's the uncanny part.
Amel wrote to me about her upcoming trip to Bandung, a town in Indonesia where she was originally from. She's hoping to swing by Singapore where we can finally meet each other.
Meanwhile, from the other side of the world, Mike was asking me if I've ever heard of a delicious rose petal drink he had tasted in Singapore. He was wondering if I could send some over to him. Why, it's a drink called Bandung of course!
Now I don't know if this sweet pinkish bandung drink made using rose essence and milk has got anything to do with the Bandung in Indonesia but geez, what a coincidence!

As far as I know I've never heard any drinks called Bandung, but who knows? ;-D I don't know everything...but now I'm curious about this drink he he he he...
That is uncanny!! Isn't it strange when things like that happen.
That's coincidence indeed. I rem I don't fancy the drink & would rather stick to green tea or ice lemon tea :)
Strange but very cool!!! I can't wait to get my Ting Ting Special Rose Pedal Drink!!!!
