Congrats! I'm sure you'll do well with the support of your massive army of foodies (which includes me).

Meanwhile, Jφss Sticks is sending out a SOS for help to fend off the kawaii teeny spree blogs in Best Blog Shop!

You got my vote too Ms Loi

Alvin said...

Both of you are great! :)

Why is there a need to go round asking for vote? Cheap thrill to win under such circumstances. Win on merit is better than solicitation. Otherwise the whole event is a farce.

I disagree with Anonymous. Please register a name so that we can get to know you. Anonymity means you are not a contributor to the site, hence, your views should be taken with a pinch of salt. The supporters of this blog know Leslie, and I think its perfectly fine to drum up some support. We forummers are wise and independent enough to vote or not vote.

Go ask Obama and McCain to just keep quiet and let people vote without campaigning?

Congratulations for being nominated. I have enjoyed many of your posts and have been referring to it when I need insightful ideas for good hawker food. You've got my vote. May you win the scores from the judges. That would be 70%.

Oh thanks for that! Somehow I always assumed that omy was the online version of my paper for some reason!

Hi Les, sorry. Company has quite strict rules and blocked some pages. So, had to choose Anonymous as the quickest way. "Dugong" is the nickname I've been given by all my friends. Simply love your almost daily post! For this, I've voted this blog yesterday. Yummylicious recommendations. Put on 8kg hahaha following those foodie lists! Thanks again and keep going with the great recommendations!

Willie said...

Dun worry. I got a click happy right index.

ieat said...

Thanks Dugong, remember that you get one vote everyday till the end of July!

Thanks for the support Willie, I trust your index finger!

Aiyah, all a farce as many votes can come from the same person. Winning the contest no meaning.

Anonymous said...

Dugong here again!
Thanks Cactus! Will try to. Yup, have loads of makan places to share also,but no chance to write for now. Will be away for 2 weeks. Gotta sign up & get my nick up first.haha
Yes! 8kg and up! "Jiak Lat". BMI is skyrocketing to Obese Stage 1! Anyway, I just love to eat yummy food!

cactuskit said...

There are various ways to stay alive with the eating we are doing. You have Leslie's way, which is to whack one meal and then go light for the rest of the day. You have jem's way, which is to whack for a few days then diet a few days. Or my way, whack and run and whack and run. You decide. : )

See you in the blog soon.

Thanks for yr hard work..

ieat said...

Wow, thanks for the support! To whom can I express my gratitude? Instead of using anonymous why don't you use the third option and adopt a pen name? Again, my sincere thanks.

khim said...

wah.. now then i noticed e enticing prizes u get when u win e award lei!

"The top blogger in each category will walk away with a laptop and a trophy designed by Singapore's multi-disciplinary artist Tan Swie Hian. The top three most voted bloggers across all categories will win a LG mobile phone each"

ieat said...

Yes, my five year old laptop now battery dead, DVD player cannot play DVD, 20GB harddisk always running out of space. After 2 years of blogging, perhaps now it can pay for its own laptop! So please vote for me!

jems said...
