四川豆花 make my wobby...

Last week went to 四川豆花 at UOB for dinner. Dunno what did I eat, after that I feel a bit not well. Stomach like bloated. Then guess what? Next day, I vomited 4 times!!! Woah!!!! Any way, the ambience is not as good as China Club. It is pretty crowded and noisy. Populated with a lot of Japanese! Surprisingly..

Free 名牌 cake

I have a portfolio in my company which I held for 2 years. After holding on this position for 2 years, I decided it is time to let go. This portfolio is really too time consuming! I have no time to focus on other things. My boss finally let me go and gave me a 名牌 cake for 答謝我的貢獻。Haa!! The cake is a mango cake from Bakerzin and it tastes great!!

東北風味 in Chinatown

There are two exchange students finishing their attachment and leaving soon. Hence, we decided to 替他們餞行 at a nice Chinese food stall in Chinatown. It is selling 東北菜。I always open to different kind of 風味 and this time round we made a good choice. The food we ordered are very delicious. The restaurant is extremely crowded and they actually 破例 to let us make a reservation. They also selling 哈爾濱啤酒。This 哈啤 tastes sweet and nice.

Yummy 的白色戀人

If you go to Hokkaido, you will have to buy 白色戀人。It is 北海道名產 which is a kind of biscuit. This 白巧克力 is made from 北海道香醇牛奶 and 口感一流﹗好吃﹗﹗

來一個 Hand Burger

漢堡包 you might eat a lot in many places but in a 漢堡包專賣店 (not fast food chain) might not be everyday affair. This shop The Hand Burger specializes in 漢堡包 and is quite interesting. It has quite a number of 漢堡包 to choose from ranging beef, chicken, seafood, vegetarian, pork etc.. You can even customized your own burger! I ordered pumpkin & crab bisque Soup and the duck confit burger. The burger portion is quite a good size. Not too big and not too small. The duck meat is quite tender too. As for the soup, it is quite thick but the pumpkin taste is a bit lacking.

Chinatown 美食街

牛車水 has a 美食街 which has many nice food. It is a 大排檔 and you can get to taste the different types of 小吃。I ordered a 排骨面 at 史密斯街蝦面。It is quite a generous portion. The soup is nice and meat is tender. But it is still a tourist spot so the price is not cheap.

韓流延燒食物 BBQ Chicken

Singapore is overwhelmed by 韓流 in terms of 韓劇。But another 韓流 has overwhelmed Singapore in terms of Korean food. One of their largest chain BBQ Chicken has landed in here and I went to their West Coast Plaza outlet. 顧名思義﹐they are experts in chicken. I have ordered one of their chicken set lunch which is quite 划算。It has a soup, a drink, a main course and dessert. The chicken is very tender and succulent. Their 密制 sauce is really very nice and tasty. 口感 quite good.

Curry 豬腸粉

There is a new eating place opened in West Mall. It is something like Old Town Cafe which sells Kopi and Laksa. I saw a food item call curry 豬腸粉 and decided to give it a shot. The curry is those normal chicken curry type and add to the 豬腸粉。Though both things are nothing new, the overall 口感 is not bad.

燒焦的 The Uncle Sam's Claypot

I visited The Uncle Sam's Claypot at City Square Mall due to some good reviews online. I ask the waitress what is good and she recommends 砂鍋鹿肉 and I said ok. But end up my order becomes 砂鍋雞肉﹗So I asked her how come my order changed and she insisted that I ordered chicken! First impression of this restaurant become negative. Then, they served up their 鎮店之寶 - 砂鍋雞肉 and I was hoping 錯有錯着。The food looks appetizing but that stops here. To my disappointment, it is not nice. The rice 燒焦味 is really too much and 難以如口。So end up I only eat the meat and the whole pot of rice is wasted. I also ordered the soup and vegetable and luckily they taste quite nice. Overall, I think I wun go back again.

土耳其餐 Nice!

Suddenly 心血來潮 wanted to try out 土耳其餐。With the recommendation by the boss, I ordered a lamb leg and one in house special dish - a kind of wrap. 老闆果然沒介紹錯。The 羊腿肉 is really very tender!! One bite and the meat comes off very easily. Not tough at all. Best of all, it has no 羊臊味﹗The in house special is also quite nice. Sort of vegetable po piah with white sauce. Ha.. Overall, the food is good, boss is friendly but just that exotic food usually come at a slightly higher price.

Bangkok Jam 泰式叉燒

I got a voucher and can be used in Bangkok Jam. Thus, I decided to pay this restaurant a visit to see how the food taste like. It is a weekday night and the restaurant has a few customers which 我喜歡 as I love to dine with quiet surrounding. Open up the menu and you get to see the usual Thai fare such as green curry and tom yam soup. I ordered a tom yam soup and one Chinese style food - 叉燒 with some sauce. Wrap it with the lettuce and it tastes great. The soup is nice but what I like about is the 叉燒。It is really chewy and the sauce is great! Maybe due to a quiet night, the service is also quite good. Bangkok Jam is located in Great World City.

Mellben Seafood 排長龍

On 元宵節, my friends wanted to "Loi Hei" and suggest to go Mellben Seafood. I was quite reluctant as I know it will be long queue! As expected, we queued almost 1.5 hours before getting a seat. The Bee Hoon Crab is the 招牌菜 and is a must try dish. If you want to come without queuing for so long, try

1. Come after 8.30pm
2. Come in small group say 4 ppl
3. Come on weekdays

團圓飯 at home

Today is 年三十晚 and as usual, my family and I will come back home early to have our steamboat 團圓飯。This is to signify family reunion before the new year starts!

Shabu-Shi 種類不多﹐Service 很好

Shabu-Shi is a 一人一鍋 Japanese buffet and have four soup base to choose from. There is a conveyor belt like Sakae Sushi with all the food circulating. You just take the food you like and put them into the steamboat. The drinks are free flow plus ice cream. The variety of food is not that many and food wise is ok. But I like the service there. You get fast, prompt and friendly service.

Say Cheeze! 吃到笑口常開

Say Cheeze is a cafe style restaurant that sells food with lots of cheese. However, they also have little cheese food. I ordered the usual. A main and a soup come in a coconut. The food is rather tasty. But the thing 我喜歡 more is their service. It is prompt and friendly. The waiter will top up the ice water without asking. Overall, it is quite a nice experience.

Langkawi 樸素又美麗 （二）

What can we eat in Langkawi? Actually the food is rather similar in Singapore.

1. Breakfast:
Besides the usual continental style breakfast in the resort, there are also Asian style such as prata, mee suan, nasi lemak etc...



2. Lunch:
I have lunch at The Loaf. When I was there, I do not know it is owned by 馬來西亞前首相 - Dr. Mahathir. I only know it when I back in Singapore. The bread there are quite famous. Lucky I 誤打誤撞 and enter this restaurant.



3. Dinner:
My friend prefers to eat Chinese food. So we explored some nice coffee shops for dinner. We have 3 dishes 1 soup every night. Ha!




4. Snack:
There are some road side snacks you can buy. I have bought one fried sotong. Taste yummy. At the airport, I also bought a nice 茶葉蛋﹗

香港 Love is in the air （四）

到了 Hong Kong 哪裡可以不吃 Hong Kong dim sum? But if you are looking for those traditional shop that has trolley pushing around, you will be disappointed. Nowadays, you really need to search hard for one in Hong Kong. Another 非吃不可的就是許留山﹗This is Lock's recommendation. I always eat the dessert there when in Hong Kong. Ha!

I have helped a colleague in her work lately. To my pleasant surprise, she gave me Royce Chocolate to 報答 my help! It is a 相當名牌 chocolate from Japan. I was like 不好意思 as I really did not help much also. Ha.. 所以助人為樂﹐必有回報。
