this is what i have for lunch on most work days - egg noodles with fried fish slices in milky based soup plus lots of their chili swirled in.

i don't really take milk so i was skeptical for a really long time, and never understood the appeal of condensed milk mixed in soup. then one day i was so sick of choosing what to eat so i told my boyfriend to just get me 'whatever'. first mouthful, and i was quickly sold.

we usually tapau this back to the office because it's suicide having soup in an unairconditioned kopitiam in Singapore's killer weather. and one of the best feelings in life is feeling the warmth of some hot and spicy soup spread through your whole body while sitting in the cold office, but especially so after it's just been raining out.

this is the best of all the fish head noodles i've tried so far. it's really really good - the fish slices are lightly fried outside, but very smooth and thick inside. i think the egg noodles plays a part in making the taste of the soup come out even better, because it just doesn't taste as good when i once replaced it with plain old beehoon. and i don't know what's in the chili, but it's pretty spicy (and it makes your breath stink), and it makes for a really nice complement to the dish.

the most unhealthy food really are the most delicious, for this must be the most unhealthy variation for a very healthy 'fish slice noodle' dish

i'm not a fan of froyo because they are so expensive & i'm really dubious about their 'low fat' claim (ice cream is ice cream is ice cream no?) but i really cannot resist cute branding!!! i just HAD to give sour sally the benefit of doubt because she's really too cute.

thank god i did because the froyo's SO good! i went for the most basic — plain original with no toppings. the sour sits right with me, unlike the sour from frolick which i really disliked despite the hype. definitely popping by every time i'm back at wisma!

we were at somerset, and we wanted to have pasta for dinner. Spageddies looked like a safe option, what with its traditional deco, and claims of serving 'woodfire pizza'. there is nothing wrong with expecting an italian restaurant that serves 'woodfire pizza' to serve up a good pasta right?this was our starter. the dip was baked cheese, sour cream and mushroom served warm, and with warm garlic toast to dip in with. we liked it very much, though we thought it was a tad pricey at $5.50 for such a tiny serving.i ordered the 'chicken scallopini', which was chicken medallions with lemon butter sauce served with spaghetti, mushrooms and tomatoes. the chicken meat was too tough for my liking, and although the pasta was cooked nicely, the sauce had a soured taste to it. granted, the dish boasts of 'lemon butter sauce', but i did not expect the lemon to be quite this unnaturally sour.i cannot quite recall the exact dish name for this, but it was crayfish in some sort of tomato sauce and a small steak with some sort of brown sauce, served with pasta cooked aglio-olio style. boyfriend didn't seem to quite like this, saying simply that it's 'not very nice'.

perhaps it was poor food choices made on our part, or it could be the poor service that had dampened our spirits, such that we could not quite enjoy our food. i was just wielding my camera around after making our order when one of the staff who was carrying our starter to our table hollered from 10 steps away that cameras aren't allowed. i thought it was rather rude that he couldn't have come up to me and quietly ask me to put my camera away, although he *did* say it with a HUGE(a tad too huge methinks) grin.

none of the wait staff were on hand to give food recommendations either, and our plates were whisked away really quickly, making us feel not quite so welcomed.
