Cupcake to reward myself Smile Mar 10, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Desserts and Cakes

I was West Coast and bought the cupcake from OCD. I show my appreciation as being a women by rewarding myself for a pink cupcake. I tried the Berry Rush cupcake. I thought it was strawberry but it was berry. There wasn’t any berry. It must be the name. The topping on the berry cream was the white chocolate which was my favourite. The white chocolate was neither sweet. Together with the cream and bite onto the soft cupcake, the cream went well and moisture the soft texture cake.

Every bite of the cupcake was a pleasure.

Luxurious Afternoon Smile Mar 03, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Multi-Cuisine | Hotel | High Tea | Buffet

I spent a luxurious afternoon dinning finger food at Chihuly Lounge. It was one of the ways to stay away from the hot sun.

I ordered a few item. There were chicken nugget, mini burger, salmon with rod, sauage roll.
The chicken nuggets were fried till red. The nugget had marginated with curry powder and to dip into the soury sauce. These were to enhance the nugget. The nuggets were dry but when mixed with the sauce, the nuggets were not dry.

The next items were the mini burger. There were small slice of tomatoe, and mixed vegetables and a small slice of ham was stacked on top of the bread. When doing this, the ham had to be dry and could not hold too wait, otherwise the bread will turn soggy when the ham’s moisture sipped through the bread. The bread looked attractive.

The salmon with rod spread just mini sashimi. The salmon was flesh and the rod was bubble and firm, together with the black and white sesame seed, these had added the aroma of the food.

The sauage roll was not too dry. The roll was crispy. The filling to go with the roll was otak. The otak was contained mackerel.

I enjoyed the food and the peaceful environment.

Yu Sheng OK Feb 11, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Cantonese/Hong Kong | Restaurant | Dim Sum

I had the Tanjong Panjar Senior Citizen Chinese New Year Lou Hei lunch. For any mass public dining, the Organizer had engaged Red Star Restaurant. The first course that everyone must have was the Yu Sheng. It symbolizes a dish of wealth in the Year of Horse.

Necessary ingredients were prepared in the bento tray. Everyone was anxious to see what type of fish would be offered. It is the golden fish – the tray of about 10 slices of salmon was top on ingredient.

Wah! 10 persons to fight for the slice of salmon was not easy. Either one must be lucky and sharp to spot the salmon. Finally the Yu Sheng was tossed and did I get the salmon. Well, I was not lucky and I was lucky that I could enjoy the Yu Sheng with the Senior and bless them for longevity.

The Yu Sheng was alright to the taste but It lacked of moisture such as sauce was not sufficient.

Good Offer Should Not Miss  Smile Feb 10, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Multi-Cuisine | Restaurant | Burgers and Sandwiches

The Burger Bar at Far East Plaza had its 1st Anniversary. To celebrate this occasion, there was a offer of $1 burger. I had been to Burger Bar several times but to miss this good offer deal was too hard to resist.

When I reached the Bar at 12.45pm, there was already 47 order ahead. It meant every one minutes, there was at least one order. The crowd was manageable. For this occasion, the boss had deployed more staff in the kitchen.

I ordered sesame bun and honey oat bun to go with lettuce and the choices of meat were pork and grilled chicken. I did not intend to eat the burger for my lunch. Instead, I was planning to consume them as my dinner. However, to have the burger prepare and pack for 4 hours ahead would mean that the burger will be soggy. An idea that came to me was to separate all the ingredient which meant to pack the meat, lettuce and buns separately. I brought some clean empty boxes and told the kitchen staff to pack the food in the food. The staff accommodated to my means.

When I reached home, my bun was still good. It was not wet as the meat was not packed with the bun. The only thing that I noticed was that my box of lettuce was wet. If I had placed the lettuce on the bun, I would expect that the bun will be soggy.

Another thing that I noticed was that there was a hole on the pork. This mean when the kitchen staff was grilling the meat, they used a stick to test if the meat is cooked.

I heated up the meat and I packed all the ingredient into the bun and ready to be served. Wah! The bun was still as good as it was served at the restaurant.

Good offer should not miss.

Yu Sheng Smile Feb 10, 2014

Categories : Japanese | Seafood | Sushi/Sashimi

I had ordered a pax of Yu Sheng from Kuriya- IchiBan Boshi at Great World City Branch. The queue was long but worth waiting as the Yu Sheng was great.

It was a large size Yu Sheng costs $42.80 nett without GST charge. The restaurant exercises honesty showing what the customers would expect to get from the Yu Sheng. In the Yu Sheng platte, there were 12 pices of Salmon Sashimi, 8 pieces of Hamachi Sashimi (Yellow Tail) and 8 pieces of Maguro Sashimi (Tuna). Putting all the Yu Sheng, it represents 4 numbers, 1288. What a nice 4D number. Huat Ah!

The ingredient comprises chukka kurage, red ginger, chukka wakame, winter melon, lime, fried sesame, peanut crunch, pok chui biscuit, 5 spices, cinnamon & pepper, carrot & raddish and Yu Sheng sauce. One thing that I noticed was that for healthy eating, no oil is provided. All these ingredients are added together with the sashimi and tossed.

After the toss, the individual serving looked wonderful. There were moisture on the ingredient ate. I can find thick sashimi. When I eat Yu Sheng, I like to suck as there was sweetness in the ingredients.
