I end my day 12.12.12 by having desserts with my friends. Sweet it up!

Desserts can be have either cold or hot dessert.
So,normally greedy people like me will order both hot and cold desserts! haha

We ordered strawberry snow ice and also hot desserts which are peanut paste and cheng teng.

Normally, I don't like to eat ice or even ice cream eventhough i am a girl >__<
But this dessert story snow ice was totally different compare with the ice kacang I normally eat.
This snow ice is soft, tasty, sweet and easy melted in the mouth!

For those who not sure what Cheng Teng is:
Cheng Teng is a common dessert which could be found at many stalls.
Cheng Teng's ingredients include lotus seeds, red dates, white fungus, dried longan and etc which you may add on by yourself if you try to cook at home!

The picture below showing the desserts we had ordered
Hope you like it!

There is only once in a life you will go through a day 12.12.2012.

Well, it was an ordinary day for me.
Woke up morning, work, rush job and end work.
But thanks that at least I am not alone for the dinner on that day

We meet up at Choa chu kang mrt station and went to the mall food junction.

Food junction(food court) is a good choice when you have no idea what to eat at the moment.
Because food court have lots and different cuisine like korean, japanese, chinese, indian and etc.

When we walk around to look up for the food,
suddenly we saw there is a set menu at Yoshinoya stall.

The set of $5.00 meal include:
1. pick your bowl set:
-either beef/ teriyaki chicken/ salmon/etc.

2.pick your rice:
white Japanese rice = free
others rice = + $0.50

3.pick your soupMe and my friend was ordered Teriyaki chicken and salmon set bowl.:bowl:The teriyaki sauce is just nice. Not too salty or sweet.
And just nice for a bowl of rice.
While the vegetables are quite fresh too
Red carrots are not hard to chew, soft and sweet!

But the soup is just like a chinese cuisine soup.
White carrot soup.

Overall : Yummy! thumbs up

My friend who has been stayed in Germany for 3 months for her intern ship working was came back.
We went to airport and welcome her back to Singapore.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

We : So, where do you like to have your dinner?
my friend : I WANT CHINESE FOOD!

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Well then, we went to this Soup Restaurant and have a welcome back DINNER!

There are some package for set meals (?pax) which they already choose the dishes for you.
While if you go with only a few people, you could order ala carte as well.

As there are 9 of us, so we ordered a set of 9 person meals.

It is called Chinatown Healthy set (牛车水健康套餐) :bowl:
The dishes included as shown below:
1. Samsui Ginger chicken
2. Double boiled Ling Zhi with lean pork soup
3. stir fried Venison with spring onion&ginger
4. fried kangkung (a little bit spicy)
5. steamed fish
6. yang zhou fried rice
7. tofu
8. fried kai lan with garlic
9. claypot prawns with mushroomMany people recommend the samsui ginger chicken before.
So, this is the first time I try this dish.

For me, I normally don't like to eat ginger!
But this ginger chicken with that ginger is really taste differently.
How differently, well, you have to try it and you will know

Total cost we had this meal is $323.

But for those if you go for a group 9 persons like us and all of you not very big appetite,
I could suggest that you take a set of 8 pax will be enough!

My friend was introduced me to this restaurant as he never try but only saw this restaurant by surfing internet.

Well, when I was there, there are 2 big green rubbish bin just outside the door.
I was thinking why they not put at side or shift to somewhere else?

Okay then, I walked in with my friend, the inside environment looks quite dark, it is somehow like a romantic place which first came to my mind.

Well, for food there are some choices like salad, burger, pizza and pasta.

While for drinks: there are mocktails(non-alcoholic),beer and cocktail(alcoholic).

For your info,on Thursday, there is 50% for the second burgers order.

The front page of the menu looks:And my friend was ordered a cocktail drink (Mojito) $18 for 1.

Well, short words to describe the day:
I dislike the place as the first impression was not good enough.

1. The first person service us never mentioned that there is happy hour for 1-1 alcohol drinks, until we ordered other alcohol drinks and another person served us and tell us the regarding happy hour.

2. The food is served slow!

3. The food, price slightly expensive,sorry to say so, but taste only OK!
Below show the food i ordered,
(The vault wagyu burger) $20 for 14. The bill also served slow.

Well, I can only say this place is nice to have a drinks and just sit for relax as i stated above that the environment inside is dark and romantic and some artistic photos on the wall.

So, at the end we ordered a tequila mix with oranges juice ($28 for 2 tequila while orange juice $4 for 2).Overall, I am just disappointed for the dinner
Sorry to say so. It is just a feeling but not a complaint.

This was my first try on this special restaurant which I never heard before.
At first I was wondering how could be the soup fill in the bread when I am looking at the menu
Are you wondering too??

So, without thinking too much, I just ordered a Mogu Mogu soup to try the taste.
It is a chunky soup with an array of mushrooms.

For your info, "Mogu" is read in chinese which mean is mushroom.

You can ordered only the soup or choose to have the BREAD!
But if with the bread, the price will be a little bit more to pay.
For example, for this Mogu mogu soup which I ordered,
if ONLY soup, is $7.80
while soup+bread is $10.30.

The bread yes, a little bit strong/firm because it act like a wall to protect the soup from being flow out.
Yet, no worry, you may drink the soup first and slowly cut the bread and eat by dipping it into the soup.

Of course for those who are not mushroom lovers, there are still many choices favour of taste like seafood, tomato and etc. (go have a try)

If you are first time, I could suggest that you may try with the bread.
