Gooey favorite Smile Jan 09, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Singaporean Chinese | Hawker Centre | Noodles

I have eaten this in the past, but then I started picking it up and then it ended as a favorite whenever lunch hour is around going to the office.

The gooey soup with kway tiao (choosing rice instead of egg noodles as a healthier version and to avoid acne pimples) and the shark fritters which I don't believe (poor sharks but I dont mind if its normal fish) is just as addictive the more you eat it.

It doesn't need to be introduced again, with a bowl of $2.50, the gooey soup gives you the sense of fulfillment in your tummy with a tablespoon++ of black vinegar and chopped spring onions, adding that zing of freshness and eliminating the fishy after taste.

Even the lady now knows me asking "are you studying here" and with the articles pasted all over their board, again, no introduction needed as even Singapore-based mangaka artist (i forgot the name but i've met him for real) drew this famous lor mee as a Singaporean dish must-try!

Crunch yer buck 'ere Smile Jan 09, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Hawker Centre

The cookieatmonster is back! And let me tell you if you have the biggest appetite ever like I do, having a men's stomach in a girl's being, this is a stall you can't miss for being its A grade cleanliness score seen on the front side of the stall and the two men chefs who, I asked where did you guys go, sometimes you guys open, sometimes you're not even around.

"Well, we sometimes feel that it's not so full with people so we don't open, then if we wake up early we'll open."

like a slacker like me, their cooking skills don't reflect that, rest assured.

I ordered the fried fish with veggies and rice set because it looked huge in the picture. And it came out as expected. chopstick

I have to say thumbs up as the veggies are fresh and has a lot of varieties which I dont find much where else - carrot, mushrooms, paprika, broccoli and some cabbage here and there with bbq sauce is awesome.

Fish is fried to perfect crunch, I assume its dory fish fillet, streamed with mayonnaise.

Rice portion is also quite generous.

Tastewise should be pretty plain and straightforward as the taste meddles and heavily depends on your ketchup and chilli and mayonnaise usage dose (my case, its all three in one and adds up a mountain) but given on a big white plate, I felt like I was at Fish and Co half the price.

a green gathering! Smile May 16, 2011   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Western Variety | Café | Pasta | Brunch | Pets Friendly

Well if it isn't long overdue - the biggest ORTU gathering yet to be held at the Green Room - Canopy Garden Dining bar!

I was - well running late and lost - around the amenity, and finally after an hour prolly being late I arrived! I felt bad as the rest was all seated nicely.

Anyhow we had almost 8-9 serves with special cocktail mix including the chocolate sin. I forgot the name but THAT, was my favorite. it was just exactly like a peanut butter chocolate smooth milkshake, which the bartender explained to us its a specialty and popular amongst the ladies.

However the best out of the best was my favorites spaghetti and the italian meatball they go well together to complement the taste - the meatball was spicy and the pasta was light - don't have to worry on the curry, as the green curry is quite tasteless here but again it's tad spicy. Gives your tongue fireworks!

One more thing I liked for the taste but quite poor in presenting is the prawn mango salad. Taste wise is exceptional, but it would be better if it was served chilled - it was warm and leaves were a bit soft - I know I was late but for others prawn served cold gives a big difference nor the mango sauce! Talk about dessert as appetizer!mad

The SG Wannabe Soup Smile May 16, 2011   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Multi-Cuisine | Restaurant | Vegetarian | Chinese Soup | Western Soup | Halal

Well, a background: SG Wannabe is a Korean singer with the full name "Simon n Garfunkel Wannabe". And well, at Soup spoon, there's a soup called the Simon and Garfunkel Chicken Soup!

I never tried this one before since I'm bored with the usual mushroom that is famous but I guess has bore me. I was lucky enough to get the bread piping hot from the toaster - had to wait but its of worth! Love their soft little bun to soak to the soup!

Added pepper but didn't make much of a difference. It was filling in a sense that it had a lot of chicken bits and the vegetables. But it really didn't grew on me, tastewise was OK but not super wow delicious!

Cold noodles for the first time! Smile May 16, 2011   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Japanese

Yes, although I'm a self confessed Jap freak, this is like literally the first time I ordered a main menu from the soba list. Usually taken as a side dish this time I ate it whole cold. It was the hot weather than drives me mad and my friends and we ate mad ordering many things.

This was I ordered a mix of soba nad udon with the cold sauce. The sauce was light and sweet so I added soy sauce (well sorry I'm a salty person). They added the fish flakes on top of the udon and seaweed on the soba. It did make a difference as it was plain with only the noodle! But it was just right for the taste and for the weather. Or either because we were starving as well. Better than the other sobas tried in town! smile
