Fishcake Noodles Smile Apr 29, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Coffeeshop | Noodles

This Noodles stall is just under my block, so I go down regularly to get a takeaway. So familiar with me that the lady boss knows what I want without having me speaking. Haha smile

For today, I ordered Fishcake Kuey Teow Dry. One may think it's weird having fishcake instead of the usual fishballs. I disliked fishballs, so I would alwys request the boss to allow me to have fishcakes instead of fishballs! smile That's also the reason why the boss remembers me so well; becos Im her only customer who has such an ususual request! Hehe.

The kuey teow is really nice, not too soft, and somewhat different from other places in the sense that black sauce is used instead of tomato ketchup for their dried noodles version.
Although there was only fishcakes and beansprouts in the whole dish, the taste of the sauce is good that I can eat the noodles on it's own without feeling that the whole thing is too plain. The fishcake is soft, while the beansprouts maintain their 'crisp' too.

Portion wise, it is just nice for me, and it is $3 which I think is pretty worth it as the ingredients are also given in generous portions. smile

Cookie Crumble from Starbucks Smile Apr 29, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : American | Coffee

Was chilling out with my friends and as they wish to have a drink, so we decided to drop by Starbucks at 313 Somerset.

My friends ordered hot chocolate, green tea mocha (I think), while I ordered Cookie Crumble. I dun usually go Starbucks, so Im not very familiar with their names. Ordered Cookie Crumble just bcos I saw it on Starbuck's board, and it looked super delicious. tongue

It was $6.90, and my friend told me it was 1-for-1 before 7pm. Oh well, we went at 9pm, so it wasnt applicable. mad Nevertheless, I was really happy with my purchase! smile

I could select whether I prefer whipping cream on top (though I said no), and there was Chocolate cookie crumbs on top of the beverage. It was heavenly, and taste really like cookies. It was like I was drinking cookies! smile It was really delicious and something I can't describe until you try it yourself! Chocolatey and makes you craving for more!

Overall, the best drink I had from Starbucks! Heard it's new, so hopefully they dun remove it from their menu. smile I'll certainly go back for more soon! lol

A Satisfying Dinner @ Wan Chai Smile Apr 29, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Cantonese/Hong Kong | Café

Met up with my friends to catch a movie and before that, we went to Wan Chai Hong Kong Tea Room @ Lot 1 to have our dinner. I loved the Chicken leg baked rice from there, so I didnt waste time in ordering that for my meal.

The place requires patrons to tick their orders on a slip of paper and walk over to the cashier to place the order. Though they serve the food to the table. A nice touch to the rice was that a bowl of soup accompanied every main you order. The whole meal cost me $9.10, inclusive a GST of 60cents.

Chicken Leg Baked Rice
Portion was huge, I managed to eat only 3/4 of the whole plate before I gave up trying to stuff myself. The chicken leg was also big, and the skin was really nice and tasty. Flesh was tender, though it was pretty oily. There were carrots at the side, though I didnt touch them. The amount of cheese was just nice, but rice portion was too much for me. The sauce with the rice was too salty to my liking.

Soup
The soup smelt like some herbal concoction of some sort, but it was actually veggies (I presume it was seaweed) soup. There was a very strong taste of seaweed which I disliked, so I drank only 5 mouthfuls of it and as my friend said it was good for health, she drank finished my whole bowl of soup after that.

Overall, satisfying meal as portion is very worth the price; I was really full. smile

Nice Fish & Chips Smile Apr 17, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Food Court | Steaks and Grills

I was feeling hungry and so decided to grab lunch here. I've not tried this stall before, but since I was craving fish & chips, I decided to settle my lunch here.

The serving was huge when I received it. There was garlic bread, 1 slice of fried fish, some baked beans, and a portion of salad. I didnt like the salad so passed it to my sister after I mouth. She ate all of it, saying it was really nice. shocked I guess different people have different tastes!

For the fish, it is really nice! The outside batter is super crispy, while soft on the inside. Really didnt expect to find such good fish & chips in a coffeeshop! Moreover, it was a big piece! lol

The baked beans were just straight from the cans, thus they werent hot/warm in any way. However, I still loved eating them (as I like baked beans all along). smile

Last but not least, the garlic bread. It was deep fried, and still warm when I ate it. It was hard, so I put some baked beans on top, which made it softer to bite into. smile

Overall, a great find in a coffeeshop, and I enjoyed my lunch tremendously! Will come again next time. smile

Tea break at Burger King OK Apr 17, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : American | Fast Food | Halal | Burgers and Sandwiches

Was getting some stuffs from Cineleisure and Scape, and after walking for some time, I felt hungry and tired, so decided to rest at Burger King for a while. There was alot of ppl there, but luckily I managed to find a table without having to wait long.

Decided to get some chicken tenders to munch on as I wasnt so hungry as to want to have a burger. It came with a sauce called Kung Pao, and I laughed when I saw it. The name was hilarious! However, as I wasnt the kind who is adventurous and like to try out new stuffs, I didnt touch that sauce at all. Thinking back, feel abit regretted as Im curious as to wat it taste like. mad Thus, had the chicken tenders on its own. They werent hot or warm either when I ate them, and not crunchy at all. Kind of disappointing, but maybe they were supposed to be like that since the name was chicken 'tenders'. The meat inside was soft though, but abit dry. There were about 6pieces inside, which made me really full after i finished them all!

Overall, ok taste but at least it managed to fill my stomach till dinnertime. smile
