Mcflurry Cry Nov 18, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : American | Fast Food | Ice Cream and Gelato | Burgers and Sandwiches | Kids-Friendly

I am a big fan of mcflurry and I always look forward to the introduction of new, exotic flavors. This time is no different, I placed an order for black sesame mcflurry ($2.80) with high expectations. The final product  didn't look as appetizing as was advertised- but the swirl of black sesame powder and rice krispy cereal in soft serve ice cream was unmistakable. The black sesame taste blended well with the ice cream and the cereal added some crunchiness but it was too heavy and overwhelming with black sesame that I couldn't finish the mcflurry. Only order this if you are a big fan of black sesame.

Liu Sa Bun  Cry Jun 04, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Bakery

I happened to be around the area and decided that I had to get some of the bakery's liu sa bun. Unfortunately, they weren't ready yet and I was told a fresh batch will be out within an hour. I decided to roam around the area and do some shopping before returning in an hour's time to buy the bun. It was fresh out of the oven, and I was delighted that it was still warm. As usual, the bread was soft and fluffy. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed by my purchase this time round- the filling was really little and I could not taste much of the salted egg yolk filling, there was just custard. I'm not sure if they might have compromised on the quality as they rushed the bread out for me. I was very disappointed and I do feel the next time you want to buy your favourite bread and are asked to wait for a long time for it, just get some other bread instead.

Sweet Plum Potato Fries Cry Jun 02, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Taiwanese

 
My craving for Taiwanese street food brought me here to order their Sweet Plum Potato Fries. I had the real deal in Taiwan and I was craving for another serving of crispy sweet potato fries covered in plum powder. The portion of fries was pretty small, and individual fries were more on the thin and scrawny side. The fries were powdered but it was not the plum flavour I was anticipating, just some flavour I couldn't discern. Perhaps my expectations were set too high, but I was it really fell short from its Taiwanese counterpart.

Crayfish Pasta Cry Jul 19, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Bakery

 
Me and my eating partner recently visited Bakerzin to redeem our Crayfish pasta groupon. For $12.90, we were promised a great crayfish pasta dish with "fresh, succulent" pieces of crayfish. Unfortunately, the dish was a disappointment. I found the tomato based sauce wasn't too bad with nice chucks bits of tomato mixed in the spaghetti and the portion was decent. However, the crayfish pieces, which were supposed to be the main highlight of the dish was a big let down. The crayfish flesh were really really small and they stuck onto their big shells. It seemed like the crayfish were not as fresh as described in the groupon deal, but then again, I guess you shouldn't expect so much from such deals. The service provided was also less than desirable. It was very hard to get the attention of the waiters who weren't very attentive at all during my visit.

Pad Thai Cry Mar 16, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Hawker Centre | Halal

 
I heard this stall is famous for beef noodle, but I decided to try something else on their menu, Pad Thai and was very disappointed. The noodles were well fried, but they were rather dry and oily. Also there weren't much ingredients, as you can see in the picture, it's really just fried kway teow noodles. Not a satisfying meal and I would recommend not ordering pad thai.
