I would like to say that their pastries are quite commendable too. Their standard will not lose to those big players like Delifrance. Like their slogan 'Fuel for thought', after having their chicken curry puff, I really feel a little more energetic after lunch.

After heating up the puff, the aroma surface out. The skin turns softer and you can actually tear it. However that flakiness of the skin still remains that little bit. The fillings are quite generous and with every bite, it will be filled with those nice potatoes, herbs and spices. Feels the togetherness. Will try out more of their food and beverages soon.

At Starbucks, is either a cup of hot chocolate or a ice-blended mocha. So for 2 consecutive days, I had the same combination which is a tall Hot Chocolate and Ugly Curry Chicken Puff. It doesn't need much explanation why I went again especially for the puff.

They heat up the puff for you upon ordering and I love it when it doesn't get burnt on the outside. And the fillings inside is hot so be careful. The skin is so flaky and soft along with the hot piping fillings which nearly fall out on my plate. Quite satisfying as the proportion of the skin size and amount of fillings is almost even. The fillings are just like those in small curry puffs but the taste is nicer, probably the herb and spices used in the making is a little different from normal ones.

At a price of $4.30, it is rather pricey as compared but definitely worth the try.

After a good run in the evening, you will always look forward to a good and appetizing meal to reward yourself. And thank god, I was introduced to this stall by my running friends and for the first time, I can fall in love with food instantly.

This stall has quite a lot of patrons and when I was there, there is quite a lot of people queuing. This means some nice food are awaiting for us. Ordered a $5 Fishball Mee Pok Dry. You can choose from $3 - $5. When it is served up, the fried onion aroma is alluring.

First of all is the soup. It has 8 fishballs and about 3 fish dumplings. This is considered a lot. The soup is tasty. And one thing commendable is that their fishballs are hand-made and so is fresh. You can see it from the shape which is uneven and not really round. It is not salty and from there, you get the real fish taste. That shows how much the stall owner cares about the quality of their fishballs.

The noodles given is quite a big portion and I had like a little too much. I think the portion can be shared by 2 persons. It is not over-cooked and the texture is just right. The spiciness of the sauce which has chilli in it was just right and not too overwhelming. From the photo it might seems to be very spicy because of the redness but it is not. So suitable for non-spice taker.

I think this is the nicest fishball mee pok I ever had and truly an authentic fishball noodles. The taste has made me wanna head back again.

Dian Xiao Er has been my favourite restaurant since years back when I first explored here with my boyfriend. After which, I brought my family, my uncles and aunties, and even my friends to other outlets of Dian Xiao Er to enjoy their awesome food during birthdays. Since then, Dian Xiao Er has never failed me on their food and service and I'm very impressed even up till now.



Since we have patronized countless times here, a list of must-order items are always in mind already even though at some times, we will try on new ones in their menu. The must-order items are Ten Wonder Duck, Golden Tofu and Prawn Ball with Mayo, which is also recommended by myself to all.


Ten Wonder Duck - Recommended

They actually have other ducks that is prepared with different ingredients or maybe different methods of cooking but we got hooked with Ten Wonder Duck since the first time when their service staff recommended to us. First the duck meat is tender and a little chewy. And you must really have the sauce underneath to drizzle on your bowl of rice. It is awesome. This way really enhance your appetite. The sauce is not very salty but the herbal taste is just right. Not too strong which sometimes you will resist it. Also dip the duck meat with the sauce too. With every bite, you can feel the sauce bursting from the meat. That shows the meat absorb the sauce real fast. For healthy eating, maybe you can don't take the duck skin. I find it a little fatty but you can have it as a whole if you can find a thinner piece of duck skin.


Golden Tofu - Recommended

Why do I love this is because of the crispy skin on the outside and the tasty fillings on the inside. You may think it is just a normal fried tofu that is bland but this isn't at all. I can taste a mix of fish and tofu in it. I guess that's what makes it so nice, tasty and soft. But the sauce on that day is quite salty. And I guess is because of ingredients price up, the broccoli were given lesser than before. But nevertheless, it doesn't stop me from having it. The taste has win my heart.



Prawn Ball with Mayo - Recommended

Because of my love for prawns and especially fried ones, so that is the reason I recommended this even if there are other choices of prawns available. The prawn balls are so crispy and the prawns are fresh too. I must say that I have a thing for prawns and whether fresh or not, they can't escape my expert taste bud. But I do hope that the mayo can be lesser or maybe put it in a sauce plate and if the customers want to dip with it, they can do so or vice versa. Actually I do want to taste the prawn balls without the mayo. I can confirm it will be very nice. Anyway, it depends on individual preference. After all, both versions are okay for me.

I have got not much to comment for this because we want to balance up our meal with a plate of vegetables. But one thing is that the vegetables are confirmed fresh as it is crunchy with a twist of lime to enhance the taste slightly.

Not forgetting, they have Healthier Choice logo on some dishes so keep a lookout if you wanna have a healthy meal. I think some dishes in Tofu and Vegetable category have the logo. That is very obvious for all of us under the Food Pyramid. Order a bowl of rice or try their fried rice menu which is delicious too. I tried that before.

Do try it and also bring any friends that is visiting Singapore to Dian Xiao Er too.

It has been awhile since I had Dunkin' Donuts. I remember the last time was at the airport before flying off for holiday. Now it is just so near my place, I can have it at my convenience, anytime.

Dunkin' Donuts is another US brand that has many outlets all over the world. Not only for their colourful and delicious donuts, you can also enjoy together with hot piping coffees and other beverages available, and not forgetting sandwiches. From what I see here, mostly are donuts, nice and colourful ones.

I bought a mix of 6 mini donuts or they call it Munchkins. So colourful indeed. I had one with oreo crumps on top, chocolate flakes and pink flakes which I suppose is strawberry flavour. The outside of the Munchkins are kind of rough but the texture is soft with way little chewy feeling.

As for the normal size donuts (Cinnamon and Glazed Mochi), the texture is soft and the outside is smooth. Why is there such a difference between a normal and mini donuts? And of course I love both because it is so chewy. The Glazed Mochi has its sweetness and for Cinnamon, the smell and taste is just right.

Look forward for more varieties soon.
