Kentucky Fried Chicken Smile Sep 23, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : American | Fast Food | Halal

My son is asking to eat French fries and I am craving for fried chicken. I decide to bring him to KFC for lunch today. The queue at lunch time today is not long and so we only waited a while for our turn.

 
I ordered the 2 pieces chicken meal that comes with 2 pieces of either crispy or original chicken, whipped potato, coleslaw and a regular sized soft drink. I decide to have 2 pieces of crispy chicken that is slightly spicy and is crispy on the skin and I opt to change the coleslaw to French fries for my son. I personally like KFC whipped potato that is smooth and the whipped potato sauce is very tasty.

Dim Sum for Supper Smile Sep 23, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Cantonese/Hong Kong | Dim Sum

It's late at 11pm and we are hungry coz we have early dinner today. Hubby suggested to have dim sum at Wen Dou Sek. A little eatery at Geylang and a little difficult to find parking lots at times.

I ordered a sugar cane drink, like the usual sugar cane we drink at hawker centre, refreshing and sweet but the drink here are all served in those takeaway container and not cups or glasses.

 
One of the must order when we dine at Wen Dou Sek, the Crispy beancurd rolls, the skin is fried till crispy and the prawn they use are fresh and nice. Goes very well with their special chilli sauce. Their chilli sauce is sweet to taste and a little spicy, nice.

 
Hubby's favourite, fried carrot cake. The fried carrot cake here is soft and yet a little crispy outside. Nice.

 
I was craving for hot porridge and so I decide to order this claypot duck porridge and not the usual minced pork porridge. This is nice, the porridge is smooth with lots of shredded duck meats in the porridge, nice.

 
 
Recommended Dish(es):  Crispy beancurd rolls

Nice old school western food Smile Sep 22, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : American | Steaks and Grills

My sister in law suggested to have western food for dinner tonight and she had make reservation at this Mariners Corner restaurant that is located at the 1st floor of a building that is opposite to Pinnacle@Duxton. The interior is very old school and cosy and is like dining in the cruise cabin.

 
For the price of $4.80, we can top up to a complete meal that consists of coffee/tea/softdrinks, soup of the day and free flow of salad from the salad bar. I will strongly recommend to top up to this complete meal as the selection from the salad bar is quite huge and most of it tastes great especially the coleslaw that tastes a little sour with crispy lettuce.

 
Calamari ($6.00), nice, crispy on the outside.

 
Tiger prawn and fish combo ($19.50), my brother in law ordered this and commented that the cheese that covered the prawn is nice and both the prawn and fish are fresh.

 
Lobster and steaks combo ($25.80), the lobster they served is quite huge and fresh. The steak is grilled nicely to what I want at medium rare. Great dish for people whom love steak. The steak is soft and tender.

 
Spaghetti Marinara ($16.80), I did not try this but from the look, this looks yummy.

 
Do call for reservation as the place is quite limited and is packed during peak hours. A great place for dinning and the staffs here are quite patient and nice. And most importantly, the food here is reasonably priced and definitely worth coming for more meals again.

Dim Sum Lunch Smile Sep 22, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Cantonese/Hong Kong | Restaurant | Dim Sum | Seafood

I am meeting my friends to go Sentosa for a day of fun together and we decide to meet for early lunch at Bosses at Vivovity. I like the interior design of Bosses, it is modern design with a lot of black furniture like black seats, black tables, etc.

 
Century Egg Pork Congee ($16.00), a little pricey for this congee but is glad it tastes great. The congee is smooth with strong sweet taste of the pork. The century egg and pieces of shredded chicken enhances the taste of the congee. Quite a big bowl, just nice to be shared for 2 pax.

 
Century Egg Roll ($6.00), personally I don't like this dish. It is sort of like a cold dish with century egg and some other ingredients (which I cannot remember what else) together in a rice skin. It tastes a little weird and has a little wasabi taste. I do not recommend this dish.

 
Char Siew Rice Roll ($6.50), this is nice, the skin is smooth and the char siew filling is sweet, goes well with the no taste smooth skin. The light soya sauce that is pour over the rice roll is nice, not too salty.

 
Raddish pancake ($7.00), this is also nice and I will recommend to try this. The skin is crispy and the raddish filling is fragrant with strong taste of la cheong (Chinese sausages). Nice and yummy.

 
Custard Bun ($6.00), this is another dish that I strongly recommend at bosses. The custard bun here is so yummy that I can eat 2-3 at a time. The bun is soft and springy. The custard filling that is make from salted egg yolk is so smooth with strong taste of salted egg yolk. Most importantly is the custard is those flowing type, it flows out as soon as you cut the bun into half. A word of caution, do not bite straight into the bun, the filling is quite hot when it flows out. Super nice bun.

 
Har Gau ($5.00), the har gau here is nice, the prawn they use is quite large and is crunchy and fresh. One downside is that they do not have those typical dim sum chilli sauce but nevertheless, the chilli paste they provide is quite nice too.

 
Chicken Feet ($9.00), the chicken feet is cooked till soft and the sauce is nice, a little spicy.

 
The staffs here are quite nice and prompt, our tea is refilling promptly and the food is served quite quickly. Great place for family or friends gatherings but the food here is great and nice but is a little too pricey I feel. A once in a while indulgence is good.
 
Recommended Dish(es):  Custard Bun,Raddish Pancake

National Day Dinner OK Sep 19, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Fusion

We saw a deal online for buffet dinner at Royal Palm on National Day for $48 and a few of us decide to buy it to spend our first national day evening together. We are so looking forward to it as this is going to be a dinner buffet and we can get to watch fireworks while we dine. This buffet starts from 7pm to 10pm and it includes free flow of soft drinks. We do not have to get the drinks ourselves, the staffs here will walk around to help us pour and refill. A little slow at times but we are still quite ok with their service.

 
One of friend decide to buy this Singapore Sling Cocktail at $10 after many persuasion from the manager. This is an alcoholic drink, I don really fancy this kind of alcoholic cocktail but my friend manages to finish it.

 
The buffet spread is sort and serve according to various ethic group. Check out the spread they have for the evening.

 

 
These are some of the stuffs that I have tasted for the evening. The chili crab is one of the hottest for the night, often wipe out quickly when they refill. The crab does not have much meat but the sauce is nice. The carrot cake is a little dry but still taste ok with the sambal chili they provide. The fried hokkien mee is not nice, dry and too salty. The sushi is ok, the ingredients they use are fresh.

 
The satay is not nice, too dry but the satay sauce is nice and we eat it with the chicken wings which is crispy on the outside.

 
Gado Gado, quite nice with the nice balachan chili which is spicy and smelly enough and the nice satay sauce. I like this balachan chilli so much that I even dip it with crackers and the other food.

 
Food choice is a little disappointing with not much choice but we like the feeling of getting to eat and watch firework at the same time.
