Cheap Seafood Lunch! OK Nov 03, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Singaporean Chinese | Seafood

Bought this deal for Rabbit Brand Seafood Delicacies at Boat Quay from Groupon - $7.50 for $15 worth voucher.

 
And we got what you see in the picture for just $8.75, each pax paid less than $5.

The food here was really cheap, coupled with the coupon we got, it was a steal!

In case it's not clear, we got each a soup, a dessert and rice with chicken,Chinese sausage, baby abalone, scallop & mushroom. In addition, we shared a spinach tofu and shisamo side dishes, and there was free flow of tea too. A very satisfying lunch indeed!

Mentai Mayo Sushi (6 pcs) - $6.80

As we were pretty hungry, we ordered a side dish while waiting for the mains to come. I have this soft spot for mentai ~ anything with mentai or called mentai something in most places are pretty yummy. And so we ordered the item in the menu with mentai lor, knowing well that it would mean addition burden to the weight as it can be categorized as fatty food ~_~"

As expected, mentai never disappoint me and the pricing was pretty decent too! =)

 
Beef Curry Rice - $16.80

I must say, the beef was pretty good ~ tender & juicy!

The new trend!  OK Nov 03, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Hawker Centre | Desserts and Cakes

 
This is the start of the soya bean curd craze at Old Airport Road Hawker Centre. The queue at the stall is ridiculously long. To manage the crowd, they even have 2 or 3 stalls at the same hawker centre. And I'm not even counting the competitor stalls selling similar bean curd.

The bean curd here really tasted very different from the traditional one, so I dun think it's fair to compare this with the normal soya bean curd. I will still have my usual craving for the traditional plain & smooth bean curd, topped with sweet syrup.

Here, the soya beancurd tastes more like solidified soya milk. Dun believe me? Try leaving it in the open or just stir it, until you see some liquid residue. The liquid tasted exactly like soya milk.

Like it or not, all up to individuals. It just offers another variety of soya bean curd, besides the traditional one and the egg bean curd. Coolz!

Nando's  OK Nov 03, 2013

Categories : Portuguese | Steaks and Grills

The chicken here has different degree of spiciness, and oh ya, we are not spicy eater, so we decided to be "coward" and ordered Lemon & Herb.

 
1/4 Chicken + 2 side dish ~ $13.90

 
I believe in tasting food at it's most natural form, with minimum seasoning possible. Coz then we can really taste the skills of a good chef. If we need chili for everything, then everything will merely taste the same mah. But I dun deny that some spice will help to heighten the taste of food. Most importantly, you must enjoy the food according to your preference, whether it's spicy or not.

The chicken was a tad dry, not as tender as expected. Side dishes wise, okay but as an advice, maybe it's not a brilliant idea to order 2 potato sides, reason being too filling la!

 
Cataplana ~ $18

This dish was like tomato rice with stir fried vegetables and chicken. The chicken here tasted better but was not given a lot, buried by all those vegetables (garlic, capsicum, carrot etc) which we dun really eat.

Overall, food was okay although there was no wow factor to really draw me back. It will be just another restaurant that I will probably patronize if I need food. So much about the hoo-ha when it just started. Oh well, I suppose I'm not easily impressed. =p

Pan Seared Diver Scallop ($18.90)
Seared scallop on garden leafy green and finished with salmon roe and chive beurre blanc

We adored the scallops, which were succulent with the right texture! It would have been if they were bigger, but I guess they were good enough. Hey, no complaints since we were paying almost half price. And the creamy sauce with salmon roe complement the scallops very well.

 
Confit of French Duck Leg ($26.90)
Served on smooth potato mash with grilled poached pear and tangy orange sauce

The skin was crispy alright and the meat was tender to the fork, which easily fell apart with a gentle stroke. On the contrary, I though the side dishes were such a delight ~ The poached pear was nicely grilled which released all the sweetness in it and the potato mash was creamy & smooth.

 
Warm Banana Cake with Lemongrass Ginger Ice Cream ($8.9)
Served with caramelized banana, nuts & mixed berries

I was excited to try this unique ice cream made of spices instead of the normal fruits and chocolate ingredients. Fortunately, it didnt fail me and I quite like the refreshing taste. Then again, I guess not everyone can accept this.

On the other hand, the banana cake was warm and sweet. So together, the ice cream will neutralize the sweetness and turned out to be a perfect match! Thumbs up!
