干捞拉面 Smile Nov 18, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Noodles

I've never like my noodles to be in soups, so i will always/ or rather go for the dry kind.
And i particularly like the 'ganlaolamian' from hong hu express! I reckon it might be the china kind of bak chor mee!

Simple as it can be, its a dish that you can have for lunch and or dinner! And it will keep you yearning for more( trust me)

Brought my mum to try the noodles ( she dont normally eat food that she haven tried or eaten before, so i have to force her to eat this) we both had the same thing. And to my surprise, she actually like it.

Filled with minced pork bits in the 'ganlao' sauce which is poured over the ramen noodles and finishing off is 2 deep fried wanton and Fuzhou fishballs! Thou i would rather they wrap the wanton with more filling inside but nevertheless i still enjoyed my noodles! Their Fuzhou fishball is delicious. Basically, Fuzhou fishballs are fishballs with meat inside. And i dont know is it the nature of fuzhou fishballs or its only this stall, i could actually still find soup inside.(somewhat like xiao long bao)

To sum it all up, 干捞拉面 is a noodle that you can never wrong with! (just for me)

Was at azucar with 2 of my friends the other day. As we heard that it's a new open restaurant, we decided to give it a try! 
The ambience was nice with dim lightings, which made me really comfortable! 
So we were ahead to place our order, and to my surprise, the head chef actually came out personally to introduce the menu to us!  As usual, being a super fussy eater, my friend wanted carbonara which isn't in the menu, and the chef agreed to make it for us! (Something I feel that restaurants should adopt! ) He also mentioned that the buffalo wings are good so being a typical singaporean, yea I ordered !
After waiting about 15 Mins for our food, the service staff told us that the restaurant is having ladies night, and that I will get 4 free cocktails(:. That really makes my night a perfect one! 
Overall I'm very happy and statify with the service, and food!

Chicken and Beer buffet Smile Nov 13, 2013

Categories : Korean | Korean Fried Chicken

 
What can be as good(sinful) as Chicken Up when they offer not only Beer buffet but also chicken buffet! Chicken Up is a Korean restaurant/ bar located around tanjong pagar area. Brought to you by Koreans bringing you authentic Korean feast.

Went there with a Korean friend of mine, as she said that the boss was friendly and she feels at home whenever she patronize the place. And i was surprise by the ratio of Koreans to Singaporeans in the restaurant, there was obviously more Koreans.

So we went ahead with the Beer and Chicken buffet, frankly speaking, i was never into eating fried chicken when im out drinking. But my friend insisted that we order the combo. Indeed i didnt regret and ended up ordering more than i can take it. The chicken was just so good.
What happens when Korean meets Korean; it only means that there will be more food on the table! The boss actually gave us food on the house which gave me a very good impression of the hospitality of the place!

Messily Delicious  Smile Nov 11, 2013

Never judge a book by its cover. As all Singaporeans know, beach road scissor cut scissor is famous for their messily nice curry rice with overwhelming sauce being poured over. Be it having it at the stall itself or tabaoing it back home, their rice is a must for me (comfort food).

Had it tabaoed for dinner yesterday, leaves me yearning for more! As im someone that doesnt really like fried chicken wing so i went for their chicken cutlet, deep fried prawn, egg and of cuz their chap chye. Accompanied by the 3 usual sauce, yea only 1 word umami!

Egg was normal, chicken cutlet was up to standard and my fav would be the deep fried prawn. Its my first time trying their prawn but i guess i really do like their prawn batter better than any other prawns ive tasted before. Its like the chinese style for prawn tempura,
our way of eating it soggy with the curry and all the other sauce on it. Would recommend to do take away as the rice would be submerge with all the goodness of the dish!
 
Recommended Dish(es):  Deep Fried Prawn,Chicken and pork cutlet

Generally a Hokkien mee lover and am on the hunt to find the best hokkien mee in town (personal preference).

Tried Tiong Bahru Yi Sheng Fried Hokkien Mee at ABC market for dinner yesterday. Just the queue itself was already 20 mins! People packing packets and packets of hokkien mee in front of me. And personally i like their idea of packing the noodles in those brown colour type of paper as it will retain the broth and the moisture of the dish.

The Noodles:
Their noodles is not much like the kind of Hokkien mee i like( the wet type) but this stall is amazing as their noodles is the soggy kind which i dont get to eat it after my secondary school years! The beansprouts is basically so soggy that you dont even have to chew on the sprouts to swallow!
Another point i like about the noodles is that they use thin been hoon instead of the thick bee hoon that most of the stalls in singapore uses. As thin bee hoon would absorb the broth better compared to the thick ones, so it will somehow 'burst' when you chew them.

The Chilli:
Definitely one of the best chilli i have tasted for hkm. The stall owner actually fried the belachan with 'hei bi' before serving it.

As the saying goes; good things are worth the wait.
