Prawn Noodle Smile Aug 23, 2010   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Hawker Centre | Noodles


Prawn noodle is one of my favourite hawker cuisine.
They must have tasty soup to qualify as good prawn noodle.

The one here is one good example. The thick soup mixed with some chili powder makes it all the more tasty.

It comes with just two big prawns and the yellow noodle has the pork-lard cubes and chili powder as toppings.

The whole dish is just so apppetizing.

Something that is filling enough Smile Aug 23, 2010

Always prefer Carl's Junior or Burger King as Mac bergers are alway tiny and never filling enough for me.

But things changed with MacD's Quarter-Pounder!
Comes in two layers of thick slices of beef, it has two slices of cheese to go with.
Together with the tomato and lettuce, it makes the whole berger tasty and importantly, filling.

Do remember to have them hot. It will taste bettertongue

Fast-Food real chicken Smile Aug 22, 2010   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : American | Restaurant | Steaks and Grills

Always prefer Kenny Roger than KFC anytime even though Kenny Roger is pricer.

The reason is because the chicken served is tasty and big. Real Big. Not like those chicken expanded by the layers of flour deep-fried in KFC. Unhealthy!

Evey meal comes with wonderful side dishes, including Mash Potato, Potato Salad, Sweet Corn. All are nice, esp the potato salad. Served cold but not with over-whelming layers of cream.

The soft butter muffins is a MUST-TRY. Served hot, it goes well if you ordered any soup.
I prefer to have them plain to taste the butter flavor.

Thai Food again Smile Aug 22, 2010

Just for the two of us, we decided to try something to compare with Thai Accent.
We ordered Tom Yam Soup, Green Curry, Phad Thai and Red Ruby. Pretty much what we will order in Thai Accent.

The Tom Yam is definitely not as good as Thai Accent. It is comes in thick base and not as spicy and sour as Thai Accent. Bu the seafood is still fresh and good.

The Green Curry is somehow a little better than Thai Accent because of the more fragrant gravy. Also, it has more filling than Thai Accent.

The Phad Thai is good and tasty. Cooked with sufficient spice, it makes the entire meal appetitizing. Most importantly, Phad Thai is also good for health.

Red Ruby is lousy. Comparing this with the Red Ruby from Siam Kitchen, this is way out of the way. The "Rubies" are cold and hard, like just being taken out of the freezer. The base is cremey and sweet. So-so only.

Quality Japanese Food but pricey Smile Aug 22, 2010   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Japanese | Ramen

Looking for quality japanese buffet?
Shin Yuu is the answer at a expensive price of S$49++

Was there with colleagues for a celebration, we ordered so many till I forgot what we had after the dinner! And if you have more that 10 diners, you can request for a private room!

Picking a few of the many good ones, the Ebi Tempura is one of my top fave.
Fresh prawns being one thing, the layer of deep-fried flour is light and not-so-oily, making the Ebi Tempura appetizing. Comes in a plate of 6.

Chawanmushi is another of my personal fave. Filled with little mushrooms and topped with fish roe, it is soft and tasty. The egg is not too dense making us not sick of it. Thisis very important, especially if you are going for the buffet.

I will return with the next post when I gather more photos. =)

In summary, this place has good quality japanese food even though you do not have much variety.
