While shopping at vivocity, we do not know what to eat for lunch. After going through the directory, we still ended up at Thai Accent =p
Just the both of us, we ordered
Tom Yam(again) – S$9.90
Baked Honey Pork Ribs - S$14.90
Mango Salad with Cashew Nuts - S$9.90

Baked Honey Pork Ribs is another all-time fave for me. Nicely baked in honey and the meat is so soft, one lick and it will melt off from the bone and slip down my throat! Its a waste that everytime I fail to mouth the meat longer just to get the fragrant last! lol
The Mango Salald is too sour for my liking. But it’s a hit for my wifey. The thai sauce in the veg salad create a pungent strong enough to ward off all spirits. Lol. For sour fans, you can give this a try =)

Old School Delicious Chicken Rice Smile Jul 24, 2010   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Hainanese | Chicken Rice


Was recommended by a friend of mine, wifey and I decided to try it out.

The chicken comes in half or one whole chicken. Go for the white-skin chicken was its the top choice. The meat is tender, but most importantly, the skin is smooth and silky.

Try the Fu Rong Egg. It is a mix of fried egg with vegetables. It is very delicious when served hot but depending on the mood of the cooks, I was sometimes given wet fu rong egg which is not nice.

Rem to ask for their free chicken soup to go with your meal.

They also do serve steamboats for those into hotpots.

Their price is very reasonable and there will alway be this old man at the couonter using abacus to calculate your bill. How old school is that?

ice-cream Smile Jul 21, 2010

Categories : Fusion | Café | Ice Cream and Gelato | Kids-Friendly


Went there for a birthday treat and a glutton like me never knew that there was an Udder Outlet in Bukit Timah!

Went there on a Fri late evening for supper and it TOTALLY PACKED! Everyone is there just for the ice-cream.
Even though I have heard about Udders, but it’s my first time there to taste their ice-cream.
They actually let you try their ice-cream before you decided. Hm.. wonder if I can try again, and again, AND AGAIN? =D This is the type of service I like even though it may slow down the whole ordering process.
After trying til we were half-full, we decided to “re-try” some of their best-sellers
Durian(Mao Shan Wang)
Tiramisu
Fruity Strawberry
Choya Lime Umeshu Sorbet

My best for the best is definitely the Mao Shan Wang for personal reasons. Tiramisu is not far behind followed by Fruity Strawberry.
Choya Lime Umeshu is nice and unique but not to my liking as its far too sour for me. Not surprising my wifey loves it. That’s the reason why we opposite attracts =D

They also do serve ice-cream with waffles. Will surely return for them!

Low Fat Yogurt Smile Jul 21, 2010   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : American


Has anyone tried the low-fat, frozen swirl yogurt from Coffee Bean?

Wanted to get something healthy and cold on an extreme hot day and decided to try the Peach Mango flavored yogurt with almond flakes. (Regular - S$6.50)

One taste and I immediately know it’s not the normal fat-saturated cream but healthier, low fat cream.The peach mango flavor makes it refreshing and appetizing. What best it comes with almond flakes, making the eating process crunchier.

It has many other flavors and toppings to go with which I will try them one by one.

Thai Dessert Smile Jul 21, 2010   (Related Review)

Categories : Thai | Restaurant

We are back, with vengeance this time. Just me and my greedy wifey.

After not being able to try the dessert, we decided to do it for our high-tea. And we ordered

Mango Sticky Rice – S$6.90
Tapioca with Coconut Milk – S$5.90
Mango Sticky Rice is a great dessert to end of the dinner. But always rem to ask the waiter if the mango is sweet or not. If it is not, they will alway let you know and recommend other desserts instead.

We also ordered the Tapioca in coconut milk. The tapioca is just the right texture. Neither too soft nor too hard. But you got to dip it in the coconut milk to get the best combo. I knew I have "won" it AGAIN. lol
