Was deciding where to have dinner when we walked past soup broth asia and they had a couple set at $20.90 with 2 soups, 1 meat, 1 veg, 2 bowls of rice and one complimentary lemongrass dessert.

The soup portion was huge!!!! Giant glass bowl, probably 1.5 times of the hawker kind. But the soups were a tad too thick and sweet. I had snow pear with pork ribs and my sister had 10 treasures. 10 treasures is probably the healthier choice because it has no meat inside and it has mushrooms, lotus roots and alot more!! I saw some people having the cabbage one which didn’t look too bad. And yes you can choose any soup from the menu!! So it was really worth it. We had ginger sliced fish for our meat dish instead of chicken. Overall, it was quite affordable, I wouldn’t say the food is fantastic but also because there weren’t too many people at about 6pm. Anyway I doubt the flavour of the soup is thick because of MSG because we saw that it’s a MSG free kitchen. The soup tasted sweet probably because of the ingredients, like corn, carrots, pears, orange skin. So it’s like fruits in your soup! The lemongrass dessert was really refreshing after the thick soup.

Had dinner at food village because it was still early and there's no crowd yet. As I wanted to try some Vietnamese food, I ordered a bowl of pho with beef slices and beef balls ($7.50)! I like the soup as it is rich in flavour, yet light and it really whets my appetite a lot. The lime given adds some sour-ness to it, making it a very refreshing! Noodles are soft and chewy, the beef slices were cut thinly. I also love the beansprouts which were raw because they're so crunchy. Also got Vietnamese spring rolls and it tasted delicious even though I'm not a huge fan of raw carrots! Remember to dip with peanut sauce

Bakerzin for desserts after dinner! No photog allowed for the display of cakes though. We got a tiramisu cake ($6.50) and Blackforest Cheesecake ($6.50). The tiramisu is the bomb!! Blackforest Cheesecake didn’t do too badly, the first few mouthfuls were great but cheesecake being cheesecake, we got sick of it after too many mouthfuls. So I think it’s good to share. But the tiramisu was so nice I think anyone can polish it off. Bakerzin has very awesome desserts in my opinion and has never let me down before and I think it’s really a good place to catch up with all your friends! Good to give it a try! Note that plain water is not FOC!

Was shopping for some sports apparel at night and went to have katong laksa as supper after that! I've previously tried it at the katong outlet and was really liked the fact that one can just use a spoon to eat it! I got my laksa relatively fast after ordering!

I can't take much spicy food so I did not mix my soup with the chilli given. But nevertheless, I still like it a lot because the gravy is so nice! But I found the gravy to be a little diluted though. Even though it's late at around 9pm, but there's still a lot of people who come by to try the laksa!

I always had to get the hotdog bun when I'm at ikea because it's just so good!! For $1.50, there's the hotdog bun and one cup of drink which is refillable. The hotdog bun is really good and the bread is soft. The queue moves relatively fast as we're supposed to fill up the drinks ourselves with the cup given. They have curry puffs and donuts as well. And chicken wings, which are really good too, 6 for $7.50 or 2 for $3 with a cup of drink. You can add your own sauce (chilli, tomato, or mustard) at the sauce station!
