Went Oriole for lunch after a hot yoga session, I was so hungry and wanted to order everything on the menu. I had St. Louis’ pork ribs $28, not only have the usual sweet and tangy taste this ribs tasted more Asian with the sambal matah along side, ribs were braised till tender and fall-off-the-bone. Served with perfectly roasted puffy sweet potato and fresh crunchy tossed greens) Superb!
I thought of having a light sweet ending but I can’t resist the temptation and ordered a Oriole knickerbocker glory $14 ; smooth and luscious triple chocolate & vanilla ice cream with sweet brandied cherries, crunchy almond cat's tongue and crispy double chocolate cookies.

While at Shaw Towers, friend wants to blanjah me Thai Food so we went to Ah Loy as I have good impressions of it from the other branch I dined in.

We ordered Thai Sweet Chilli Chicken, Tom Yum Soup, Butter Calamari , Fried riceThe Butter Calamari , one of their signature dishes is well fried and it’s chewy texture is just right unlike the undercooked ones which never seems to be possible to chew through. Coated with butter and spicy chilli kickstarts the appetite ready for more!Thai Sweet Chilli Chicken has a layer of crispy batter , crunches into the tender meat which is very juicy and soaked with a dipping of mild sweet thai chili at the bottom. Tangy tom yum soup with fresh seafood was vibrant orange with the colour contrast of green garnishings made the visual appeal grade and did not disappoint in the spicy appetizing taste as well.Fried rice was alright, but I didn’t like how the prawns sizing were inconsistent and could have been more well balanced and if the meat/eggs and raisins were well mixed into it. Has potential, but this one got careless.

K-Food, K-Pop, K-Bar all in one ! this hip and cool hangout with live performances and is powered by fast and friendly staff.
We ordered: Seafood Toppoki and Fish Cake Stew.

The seafood toppoki was a marriage between the flavours of sweet and spicy, sea (prawns) and land (rice) , the prawns was fresh and crunchy, peeling off the shells was a "sea" breeze (sign of freshness), and rice cake toppoki is chewy and a familiar local feeling like kueh kueh.

When it came to the Fish Cake Soup (Ohdengtang) , bubbling in boiling heat made it look visually appealing, only to get my hopes high up and the mixed fish paste/cake stew becomes a bit too bland for my liking. It's like steamboat but with just fish, I wished there was pork strips for me to throw in to cook! However, they are very generous with the ingredients as it almost overflows out of it.

Like the quiet and peaceful Ann Siang Hill in the afternoon, went for a cup of tea and cake with hubby at Kki. We had Mont Blanc, tall tangle strands of thin flavorful thin chestnut puree with icing sugar looks like a mountain covered with snow. Cut the mountain apart to reveal the sweet and smooth chestnut paste and light fresh cream in the centre. Visually neat looking Tiramisu feels the air with aromatic coffee smell, moist sponge covered with creamy and silky mascarpone cheese topped with a layer of bitter cocoa powder, Heavenly !

Meeting my 2 pretty cousin ‘Dim Sum Dollies’ (Will get chop after I post this cos making fun of their figure) They told me eating dim sum is okay as most of the stuff is steamed (haha). We went to Crystal Jade at Great World City. Ordered fried noodle, steam prawn dumpling, Siew Mai, Braised Chicken Feet, Dumpling soup, Beancurd skin ball, Shui Gao.

Oh my, where do I begin, overall their dim sum is all fresh, well cooked, piping hot and delicious.Even the beehoon was smooth and QQ and tasted of high quality fit for a chinese wedding banquet. My favourite would be the braised chicken feet because it’s soft and ‘collagenish’ the skin slip off easily from the bone.

Crysal Jade and Dim sum is one of my many favourite things in the world and I definitely will return or check out the rest of their other branches.
