We had dinner here again! We might have sworn off ordering their 卤肉饭 (braised pork rice), but we still wanted to try their 公仔面 (instant noodles with luncheon meat, egg and veggies)!


Their HK Lemon Tea~ It tasted like home-brewed lemon tea; not too bad!


Our 公仔面 (instant noodles with luncheon meat, egg and veggies) ($4.50)! Their version is slightly different; they used those korean instant noodles (We saw them cooking in the open kitchen!) instead of the standard 出前一丁 (my fave instant noodles!)

U can see that their version also has much more ingredients compared to the usual fried egg, luncheon meat and veggies! It wasn't too bad actually; comparable to the ones i had at xin wang and wong kok!

Baby and i went down to Changi Airport for a kaypo look around the new T3 the other day and i thought it would be a good time to finally try popeyes chicken!

There was previously only one popeyes chicken at T1, but there's now a new one at T3~ I just wish they'd open new outlets at places other than the airport though! (Thanx wenn for pointing out that there's another new outlet at the Singapore Flyer!)

We ordered a 2-piece chicken set ($6.45) each and chose cajun fries and coleslaw as our sides~

I was actually quite eager to try their chicken coz of all the good reviews they had but both of us didn't like it! The first bite reminded us of KFC's chicken (the spices used) but popeyes chicken's flavour was blander~

The subsequent bites only served to remind us how painfully dry and tough their chicken was! I dunno whether it's coz we caught them on a bad day or their standard has gone down but we would much rather have Arnold's or even KFC, thank u very much!

The only good thing was that their sides were pretty good. I liked the cajun fries and we loved the coleslaw! The savoury biscuits were alright, but i found it quite jerlat after a few bites~

In a nutshell, Arnold's Fried Chicken is still the best!

Remember these colourful cakes?


I remember how Mum used to buy these cakes by the box when i was a kid; i had fun choosing which ones i wanted to eat first!


U can only get these in the more traditional bakeries now~ I hope they won't disappear all together, along with those good old bakeries!

It was one of those rare days where Baby took a day off, so we cooked! We weren't sure what we wanted, hence the variety of food haha~ And yes that's eggs cooked in 2 different ways!


That's rosti with sour cream, scrambled eggs, a fried egg and sausages! Notice that the fried eggs' supposed to be in a heart shape? Haha~


I'm currently obsessed with gordon ramsay, so i wanted to use his recipe for scrambled eggs! The ingredients were pretty basic, except that i substituted crème fraîche for sour cream~ It turned out yummy! ^_^

Here's the video for the recipe!:

Went out with Mummy and bro the other day to catch a movie! But of coz, it's always important that we fill our tummies first! Mummy had wanted to have our lunch at Joaquim (porridge buffet in suntec) but we ended up having another porridge buffet in marina square's hotpot culture~

This is coz fate works in curious ways! Haha~ We were in marina square purchasing movie tickets before heading to suntec when we were handed this pamphlet where we were enticed by this $6.90 porridge buffet!

Since it's still a porridge buffet and being the cheapos good thrifty people we are, we headed straight for hotpot culture!

I was actually thinking how similar the food was to Rajah Inn while i was eating. My suspicion was confirmed when i was ready to take that picture coz right under their signboard were the words "Managed by Rajah Inn"!


There's quite a huge crowd during lunch hour; we almost couldn't get any seats! We shared all that we took; those were the usual suspects! The fried fish fillets were amazingly good though!


No i dun dare to eat fatty meats!


Their fried duck tasted strangely like sesame chicken!


Ooh u gotta try their lup cheong (chinese sausage) which tasted amazingly like bak gwa! All of us loved it!


U cannot tell, but these are the amazing (yes i do realise i'm overusing the word "amazing" in this entry) fried fish fillets! Crispy on the outside, tender and moist on the inside! Best consumed warm!


U can have their fried bee hoon...


Or sweet potato porridge (sweet potato nowhere to be found)! There's rice too, but we didn't have any~


Green bean soup for dessert! The green beans were all snapped up so all we got was the soup haha!


Another dessert alternative would be the watermelon!

In a nutshell, hotpot culture was slightly better than Rajah Inn, but the food's still rather average and the variety was what u would expect to find in a chup cai png stall except for a few winners like the fried fish fillets and lup cheong!

We didn't know what to watch so we just picked ah long pte ltd since neither of us watched it during the CNY period. We were so surprised it's still showing in theatres (only GV i think)!


Well it wasn't as bad as we expected (from all the bad reviews)~ Parts of the plot and some jokes were really lame, but it certainly didn't deserve the miserable 1/2 star rating it got in 8 Days!

Baby wanted to go to the IT fair the other day and we thought we'd stop by the bugis area for our lunch. And so we walked down liang seah street and settled for tong shui cafe after some contemplation~

I was about to snap this pic when that white car on the right drove in~ -_-")

I quite like their decor actually!:

Lovely, dun u think?
And the pink walls! I absolutely positively cannot resist that! (Unfortunately we cannot say the same for their food!)

The utensils on every table~

We were served salted peanuts once we were settled in. It's a great snack to have as we contemplate over the menu/write down our orders/wait for our food (it's quite a long wait!)~


Our iced milk tea ($2.88) arrived first; wasn't very nice as it's quite diluted!


Baby's cheese baked rice with chicken wings ($8.88)~ This was pretty awful; the fried rice beneath was dry, the chicken wing was mediocre and the cheese was tasteless and rubbery~ Baby had such a hard time swallowing his food!


That's my hotplate chicken chop with cream corn sauce ($11.88)~ I can sum this dish up with this conversation i had with Baby:

Me: 你知道这道菜最好吃的是什么吗? (U noe what's the tastiest in this dish?)

Him: 是什么? (What is it?)

Me: 鸡蛋。(The egg.)

The 2 ah siaos and i went to town to catch a movie the other day and ah siao mion suggested soup spoon for lunch!

That's ah siao mion's beef goulash soup~ I had a taste of it and actually... i can't remember how it tasted like now! Guess that speaks volumes!


That's my roasted pumpkin soup with toasted almonds~ It tasted kinda powdery and i didn't really like it that much!


That's ah siao milo's smoked ham and cheese sandwich~ She only let me taste the bread leh (which was nice) but i think she enjoyed her sandwich!


We shared a side of spicy wedges with cheese~ I liked it coz it's potato! Haha~

After lunch we caught The Leap Years!



I admit i wanted to watch the movie coz of ananda everingham! =D

It's been almost 8 months since we've had donuts from donut factory! I had a sudden craving for their double chocolate donut and so we popped into their outlet in novena since we were in the vicinity!

The novena branch operates cafe style rather like their previous suntec branch~ It's brighter here in the novena branch; better for taking pics! Heh~

We ordered a donut set ($5.50) which consisted of 2 donuts and a drink~ Double chocolate is a must! It was so chocolate-y i could hardly taste the bread haha~

Best consumed when warm!
Watch the warm dark chocolate ooze out as u cut/bite into it! Orgasmic sight, i tell u!


We didn't want to have any of their old flavours so we went ahead and picked one of their new ones; chocolate lemon cream heart~


The lemon-flavoured cream was light with the texture much rather like whipped cream~ I would have liked it better if it was custard cream or something!


We washed down our donuts with iced mocha which tasted just like coffee; no hint of chocolate at all! What's more, the staff had initially forgotten about our iced mocha until i asked for it~ -_-"
