Solo Urban

Wake up @ 1300hrs and couldnt sleep any more. Drive over to farrer road and park my car near the roadside.(Free parking)

Started my solo urban to places whereby data are stored.



Nomaally if required to take bus to orchard, will wait over here. Remember there was once my hands was cover with my saliva(think i didnt have tissue so wipe my mouth with my hand) and a small quarrel started as my hand touches her clothes.



Macdonal Nearby..
We were once here over night mugging for exam .. Those were the days whereby study together was such a fun activities.



QUeensway hawker centre.
Famous fried kway theow over here. Multiple quarrel here..Some of it ended up pretty badly. This is one of the place whereby we frequently visit for food.



Ikea..
Another food whereby we visit.. Friday have its famous fish filet... Hmmm ..This place seem peaceful ... But like here cos of the chicken wing and meat ball ..

K this sum of for the past ... Can data be erase off ??



Hmmm Move on to the alexander park connector.. She always wanted me to bring her here but always doesnt seem to be able to... And recently she just came here together with the club. I am always one step late. Guess might be just this down the road. ....



On top of the connector, super shack ...Long time didnt skate so much liaoz ...
After getting down from the connector, got lost in finding my way back to my car. She always hated my this poor sense of direction.



Reach island cremery in a super cannot make it state .. order the cookie cream which then i remember of the milk incident whereby the orea was also affected. The cookie for this ice cream is orea :(



After Ice cream , went up the gourmet teanery to look ard. She used to be standing at this place looking at the grocery...

After that, went back to my car @1700hrs and sum up the whole solo urban.

Then went over to ECP thinking to join the KTV session but unfortunately didnt know that it was cancel. No one tell me until karen msg back me @ 1855hrs..

Went back home then...

New Phase ???

Before i went to work, i Went to IslandCremery for a scoop of ice cream. It really bring back memories however things might be difference now. This is a place where things started ....Wanted to visit it once again... Have a fresh banana scoop. It really taste goods. To guys and gals out there, you might wanna come here o relax and chill out hehe.. In fact , i guess a number of people is doing it now hehe.

AFter that i went to Adam road for dinner as it was just nearby. QUeue up for the famous Nasi Lemak. However, didnt really have a appetite in it judging from my current mood haha....



At work, dun feel like eating any thing for supper. Told "Kiang" (the one going out to "lau pat sa" to buy food) that. However, it is really heart warming when he brought back a "Qing Teng", it seem that at least there is some one who is thinking of my welfare , care for my wellbeing.:)

Complaint about DBS......(Special Requested by Friend)

Why is it that OCBC doesn’t deduct $2 from savings account balances less than $500 but DBS savings account does??? It’s so unfair. We students are not even working and financially independent and they want us to keep $500 in our account or deduct $2 from us each month? Are they trying to chase us away by imposing a fee? Because we are non-profitable and a waste of resources is it? How much does it take to maintain an account anyway? So low-value accounts are more expensive to maintain than a higher value ones?

Don’t forget, in the future we are going to be earning lots of money ok. Is this how you treat your future lucrative customers???

As students, we are always spending money and not earning any. Shopping and luxuries aside, we need money for school fees, textbooks and TRANSPORT wtf. Do you think we would leave the $500 rotting in our accounts when it could be used to meet these expenses? Of course not lah! The only time money ever flows in to my account is during CNY. And even so, it doesn’t last long because I’ll just take it out to buy textbooks anyway.

Maybe I should just open a OCBC account and put all my money there. At least they won’t be so evil to eat my money just because it’s not at least $500. It’s better to put my savings in a bank that is not so money minded.

But then again, all banks are money minded. Aiyah. Maybe I should just buy a safe box wtf. Not like they have impressive interest rates anyway.

From Canton to Nippon!

We had a rocking good time yesterday at Settlers playing board games with our NUSSC mates. While the bunny game was fun, the chicken cutlet there is SERIOUSLY not worth $4. The piece of chicken was really miniature surrounded by what I can't even concede to be a mountain of fries. And I like fries. The fact they were not of a plentiful amount bothered me. So after that the whole bunch of us headed to Liang Court for a proper dinner. We decided to have udon, something soupy and comparatively cleansing after all that fried nonsense. Forgot the name of this establishment but it sold mainly udon dishes.

Bin Bin got this tsu-something-ki udon ($7). The main star was the egg. And he really liked the egg. hmm But it looked almost raw to me with that liquid egg yolk oozing from his lips.



I had this beef udon ($9)which was pretty good. The soup was really 'cheng' and the ingredients were present in abundance. I always always believe in generosity. The udon was pretty elastic and chewy too. Oh the beef was in really tender, soft thin shreds. Almost yoshinoya-like. Went well with the whole 'cheng' theme.



This was very affordable for a side dish. Steamed eel rice cake ($1.80). Not bad, not bad at all. Love the price.



Made a trip to crystal jade at marine parade previously. This was, on the whole a better experience as compared to Streets. Everything was pretty decent.
I had E-fu Noodles with Tofu and Minced Meat. Got the impression it was the Mapo Tofu kind based on the Chinese name of the dish. Apparently not. But I still liked it, being an E-Fu Noodles fan.



Binbin had porridge. SO healthy for a Macdonald fan! I found the porridge a little bland. But me no porridge fan so can't really compare.



This was heavenly! Crispy squid with salt and pepper! It was really tender and came with minced garlic too which really give it that extra ooomph! Gonna stick to this and wanton mee at crystal jade next time.

Streets at IMM

We went over to IMM to try out Streets since I read pretty good reviews in another food blog. The parking is free for the first 3 hours, a great plus point. Streets generally seems to serve some form of pseudo-hong kong teahouse fare. Service was alright. We made a mistake when ordering and ended up with 3 main courses. We were forced to dabao or finishing it as returning it to the kitchen was not an option, according to the manager. Yet, they did not mind us canceling our order for the siew mai. Hmmm. Siew Mai more sellable? Yea, I know it was our blunder but taking a step further by displaying exceptional leniency would have made loyal customers out of us, well ok, out of me specifically.
Ok. On to the Food.



Binbin got this Noodles with Pork Ribs. The ribs were pretty flavorful but according to him the noodles was bland and pretty ordinary.




This was our mistake. We wanted to order some peanut butter french toast but we wrote down the wrong number on the order sheet. oops. Imagine my expression when this Stone pot Seafood with rice appeared instead. While it looks pretty appetizing, it wasn't very good taste-wise. Bland and Boring.



This is what I ordered. Macau Fried rice with Chicken chop. Fried rice was average but I liked the chicken. Pretty juicy and nicely done.



The best dish of the evening was this kick-ass Fried Carrot Cake with XO sauce? Ya. Each small piece is deep fried. Super unhealthy but tasted so so crispy. I was in Carrot Cake Heaven. =)

Maybe we'll go back for the carrot cake again.

Lunch at Pier Eleven

Yeah! Today We went down to Marina South to have lunch at Pier 11. Seemed rather classy from the pictures on the net but heck, Binbin's got a $50 voucher so the price is gonna be extra decent. *grin* . Oh but the heavy rain was such a damner at the start but at least it was nice and sunny when we were done.

Appetizers!

Nice warm bread




Its actually really good. The butter too. Binbin was raving about wanting to eat this everyday.

Cesar salad with poached egg. looks bland eh.



Then the magic happens. Lush liquid yolk oozing out...







The best of food porn! Egg was great with the salad. It had like tiny bacon bits and thin slices of cheese and crackers. Some vinegar dressing. Binbin really liked this and it is rare that he likes something so healthy.

Next, This is the duck coufit? Its got duck mixed with some herbs wrapped in this crispy pastry. Nice ~. Was really moist and flavourful and I loved the tomato salsa dressing. But Binbin thought it was nothing great.





Entrees! I had the snapper with some veggie. Was actually pretty oily and tasted just ok. Somehow I swear I saw the word 'shrimp' in the menu...



Binbin had Tenderloin. It was a pretty fat piece. I thought it was ok. But he liked it. Meat eaters....




Deserts! As I had the executive lunch set, it came with the dessert of the day! Mixed Berries Crepe. It was nothing special. Binbin compared it to roti prata. Oh and the scope of ice cream was TINY. *growl*



Binbin had some apple thinging. It had a rather fanciful name. It was pretty nice and warm. And the scope of ice cream for this one was bigger...:p



Some weird fruit. Tasted like a cross between tomato and....cherry?



The man himself.



We are at... some really ulu place. This Pier Eleven is only accessible by car, taxi and bus 402.



Overall the food is not bad. I preferred the appetizers. Go if you are feeling rich or have discount vouchers.

Interesting stuff of the week ..hehe .. Went over this stall near my place for Kolo Mee...



A look at it . It is like wantan mee. However dun be surprise that the food noodles isnt the noodles that was used in wan tan mee...Taste abt the same tho ...



Guess the stall is set up to be interesting .. This as seen in the picture is the way they package the food .. Isnt this special ..haha

BinBIn: I think the food was not bad and is like wan tan mee even tho the noodles is what they called kolo mee...Notez: thier wan tan is freid and they dun have steam make one heheh... MY sister complain it was a disaster... I think this is the case as she ate in a later timing which then the noodles might not be as nice... So dude , do not leave food lying around .. Eat it before it turn bad...3.5/5

Noodles made of fish ???

Have you ever heard of noodles make of fish ?? TO me , this is something new ...There fore i went over to the place with xz on 5 Oct to have a go on the food ...



$3.50 for this fish made noodle .... Remember that they had normal noodles too so you had to remember to order correctly .. A taste of it seem special ... U can taste a bit of fish in it however the noodle is curly shape which is odd...



An Add on at the price $1 .. This come in a very small potion .This is the "Wu xiang" Which is made of fish too..Doesnt seem nice...



If u order the dry version , the fish ball comes separately .. Xz say this is very nice , and i totally agree too hehe

BinBIn: Interesting stuff.. If i were u , come try it as it isnt a common days stuff that u will see it moving around hehe... Basically it is unique , so come down here or show ur frienz this special stall.. However , if you eat this too often , guess it wont be any special liaoz and might not wanna come back too. There fore all in all i must say the food was ok only but it is unique hehe...3.5/5.

VIsit to Coronation Plaza Again .....

3 Oct ... Once again we went to the "Golden Roaster" at the coronation plaza as we had yet to try their lemon chicken .. This was so as the last time before we left we overheard lots of customer ordering it therefore wanna to try it to....



Lemon CHicken ..It is pretty ok as normal however the interesting part of it is that the lemon sauce is self service one .That mean u choose how much sauce u wanna add to the chicken .This is customization to me and it seem quite a nice try ...



Filiet ... This was ok too .. Not really impressive but a nice one to try if u suddenly had a urge for western food while over at that place.

The Place is over at the third floor of the building near a corner to the far side .. TO find it , you can just walk round the level 3 ...

Bin Bin : Once again visit here ... Food was ok but then judging by the standard, if i am around here i will eat it .However if i stay in far area, coming over here for this can be a much of a troubles......

PLaza Singapore, Pizza Hut

Went over to Ps pizza hut today cos i have a voucher that give me a complimentary free set of pan pizza which cost around $8.9 ..Although xz was reluntant to go due to the bad food experience that she had with them , she went to give it a try again ...



Add $3 more and you will get the soup of the day and a drink ... We make an add and the soup is chicken soup which taste pretty like any other soup that is serve by this sort of food outlet...



Ops the picture pizza is not complete ..hehe ...have a bit of argument before this pizza came therefore not in the correct mind set so forget to take the pizza in a whole ... Any way this is the pan pizza that is FREE due to my voucher .. As usual i order hawallian pizza which i think is the best from pizza hut ...



Oreint Baked rice... Guess pizza hut speciality still with its pizza hehe..This cost ard $9 ....

Binbin take : Pizza hut is more of a public associated outlet where every one can afford rather than a luxury quality pizza stall .There fore expects only the usual good pizza like hawallian etc... and dun expects anything more... My go is ... if you have a voucher then come here and dine in if not u can just call 62353535 to make a delivery and eat at the luxury of your comfort home and maybe enjoy television program ... 3/5 for dine in ...

XZ: Honestly, the food was just alright. I think their standards have not improved from last time, but at least it was maintained. The baked rice was supposed to be some recommended dish, with that cute little icon they placed next to its picture. But it tasted pretty mediocre to me. For all dishes, including the pizza, I must say have tasted better. Yet the meal was perfectly palatable especially since I was very starving. hehe.

Tiong Bahru Market / Food Centre

This is a great place that is always feature on television or aticles. Always wanted to come here to try up the famous dishes over here but do not have time ...But on 26 Sep afternoon , finally make my way here with xz ...



The chicken rice stall is crowded with alot of ppl so i went over to get one plate to try .... This cost around $3 although they has different pricing for different size ... The chicken rice i think quite ok , however i must mention i love the ginger sauce that come with it ...It is fresh and watery and it can be simply tasted without mixing with the chicken rice....



Xz had this bowl of Lou mee ... Although the famous Lou mee stall which i think is called 369 ?? is not opened so she choose this stall which is once again crowded with ppl ... I personally think that it tasted ok only however xz mention that the uniqueness is that u can customize the dish to certain degree like adding veneger etc ...



We still have some room for food therefore we order this plate of carrot cakes ... There isnt any queue here but i just feel like eating therefore order it ... As expected , with the no queue theory , it tasted normal only ...

Bin bin take: 4/5 for chicken rice .. 3/5 for lorz mee and 2/5 for carrot cake ..I guess this food centre is really a must go pplace..STepping into here u can feel all the food is calling you to eat them hehehe.
