8 Tbsp of Peanut Butter
7 Medium Bananas
1 Mooncake
After reading from some blog about this place, I decide to give it a try! So after my swim, My growling tummy got to tahan until I reach Novena! There are many blogs saying that this place serve one of the best chicken rice, some even say that this is the best in Singapore! A word too "big" to use i guess... Usually this place is very crowded in the evening, probably due to its good location and everyone is hungry after a day's work, and anything taste better when you are hungry...
The garlic paste looks good, I scooped some into my spoon and ate it... there's sesame oil fused in it.
Ahh.... Im hungry, why is the food not here yet??? So i drank the soup... Well the soup taste very "MSG friendly"! so there I am..slurping the soup away until the chicken rice arrives...
Chicken Rice is here! finally... waiting time about 10min on a non-peak afternoon. The rice is very different from other chicken rice outlets. You can see and feel the individual grains in your mouth as you chew on it... very chewy. I must say that the rice is one of the better ones I had so far...
Lets zoom in to the Chicken! The chiken looks good on the picture, but it doesn't taste as good as it is. I like Hainanese Chicken whereby the meat is "cold", and the meat is not as tender as it should be... I should have eaten at The Yishun Chicken Rice after my swim. The $6.00 chicken rice is cheaper and nicer than this $9.40 Chicken Rice. (Price is for 2 person). The 40 cents is for the wet tissue.
My Bird Day is coming, but haven't come. But treat has come. Also good for me.
Lotsa cheesezzzz Sandwich - A sandwich made with lots of cheese! Cheddar cheese, mozarella cheese and parmesan! 3 cheeses melted into one. I chose those, cos i love cheese! The cheese is nice, but it will be nicer if they are more generous with the amount... and the tip to eat this is... eat while its hot! If its cold, its all hardened, and the the shiok factor drop by a factor of 5.
MS ate this... Botak Burger!
Some Beef sausage... So Big la... and its very juicy inside... I cannot tell the difference between beef and pork sausage. Any guru can teach me? They taste the same leh...
My main! All time my favourite. Cajun Chicken. Its th healthiest amongst all, for its chicken breast, good for my post work-out that day! heh. and its not oily... its thick and filling too! The sides were Mexican rice and Pasta Salad. Both of which were so-so...
Treater ordered the same thing as me, but his sides was spicy fries and coleslaw....u so boringgggg... haha!
I got home-made mooncake from Biaos, someone whom I met over the forum and goes to the same gym as me! Thanks Biaos for the wonderful snow skin mooncake! Immediately after my gym, I took half a mouthful so that I can take a nice shot of it! Inside is white lotus, but it has a nutty flavour... i wonder why... and it also have yolk taste.. thou i dun see any round yolk...
Beef Egg Sandwiches - I have a very heavy breakfast - 2 breakfast in fact, so i ordered sandwich for my lunch. I like the way the beef is cooked, still chewy and tender. This is so simply yet so good. But the best Beef Egg sandwich I had was in Jusco, Johor.
E ordered this, I think its Nissin Noodles... veryyyy big and verryy cheap... I tried the soup, and its actually not as spicy as it looks, and its pretty good.
There was some promotion going on during that period, so there was a special menu! The menu namely consist of French Fries or Mushrooms served in different styles. French fries is a no-go for me, so poor E has to eat muchroom with me. lol.
E ordered Yuan-Yang ( a beverage of coffee and milk tea), I don't want consume any calories from drinks, but the server gave us a one more extra... *evil grinz*, which means i got it for free! I had a sip, and the rest was for E!
This mooncake is from my Sister and Bro-in-law... came abit late! Knowing that I am a health freak, they bought low sugar one! Even though it states low in sugar, less sugar simply means that there are more of other "stuffs". Looking at the nutritional value card that comes along with the mooncake, one piece still contains 800Kcal. But taste wise, it taste less oily, you know some mooncakes you can eat them and you can feel the interior of your mouth oily and all...
Tada!
with a sticker stating reduced sugar!
Scrawny, skinny, boney --- Achieve this simply by starving yourself and you look like a POW during WWII. Some people go to this extent just to be skinny, but it is unhealthy! Not only is this unhealthy, you have to forgo the goodness of food! restricting yourself to less than 1000Kcal a day... that's sad man...
White Lotus Mooncake with Double Yolk @ $48, after discount @ $40
Goodwood Park Tote Bag...
hidden with 2 boxes of mooncakes - their famous durian mooncake and the assorted snowskin mooncake. The packaging is very nice, 4 big pieces of mooncakes packed in a long box, the box even has a magnetic catch to seal it!
Everything looks so nice... but is it nice to eat?! The answer is NO! Their durian mooncakes used to be durian flavoured snowskin wrapped around real authentic durian. But this year the standard has dropped drastically. Serious! The snowskin is "nua" or soggy, and the durian paste taste more like those long long durian cake which we can buy from M'sia... I dunno if is it that their standard has really dropped, or is it inconsistency in their standard and i happen to kena the lousy batch...
