Have been eating lots of nice food for the past few days.

Friday
Had supper with my Kumon colleagues on friday night. Finished work at 10pm and the five of us headed to Geylang for 田鸡粥 (i supposed its called frog leg porridge) Thanks kelvin who drove us there (he is always so kind to drive us around for supper and to drive each and every one of us back home. Thanks!) The 田鸡粥 is so nice.. We ordered 5 田鸡 (i supposed) cos kelvin is the one who ordered. haha.. two pot of porridge, lime juice (super sour) and a plate of kang kong. Its yummy delicious. the kang kong is hot and spicy and we had the 田鸡 divided into two portions (one with chilli, one without) The one with chilli is so shiok. when you mix the sauce with the plain porridge, it tastes so GREAT. Had a nice supper there and it costs us $56.70. I wanna bring my mum and shun there one day...

Sunday
Shun came to fetch me ard noon and we made our way to Marine Parade. Initially wanna eat the Katong Laksa along Katong Rd but we abandoned the idea and head towards the marine Parade hawker center. But we happened to pass by the famous laksa street on our way to MP. (i wanna try the laksa there!!!)

Parked the car (opps!! is van) and we went for our lunch (at 3pm) hohoho.. I had the Fried Hokkien prawn noodles and Shun had 猪杂汤 (pig intenstine soup). The soup is very 入味 and is sweet.. Thumbs up. The prawn noodle is also very delicious just that their serving appearance is not that good.. hahaha.. And the chilli is a bit sweet but overall is still not too bad. I'm very particular abt the taste of hokkien prawn noodle cos good prawn noodle is very 入味. You won't feel that the sauce and the noodle is detached, they should blend in together and produce a smoothing effect on the noodles.

Went Parkway Parade after lunch. Shopped around and surprisingly, i din get anything!! Wanted to get formal shirt from G2000 but it doesn't seem cheap (despite the sales) and nice. But i psycho Shun to get one long sleeves shirt from G2000 instead. He dun have any formal clothings and since he will be starting his sch this aug, i assured him that a long sleeve shirt is essential in his course of study.. hahahaha.. And its dirt cheap. Only 29.90 and that is before discount. and there is 30% discount so it ended up only $20.90. Why is it so unfair?? Guy's shirt is so much cheaper than the gals!!! Gals one cost at least $39 for one long sleeve shirt!!!

Dinner was at East Coast Park Food Centre.. Yippie Yeah... While on our way to the carpark of the food centre, we need to pass thru a long stretch of road along ECP and that road has lots of humps. And my dear shun was so engaged in our conversation that he din slowed down while driving towards one hump. he only realised that there is a hump ahead when we have already landed on the hump. The very next moment was like riding on the roller coaster. Sort of like being thrown out of your seat. It scares me more because Shun anticipated this to happen...
After the scaring incident, we finally reached the carpark.

Managed to find seats once we entered the hawker center. We ordered 5 chicken wings (the stall that we have to queue), oyster omelette (not so nice, the egg seems dried), chilli stingray and coconut drink. Don't underestimate the volume of the food. We thought we would still be hungry after the meal but we were WRONG. We were so full. Think its because of the $10 stingray.. I love fish...

The moon for the night is nice though its partially covered by the thin layer of clouds.

Monday

Went Downdown East on Monday. Not for chalet, neither is it for Wild wild wet. We went there just to eat the Chicken rice. You din see wrongly. We drove there all the way simply to indulge in a meal of chicken rice. The famous Chatterbox chef (the creator of the $18++ chicken rice set of Marina Mandarin) has started his own chicken rice store in the Downtown East fod court selling his famous chicken rice to us (folks who dun wish to spend so much money on a plate of chicken rice) The stall is filled with queue. Shun and I ordered a plate of chicken rice and one chicken rice set (the set included one additional dish of Thai tofu). The rice is VERY NICE. Each grain of rice is so detachable. When you bite them in your mouth, you can feel each and every grain of rice. Amazing feeling. The soup and chilli are nice too. the chicken meat is so-so. Not that tender but they served them in rice-wine. I expecially love the RICE. The guy you saw on the pic is the famous ex-Chatterbox's chef. His stall's name is Mr Chicken Rice at Downtown East food center.

After our satisfying lunch, we went Tampines Mall. had a hard time finding parking lots because Shun's van cannot enter multi-storey capark that has a height limit of 1.9m and below. I dun really understand the mindset of HDB. I saw one multi-storey carpak at Tampines that has a height limit of 1.8m. OMG. Where do the HDB want cars of a higher height, mini-vans and lorries to park? We had a hard time locating a suitable parking lot.

Finally after much attempt, we parked it under one of the HDB flat. Walked over to tampines mall and shopped around. Din get anything again!! (save money) Like the flipflop in BATA ($29.90~ guess i'll get it soon... hohoho) After shopping, we went to Tampines library and borrowed a few books.

Dinner was to be at Lau Pat Sat as Shun's uncle asked him to go there as they will be having dinner with their China relatives who are here for holiday. But the time is still early and so we went shopping at Compass Point first. Saw the flip flops at Bata AGAIN.. Was so tempting to purchase but i'm in a dilemma. Cos there were two designs that i like. I'm deciding on which pair to get. Feel like getting both but its kinda crazy (that will cost me $60) so i ended up not getting them.

Drove to Lau Pat Sat after that and met Shun's uncle, uncle's wife, his aunty, grandma, his cousin and the china relative. We thought there will be like a few of them but ended up only one girl. We had satay (yummy!! with the peanut sauce), rojak, stingray (again!) but this time round we tried the one with no chilli, kang kong, omelette, lala (super nice!!), BBQ prawns (big and fat)

We bade farewell to them after dinner and Shun drove me home. I had durian when i reached home.. hohohoho.. My mum is a durian lover and she kept buying durians these days..

I feel like a queen these few days enjoying good food. But i know i'm gaining more weight as well. hack care, Nice food is life!! hohohohho..
