    I was there for the poh piah.... It was soo.... Good..

    I always loved poh piah because its healthy with lots of fibre.... I mean how many yummy food out there are healthy and yummy at the same time....

    I totally love the idea of wrapping my own poh piah.. I think its fun.. and I can really put the stuffs i want to eat into a nice packet before i stuff it into my mouth.... Poise.. Aside...

    You only need to pay for the pot of shredded nicely stewed tunip or some call it bangkwang... The skin, sauce, vegetables and crispy stuff is all free flow, however, only ask for refill when you can finish them... We don't want to waste such good stuffs....

    The skin is freshly made from the factory next door... Its fun to watch the SHI FU.. make the skin after which when u eat it, you could totally appreciate the freshness and I could almost taste the Q-ness of the skin......

    The tunip.. or bang Kwang is nicely stewed.. Soft yet crunchy, full of flavour especially the baby shrimps totally added to the richness of this dish... Some halfed prawns... which taste like poached prawns... is of a normal size..

    So here's how it goes....
    1) Take a yummy skin.. One will do.. Sprayed some sweet sauce,chilli and my favourite minced garlic.

    2) Add a leaf or 2 Veg

    3) Put 2 spoonful of bang kwang and lace on the prawn..

    4) Absorb the beautiful sight....

    5) Wrap it up with folding the sides first and then the bottom and roll it up to the top...

    6) Lick your fingers and TUCK IN.. after which... lick your fingers again...

    Mmmmm... I'm hungry now...

    Totally educational, healthy and fun experience.... Its a must go.. especially with kids... Its fun and yummy plus it does not burn a hole in your pocket...

    By The Way... they serve LiangTeh in a guinness stout glass.. Which is so cute.. heehee!

    How about some gasless cooling stout???

    I love fast-food.. I'm the FASTFOOD Generation.....
    I used to remember during my schooling days... That my best excuse to have a fast food lunch is to tell mum and dad that i'll be studying with my friends at Burger Kings... but now.. i am so pissed... with kids studying at restaurants, taking up space and making so much noise....

    Well we all grow... however... till today I am still intrigued with the whopper.... I love the thick beef patty with plenty of veg and sauces.. Though messy to eat.. it is always enjoyable to finish one whopper... Yes... I do have a Big Mouth and a HUGE Appetite...

    The outlet at the Amara is quiet during in between meal hours.. but to be avoided during lunch hours.... Its a nice setting, with plentiful seats and very friendly staffs. It’s not noisy and the best thing is that you don't see much students studying there... Who knows... we might meet some cute white collars here :)

    With their juicy burgers and low salt fries... I guess burger king is much healthier to eat then other fast food...

    A MUST TRY..... is the croissant wich... I love this... It’s Soft, Juicy and Buttery.... Now they serve this all day..... So I don't have to rush for the breakfast set anymore.. How wonderful.....

    I was craving for ice-cream the other day and after looking around many other ice-cream cafes.. I have decided on Anderson's of denmark... Matter of fact.. I was a great fan of anderson's Ice-Cream Shakes... I used to buy them as a walk-around dessert in a cup while my mum shops.....

    The creamy and rich flavoured ice-cream with thick milk.. though its not very slimming.. but is smooth on the throat and very fulfilling....
    I love chocolate chips shakes... as you will have bits of chocolate chips to munch on... If not get the one with bits of brownies... It sure makes you a happie girl....

    Quote ME: NO Woman can refuse a good tub of ICE-CREAM....

    I mean.. Me and My GAGA Girlie Pals go for ice-cream when we are in mourning or when we have something to celebrate about..... What more.. if we have nothing to do but to laze the afternoon away.....

    Back to the ice-cream.... When I was there.. i ordered 4 naked scoops in a waffle bowl.. Just NAKED..... I the fact that it came along with a mini jug of chocolate sauce for me to drizzle on top... Very Heart Warming.. and theres this piece of chocolate in the shape of their mascot......

    I ordered.....
    1) Rum and Raisin - My favourite.. Very rich and have just the right amount of raisin...

    2) Fruits of the Forest - Slightly sour but very fruity, with bits of frozen berries in a lovely hue of purple.... Exotic...


    3) Double Chocolate - Very CHOCOLATELY.. But i like it because it not too sweet and feels a little bitter to taste... Its real DARK CHOCOLATE... NICEY...

    4) Blueberry - My childhood favourite... creamy with streaks of blue excitement.... Exotic

    The couches are comfy and you can really laze there watching people walk by... Its also a good meeting place for friends or perhaps a good place to wait for your girlfriend when she shops....

    Nice, spacy and Easy to hangout place with value for money and yummy ice-cream :)

    335. Red Lacquer

    Leenie Pigs Leenie Pigs says:

    I was looking for a good place for lunch the other day with my partner and we came by the Red Lacquer....

    Its a beautiful place with Red Lanterns, Red Lacquered tables and chairs, not to forget the great view from the large window pane.. overlooking whats left of the scenery in JURONG Industrial area.

    The menu was a simple fare... They serve traditional food like prawn noodles, fried oyster egg, nasi lemak, curry and other peranakan stuffs. What i really like is that they took the effort to write the names in the peranakan spellings.. Its interesting and educational for me.

    We ordered one chicken curry nasi lemak. The ikan billis were yummy, achar nice and crunchy, not to forget the yummy coconut rice, which is just right a portion to my delight.... not forgetting the star.... Chicken Curry. A little too spicy for me, however savoury and the chicken is tender yet full of flavour. I was given the thigh and i love thighs.... they are not too hard yet gives a nice firmness...

    We also ordered the penang hokkien mee SPECIAL.. in which they gave bigger prawns and perhaps a little more of this and that. It was yummy, savoury and truly peranakan.

    One thing not to be missed when having penang food is the Chendol... The chendol came with a separate cup of coconut milk.. I like this arrangement as some people like me, do not enjoy coconut milk as much. However, this coconut milk is rich, creamy and smooth therefore its very pleasing to taste. Its pretty nice, but the ice at the bottom is all frozen. I guess they must have prepared and froze it. Well it serves quickly but the frozen bottom does not add much to taste.

    The only thing i am not too pleased is that they do not serve ice or warm water.... I do not enjoy restaurants that do not serve plain water.... Its not costly or troublesome, yet when not served water, it always leaves a bad impression.

    I'm not going back there again.. just because they do not serve water... :P

    The first time i came here is because i saw the S$2 cuppucino sign... I think the coffee was great... Nice aroma with a hint of acidity...

    I am not much a coffee drinker but i'm a cake eater... The cakes and other snacks are only okay, however the coffee portion is quite generous.... If you're out with a bunch of friends and wants a coffee break, you could hang out here and can laze on the couch and chit chat till the roof falls...

    Its not a huge outlet but there are plentiful seats.. The space is pretty comfortable and with many promotions going on, you will be sure your drink is one value for money.

    Its usually not crowded unlike other places and if you are like me who like to stay away from the crowd, you will like this place. Proper chairs and tables and a plenty. If you are looking for a proper business meeting or coffee with an associate, this is the place to be..

    337. TCC (Beach Centre)

    Leenie Pigs Leenie Pigs says:

    I can't help feeling relaxed and pampered sitting here writing this review in this fabulous coffee place, restaurant, cafe, whatever it is you call it. With the carefully selected jazz music playing in the background, one cannot but feel at ease in this simple setting of tables in a huge glass cabinate.

    From here i can see the buzzing beach road in front of me as well as the anxious vehicles trying to turn into seah street. The cool airconditioning contrasted with the hot sun toasting the black tar road outside.

    A simple and quiet set-up, tucked away from the bustle of the city life around. This place is indeed a gem for small talks, discussion and other sort of secret rendevouz... There are a good selections of business magazines, fashion magazines, golf, food and travel magazines for your leisure reading here and they are regularly updated. Besides the occasionally horns of irritated drivers shooing the car in front of them there is also a particularly periodical burping sound from this wierd looking 'the avengers' look-alike coffee dripper or watever it is. Such coffee drippers have an interesting set-up of icy-cold water dripping into a container of crushed coffee beans and into a container of pure and thick aromatic coffee solution....

    So much about the place. Lets talk about the food. They serve the standard menu similar to the rest of the outlets. I particular love the breakfast menu they serve here... The vegs are fresh and crunchy and french toast made moist yet crunchy at the sides. Finish off the breakfast with a nice cup of raspberry yoghurt drink.. Perfectly healthy...

    Feeling naughty? Perhaps indulge in a nice chunky piece of marble cheese cake. Rich and creamy cheese on chocolaty brownie base that will melt in your mouth. Some like to eat big chunks of it.. having to taste the cheese all over the inside of your mouth while i simply love to carve them in small bite and savour this delicacy slowly....

    I good hide-out... Good only when others don't bring along their kids to study here and make freaking lots of noise. Nor do we see students studying here while teasing each other. Lets keep this a good hide-out for us adults :)

    338. TCC (Bugis Junction)

    Leenie Pigs Leenie Pigs says:

    There are 2 TCCs in Bugis. One of which is the open concept one, which is right smack in the middle of what it used to be a common walkway. Cosy and good for big group gatherings. You can watch shoppers walk by and simply laze the afternoon away reading a book. Or perhaps hope by to rest your legs while waiting for your other half to finish shopping. They provide magazines for your to read and warm lightings.

    But the gem is really the other TCC at bugis, nearby to the open concept one, which is diagonally opposite the National Library. As you enter the vacinity, you are first greeted by the thick exotic aroma of the brewing coffee. Really heavenly... The design of the place is just sooo chic.... The gothic designs and contemporary comfy couches are just a wonderful hide out. What more, for those workholics who just can't live without their laptops, there are ample power points everywhere for you to charge your LAPPY....

    I love the comfy couches best... ample space for all S, M, L, Even XXL sizes like me yet it has a high fully covered arm rest. I feel very secure when i sit on these couches as i need not worry about my buldging stomach. Besides that it puts me in a very relaxing position.

    It is a good spot for meeting your clients or even to catch up with a business friend as they also have special round tables at corners, something like little balconies for privacy. With ample sockets everywhere, it is easy for you to do a good presentation or show your friends some photos. Wireless SG is available as well, you can show your friends your collections of videos on YOUTUBE.....

    The food menu is great. They offer baked items, sandwiches and other fusion dishes. Fabulous place to hang out......

    The Old Hoshi had lousy service but the new Hoshi with its New Renovation and New Look still have lousy service... However, the manager looks like a fine active, nice and enthusiastic Man.....

    Perhaps its the management system, perhaps its the culture.. Perhaps its even the people they choose to hire.... What i want is just a good refill of hot green tea in my cup and food to be served fast, fresh and tasty....

    I cannot deny the fact that Hoshi's Menu is a little pricey... and i always thought it was authentic japanese food... But things really changed when i heard the japanese looking sushi chef spoke in China Chinese.... I was a little amazed.... I didn;t know China Chinese Chef (CCC) can make such good authentic jap cuisines.. However, i hope to think that not all are CCC in the kitchen...

    The new Hoshi looks great... Ample space.... Nice Layout.... however the buffet is gone... The last time i went, there is only ala cart... meaning from the cart... *shui mei!! Har Kow!! Xiao Long Bao!!*

    The set menus are great.... The must have would be the Sashimi..... Fresh Succulent Juicy Raw Fish.. always taste good no matter how pissed you are from being ignored. Heh heh! The food I must say is pretty good for us Kampong Jurong Residents.... I mean there is not much to choose from....*So Don't Complain!!!*

    It is pricey for lunch.... And its always crowded on lunch times.. You could really see the waiteresses and waiters running around.... and beyond that confusion... the Sashimi still taste as good... Yum.......

    Pictures speaks a thousand words.. No Matter what i say... just look at the picture and imagine the BEST :)

    I was looking for some classic books such as Narnia, InkHeart, etc. I already went to many mega bookstores and to my amazement, I found what I was looking for nowhere but PageOne.

    A serious looking, huge bookstore with a green logo is all i could remember of Pageone. The interior decoration was nothing less then interesting. I love the center elevated portion best.. The elevated areas with book shelves crooked and slanted is like a replication of a study room in the pirates bunk on board a huge ship seeking a treasure. Beautiful, intrinsic details of the shelves and slanted floor makes it so much a fantasy to me.

    While browsing through the collection of books, I realised this one thing..... unlike some book stores... The titles are a plenty however, there are only one or two copies, which makes a huge variety of titles for you to choose from in one shelf. While in some bookstores... They have many books and have them in many repeated copies in which you will have a whole shelf full of similar titles. Not much a Selection.

    I was actually looking for some intrinsic designed novels such as ancient logo embossed hard cover with brown paper in gold tinted edges for my collection. I found the title i wanted and some other bonus catch as well....

    I find that for a book shop, the amount of selection is most important, however, what is important is the ambience and space. In PageOne, you can take your time to browse through the books and there are soothing jazz music playing in the background. If you find something you like and want to read a little of it before deciding to purchase, there are some sits hidden near the glass windows for you to browse through. Though Limited, these sits offers a great sea view which makes the entire "searching for a book" process much more enjoyable.

    If you like chinese books, be it novels or general references, there is a good selection of multiple titles at the back of the book store.

    This is a pretty serious book store.... Straight to the point, comprehensive and you might find some gems here... Reasonably priced and great services......

    A must go for BookWorms......
