07 Oct 2009 Sushi Tei

This is another restaurant i love to patronise. The food served are always nice to savour! The crab fried rice which i bought is really tasty and the crab meat is fresh and succulent! Yum! The green tea cold soba’s texture is nice and smooth. Dip it into the sauce and slurp it down ur throat! Careful not to choke! The tempura, unagi and chicken were really good too! Haven been to Sushi Tei?? Head down now!

This time round we headed to the one at Paragon, Orchard Road, Singapore.

Itadakimasu!

07 Oct 2009 Long Beach Dinner Set

I’ve been always praising Long Beach’s food, we decided to order a dinner set this time round to celebrate my granny’s bday! However, not all the dishes were great. I guess, it better to choose individually the dishes you want to eat! The seafish, prawns and steam fish were really good. The crab they served was salted egg style, but its no where as good as the crab specialist’s one at Choa chu kang, SIngapore. The noodles were not up to standard too. But overall, we still enjoyed the meal! Its LONG BEACH after all! haha.

Yum Seng!

18 Sep 2009 Tung Lok Seafood Arena

Tung Lok has a chain of restaurant all around. Tung Lok Seafood Arena is the one at Jurong. It was my first time there and so happened they had a wedding dinner there! They asked if we do not mind giving the couple a red packet (chinese tradition to give a red packet with money inside) and join them for the wedding dinner! haha. Nono, thats not it. They asked if we are fine with dining in a small room by the side of the restaurant. We, being easy-going peeps, said yes!

We ordered stir-fried kang kong, deer meat, claypot seabass and a plate of steam prawns. We wanted to order crabs, but that day they were all sold out! But, its alright the fish and especially the prawns made up for it. The prawns were super tasty and fresh and nice with the complementing steam egg and sauce. Perfect! I highly recommend the prawns.

Oh the Luo Han Guo Tea is free flow! If you intend to hold your wedding there, do invite me!!! =D

16 Sep 2009 Last bit … abt europe.

I know, my posts have been irregular and erractic. My apologies! Alright, let me end my features on European food today and tmr, i will be blogging about some good food from Singapore again!

Some of the hotels serves pretty good food. For example on my first morning in Switzerland, they served carvier for breakfast!! wow. i want cavier for breakfast everyday! That was Renaissance Hotel in Zurich. Assortments of pastries, Fish and chips in London, ice cream, chocolates. All the flashbacks and memories are making me hungry! Enjoy the photos!

What the heck is a picture of a toilet doing together with the food?! You must be thinking this. I can’t help it but share this with you. Its the first time i saw a toilet like this. Thats like such a random toilet, appearing out of no where! By the way, thats in London.

Oh man, there’s so much more unique food which i have yet to explore in Europe. Like so so so much more! I must go back there and explore other areas to bring you the best! Thats my mission! Can someone sponsor my mission pls? haha.

Hear from me soon!

11 Sep 2009 LaConcorde Le Plat

I love French cuisine! Simply terrific! I know, i seem to love everything! I count my blessings to be able to enjoy the good food all around! When we were at Paris, we stopped by this restaurant. They served some bread and escargot(snails) for appetizer. The main course was rooster meat and potatoes. Ended the meal with an assortment of cheese and a sweet caramel cake. I really enjoy eating escargots! Here, they cooked them really well and the sauce that they use is really tasty! I did not waste a single drop of it. I used the bread to wipe the sauce dry! haha.

Rooster meat is not too bad. The marinate they use is good. The last picture is foie gras (pronounced /fwɑːˈɡrɑː/ in English) (Fah Gwah). Its not from the restaurant. We got it from the a supermarket. They had a wide selection and we wanted to eat on the spot so we ordered this chunk of fat goose liver! I love the taste and texture of it! Its really unique! However, trying it once is okay, but we should keep eating them due to the cruelty behind making foie gras. They actually force feed the goose to make their liver fat! Oh my, can you imagine me force feeding you till ur liver becomes fat and delicious?? Alright enough said, enjoy the fotos!

Bon appetit!

09 Sep 2009 Charcuterie cuisine
 |  Category: Paris, Pastries  | Tags: , , , ,  | One Comment

We were walking around in Paris and when i passed this shop, i just had to enter it. I know, i am a greedy boy, i simply can’t resist nice looking food. The pastas and pastries just pulled me in like a fly attracted to blue light! “I can’t help itttttt!”

They are not only nice looking, they taste great too! I bought this mushroom and potato pastry. Perfect!!! Very nice soft crispy pastry with creamy potato mushroom fillings. ANd just look at those pastas and pastries and meat and sauages and everything! I wish i own that shop!! Check this shop out if you are in Paris.

Just for your information, Charcuterie (pronounced /ʃɑrˌkuːtəˈriː, ʃɑrˈkuːtəri/; French: [ʃaʁkyˈtʁi], from chair ‘flesh’ and cuit ‘cooked’) is the branch of cooking devoted to prepared meat products such as bacon, ham, sausage, terrines, galantines, pâtés, and confit, primarily from pork. Got this from wiki =D.

22 Aug 2009 Restaurant Pizzeria

One word, heavenly! We were actually a little skeptical standing outside the restaurant, but there are no regrets having dinner over there. The pizza is thin crust, cripsy and really tasty. The spaghetti and riso were well cooked and super duper tasty. The taste of the cream or sauce arousing the buds of your tongue. Cloud nine shld be the word.

Oh oh! I am so into the food i forget to tell u where it is! Still in Interlaken, its one of the restaurant along the road. We sat outside in the cool temperature having our delicious dinner. Mountains all around you and from the vast blue sky, you see ppl gliding down. Mamamia! haha.

Oh!! yess and i got something to bitch about! Look at the last photo, the one with the receipt. I cant believe they actually charged us 2 francs just to cut the pizza into 2! What!!! Next time i am doing it myself! haa!

I am so hungry already =(

18 Aug 2009 Jungfraujoch - Top of Europe!
 |  Category: Switzerland, Western  | Tags: , , ,  | Leave a Comment

I LOVEEEEE the mountains! SO so so so beautiful! The glimmering white shining on everyone faces! Pure and innocent! haha. The chilling cold, some people may fear, but i welcome it as i do not know when i will get to lie on it again! Singapore is such a warm country, southeast asians will know the terror of the heat all year round.

The food that was served was actually nothing great, but since i love jungfrau so much i shall blog about it! And hope to share with you some nice sceneries! Before we go to the pictures, i do wanna say the ice cream was fantastic! creamy and nice and look at the design of it! swiss made! haha.

Don’t you just love the view from the mountains? I sure do!

Cheers,
