Let's start this entry with a taste of Singapore.
The original Hainanese Chicken Rice - this might look norm but it's really good, especially the aroma of the rice with the smooth chicken meat ... so much better than the typical chicken rice!
Hokkien Prawn Noodle - a personal favorite when I first tasted it :P
Popiah - i like the Malaysian version better
Singapore Char Kway Teow - i never tasted a sweet version of char kway teow until now and it tastes funny and I can't finish the noodles
Singapore Laksa - full of coconut milk flavor but lack the ummphh of chili paste
Fried Carrot Cake - quite plain to my taste
I heard the Singaporeans love japs food and we tried some of the ramen at this shop near Orchard Road. Not many seats and choice of food but they said the soup is boiled for 8-hours without any MSG.
My Singaporean friend also invited me for lunch at Sushi Tei at Ngee Ann City. Love the food there and it's reasonable too if you are earning Singapore dollar! (thanks Chris for lunch)
We had our Christmas dinner at Brewerkz, facing the Clarke Quay waterfront, highly recommended by my cousin.
Crab Pasta - not sure what is the greeny thick sauce but this is too filling if consume alone
BBQ Pork Ribs - this is good stuff but need to be shared
Sausages with mash potato - not very interesting, taste wise
Have a Cuppa
When my cousin told us that she's bringing us to have nice coffee when we are down in Singapore, I welcomed the idea with excitement.
I feel in love with tcc (the coffee connoisseur) when I took that sip of Choco Rummin'. They have variety of coffee selection and food. Too bad I didn't get the chance to visit their outlet for a second time >.< (Gerald, next time ya)
tcc outlet in Plaza Singapura
Iced Kaffello Latte - iced coffee with coffee jelly
Azuki Coffee Cooler - coffee with a layer of special red beans
Choco Rummin' - bliss of chocolate cookie laced with golden rum and espresso
The Deep Blue Pack - a selection of seafood served with a tangy mayo dip, this is perfect for sharing
Spice Chic - pieces of fried chicken fillet, nothing spicy about the meat ... not recommended
Another interesting coffee joint in Singapore is the Coffee Club. Before our departure, we tried out their coffee and dessert at Vivocity.
Macademia Nut Toffee - interesting combination but I can't feel the macademia taste
Iced rambutan - nothing special about this drink, taste more like lychee smoothies
Muddy Mud Pie - this is actually cappuccino and chocolate ice cream covered with oreos
A special thanks to harryberry who provided me a whole list of what and where to eat in Singapore!
Shop, Shop, Shop
The shopping spree was tiring but I think we boosted up the Singapore economy with the rest of the shoppers in that few days of visit. In total, we bought 7 pairs of Charles & Keith on sale heels which you can't find in the Pavilion KL outlet. A number of shirts from G2000 at S$29.00 per piece and some other stuff.
This is all I bought - 1 pair of sunnies, bag, shoe and a crystal tee all under S$150. Nice? Please say yes ^^
With this final entry on my Singapore experience, I conclude in 4 words: I. WILL. BE. BACK!
