Food and Company

After a half day work in the office, I met up with Lx for gossip/eating session. 1st stop was to Tanjong Pagar to buy Chocz & Spize muffins. She has wanted to buy it for the longest time so we'll fulfill her craving 1st. haha. She bought a total of 6 muffins for her family while I bought 3 for Mummy. After which, we mazed our way through to Maxell Market to fulfill my craving - Tian Tian Chicken Rice.


Sis and I have read many raves about this chicken rice and have been talking to try this out someday. Haha but I went without her first and even sent her an MMS of the above pic :p

So, after queuing for about 10 mins, I was ready to try out the “requested no breast meat” chicken rice. The rice was grainy and the chicken was smooth. (as this is not really a food blog, I wont be going into details how nice it is). Lx queued 15 mins for the famous fish slice porridge and she bought plate of raw fish slices to share. For a price of $2 only, it was pretty delicious.

. queue . chicken rice . sliced fish porridge .
. raw sliced fish . mango + prawn salad . chicken + sambal steak combo .
. steak + prawns combo . seafood spaghetti . american cheesecake

Dinner was at Jacks Place with Hr popping down to meet us. The only thing that I liked there was the American cheesecake. Won’t wanna go into the uncooked chicken and tasteless steak I had.

Nevertheless, the company was good - I rant/raved about the latest “happening” in my life, bad attempt to shoot “paparazzi” shots and a very hard time convince Lx to get a pic of her taken (which we failed).

Ouch! It's Time...

It hurts,
But I still got to smile.

It hurts,
And I'm no longer going to dream.

Period.

1st time into the Esplanade Theatre

Late post again ...

On the 27th Sept, Lx and I went to watch musical - The Forbidden City, Portrait of an Empress. We met up at City Hall and had Din Tai Fung @ the Market Place

. crunchy mini cucumber in spicy sauce . xiao cai . xiao long paus .
fried rice . pork chop . soup noodles .

It's surprising that the xiao long paus and xia cai does not taste as good as those at Bishan. The noodles were ok..but definitely not my choice whenever I visit Din Tai Fung. The pork chop was pretty good. As usual, the fried rice was "thumbs up". keke Oh, and we also tried the new item on the menu - crunchy mini cucumber in spicy sauce. Too bad, not all branches have that on the menu, because the sour-ish and spicy taste is really appetizing.

Mental block so here's it in point form again for the musical:
- nice songs
- amazing voices
- touching show
- setting was fine
- wanted to get the OST, but decided to save $

Perhaps it's time...

When reality beings to set in, I should no longer dream.
