See My Cherry


This is my super cute kid showing off his cherry to the girl next to our table when we took the kids out to Kopitiam Junction this noon. He asked for cake and dragged me off to the cake shop. If i dont buy him one, he’ll tear the place down. I soon found out why as there’s a small cake with a car on top of it at the cake shop, knn. I reminded him i just bought him two new car-cars yesterday. Still reluctant to leave, he chose a blueberry chocolate cake with a cherry on top of a dollop of fresh cream. I bluffed him and said that’s ice-cream, lol! He should be happy as he got to eat cake with cherry and ice-cream all at once. Sigh…. the cost of bringing up kids is really high. *makes mental note to self to remember to load my printer with new ink and print more money*

A Dose Of CKT


One of the stalls at Tong Sui Kai serves really good Char Kuey Tiau. I dare not order as it’s insane to eat heaty food like this in hot weather. It rained a bit the past few days, turning the weather slightly bearable. It’s not even cool, okay. Since there’s no sun last Friday, i took the plunge and ordered a plate of CKT and ate it together with my "camping buddy". It’s SO good, damnit. Get sorethroat also no regrets, lol. Want some? Nah… say ahhhhhhh……..

Chor 8 – Pai Tin Kung


Chor 8 is the most important day of Chinese New Year for Hokkiens. It’s a lavish do. I’m not Hokkien, but was invited to a friend’s for the event. She’s prepared a lot of food as offerings to the Gods, complete with a big roasted pig. She gave me a few large pieces to take home. It’s going to last my family for at least a week, lol.

Fried Spring Rolls


The lady at the foodcourt recommended we try their new Fried Spring Rolls when we ordered something to go with our beer. It’s really nice with seaweed, kani sticks, salted duck eggs in it. Complements our beer so much and not filling at all. Hope they still make this dish after Chinese New Year. Will order this again on my next trip to the foodcourt. My kids will love it.

Pork Strips And Dried Oysters Porridge


It’s Sunday! Also the last day of the long school holidays. I’m doing some last minute preparation and dont feel like leaving the house nor cook. So, simple food like this Pork Strips with Dried Oysters Porridge is the order of the day. It’ll last us till late evening. Will then think of what to eat for dinner after that.
