The reason why this blog is created is because Multiply.com is shutting down & all posts will be removed. Some posts here are back-dated from Aug 2004 - Aug 2012! I'm just doing a screen-shot & re-posting slowly cos it ain't easy to import every single photo. Therefore, only thumbnails are available for viewing, which also explains the white background & the little note at the end.

Nyonya & Baba Peranakan

Went for a morning walk with Ivy at Labrador Park, which again, I'll blog about it separately. Since our walk ended at Vivo, we asked Whye Wan to join us for lunch. While he makes his way to Vivo, we decided to pick Nyona & Baba for lunch







Prawn cracker & Achar (preserved vegetables) were served once we're being seated. Sambal belacan is also being served, so we dip the crackers into it. Sambal belacan is smelly & spicy is nice, but definitely not the best I've had. 

Lime juice is refreshing


Bakwang Kepeting to start the lunch. Meatball made with minced pork & seafood simmered in broth with bamboo shoot is sweet & light 


Nyonya Ngo Hiang is a must-try. Minced meat & prawn with chestnut wrapped in crispy beancurd skin. It's specially nicer when dip in sweet sauce


Sambal Sotong is a little sweet and the squid is nicely done; not chewy


Ayam Buah Keluah (No picture cos the only pix I had was blur) - Juicy chicken with black nut sauce. Chicken is very tender & the sauce is sweet & spicy


Nyonya Chap Chye is simmered tol very soft. Nice


Otak-Otak on the other hand taste very normal


Kueh Pisang - the banana in it is sightly raw, so I ordered a Chendol. Just the right amount of gula meleka so it's not too sweet

Service here is quite prompt & friendly also. I'll be be back if I'm craving for Nyona Food

Heng Heng Curry Cafe

Met up with few of the Voodoos members for dinner at Causeway Point before heading to Night Safari, which I will blog about it separately. I was first to reach but couldn't decide what to eat, so Angela suggested Heng Heng Curry Cafe since none of us have tried before & there's no queue





Lime Juice with Sour Plum. Sour yet refreshing


Asam Laksa Seafood - Gravy is thick, a slightly & not spicy. Cucumber, Onion & Pineapple is crunchy & adds a little "ump" to the laksa


Curry Vegetables - Curry is thick & not spicy. Unfortunately, I don't eat most of the vegetables (Lady's Finger, Brinjal, Tao Pok) in there. So I'll probably skip this next time


Ngoh Hiang (Meal Roll) is nice. Minced Pork, prawns & are marinated nicely & chestnuts adds on the crunchiness. Dip in the homemade chilli & dark soy sauce makes it nicer


Chicken Wing is soft & tender, yet crispy on the skin


Preserved Vegetable & Pork Belly w/pumpkin rice. Pork belly is braised till soft & tender but the preserved vegetable is slightly bland


Braised Pork Set w/braised egg & soup. Braised Pork is also soft & tender, braise is a little sweet. 

Food here is pretty nice & serving portion of the side dishes are just nice for 4 person. I'll probably be back again to try the Curry Fish Head

SSIKKEK Korean BBQ

A-Team's Sunday Night dinner. This time we ended up at Cafe 566, which is located at Mandai Estate. Kogu saw a pamphlet on his car about this place, so we went to check it out. 



It turns out to be a Tze-Char place which also offers Steamboat, and has lots of animal statues at the main door. There's even a Dragon at the fence! The place was pretty crowded & the staffs were so busy to even entertain us, we decided to find somewhere else.

We ended up at SSIKKEK Korean BBQ located at Junction10

This new restaurant here at Junction10 is pretty crowded

Not much food choices available, but it's decent for the price of $24++ 

Meat eaters, rejoice! There's quite a lot of meats (beef, chicken & pork) available!

Few types of Beef

Few types of Chicken & Pork

Seafood lovers, there's only Squid & Prawns available

Apart from Meat & Seafood, some cooked food, side dishes, vegetables & fruits are available too. Drinks are free flow!

Rice Cake - taste pretty good, & it's quite chewy

Kimchi - Not very spicy

Fruits Salad

Noodles

After picking up all the stuffs we want, we're ready to feast

Tada~~~~ Feasting in progress! 

Food taste is ok, but ... ... be warned! 

You'll smell like a "Walking BBQ PIT" after the meal So be sure not to go for your first date or watch movie after this! =D=D=D
