Food! Food! Food! in Singapore – 1

i think my blog is becoming food blog… XD

wanted to blog about something else… but i still can’t help to talk about food. friends who met me up these few days should realized that i keep talking about what i ate in singapore haha. paiseh paiseh.

went back to Singapore in May during Golden Week of Japan.

super rare for me to go back during such period, as I always go back in December only (except for once I went back July for my sis’s wedding)

i guess most friends should know why lah

i always told myself must control my appetite when i go back singapore because i often get stomach pain returning japan due to over-eating in singapore, but i failed super badly this time… got a super bad tummy ache on the first night haha… anyway i forced myself to sleep that night, and next morning, ls-ed, and eat here and there again! wahaha…

first day at singapore was super fulfilling!!! … or rather super filling XD

met up with mag mag who drove me to old airport road for good food! thanks thanks!!!

love hawker food!!!

i think you will discover the love, only after u’ve been away from spore for a long time haha

in the past, when i was in singapore, hawker food is like “taken for granted” by me. anyway super sad that some hawkers have to give up their business because of old age, despite having many fans. sigh sigh.

we had lao fu zi char kuey tiao!!! which mag queued for like 15 mins.

its super yummy loh! can give them full stars liao!!! don’t need to say more about it… haha

and then we queued for about 10 mins for a popiah stall. mag wanted kueh pie tee. it’s like more than 8 years since i eat kueh pie tee. and i think this is my second time eating it haha… too bad it does not impress us.

but the popiah is very nice!!! very juicy with solid peanut taste inside!!! as in the peanuts are not too overwhelmed by the main veggie mixture such that you cannot taste the peanut. yum yum!!! you should be able to see the peanut dices in the photo!!!

and then kuey chap!!! omg, super long time never eat!!! and it is yummy! just that the kuey tiao a bit too little lah haha… but the meat hor, dont have those very 膩 taste, doesn’t taste “fatty”. and then the intestines also very yummy, got enough 咬勁! no wonder so many people are queuing for it!!! understand liao. by the way, as shown on the photo, the shop is 135! haha

then we dabao rojak, cheng teng, lao ban dou hua (for our friend. to me, its lao ban pudding XD), goreng pisang, and soursop drink (mine) and had it with another friend. rojak was not bad! it is my second time eating rojak from this stall. u need to get number and wait one. but i still prefer clementi brothers one haha. goreng pisang was so-so. as for soursop drink, i regretted not ordering the blended one instead. cheng teng was too sweet… hah

so in a noon, i ate that much XD

and then i met up with jessica! … very full at the moment. but cannot resist the pretty cakes.

anyway the shop is [The Bakery Chef] at bt merah. i have read about this cafe online, that they serve one of the best carrot cakes in singapore!!! 沒想到 jessica also interested in going since she was the one who suggested it. lucky lucky!

the carrot cake super big loh!!!!!!!! 2 of us cannot finish it! somemore we had another cake!!! but the cake was very moist and dense!!! with generous crunchy nuts inside… cream cheese frosting does not taste too cheesy. its good and solid stuff loh! but i have to say, i got a bit 膩 of it soon. oops guess it was too heavy! i saw a table with 2 people just eating the carrot cake, and they have to dabao in the end (@@)

and of course must order pretty rainbow cake!!! my first time having rainbow cake!!! it was very soft!!! the taste is light too! not too sweet, but i cannot make out what taste is it… hmmm maybe that is the taste of rainbow hahaha…

it took us a while to 忍心 to cut the rainbow cake XD and the top cream swirl is done so prettily!!! i always think people who can decorate cakes are very lihai! cos i think i very bad at decorating cakes… or rather i seldom decorate my cakes, cos waste money wahahaha XD oops and one more excuse! cos i always bring my baked cakes out for friends, so if i decorate them, will have to hunt for boxes to make sure the cakes are nicely brought out (@@)

had hazelnut latte. loves hazelnut! but actually i dont drink coffee, cos it can give me headaches sometimes haha… luckily no headache that time (only tummyache wahahahaha) yummy! hazelnut taste was strong enough to satisfy me

after that we headed to gardens by the bay! my second time here, and first time here for night!

ever since MBS was completed, my every trip to Singapore confirmed will have photos of MBS haha… avid fan sia.

it was super uber hot loh!!! this trip was super hot!!! scary. so we went to tulipmania to enjoy air-con. the tulipmania hmm… it was so-so (to put it badly, cui to 70% level wahaha) but still must take some photos to make my entrance ticket worth it lah haha i don’t like the cross-pattern on the flower dome lah. want to take scenery photos outside, and the cross-pattern rooftop spoiling it… aiyah, or maybe my photography skills not up to the standard to defeat that rooftop. got super nice sunset loh, but cannot take it nicely from inside sadded. cannot make the cross-pattern incorporated artistic-ly in the photos

came across this interesting sign. hey! i didn’t know singapore has wild otters leh!!!

mbs trees are very pretty at night!!!!! should have borrow my papa’s wide-lens convertor (or attachment?) to take wider photos!!!

and then soon! it was dinner time!!!

had “rendang nasi lemak” hmm… a bit ex lah, cos in MBS i guess. but the achar was yummy!!! the chicken was yummy too!!! actually hor, i like achar along with hainanese chicken rice! in jurong east, there is a hawker stall which serves chicken rice with achar, very yummy!!! its like my childhood food haha my papa often dabao that for us in the past

had lychee mint soda… too much fake mint flavour (@@) generous serving of lychees though!

noon we had american carrot cake, dinner we had chinese carrot cake! hahaha… it was a bit normal for me. there were big pieces of egg! but i prefer egg to be more “incorporated” into the radish cake. and i prefer my radish cake to be in smaller pieces haha

oh no, i sacrificed my tummy to write out this post!!! hungry liao lah.
