Lotus Vegetarian Restaurant

If you haven't given a shot for restaurant style vegetarian food other than the normal vegetarian bee hoon you get in the market, it is time you break the rule and let the GREEN DIET takeover your meals.  Today, i'm recommending the vegetarian food from Lotus Vegetarian Restaurant, I've been there not just once, twice but 3 times. The very first time i went, it was when i was in secondary school, an avid vegetables lover then. As far as i could remember, i really liked the place was coz of the comfortable ambience coupled with healthy and nutritious food, there was also the station where you could order vegetables to be fried and sent to your table. I remember having lots of that!  Recently, i've been there a few times because i only realised it was a friend's good friend's parents' business. Wow, that's a long discription, but nevermind, the most important thing is that, the food here is really YUMMY! I have been here for various reasons, which s

Sushi Tei x ???times

Sushi Tei has never failed to live up to it's reputation for serving one of the best quality japanese food as well as it's ambience which makes customers want to return for more! Went to Vivocity's outlet for countless times but this round, the service was not as good as expected. Within a short span of an hour, 2 accidents happened with the cutleries. Quite an inefficient day for Sushi Tei.. Yet the food is still as good as ever, we ordered a few items on the Autumn special menu, namely the taru taru oyster roll and the shabu shabu salmon with collagen. And the rest are from the fixed menu where some of which we would order during most of our visits, such as the fried mixed vege, zuwai crabmeat fried rice with fish roe and unagi oyako don ( my favorite!) salmon shabu shabu with collagen which is the 2 white cubes on the plate. I didn't know it's the collagen but when we realised, we had little soup left so it made the soup really thick! But definitely tasty a

Typing in chinese is really not easy.. i shall switch back to english again! haha.  I managed to get a chance to be on TV FOOD SHOWS!!! It's indeed a dream come true for me. Really looking forward to seeing how i did! Too bad i will be away to Taiwan when it's showing two weeks later, but i can still watch it on Xinmsn! My face will be round and chubby, expected :P Of course if i compare myself to the artiste, i am rather lousy but i did my best! So that's what is most important right!=) Plaza Brasserie is located at Park Royal Hotel, Beach Road. It took me 1.5hrs to get there, by 2 buses and a taxi ride. I was slightly late by the time i got there, the rest of the tasters have arrived and are busy mingling away, i felt out of place. After filling up a form and being briefed about what was going to happen, we had some time to got to know one another and soon we had to be filmed taking some food. After that, it was 1.5hrs of free and easy ( TO EAT!). We all attacked the

看了永远吃不肥2,我真的有好多buffet places 想去尝试。由于我还没试过泰式buffet,就找了几个朋友和我一起去尝一尝。 节目里透漏说这里的服务有多好就有多好,可是我们真有点失望的。虽然是打了电话订位的,但是经理不够专业,只顾着要让更多客人可以吃到他们的食物,坚持我们在一个小时之内就能把食物用完,马上离开。他的态度真的令我差点都没味口吃下去了。但井然都跟朋友去到哪儿,就算了吧。我们只好到外头坐,还没点菜就好像被则问一样,问我们是不是有voucher 才有备而来的。让我更加生气了。他们这样kiasu的态度或许只会赶走客人吧。 我们点了好几样菜,虽然是比旁边桌的先点但比他们的迟来。等待的时间真有点久。。而且还忘了上几道菜肴。我们吃了几轮甜品和沙拉,正餐才上桌。饭菜也是我们提醒了好几次才登上来的。服务效录有点差劲,需要加油。 steamed tapioca never goes wrong, unless not fully cooked.. salads were good ( pomelo:left and mango: right), refreshing and crunchy! Thai Green Curry and Spring roll stir fried seafood with special sauce chicken skewers with thai chilli sauce, i found this rather normal and don't understand why it's a one serving only dish. eggplant with minced meat. this was a tad spicy and it's nice with white steamed rice! iced red ruby which we took from the buffet table. it's nice given that i'm eating it for the first time! 但以这个价钱(晚餐价格是20块左右)是满值得去吃的。我们点了几乎有99%of the m

Sweet Treats

It's not often that i get such nice treats, so i'm going to share with you. A lil' tart today Means a million to me It's the unexpected moments Which touches my heart But no matter what I still wanna say I'll always remember This sweet treat you shared with me Custard Tart From Balmoral Bakery @ Sunset Way I love anything with custard. But this is the first time i'm trying a custard tart, and it's omgosh, SWEETNESS TTM!!!<3 The aroma of freshly baked pastries is just irresistable. When he passed this to me, i'm like overload with happiness. Trying something i've been longing to try, u made my dream come true. Thanks! The crust is crumbly and baked to perfection, i believe even when u eat it cold, it's just as nice. Check out the thickness of the custard filling in the first photo. OH! And you do know there's a range of custard desserts, such as custard baos, which i think it's an awesome dimsum! I'm gonna than

So who says school's food is boring? Bruce Lee Hong Kong Cafe newly opened just 1 week ago has attracted both students and outsiders to patron with eagerness to try out new dishes. The long list of menu does not fail to give diners enough choices to experiment each time they are there. Personally, i've gone there twice. The price is reasonable, ranging from $5-$10 for main course, $2-$5 for their dim sums and snacks while the wide variety of drinks are about $2-$5 depending on what you order. On my first trip, i ordered the curry chicken cutlet hot stone rice. The portion was just nice and it came with a stalk of Caixin, onions, green capsican and half a hard boiled egg, which made it look really yummy! The rice was nicely cooked but the downside was that the curry gravy could have been stronger and the chicken was a tad dry. If these are improved, i'll strongly recommend the hot stone series because you can choose from a wide range of toppings. I had the sour plum juic
