Back for savory soy bean soup at 上海真美豆漿大王

Went here for more savoury soybean soup which is filled with goodies such as dough stick slices, dried shrimps and spring onions.
A filling and nutritious soup.

Had dumplings as well but the skin was a bit thick.

Baby hairy crabs at Shanghai Lo

For those who can’t wait for the Hairy Crab season, you can start eating baby hairy crabs here but they are smaller in size.
They taste the same in my opinion and the shell is softer and easier to manage.

Here was what we had, which was pre-arranged.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆


★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Starter platter:
Huadiao wine marinated green edamame beans, Huadiao wine marinated chicken, tea leaf smoked egg.

Started off with this lovely platter which I liked because I love anything that is soaked in Huadiao wine.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Toasted French baguette slice with baby hairy crab roe:

The crab roe was like delicious thick gravy with bits of crab and crab roe mixed it.
Great with the baguette slice because I find the Chinese steamed buns too sweet.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Shanghai Lo stir fried prawn with garlic and chili:

This was a huge prawn covered in crispy garlic and chili that was nice and spicy.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Fried rice cake with baby hairy crab:

When this was served, you could smell the lovely aroma of bean paste, each glutinous rice cake was thickly covered in this deliciously sweet and savoury sauce paired with crab roe rich crabs.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Traditional style Tiger grouper steamed with wine ferment:

I was looking forward to this and it didn't disappoint because the wine ferment tasted a bit like red beancurd.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Edamame beans and beancurd knot:

This was a light dish to end the meal and the beancurd knot was scrumptious because it had absorbed the lovely gravy.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Sweetened papaya with snow fungas and almond beancurd:

The highlight of this dessert was the almond beancurd which was silky with a strong almond taste.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Egg white souffle ball filled with custard:


Red beans haters rejoice because this traditional dessert is filled with creamy molten savory egg yolk custard that tastes better!

Thai desserts from Bangkok Thai Restaurant

Had a big dinner here and couldn't finish the desserts so took them home.
They were still ok the next morning.



Both had a fragrant coconut taste and smell but I liked the coconut sago because it was creamy with delicious sago pearls.

Green tea icelolly from A-1 Bakery

After trying the rum and raisin icelolly decided to try green tea even though I didn’t like the sesame icecream and red beans.



This flavour tasted slightly better than the rum raisin because the green tea chocolate coating was not too sweet and tastes better than the white chocolate coating.

Back for lobsters again at Bisque | Lobster & Champagne

After my first visit, I was hooked on the lobster.
This time we had different items to try.

Started off with freshly shucked oysters followed by Classic a la Rockefeller baked oysters.

I liked the baked oysters because they were really tasty with strong parsley and herbs.

Then we had this huge bowl of lobster bisque which we shared.

It was rich was a strong lobster taste and it had a lobster claw in it.

After the soup, we had the mini lobster sliders.

These were surprisingly good because the lobster meat was springy and sweet paired with this sauce that was spicy and delicious.

For the mains we had new brunswick lobsters a la wenberg, lobster pieces in creamy brandy sauce on top of butter toasted brioche.
The butter toasted brioches was a bit too rich for my liking.

We also shared the grilled lobster with fresh herbs and garlic butter.


I definitely recommend the lobster sliders and the typhoon shelter lobster!

Sunday brunches at The Great Indian Kebab Factory

Previously went here for Saturday lunch buffet and won a $200 cash voucher so decided to use it on the Sunday brunch which costs $148 per person so I went with a friend.
On Sundays, there are more curries and rice and the range is more authentic but they didn’t have my favorite curd rice and rice pudding.
Anyway, the food was still good especially the plain naan, which was great with, curries and dressings they had.
My favourites were the vegetarian curries, which were flavourful but not spicy.
On Sunday you get free refills for drinks but I didn't know that.

Mix and match noodles

Found out about Noodies a few weeks ago because I saw pictures of these pretty purple bowls.
I didn’t know it was owned by a friend until a recent post by Elena Kong (江美儀) which made me visit the place asap!

At Noodies, there are three choices of broth: Laksa, Tom Yum Kung and Pork broth.
The BEST and unique thing here is that you can choose two different types of noodles for an extra $3 more like the way they eat noodles in Singapore but in Singapore they only pair rice vermicelli and egg noodles.
I chose the Laksa broth with a mix of Korean noodles and Shanghai noodles.

It is good that they put the different noodles on different sides.

The Shanghai noodles were thicker in diameter than expected because I thought they were the thin ones and the Korean noodles, which were Korean instant noodles, were yummy because the big curls hang more soup to it.


It was great that I could choose Korean noodles because I am allergic to Korean spices and here they use whatever broth you choose.
I regretted not just getting Korean noodles because they were really nice but then I like this flexibility because you can experiment two different noodles in one go and see which tastes better.
The Laksa broth was quite spicy in my opinion but it was nice.
On another visit, I tried the Tom Yum Kung broth with Shanghai noodles and the broth was quite strong with pungent lemongrass flavouring but the lime was not prominent enough.

Hope to see Buk Kut Teh and Prawn broth soon!
