Family lunch on Sunday

Hi guys, I'm back to share a place that my parents and I frequent when we want to have some cheap and good tze char. I've actually shared this place before, but that was a few months back. Since my parents and I visited this place again last Sunday, I thought I might as well share it with my readers again. So this coffeeshop is located at Ang Mo Kio (I will share the address in a moment). Other than Hong Kong style Tze Char, there is another stall that sells pretty good dimsum in the same coffeeshop. So you can have a mixture of items that you would like to have at one location. 

So here are the dishes that we ordered:

First up, we have none other than liushabao! ($3.50)

My dad is an avid fan of liushabaos after I brought him to Swee Choon. He loves the salted egg and custard fillings, and can finish all 3 by himself. Hahah. By the way, this liushabao wasn't exactly that up to our expectations. The bao was too thick in our opinion.

Moving on to our mains

Prawn Paste Chicken ($9.00)

 Boy, this prawn paste chicken was awesome! Just look at how fat and juicy these drumlets are. Every bite into this chicken drumlet gives you the satisfaction, and it's definitely worth all your calories. I loved that their rendition of prawn paste chicken had a thicker outer layer of flour and it's so so crispy. Not forgetting that the chicken drumlets were very well marinated too. Definitely worth a try!

Sum Loh horfun ($6.00)

 This dish is basically horfun with sliced fish and loads of beansprouts. The sliced fish was really fresh and this is a must order for all fish and horfun lovers. Awesome horfun!

Mee Goreng ($4.50)

My mum and I love their Mee goreng. It's not too salty nor too sweet. The seafood that they use are also really fresh and nice. This is one of the better chinese style mee goreng that I've had.

Yup, so that's what we had for our Sunday lunch. The total damage for this meal was just $23.00. Really affordable right?

So here's the address:
Hong Kong Chun Kee Street Resturant
Blk 151, Ang Mo Kio Ave 5 
#01-3030,  (S) 560157
Opening Hours: 11am - 2pm, 5pm - 11pm.

 Do give this place a try if you happen to be in the Ang Mo Kio area! 

Love,

Mid Autumn Gathering

Hi guys, it's been quite awhile since I last blogged. I've been really  busy with my assignments and tests. So glad that it's all over now. I've to prepare for my final exams that commences on 22nd Oct, and that marks the end of my first sem in RMIT. Time really flies. Okay so this post will be on the Mid Autumn Festival gathering with my family over at my place. My mum lovingly prepared all the homemade dishes and they were all so yummy! Some pictures that I snapped. Please pardon me for the lousy quality, they were all snapped from my iPhone.

Spammed some pictures with 2 of my favourite cousins. I still remember how we used to hang out so often when we were much younger. Now that we're all grown up, I'm still glad that the bond is still there. :)

Alright, after a round of picture spamming, it was time for food!

 Our table of homemade delights

Stir fried brocolli with prawns and scallops

Braised chicken with potatoes, carrots and lotus root

Ngoh Hiang

Fish maw soup

Steamed fish

Roast Pork

The most satisfying lunch ever. I've always loved homecooked meals, and I'm really glad that my mum's cooking skills are improving day by day. Heh! So say yay to more delicious homecooked meals!

After lunch, we cleared up the tables and had mooncake that my aunt bought over. 

Super nice packaging for the mooncakes

Double Yolk Lotus paste mooncake

We continued chatting and I had a really nice time with my family. More of such gathering soon I hope! 

Alright, that shall be all for this post. I'll be back with more after I come back from JB with my UOL friends tmr! So excited! 

Love,

Auntie Kim's Korean Restaurant

Hi guys! It has been almost a week since I last wrote a post. Have been really busy juggling both work and giving tuition at night. But it's a temporary job before my school commences in August, so I shall just bear with the 2 more weeks! Alright, so just last Friday, my colleagues and I went to Auntie Kim's Korean Restaurant for lunch. I love the food there, especially the kimchi fried rice. We ordered a couple of dishes and they were all really good. The prices are a little steep though, but it's definitely worth it for the quality of food. All the sides were delicious too. We especially love the sweet potato and of course, the kimchi! Here are some of the dishes that we ordered!

Some chilled drink that they serve. Tasted a little like rice tea to me though, but it's not sweet.

Side dishes that are refillable

Seafood pancake.

 This dish was really yummy! The side of the pancake was crispy and the middle of the pancake was fluffy and filled with ingredients. I really loved this dish! This is definitely a must try for all korean pancake lovers!

Saba fish. 

I didn't get to try this, but according to my colleagues, this fish is really fresh and doesn't have that fishy smell. 

Ginseng Chicken Soup

I thought that this dish was a tad too bland. All my other colleagues felt so too, and we had to add some soy sauce to make it saltier. I must say that this is a pretty healthy dish, with less salt and oil. It would be nice to have this ginseng soup on a cold and rainy day.

Korean Jajangmyeon (Black Sauce Noodles)

My colleagues and I loved this noodles. The sauce may look really black, but it is not very salty, and when you mix it with the springy noodles, it is simply perfect! Oh and I must say that the noodles are really very springy and bouncy. Haha. Very very nice dish. Everyone should totally try this. But there's one thing to note, if you really dislike onions, please do not order this dish. It is overloaded with onions!

Kimchi fried rice with pork

This fried rice must be my favourite out of all. I absolutely adore fried rice, and this is definitely one of the better ones. Just look the the sunny side up, the yolk is so runny and thick. When we mix it up with the rice, everything is just super good. I'm so gonna go back and have this again. Oh and we requested for extra spicy, so they sprinkled chilli padi all over the rice. Honestly speaking, the chilli padi was really a bit too much. So unless you are really someone who can't live without spicy stuff, please just order the normal kimchi fried rice. 

All in all, I really have to say that this is official one of my favourite Korean Restaurants from now on. I will definitely be back for more of these awesome stuff. Most of their staff in this restaurant is from Korea I guess, and they will greet you with smiles and of course in Korean language. Haha, makes me feel like I'm really in Korea. 

Alright, just before I end, I have my outfit of the day photo to share. Heheheh, haven't been taking that many OOTD pictures during work, so this is one of the rare times that I have time to take my outfit of the day! 

Loving my polka dots skirt, and I think I look really happy in these photos. Hahaha.

Sushi Lovers

Happy Saturday guys! This post will all be about sushi! Hehe! Well, at least most of it. :) RC, Casan and I went to Sakae sushi for lunch today. So glad that I have a fixed sushi group. Everytime we wanna meet up, we will just go for sushi. How awesome. So we arranged to meet up today for lunch at Citylink, because it's the only Sakae outlet that provides lunch buffet on a weekend. The service was alright, and the sashimi was fresh! YUMS! I totally adore Jap food! We walked around after lunch and tried on countless pairs of heels at New Look. They were all so pretty, but we didn't get any in the end, because the heels were all too high, and a bit impractical. Casan left after walking around, and RC and I went to Kbox to sing our lungs out! 2 people going to Kbox is really kind of tiring. We just continued singing song after song, no time to rest at all. Haha, but it's still fun, shouting and singing! Such that I have a sore throat now. Hah. 

 Oh this reminds me that I have a good deal to share! If you're a student, do go to Kbox to apply the Student Kala card for just $10. The card can be used from now till 31st March 2013. The benefits that you'll get is that everytime you go to Kbox, you only have to pay $6 NETT and you get to sing for 3 hours with a cup of free drink. No additional charges for the tidbits etc. So worth it! So if you're someone who loves singing, please do apply for this card! :) Alright, time for some pictures!

My sushi partners

Sashimi overload

NOMZ! Sashimi!

 Like a pro

Spamming chawamushi. <3

After lunch, we went to walk around, and did a little bit of camwhoring in the washroom. Haha.

Okay, actually only 2 camwhore photos. 

Yeapp, and the last picture that I have to share will be our drinks and tidbits that we had in Kbox.

Do remember to apply for the student Kala card at Kbox okay.

Alright, I shall end my post here. 

Have a fabulous weekend!

Love,

Su Shan
