The date was 09.06.2011 until 12.06.2011, we took a flight by Singapore Airline to Changi Airport, SINGAPORE Here We Come!!!
Well, to have this post slightly organized, let's start from Day 1 aye? It's more about travelling for food and shopping, also we went Universal Studio Singapore for a wide-eye wandering. So, here we go!
Day 1
 |
| On Board |
Kids:" Man, they have TV in this plane! Cool!" Yes, they always complain that Air Asia doesn't have TV screen to keep them occupied.
 |
| Only served for Kids |
 |
| Foreigner, fill up the Immigration Form please |
 |
| Long wait |
 |
| Sommerset 313 |
Went to Food Republic, they have "Not-so-friendly Face", "Very-long-black-face Cleaners", "Not-so-fresh Fresh Fruit Juice", all so commercialised till they forget what the hell they're serving, pathetic.
 |
| Very Cute Maple Ad! |
 |
| Slurpee Big Bang Cup - Design 1 |
Design 2 is still yet to be launched, any Singaporean mind to get me one? :)
 |
| Big Yawn |
 |
| "We are the Future!" |
First time of them heading the sky bridge in Havelock Road, and requested to take a picture! How adorable, a naive mind thinking that everyone is hungered for.
 |
| "Jie, faster take picture, it's our first time on the sky bridge!" |
 |
| Riverview Hotel |
So called the 4-star hotel, but we experienced very bad services, they charged us for 3 rooms while we only need 1, saying that my mum clicked the website 3 times to check-in, but the receipt shows only 1. Pathetic still, after 20 minutes of explanation they still stand their stand, and my dad got mad and screwed them up, 5 minutes later they cancel the rooms. Being sexist or what, I pity my mum, the manager-on-duty Mr Roger showed NO RESPECT at all by accusing my mum on her 'mistake' instead of his hotel's, KNS!
4-star? I would make it 2 now. You can kiss your stars good bye.
By the way, thank you Ms Jane - The Receptionist, that helped us throughout the whole process, you can just do way better than that mister back there, salute!

| The Merry Men |
For dinner, met a man looking for his missing son, hope he found him, God bless.
 |
Selected House Wine with Iced Water
☆☆ |
 |
Wild Mushroom Soup
☆☆☆☆ |
 |
| Till the Last Drop |
It was this great, until he can't give up the very last drop.
 |
Pork Sausage
☆☆☆☆ |
It comes with wild mushrooms, slightly roasted, butter mashed potato along with mushroom sauce, sprinkles of black pepper, wonderful!
 |
Medium Well - Beef Steak
☆☆☆☆ |
We requested for medium well but turn out to be a medium rare one, thing is, it's so juicy and thick in taste! See the potatoes there? Look normal to you but it's crunchy on the skin and smoothie soft at the inside! Just best in everything!
 |
Carbonara with Bacons
☆☆☆☆ |
Yes, another 4-star! Unlike other carbonara, this piece here is just nice in place, not too sticky not too creamy, comes with sliced bacon, some fatty oil with 'em but, forget 'bout the diet, the saltiness of those bacons match so well with the cream. Fantastic!
 |
Tomato with Toasted Bread
☆☆☆ |
There is a name for this dish but I just can't recall it. Anyway this is just some normal sliced toasted bread, topped up with diced tomatoes and seasoning with herbs. Sweet and fresh as you can see!
 |
| Very Cosy 'The Merry Men' |
Day 2
 |
| Furama Centre |
 |
| Heading Chinatown Complex! |
 |
| Chinatown Point |
 |
| Food Court @ Chinatown Complex |
 |
| McD McNuggets |
 |
| Kungfu Panda II - Happy Meal |
 |
| Kids with Brunches |
 |
Dry Beef Noodle
☆☆☆ |
Mum used to eat this almost everyday (that's what she claimed) during her studies in SG, saying that the old man cooked better than this current aunty, thus a 4-star noodle just got 3-star left. What's nice 'bout this is the beef meatball there is humongous! The gravy there is a bit tasteless though...
 |
Beef Soup + Sliced Beef
☆☆☆☆ |
And this deserves a 4-star! The sliced beef is so thin and smooth that can just chew it away with few bites! And the soup there is so 'gao' in taste as well, till the very last drop!
 |
| Shopping @ OG Mall |
 |
| Lan Kee Hot & Cold Drinks |
We picked this 'cause it's just close to our table but turn out their stuff is quite nice!
 |
| Chop Hean Kuan Dim Sum |
We saw there's another stall down the road that making all these 'bao' and dim sum, looks tempting so we decided to give it a try!
 |
Iced Syrup
☆☆☆ |
A normal recipe for my family, just plain sugar syrup, evaporated milk and ice. The way they mix the sugar syrup, I kinda like that idea, it tastes differently from different bites! Not bad!
 |
Egg Tart
☆☆☆ |
Well I guess this is non-halal, but the aroma of the egg is there, nice! And of course the crunchie crunch, all time favourite for the kids!
 |
Mango Longan
☆☆☆☆ |
A refreshing ice blended during the hot afternoon, nice and sweet with tiny diced mango in it (I would prefer a bigger dice!) Yea, they can improve this with the size of the mango! 5 pieces of longan on the side, YUM!
 |
Pork Bao
☆☆☆☆ |
Look at that filling, and the 'bao's skin, I would say it's the exact opposite way of how those 'commercial baos' are like. As a meat lover, this is it! Look at that, just a slight touch up for vegetable, and that's all - MEAT!
 |
| Me + MRT ticket |
Pardon me, I hardly appear in any of these pictures so... Yes, the MRT ticket! For a single journey and non-SG president, you can use this by purchasing through the machine, and then get the refund for the MRT card of $1. Remember to claim it!!!
 |
| Lovely Kids @ Vivo City |
 |
Spaghetti Bolognese
☆☆☆ |
Normal recipe, nothing special, can't really expect much from the food court aye?
 |
Fried Carrot Cake and Egg
☆☆☆☆ |
This is awesome! Something simple but so tasty! Carrot cake is so soft, the egg is tasting good with slight sprinkle of salt and green onion, nice!
 |
Fish Ball Noodle
☆☆☆☆ |
I'm amazed by this 'bian' noodle too, just some fish balls and fish cakes, they make it taste so nice in the noodle and compliment so well with those side dishes.
 |
Fried Kuey Teow
☆☆☆☆ |
 |
| More detailed one |
Mum says SG has a saying, go to the stall that people are queuing for! And yes they have this very long queue and wallah! N.I.C.E!!! Halal I guess, every piece of kuey teow inside is deeply in taste, big prawns, big fish cakes, and big portion! Worth a try!
 |
| CK Undergarment Dispenser |
Something funny to share about, honestly, will guy actually play this vending machine to get the underwear, or just for the sake of playing it?
 |
| Sanrio @ Vivo City |
 |
Gippsland Double Cream
☆☆☆☆ |
This tiny lil bottle of double cream cost us around $10! Seriously this bottle is heavenly fantastic! My father is obsessed over strawberries and cream and this is exactly what it is for!
 |
Humongous Strawberry
☆☆☆☆ |
This actually comes in a package inclusive of 15 strawberries, cost around $20 - imported! Not only about the size, also the sweetness and see that color?! Very tempting aye?
With double cream and sprinkle of sugar, wash the berries a bit and dip and dunk! Wallah! There goes the 4-star DIY dessert!
Day 4
Please pardon me for not including Day 3 in this post, as it's a special post only for Universal Studio Singapore, I shall share it real soon after this lovely post :)
 |
| Food Court @ Tiong Bahru Market |
Very huge food court, after one round of walking, again we notice some stalls with long queue, we stopped by and ordered!
The above 3 pictures are stalls that selected by us. Spent around 8 to 10 minutes of queuing but worth the time! Check these out!
 |
Char Siew Rice
☆☆☆☆ |
Okay this char siew here, sliced nicely - not too thick nor too thin, very tender at the inside and amazingly the skin is very crunchy! Of course the char siew sauce! Sweet enough that can have it plainly just with the rice!
 |
Fish Ball Noodle
☆☆☆ |
Just like the noodle in Johor, they make it with tomato sauce, yes something different but I still prefer soy sauce type of noodle.
 |
Marinated of Everything
☆☆☆☆ |
 |
Inclusive of 'Siew Yuk', Sliced Duck, Egg, and 'Mui Choi'
☆☆☆☆ |
Marinated so gao that everything taste so good! You won't want to give up that sauce there, pour it all over your rice, side it with a slice of duck and egg yolk, yummm...
 |
Kuey
☆☆☆☆ |
They name it kuey which I don't really know why, but mum said this is another kind of 'noodle', again till the very last drop, I haven't really taste the texture of it but the soup is awesome!
 |
Black Rice
☆☆☆☆ |
This might be fattening, but hey, every single piece of rice is wrapped up with sauce!
 |
Secret Recipe
☆☆☆☆ |
Like the Tawau way, we love chilli that has squeeze of lime in it and this is it! It's like spicy and sour and the same time with the marinated meat, oh yesh!!!
Hahaha, hungry already? (I hope so...) There's more to come on the upcoming post, stay tune for Universal Studio Singapore - More about Food and Travelling!
I do hope you enjoy this post too, aren't you?
Good day, Reader.
