French Pate


A simple french breakfast for yesterday morning

Of greens, and seafood




In a bid to be less sinful due to my over-eating in KL, I have decided to go green!
Yummilicious sashimi salad and mixed seafood salad from Kuriya Fish Market

A pretty reasonable amount for healthy food. In fact they serve really yummy sushi that I love to indulge in when I'm feeling abit poor or lazy to dine at Sushi Tei.

The salad sauce is a tad salty thought. Please don't add the whole container of it like what I did :p

Love Kuriya's lobster salad sushi. It has a tasty concoction of wasabi and lobster. 

*swoons*

And love the sashimi avocado handroll which seems to always be out of stock. I would bat my lashes at the counter chef  request the counter chef to do one for me. I really love it after I tried it the first time in Australia and this is the only place that I found which serve the same dish.

My new loot from my KL trip.

It was totally love at first sight. Those beautiful and graceful butterflies fluttering on the chiffon top <3
I knew I had to get it. I got it from Kenanga wholesale city which my cousin's bf brought us there for shopping. It's quite awesome for me as I snagged good deals  there. Got myself a roooarrr, yes, a tiger tunic. A massive tiger face indeed

Happy food


When east meets west.

Absolutely love the oriental designs of this cup.
Made myself a cuppa camomille tea to soothe me to sleep for the stress at work



A fishy treat for myself after completing 4km after 4 trillion years of hibernation


Deliciously good. 

These cherry tomatoes were bought from cold storage. They seriously taste more delicious than those from NTUC

Dinner at Uncle Leong's

First founded in a neighbourhood coffeeshop amidst the friendly Ang Mo Kio estate, the ever-popular Uncle Leong Seafood has now heightened into a full-fledged restaurant at Punggol End. Still keeping its modesty, Uncle Leong Seafood serves up the day's first dish as they do daily; at 4.30pm sharp and very delicious.



My favourite photo of the post.

POWER RANGERS GO GO GO!
I remembered how I was a fan of them in the past hehe



Spicy fried fish skin

Abit too crispy-like-crackers for me. 
I still like how my mum used to pan fry it <3


We ordered claypot crab. We were lucky to have one with much roe.
But there was a tad more bee hoon than we could handle.
I think this claypot can feed 3 mouths. Our tummies nearly exploded even though we told the waitress we would like a small crab for 2 to eat.

The soup was only average and I think there are better ones out there (:

One day Desaru trip




fourth august, twenty twelve

Yayys, å››å¼¯å²› , here we come!(:

Just hop on a bum boat at Changi Jetty for 12 SGD, or top up 2 SGD, like what we did to enjoy the air-con and hide from the heat of the sun . But you also have a chance to feel the cool winds when the bum boat glides on the water towards the little island.

Love how the wind felt against my face. But be careful to grab the railings if you are standing out on the open as the water can be a lil choppy. You won't want to start your short trip with a wet outfit (;

There is no fixed schedule for the bum boats. We were lucky to have a full strength of 12 to get the bum boat going. Apparently, return trips are arranged with the bum boat uncle and the payment is made after the trip is completed.

J also arranged to have 3 cabs to drive us around for the day at 160RM per cab that can seat four passengers. Quite reasonable as it boils down to approx 16 SGD per day per head


First stop was breakfast!(:

Bf's colleague, J brought us to enjoy the famous Bak Kut Teh in å››å¼¯å²›.
Apparently, just tell the taxi uncle you want to eat Bak Kut Teh and he will bring you to this coffee place.

On top of the bkt, we still ordered soya sauce chicken, and pig trotters. The aunty said she will give us trotters that were less fatty, but they were still very fatty to me.

I would just say, go for the bkt (:

I like it that the soup wasn't too spicy or have too much of the herbs.


All full and satisfied




And that's Cali, my bf's part time gf. *pouts*
But isn't she absolutely lovable. I love the 1st pic of them together. So happy and natural.
Apparently I couldn't make it for the previous trip and both of them had so much fun. In fact I think I saw her  quite disappointed when le bf appeared at the jetty with me.

I saw her skipping in circles from the far, being absolutely excited. But when I appeared from behind, her face fell. 

oops.

that was the first time we met


Second stop: Desaru Fruit Farm






It's feeding time at Desaru for these ducks/geeses.
Check out the fat cat lazing in the middle of the birds



Floral top/tunic, bugis, shorts random. Shades. ray bans

See that yellow patch? It's actually a mozzie patch from 3M. And i think it works like magic. No mozzie bites for me (:

It's amazing the kinda things that are invented now eh (; All of us have a yellow sticker patch (or 2) on us. Really looked like a tour group


Waiting for durians to drop.

Guess what's in that big backpack?
Le bf cooked barley for the trip. Cali had a small bottle too.

Bf said that Cali recently nose bled cos she was too heaty, and so she should drink some barley.

He really dotes on the lil gf (: 
















We opted for the tour package at Desaru for 20RM that gave us a tour guide to bring us around the fruit farm, and telling us some facts about the different plants/trees/fruits.

  


 

Spotted Cali hiding under the trees due to the sweltering heat. Her cheeks were all flushed from the sun and she asked me to join her under the shade

So I grabbed her for some camwhoring shots.

This lil gf can really camwhore. check out her expressions! I concede defeat,








And then it was the mini zoo (:

My favourite part of the Desaru trip actually. There were monkeys, turkeys, one ostrich, python, hamsters, rabbits and goats. Even a rooster which perched on a bird stand

A pity we were only allocated like 10 minutes for it.

The trip finished with some bee eduation in an air-con room






We had lunch at J's uncle's restaurant.

Oh what a spread. We had baby kai lan, claypot with egg (that was really good), deep fried crayfish (love the crispy crunch), toufu, chicken, fish with spicy sauce and salted egg crabs!

I liked how they steamed the fish for just the right duration as garoupa's tend to be oversteamed, even at 5-star hotels. But I was pretty disappointed with the crabs as the sauce wasn't superb and the crabs was pretty small.

For a pax of 12 including little Cali, this meal only set us back 37RM each.
Don't know if it is the special rates that J got us, but it was realllyyyy cheap! 

It was a pity this was also our last stop due to the rain. We initially planned to go to the ostrich farm but couldn't make it as we booked the bum boat uncle to fetch us back at 5pm

Cali's mum took this for us (:
He is one lucky man isn't he
2 pretty girls in his arms (;



 But nevertheless, it was a fun short trip

till then 

<3
