Step 114 : Wedding....  

Posted by Bowl in ,

This is the first wedding of 2010

And probably the earliest one too ...
02/01/2010

I din't manage to get a picture of the bride and groom
But manage to get pictures with the bridegroom's sisters....
Haha before u start thinking scandalous thoughts

She's none other than ... Miss Ng Wei Chin (Elmo Murderer)
And Florence Ng

These 2 pictures will allow you to piece the list of people who went
Its funny cause half of us dint know the bride and groom..
And only know....
WEI CHIIINNNNNNN!!!!!!

so yeah... she brought her own support group... haha =)

Ok to first get the pair pictures out of the way...

See.. u see... Wei Chin...
"shhh don't tell any one I killed Elmo..."
Aih... why lar like this one... ELMOOOOO =(

Here's a funny thing that happened
For the night
Wei Chin asked me to sing with her for the brother
Technically the song..
She could do all on her own
But she was worried and scared..

So right... early before the wedding ...
Her brother Donald Ng
Asked me
"Eh Darren... how long u know my sister already ar...."
So I was quite er.. ???
"Quite long already lar.... WHY ar??"
He went...
"Hmmm... Later I want to talk to You"

WAHHH TAKUT OWH!!!
No wander ELMO MATI
AIYOYO
(it runs in the family... murderous GASP!!!)
Hahah =)

Now for the stuff....

I manage to get some of these shots cause I was there earlier

Ok.. now for the rest of the people pictures
Of the Wei Chin Support group....


I think we all really throughly enjoyed our selves
Well at least I did
although there wasn't much going on
And the song I had to sing was.. >.<
Everything else... was really good =)

Now to the FOOD!!!
The place where the dinner was held was know as
Oriental Banquet
Its near British American Tabacco in Pj...
Some would know that place as the Roftran roundabout


The wine served wasn't that fantastic..
BUT it was surely Sweet... =)

This is their 4 season dish thing I think
Don't remember the name...
The thingy on the right... which looks like a hunk of fried stuff
Is actually Soft shell crab
And the top was a mix of vege with baby abalone...
Dish tasted ok...
Nothing fancy but unique presentation for sure


Hmm the shark fin's soup wasn't fantastic
I would think its quite low grade
This one's like the lower ones...
It was weird coloured
And heavy CRAB meat more than anything else

Yeah can drink lar
It tasted ok..
But not fantastic lar

Then came the dish I was anticipating the whole night
The roasted Piglet
BEcause most of those on the table don't actually like this
I WAS SOOOO HAPPY...
I ate close to 10 peices of porky =)

Hehe.. ok Its true I generally like pork
But I still got to criticize it fairly
It was only a 4 out of 10
It was less fragrant than most
and very very oily in comparison to the better ones I've had

The guys saved the head for Cheah cause he was late...
Lols...

There was the fish which I din't take a picture of
Then this...

The baby abalone and the mushroom
Tasted fantastic..
The sauce however was weak
A bit less flavourful

The prawns.. was AWESOME
It was wine-ed a little
And the prawns were fresh

Nothing beats fresh prawns...
Well cooked...
The rest din't really eat much
I remember I ate like 4 prawns or something o.O

This one I din't touch was full already by then
There was the standard desert after that too
Lycee longan thingy

Fun and enjoyable times
Thats its for this wedding
A preety long post...

ENjoy the 28 pictures

There's one in Pavilion in KL

Last but not least....
My fav place in Singapore...
Well.. one off lar... to eat I mean

So far its the only things I've been craving for

This is the beef Goulash from The Soup Spoon
Its all over singapore...
Not very cheap though
But way awesome....


The set meal comes with a half sandwich
Its really quite big...
Thats like 1.5 inch thick
The one I ordered had smoke salmon
My bro's one had chicken
So yeah

The place serves all kinda soups lar.. all must try.. ;)

Looking forward to go there again

Step 105 : Singapore Part 1  

Posted by Bowl in ,

Heys everyone...
Many thanks to the friend who have been always visiting
though I've not been able to update much Cause I've been busy
Things has been hectic..

But I guess thats life


My brother and I decided to buy this huge bottle of jelly beans
At this place called Candy Empire
At Harbour front / Vivo City Mall
The 2 malls are connected but I'm not sure where is the shop exactly...

So ... Life is like this bottle of JellY beans
Some taste good some are just ok.. some are weird/bad
Everyday.. You'll get a different flavoured jelly bean
36 flavours all together I think...
U never really get the same flavour 2 days in a row.. ;)


Now this looks like a table of cutlery right???
Really facinating

Guess again... =) its on the wall.... Wahahhaa

Neways this is in the food court of Ion Orchard
The newest mall on Orchard Road

Do wait for the Part 2... which would be up soon I hope


Check out the freaky faces on the walls weii >.<

This food court is below ground wan
its really HUGE
but I dint wanna so jakun take out my camera
and snap snap snap snap right

And now the food...
Good Lord Help Us ALL!!

Ok starting with what I had

Can you belive that this is known as HOKKIEN MEE?? o.O
It was Weird MAXIMUM
And this was one of those stalls where there seem to be
Quite a number of people buying from
>.<

It was about 6-8 bucks... SG$
The only thing good about it was
the scallop and the prawn...
FRESH!!


Singapore Beef Noodle
1 word
FLAT!!

This may be weird but
I got this feeling its a little too clean
The beef doesn't taste as good..
Soup quite plain Taugeh and soup taste...
and soo on

In the mall is very nice lighting
Though I can't really remember where in the mall is this
But BLUE LIGHTS!!!
I'm quite sold!!

Last random picture for this set....
HEART

Part 2 in the next few days =)

Step 104 : San Lao Hor Fun  

Posted by Bowl in ,

Its true that its often only locals
Know where to get the simple good stuff
Things like wa tan hor - cantonese noodles
Or
Kong FU chow

Only the locals know where to get them

What more Singapore =p

This is one of the local noodles..
Well I'm not as sure wether its really local or not
But one thing for sure
I've never heard or seen it in KL

San Lao Hor Fun .. pronounced as San LAW not la-o

it does not at all have the chinese flavour blast that you get off
Hokkien mee and such
But this tastes plain simple

Hor fun , tau geh, slight broth.. and fish slices
You really need to develop a taste for food in Singapore

Well the big restaurant stuff never goes wrong
But its the food court the places u go to save ur every SGD
That you got to bare with just so you can buy that extra item =)

Look for Everton Park Food court
Or
Spottis wood road ... there is a show by the corner

Look out for it if you would like to try this ;)

A taste of chinese for the chinese food lovers...

Step 103 : Frames  

Posted by Bowl in

Yos... to all those at home in KL
=)

Greetings from the Island under Malaysia
Have I got a place for all of you to visit =)

Frames @ TTDI Plaza


The place is just sooo Nice to hang out
Ok its not that huge
But its way free and empty during the day time..

Their menu contains a variety of stuff
Pastas, Sandwiches, Steaks

There is a Rack of Lamb for RM36.90 on the menu
Cannot really remember the price

Set lunch starts at 12pm-3pm
They have a few things...
And they are decently prices
All comes with both Ice Lemon Tea and Mushroom Soup

This is one of the sandwich set in the Set lunch
This was about RM 16 I think

Really quite filling
If you are hungry and want sandwiches
I belive these will fill you up


This is what I had...
Beef steak .. or so its called
But its really not a steak

Ok .. here's the special or some would consider a rip off
The beef steak in the set lunch is actually
A well
Grilled beef burger patty + ratatouille ...
Yes I dint know it was called ratatouille till my friend told me

A grilled beef patty as a steak is preety dry...
But Over all .. ok lar.. if u can get past the dryness

This Cake is know as Chocolate Muse Cake
BAsically its just a super rich choco cream cake la
It makes your hair stand if you whack it all on your own
Unless u massively sweet tooth person

Apparently their Tiramisu is not bad...
Preety Good ler...

Ok .. the main thing for all of you to know and Go and try

No... I've not tried a Goliath burger
I was just talking to the boss of the place
His name is Xanthus Kong

He said at the very least the burger is 2.5 x a chillies burger
No idea how fantastic it tastes
But I heard its HUGE...
And probably the biggest burger in Asia

It feeds about 3 lar

So yeah
Tab Brian.. We got a job to do.. ;)

Keane when u get back lar har..

Cheers

Step 101 : Delayed...  

Posted by Bowl in

There's been a huge lag time of my posts...
Things that occur like maybe about
3 days to one week
before its actually posted up...

First to talk about Krispy Cream

Well... their doughnuts are really nice
Pleasantly satisfying in comparison to Jco or Big Apple

Note... No other original glazed doughnuts tastes better than Krispy Creams's
But really... THe most You could have is 2
and 3 is asking for a swift death with sugar on top

But do note that Jco's Assorted doughnuts are much much tastier
Than those I've seen in Krispy Cream or Big apple
No personal fav's but I do recommend Krispy Cream's Original Glazed

Talking about Iced Chocolate
This was pleasant
Sweet but not over whelming
but one word... Ex


Yes Hokkien mee
Location...
Many of YOu who been around DJ/DU are would know
Of the famouse 'Damansara Hokkien Mee'
Just along the row beside the LDP

Well.. I went to their branch at Kota Damansara
And my verdict...
well.. NO...

A bit too watery and lack of infused flavour
By my taste
This is really not of Good standard...
You would do better for these Hokkien Mee
at
Jalan 222

This Pork Mi Hoon
However was a really quite superb
It was peppery
But the soup and the pork along with the mi hoon
A burst of Flavours...
A must try...


This was just ok
Wa Tan Hor
A bit way too flat for me..
But can eat lar...
It lacks a bit of sauce fusion with the noodles

Its often important to fry it in away the noodles
Absorbs the flavour of the soup
But this din't really work lar..
So just
AVERAGe
