wanton mee

In case you don't know, the word "Wanton" is an actual English word.

"sexually lawless or unrestrained; loose; lascivious; lewd: wanton behavior. " from dictionary.com 4th denotation. & seems like my wanton mee, is living up to its name. & It's so delicious everybody wants it.
& the really salty soup. is a big bonus!

imprisoned imprisoner

& i've employed singapore's cheapest worker to help me type out my homework! THANKS BABY!
& yes, he brought me to carl's junior for a dinner, as well as to take me away from days of boring myself with homework!.

just a sidenote: Carl's JR onion rings isn't good. The crust is too hard & thick! i don't like this kind of crunchiness!
cute notes aren't always lenient & benevolent. It's a pain to study grammar.
& more grammar! :/ i'm not learning just how it works! I AM REQUIRED TO FORM SENTENCES GIVEN THE CONDITIONS! eg form a sentence that has a compund clause, with a verb phrase ending with an adverbial.

F*****. It's damn difficult okay!
& all these to help me survive the day

Food again

my world class boyfriend brought me here to satisfy my craving for Frog porridge. & we went there right after we visited his niece! HAHAHA!

Yes! my bf's an uncle now!

Funan's Pasta Mania is bad

my prawn aglio tastes as if the pasta was just boiled & not flavoured. there's barely any olive oil & garlic present. very little prawns & tomato slices. & i swear all the other pasta mania outlets cook better than this with more ingredients.

So bad i didn't finish it.
even this meatball pasta is not flavourful enough. This chef really tested the limits of the worst cooks in the world. Nobody can do worse by making even a tomato based pasta so bad.

& this chef did it.

farewell #2

No, this is not an advert. I'm sharing because I want people who need it to benefit! & My cosmetics aren't cheap!
OH YES! POPEYE! How can anyone get tired of this ? i've been having this for the 2nd consecutive day!
& what i gave Jun Kai, my best mahjong buddy for his farewell. Gummy bear 13 wonders mahjong set. LOL

Coerced

PEOPLE ALERT! This zichar is located at one of the coffeeshops parallel to the Clementi MRT Station. It's called Ming Kitchen Seafood Restaurant.

My mission is to warn you guys not to eat from this stall. The food sucks! the service sucks too!

When i ordered, i asked how long will my order take. They told me "very soon" so i took their word for it, & waited. their very soon amounted up to a whole 20 mins. I WAS AGITATED.

SO, i approached one of the cheena ladies, she couldn't give me a response & promised to get back to me. BUT SHE DID NOT. I SAW HER WALK AWAY & ATTENDING TO OTHER NEW VICTIMS WHO AREN'T AWARE THAT THE STUPID RESTAURANT HAVE GONE BEYOND THEIR CAPACITY TO COOK WHAT PEOPLE ORDERS.

Well, i don't have the luxury of time. so i went over. There's this poor guy who wanted to order his fav veggie. THEY RAN OUT OF IT. nevermind. He tried ordering another one. THEY AGAIN, SAID THEY RAN OUT OF IT. nevermind. THEN THE STUPID WORKER CARRIED ON TO HARDSELL HIM ANOTHER VEGGIE & she was so persistent the man didn't have the courage to reject her.

NO FOOD DON'T OPEN A BLOODY RESTAURANT WHEN YOU CANNOT CATER TO CUSTOMER NEEDS LAH!

so i was so angry i wanted to cancel my order. but the cheena girl said it's ready already, so i have to pay. OKAY LOR.

So, let's talk bout the WORST HOR FUN IN THE WORLD:

1. Only the gravy is cooked. The noodle is not. Resulting in an uncomfortable combination of semi-hot, semi-cold food that even when stirred, it didn't taste right.

2. The fish cake is so fishy, tastes like it was rotten & made me pretty sure they used cheapo ingredients

3. the veggies were a poor mix of cabbage & few sticks of xiao bai cai.HOW UNPROFESSIONAL! No zichar mixes veggies! MAKE ME WONDER IF WHAT I ATE HAPPENED TO BE THE LAST BATCH OF VEGGIE THAT THEY TRIED SO HARD TO GATHER FROM PROBABLY THE HOLES OF BASKETS, OR STRANDS OF STALK FROM THE SINK & WHAT NOT.

4. I did not manage to eat any slices of pork. IT WAS ALL TENDONS & LIGAMENTS & FATS. woah. they're damn pro. they are so thrifty they make sure every part of the pig is served & not wasted.

5. It tastes bland. it's like food for my 70 year old grandmother.

6. WORSE OF ALL, i waited so long to eat this pile of shit.

but yeah, i was so hungry, i had to eat. took one for the mass, it's your choice whether to eat there again.

& THE WORKERS THERE HAVE THIS FUCK FACE I SWEAR I HAVE THE URGE TO KILL THEM. WHAT POOR SERVICE ATTITUDES!

NEVER WILL I BE APPEASED.

& the restaurant should have known better when they decide to employ low quality staff & buy in low quality food & chefs.

Ambience good for couples. & when we were there, it's not crowded. Good place to chill & hang out because the place was very comfortable with the minimum noise, unlike normal restaurants infested with all sorts of people & bothers me with their conversations too loud for anyone to enjoy the silence.
Plus point: NO SERVICE CHARGE.
This is what i ate. I regretted sharing with boyfriend.
bolognese & Linguine.
i'm tired of typing. LOL. but i've put the pictures of the prices of these foods in chronological order (please refer to last picture of this post)


Reasonable pricing & good food. :) One of the places i feel my money is well spent! HAHA.

PS: Pardon the poorly lit pictures. I forgot my camera! LOL

immerse into the festive season!

During Chinese New Year, this is how the fridge will look like! filled with all the food!

& dad bought a whole box of Birds' Nest & Abalone!
& ours is an abalone yu sheng. LOL. Modified because some of us don't eat raw salmon!
Huat-ar!
My family's tradition is to gather around at new year's eve so that we get all our red packets & we visit all my paternal side relatives. & therefore, i don't have much visiting to do when we do this!
oh yes, look at the red packets flooding my pocket!
my officer & commando couzzies! they're like so muscular & cool okay!
& yes, my cousin's husky, Milo, weighs over 20 KG. i almost dropped the dog. OMG. I swear my arms gave way! & look at it, it's so cute! like a mini kangaroo!
& of course! Darling gets to carry him!
Such a lovely dog isn't it? :D

& yes. both of us reaped the benefits from both sides of our family. = more $$ for dating! hahahahhaas! YAY!

I'm adding this to the list of reasons why we should't marry young.

born chef (:

I've made mini pancakes for us today. I'm really good at it. No, the art of making pancakes isn't as easy as it seems, it's not just about pan frying flour. It's really about putting the right amount of water into the batter, the right amout of oil in the pan, & the getting right temperature of the fire.

So here's my way of making pancakes:

Water :
-I really don't know how to tell you how much water to put. Gauge yourself. It comes with more practise (:

- to be on the safe side, just follow instructions behind the packaging.

-You may want to use milk to make your pancake more flavourful. (:

Fire :
-Fire cannot be too big, your pancake will burn.

-Fire cannot be too small either, your pancake's face will turn brown to black if you slow cook it. & either too big a fire or too small, will result in a pancake with a burnt face, and taste sooty & burnt.

-The fire has to be medium. [Oh u guess it right! ;)]

Oil

-U really cannot scrimp on the oil. If you do, u won't get those nice golden brown edges that lines the pancake. They give the boring pancake a texture twist. You get crunchy edges! (& yeah, i'm saying pancakes without the crispy edges LIKE MACDONALD'S, are boring!)

-but of course, if you're very health conscious, u can even skip the oil with a non-stick pan. But be warned it's gonna taste ugly.
Completing it with a pack of stir fried bacons & the meal is complete! It's sinful + awesome! & yeah, i kope-d Macdonalds Maple syrup because i just happened to have one with me (: & u know it's good.

Supermarkets are selling Macdonald's Maple Syrup for $14.80 - $15 ++. It's not worth the price when u can always save a packet when you visit! It's not being cheapo okay! Not like you eat pancakes EVERYDAY?! & that Maple Syrup bottle is soooo BIGGGG, i think even before you finish it, you'll either get diabetes, or, it'll be expired.

It's either you die, or the maple syrup dies. LOL. boyfriend & i didn't even use half of that mac's maple syrup!

Therefore, i think Macdonalds syrup should be sold in smaller quantities. To cater to people like me who don't see the value in buying a ultra big bottle of syrup which i barely use, but still have the use for it. :D


& At night, bf & i visited Long John Silvers because they were having a grand opening promotion.

"Don't Miss the catch of the Day!"

& yeah, i didn't miss it. It was a free Fish with every meal purchased. & their Fish is pretty fresh! *only this outlet, i think.

We also had Mango pomelo sago! It was on promotion too! because this Clementi new shopping centre just opposite the MRT station have just opened from their revamp. Usual price was $4.90 or sth so it was a steal! YAY.

---------------------------------------

My day couldn't be better, when lastly, i realised that i have left my laptop carelessly in the toilet of that shopping centre. BUT, people with integrity still exist! they logged into my MSN & tried to contact me. created a great hoo-hah & stirred a commotion amongst my friends. & suddenly my friends kept sms-ing me to verify the statements of that Samaritan, whether i did lose my laptop.

I panicked. But luckily that guy was very kind, the Samaritan even took the trouble to send my laptop over to the East side, since he was driving. The deed have regained my faith in humanity that not everyone is corrupted.

I ADVOCATE INTEGRITY & ABHOR PEOPLE WITHOUT SUCH VALUES.

Porbably i wouldn't feel the pain for losing a laptop because i'm not that needy. IMAGINE SOME POOR GUY/GIRL/HOUSEHOLD WHO USED UP EVERY PENNY IN THE HOUSE, OR SAVE UP FOR YEARS TO HELP THEM IN THEIR EDUCATION NEEDS LOSE IT. the person who picked what's not theirs did not only steal a laptop from them, but also cause agony & losing of the competitive edge among their peers.

& sadly, ONLY education is about the most constructive & workable way for people to break out of their poverty cycle.

I can't imagine. & probably that person gained something, but lost their conscience in the process too. & one that will haunt him forever.

Remember, "All that glitters is not gold".

Last baking lesson, & pawn changi tonight !

Played overnight mahjong.... damn shag! till 7am! but i still had to go for baking lessons later on, so i didnt get to sleep much! & i have to do this now...
In preparation for my last lesson, i had to ice my own cake first! first i get a ready made cake for only $1.95 from sheng siong! It's really convenient, & it didnt taste that bad, so it'll make a good cake for birthdays! only if u wanna make everything by hand! HAHAHA.

then i coloured the icing...PURPLE! cause this was intended as a surprise gift for Kai wei's belated birthday. AHAHHA.
then u spread it over, in chunks! and you rotate the cake around! & there you go! i'm not that skilled so that explains the edgy edge. furthermore, my icing wasnt' of the right consistency. It should be thicker!

Leave it to crust. & because it was too watery, i had to put it inside the fridge for it to crust.
so we are there.... we had to decorate our own cake & we learnt how to do the ribbon rose on our last lesson! (:
Allyson was so nice to teach us how to do the Wilton rose too! it's the one with more petals! it looks so awesome!

& this is my cake! yay! hope Kai Wei liked it! & it's not meant for her to eat, just to see see only. cause the cake expires the following day! HAHAHAS!
& this was Carmen's cake! i drew the cute piggy, & that's patrick ng. LOL.
Some other very lovely decorations done by the others..... it wasn't the best of our creativity, & the pictures didn't do us much justice. We had so little time to decorate! so i guess this is the best we could do in such a limited time




& we took one last shot with Allyson. She has been a very patient & lovely teacher! (:
& a group shot.
& in the afternoon, hwee kiat drove me to eat my long-craved for Bakutteh! I keep forgetting to take down their address/store name. so you guys could go try some other time. it's pretty good! & if you drive, it's free parking. it's in Katong. somewhere near Katong Mall (& it's under renovation btw)
Have i told you how much i love the life here at the East side?! almost every weekend i get to go out with bf's buddies & roam around the place for supper, mahjong & chilling sessions!

HAHA. this shot is damn kuku. we were playing veggie samurai on the ipad, until we got chased away by the staff there saying that we have to buy their stuff if we wanna play on their ipad. WTH. LOL.
settled for Swensens after much deliberation. it was a pain choosing the place because Yuxiang insisted on TCC, some didnt wanna go far, some didnt wanna eat 'high-class' food. HAHAHA. so we settled for this. convenient, & not so "HIGH-CLASS"!

Yuxiang's such a lamb! he's always happily posing for my camera (:
spot the camoflaged 'Starbucks'. HAHAHA!

I'm sorry, but i really hate starbucks! COFFEE BEAN ROCKS!
& by the way, just so you know, Yu xiang is really a CAM WHORE! lol. super hilarious!
& he likes the superman effect here. WTH. lol!
