Bakery @ supertanker pg

I love freshly baked bread.
The smell and the taste of the warm dough.
There is a small bakery in the food court near our market here.
And if you go at the right time in the morning, you can get simple yet  awesome breakfast buns.
Red bean, bak-kuah, char-view, coconut and sausage among others.
But my all time favourite is the cinnamon bun.
Again, its just a simple classic cinnamon bun loaded with raisins. But it just taste so good.
                        

laksa @ farlim

This version is slightly different. The fish meat is basically still in its fish form and not been minced yet.
I actually like it this way.

The soup is also quite sweet and the prawns paste is actually mixed in with the soup when they serve it.
Other shops have it in a small spoon at the side for you to mix it in yourself.

Overall, I actually liked it, though I doubt elpea will.

Another unique version of the  penang laksa .
2 thumbs up.

Rainy Friday...


It's was a cold cold rainy evening and what better way than to get warm with some soup.
Tomyam noodle soup to be exact.


And a plate of belacan fried chicken.
I'm feeling warmer already.

pilgrimage

Spore is actually a mecca for international dining.
Greek, Italian, Spanish, American, German and I'm sure there are many others as well, that I haven't listed.
Oh Let's not also forget the local fare as well.

So much food, so little time.
The point that I make is that the variety is there.
It's just if you dare to try the new cuisine and if you are willing to spend,
A whole new world of food options opens up to you.

But, you do not necessarily need to spend a bomb to eat something new, $6 can already get you a nice hotdog or pasta meal in a food court, among other things.

But, if you want "authentic"  char koay teow or hokkein mee or ban chang koay, then sorry laa ..

Killiney kopitiam @ 67 Killiney rd sg

Theres always a line here in sg. Learn to wait or come at a different time, they say.
 
so here we were in this little "kopitiam" in killiney rd.
they served the normal eggs, toast, spore laksa, mee rebus and mee siam among other things.
even prata.. :-D with curry..
 
anyway, i could not bring myself to order the spore laksa, so i ordered the mee siam
btw, i was actually telling one of the sporeans that they've been lied to all their lives. the laksa that they thought, was actually not.
 
anyway, back to this place.
our table ordered the spore laksa, mee siam, prata with curry and also the hals boiled eggs with kaya toast.
 
the mee siam was surprisngly interesting.
mee siam is made with bihun (rice vermicelli) and the one i had in PG was the dry version.
this one was soupy and had a sweet, sour, spicy tangy taste.
it was actually nice andi liked the soup as well.
 
the coffee was good too.
 
but we had some problem with the eggs. they do not break the eggs for you.
seriously... so slightly messy wth shells on the table.
