Sakae Sushi

Sakae sushi is where I go when I need alone time during lunch, particularly when there is massive trouble and you just wanna sit down and chow.

Has all my favorites - shrimp head innards and unagi

shrimp head and sesame seeds!

Regular rates are 3 SGD for colored plates and 7 SGD for premium (red) ones.

They had a 1 for 1 promo for colored plates so in order to avail of it separately, we had to sit on different tables. We're smart girls.

BBQ at Pally's in Chinese Gardens

This weekend we headed for BBQ at Pally's in her condo in Chinese gardens. Reaching the station was an entirely new experience cause it at the other end of the island. In the end it was clean and simple fun with new friends =)

Otah madness!

Straight from the freezer

Ramly burger

We checked out the Halal food expo last night and I got a taste of Ramly Burger - Malaysia's most famous burger. Basically what they do is they put together the patty with all versions of sauces and veggies and wraps them in egg (SGD 3).

Note the patty and the oozing sauce at the side.

Some things new from West Coast Plaza

What I love about my friends is that they humour my crazy food hobby and sometimes make food tripping a major part of the weekend agenda.

Clark, Wen and I went to West Coast Plaza and got food that we've never tasted. My share was at most SGD 6

When eating communal food, we go by the no piece of shame rule. Translation: dig in before it's gone. Hence, the messy pictures

Some new squid recipe!

Thai lemon chicken

Some Malay curry-based veg

Mutton curry (am not a lamb lover tho)

Nasi goreng with Iklan Bilis - made me a believer!

My hawker staple at SGD 1.5

So long sweet summer

Ever since I got out of uni, I've lost consciousness of summer fun and instead look forward to long holidays to plan what can function as a vacation.

Here's to my surrogate family who packs endless fun over the weekends to reenergize me for the next 5 days.

We obviously just dialled for delivery and pulled stuff out of the cupboard.

Food Festival in Clark Quay

Clark, Wen, Michelle and I had dinner in the Clark Quay Food Festival. Although I've tasted most of the food they featured, the Festival merits a post because I've never had so much delish food for just SGD 12 (we shared the food we bought, but still!)

Tapas Tree Paella for SGD 8/plate

Nasi Lemak with Iklan Bilis for SGD 6

Grilled chicken with coconut and spices for SGD 2 per stick

Casuarina Plain prata for 4 SGD

King Satay Chicken Satay for SGD 4

Chen Fu Ji crab bun for 2 SGD each

Le Cairo Cafe in Haji Lane

After Anna, Liz and I had our visual feast in Haji Lane, we settled in Le Cairo Cafe because we were too hungry to walk back. The dishes were all nothing short of delish!

Random vintage

July 2004. We were university freshmen, eating in a shack of a restaurant in UP Village. They served unlimited rice. Sulit, but keep in mind that unlimited rice can ruin you.

April 2008. I lost my entire clan in Lourdes so I waited by the church steps and ate my lunch - peanut butter, jelly and water - freebies from the buffet breakfast we has in Amsterdam 3 days before. I was that hungry, poor, and desperate.

May 2008 in Pisa. This was right outside the courtyard of the tower. Ran out of names?

May 2008. Welcome dinner by some family friends in Florence.

August 2008. In the middle of Jalan Doraisamy, one of Kuala Lumpur's clubbing spots, was the cupcake shop Bisou. I cut out the scantily clad women from this picture.

Aug 2008. Tom yum for breakfast in Chinatown in KL. This was the first time I travelled alone on a 6 hour bus, all the while feeling the electricity evoked by mobility.
