Jai Thai Restaurant

I had this huge craving for tom yum last month and since my favorite stall to get my tom yum fix in Singapore has closed for good (super sad!!) I had to find decent tom yum to satisfied my craving!! I brought mom to try out Jai Thai Restaurant at Dhoby X'Change, Dhoby Ghaut MRT Station, Singapore. We both ordered their Individual Set Menu that day. The set menus include drinks and dessert of the day.

Tom Yum Rice Set at SGD 6.80

It's Tom Yum Prawn Chili Paste Soup.. The soup was not spicy enough, but overall quite nice..=`)

Pineapple Rice Set at SGD 8.80

The Pineapple Rice Set came with this platter of Spring Roll, Pandan Chicken, Fried Fish, Green Curry Chicken.. All were good!! =`)

Drinks that came with the sets, we had Lime Juice and Ice Lemon Tea..=`)

Mini dessert that came with each set..=`)

Not enough dessert, so we ordered Mango Sticky Rice at SGD 4.50..

How cute is that teddy shaped sticky rice?? =p

I'd say that Jai Thai Restaurant serves affordable and quite decent Thai food. I'd definitely come back to try other dishes. For lists of their menu, check out their website at http://www.jai-thai.com..=`)

Din Tai Fung

Has heard about the famous Xiao Long Bao in this place long enough and finally has the chance to try it.. They are from Din Tai Fung, of course, and we visited their branch at Junction 8, Bishan, Singapore..

Chrysanthemum Tea at SGD 1.00

Steamed Pork Dumplings (Xiao Long Bao) at SGD 6.80

Sauteed Vegetable at SGD 4.00

We didn't know that the portion will be this small when we ordered..=p

This is so good I feel like it now as I type..=p

This wonton soup was not as good as the above chicken soup..=`(

Reunion Dinner Meal

I am to share what we had during reunion dinner last January 2012 just before Chinese new year 2563!!! I can't believe it's almost one month since the Water Dragon year begins!! I guess time flies when you're having fun!! =p

We ordered CNY Takeaway Package from Dian Xiao Er that included Yu Sheng, Herbal Roasted Duck and Dong Po Pork..=`)

Yu Sheng before the toss..=`)

Yu Sheng after the toss..=p

Herbal Roast Duck from Dian Xiao Er..

New Moon's Abalone that mom cooked with Braised Mushrooms..=`)

Dong Po Pork (Steamed Pork with Dong Po Sauce) from Dian Xiao Er..

Mom's Fish Ball Soup..=`)

Mom's Ngo Hiang Rolls and Prawns.. Roasted Duck from Dian Xiao Er..=`)

 

I love the homey feeling of Reunion Dinner tradition.. It doesn't matter what the meal is, togetherness is what we celebrated that day..=`)

Outram Ya Hua Pork Ribs Soup

Apparently Outram Ya Hua Rou Gu Cha Restaurant, located at Keppel Road, PSA Tanjong Pagar Complex, Singapore is very popular among celebrities. Hong Kong celebrities it is. What we had that day:

Pot of Tea at SGD 3.00

Spare Ribs Soup at SGD 7.00

What's Bak Kut Teh without Dough Fritters?? at SGD 2.00

Pig's Trotter at SGD 7.00

Noodle Soup at SGD 1.50

Watercress Soup at SGD 6.00

 

I've been here three times, and I think the food has gone from good to so-so only, and with price like that for the bak kut teh, I'd rather go to Song Fa Bak Kut Teh now..=p Still, it used to be famous and crowded so no harm in giving it a try..=`)

Siam Kitchen

My sister treated me to dinner the other day and we decided to have some Tom Yum Soup at Siam Kitchen, Bugis Junction, Singapore.. The place was super crowded on weekend but the ambiance is quite nice..=`)

MUST. POST.THIS.PICTURE

We supa love the prawn crackers tidbits!! Had it with the chili, supa shiok!! at SGD 1.00

Tom Yum Seafood at SGD 7.60

We asked for non-fish because the sis can't eat fish..

Chicken Masaman (Curry Chicken) at SGD 10.90

Overall the food were quite nice, but we still think that the portions are bit too small..=p

Sure will come back just for the prawn crackers!! =p

Seoul Garden All You Can Eat Buffet..

Went to Seoul Garden for its barbeque buffet at Sun Plaza, Medan with the sis and cousin the other day.. I think everyone is already familiar with this famous franchise, no??

I supa love the Tom Yum Soup!!!

What we had with the soup..

The Meat..

I didn't really eat a lot of meat that time because I were too busy with the tom yum soup and my favorite spicy squid!!

How I love seafood!! All these below were mine!!! =p

The sis and cousin were busy cooking while I sat down and..eat...=p

 

 Weekend lunch at around IDR 130.000 (SGD 20) for 1..
