fifty

Mummy's birthday last week brought Grandma and us to No Signboard at Vivocity because she wanted to have chilli crab. Unfortunately, I'm going to be unkind and say that the random 煮炒 place opposite my house serves better chilli crabs than what we got here. The appetizer plate, shark's fin (oops for being politically incorrect) and the somewhat-dry-but-still-palatable yam dessert (orh nee) were not too bad, but overall the brand's pretty overrated. :|

Anyway, happy birthday Mummy! :)
You will always be the best mummy in the world~

Everybody knows I love the zha jiang mian at Asian Kitchen. I eat it almost exclusively when I'm there, except for their village tofu, which is sour and crispy. I like the cucumber in both dishes... It really adds a crunch that I can't get enough of. This was dinner with Chingy after a studio session that finally provided some relief. She got me these postage stamps with pretty depictions of trees! *loves* Just as I was showing her this website I found while I was looking for pictures of Cinnamomum iners. :)

indecisive us.

this was a good after-studio dinner with puteh and smellyhead last week? i haven't eaten at Mayim for quite some time since i encountered a foul-tasting har gao there when i went with mummy a few years ago. they've changed their menu since... and it's become pretty extensive, although confusing. i'm not sure if it was because i was famished, but i thought the food was quite palatable. they have a range of condiments on the table that are distinctly unique too... and give the cabbage appetizer a try; i really like the sweet, sour and spicy taste of it. :)
