Of Durians… and the Ah Bengs that cheat!

I am so unhappy okay! I got this irritating craving for Durian everyday now. Day 1 I went out of my way to buy a box of Durians. Mao Shan Wang they tell me. “Very good quality! Super bitter taste too! Since you buying only one box, you should buy the best”, exclaimed the Ah Beng. I kept quiet and kept looking at the $2 a box ones. I really just wanted to try some. Undeterred, the Ah Beng went…

My love of Dim Sum

Little buns and exquisite little dumplings excite me endlessly. Dim Sum. I feel like shouting over and over again that I love Dim Sum I love Dim Sum but I shall not bore you here (bold can already). I also got recommendation where to find yummy Dim Sum! I’m completely crazy about Dim Sum and will opt Dim Sum over any other meal any day! But only decent Dim Sum, I emphasize. Speaking of which, maybe I should just go Hong…

Mushrooms

Yes this post is about Mushrooms. That day I went with my mom and sis to have dinner, after a grueling day at the recent PC fair, at Outback Steakhouse (Millenia Walk). It’s an australian themed steakhouse with quite decent food and mid-range prices. Because there were 4 of us, we decided to order more to share! We just picked whatever we felt like and then by some LUCK, we ordered this amazing dish Bushman Shrooms – Mushrooms breaded and deep fried! …

Dinner @ Indulgz

I’ve been to Indulgz quite many times. It’s my favourite place to go to for no-fuss mid-range food for simple celebrations. =) This is what a friend and I had yesterday. The (in?)famous Fried Camembert Cheese with Berry Sauce. Well, I have never tried this before and I did hear a lot of good feedback about and I decided to give it a chance. $12 for 4 pieces – quite expensive! What I think? It’s salty, the crust is tasteless…

The Atkins Diet – Day 9

Yes my dear friends, I am still alive. I still have not consumed any obvious BAD carbohydrates like rice, noodle, cakes, bread of any sort. I am damn proud of myself. The first few days were TERRIBLE! I had bizarre cravings every second (I still do but more on that later). Pizza with cheese (No thank you to Pizza Hut commercials) at 9pm, Amoy Street Fried Rice at 4pm, Fried Bee Hoon at 10pm, Porridge at 11pm and erm, Muffins…

The Atkins Diet

Yup, I’ve been up to that lately. The 21st century diet fad. It’s bascially a very restrictive low-carb diet whereby one limits the intake of refined carbs and increase intake of proteins. Maximum carb intake in 1 day is 20gms!! Figure mean nothing to you? Well it soon will. Oh my goodness. I’m day 2 into it and I am already dying! Ok actually not Day 2, I started last week but I got it all wrong and consumed too…

Splurge Dinner @ Rome

6th May was my first day in Rome. After an amazing day of exploring the ruins that I’ve heard so much about, we were famished! Our first dinner in Rome, we walked about till we found something that looked good. I can’t remember the restaurant name but it’s just off Termini. Here’s what we had. Duckie had Lasagna. My god it was good but DAMN FILLING – that’s why I hate Lasagna. Hahaha! I know I am contradicting myself. The…
