We feel lonely, sometimes to the point of tears, but we don’t let those tears come because we are not supposed to cry. Or how we feel a surge of love for a partner but we don’t say anything because we’re frozen with the fear of what those words might do to the relationship.
-Mitch Albom
Wen Dao Shi!! I've always wanted to go there after seeing so many people post pix on it on fb and having passed by it numerous times and its always so crowded!
the all of ur were ravenous and ordered like there is no tomorrow. Pi Dan Chou. The century egg porridge is actually very normal, not comparable to hotel standards or wot, but I <3<3<3 the generous serving of century egg! they are my fave!
honey lemon tea & barley in the unconventional serving containers. the honey lemon tea even had jelly pieces in them.
This is us and some of the food we ordered! =) The chee cheong fun is unconventional too, its nt the sweet soya sauce kind tt i <3 and its also nt the sweet soya sauce, the sauce is like peanut sauce colour.
sinful melt in ur mouth dong bo rou!
Overall the food is not fantastic but its definitely a good choice for a cheap and conforting midnight snack! they open 24hrs! Simple fare, standard is simlar to red star restaurant in chinatown i would say.
Durian for dessert!
Our lovely couchsurfer from germany currently residing in tw who loves durian and smelly tofu!
are you sick of yong he yet? cos i am. i think i visit them at least once a mth! if they have those gold membership card or wot, they shld so offer me one. o wells, there werent much yummy food in sight, we walked by shops and shops selling Chinese food full of PRCs! I dared not really venture into those shop as i dunno wot to order and their food seemed really oily! so moving forward to what we ordered.
xlb. the worst xlb you can ever get. there is totally no soup in the xlb. bah. do not order this next time.
you tiao my fave not for dipping into the soybean drink but to dip into my mee sua!!! i'm weird i noe. who dips you tiao into mee sua, but i tried it once and liked it ever since haha. the texture is somewhat like having you tiao in congee yummy!
of cos a must order for me whenever i am there. i dont eat those innards tho. so its gr8 tt p is there to slurp all the innards up! haha. yums yums
onion pancake. ordered this for the first time. taste like chinese verson of roti prata. i dipped this into the mee sua too. o haha.
lu rou fan. gt to try this finally cos we always reach there after midnight and they only serve this dish up to 11pm. p ate most of it and didnt find it fantastic.
so it made me wonder, yong he dou hua is juz so-so except for their mee sua + soy bean, how did they manage to attact ppl go go back and again?
prawning escapades yet again! i'm nt a sadist who love to hook crustaceans by their lips but prawning is indeed a good activity to do in large groups! So this is the 2nd new prawning place i've been to in a wk! It had been reported in the straits times previously. The old badminton hall in Geylany has now been converted into an indoor prawning area!
The name of the place! There are quite a number of people having cze char food there so i guess the food must be not bad! =)
us checking out the prawning rates! Chiewlin you should totally come here for your bdae! =)) I guess the rates are reasonable so nic+gillian and us juz opted for 1 hr cos when we reached there, it was in between timing, if we were to prawn for too long, we would have been mad hungry.
array of rods! The rods provided are the cheapo rods, but any rod that catches prawn is a good rod ya?=)
within the first 10mins of having our rod in, i caught a prawn, i was super excited cos as u now i'm nt very proficient in prawning, i tend to scare the prawn away in my eagerness to hook them up, so i totally swing the rod with the prawn's mouth still attached to the hook violently backwards juz like how you see people fight with the fishes when fishing. p was totally embrassed by my over reaction but he still helped me unhook the prawn anyway. i almost hurt this little girl near me with my swinging of the rod. omg! anyway, the prawn is awfully small, but our hopes are high cos it is good omen =)
but alas, our lady luck was nt on our side, the prawns were too smart to attach our baits anymore but this dude opposite us were like unhooking prawns every 5 mins or so, which made us resigned tt he is prawning all the prawns in the pond ||-_- These prawns cost $10 each!
This prawning place provides BBQ pit if you wanna have real fresh prawns, and they even have salt and satay stick for you! =) since our catch was so pathetic, we gave away the miserable looking prawns to this grandpa who ended his prawning ard the same time as us =) imo, the prawning near my hse is still the best!
