My Weekend

I had a terrible night yesterday, didn't get to sleep as my little bb girl decided to play during the wee hours of the night. She kicked and rolled non stop and boxed me like the second hand of a clock. Also by getting out of bed to the toilet didn't help in my sleep and my dumb white ass dog kept barking at the gate!

Mummy is away to 广州 this morning on a mission to help her friend's son 提亲。This is the first time she travels alone without her family members by her side. Hope she enjoys her trip and by the time she gets back she is more street smart by the double.

Took mummy out on Saturday, a day of shopping and eating. We went mall hopped that day, from Parkway Parade to Paragon to Takashimaya to Central to Riverside and stopped last at Bedok 85 market for supper. That's the convenience of being in Singapore, it's small and very accessible.

We ate at Chen Fu Ji Chinese Restaurant located at Riverside Quay. Wanted to try their very famous Golden Imperial Fried Rice and see how good it really is.

Coincidentally 3 of us wore black that day.


八宝茶。It's nice and cooling, but I only found 5 items inside it, carrots, corn, sugar cane, water chestnut and asparagus. Where are the other 3 ingredients?

金碧辉煌炒饭。 Comes in 3 sizes, small $18, medium $25 and large $36. We ordered the medium one and it is exactly 3 small servings...

This bowl cost $8++ after dividing into 3. The taste, well it is good but not fantastic if you get what I mean. Food that is good will leave a strong craving for people to go back for the 2nd time but this one... not at all. Tried once and it is enough. According to TV recommendation, they claimed that a bowl of fried rice has exactly one full size crab meat. I seriously doubt it.

麻婆豆腐。
咖啡排骨王。Jeff was extremely disappointed with this dish as there was no real coffee taste at all. It was sweet!
宫保鸡丁。Very oily, not nice....
No wonder restaurant so quiet on a Saturday night. That night, the meal cost us $120++... just for those simple dishes. Do you think it is worth visiting the 2nd time? In the end we still have to go for supper as it didn't fill our stomach at all. We ended up eating hawker food at Bedok North.

Bought a new Coach bag for weekend use. Its the BLEECKER FLAP series.

Free gift from Coach. Nice packaging, thought what it was...

Just a key chain.

Sunday went to a friend's house warming function and proceed to more shopping at AMK Hub. Caught a movie there, STARDUST. I love the movie, it was very enchanting as it has witch crafts and magics. In this 2 hours movie you get romance, action, adventure, comedy, fantasy all in this movie.
Had our dinner at Soup Restaurant, we were the last customers that night, so paisey...


We ordered 2 person set dinner, cost $48+++ Menu includes:

Olive rice. I love it! The servings was big enough to fill up 6 bowls, and the texture of the rice is soft and spongy, leaves a nice fragrance in your mouth. Very unique!

Ginseng Chicken soup. Yummy, 够味，滋补养彦。

Their signature dish, Samsui Chicken. The ginger paste taste really good, not spicy at all. Chicken meat is tender and fresh, portion is big for 2, very filling!

Fried sambal kangkong.

姜丝炒鹿肉。
Fresh cabbage to wrap the samsui chicken, another method of eating. Very crunchy!

After service charge and GST the bill comes up to about close to $70. It is more worth it then Chen Fu Ji restaurant.
