I realised for the last couple of entries. I have been talking about FOOD.
Another entry dominated by my food over-ruled brain.
Foodie trail 1:
Tried the Mahantten Fish Market's seafood platter with the BF and a pal. In comparison to Fish n Co's the former paled in terms of taste (the rice was soggish) and portions (small prawns!). The only saving grace was the melt-in-your-mouth grilled fish. For $33.90, you are better of just ordering their signature fish dishes. Though I am less than impressed with the seafood platter, I will be going there again to savour the grilled fish mains.
Top with another $4.90 for soup-of-the-day and a glass (very big) of drink (ice tea, fizzy drinks).
Foodie Trail 2:
Aston's Express grilled fish with herb. Delicous. My second serving in less than a week. The mother tried the breaded fish. Bigger portion than its grilled counterpart (maybe coz of the breaded crumbs?!) and very crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Both thumbs up! Fish lovers should swim there like now now!
Foodie Trail 3:
Crystal Jade La Mian Xiao Long Bao - Ngee Ann City outlet
I discovered tucking into dinner around the timing of 5 to 6pm is perfecto. No crowds = no snaking queues. I get to choose my preferred table coz the eatery is less than half filled and the overall atmosphere is just so much more relaxing.
Fave dishes whilst dining there - Si chuan ma po tou fu, gu lu rou and xiao long bao.
Yums! This week's food trail hit the spot totally.
