Babies, It's Lunch at Nam Nam Noodle Bar

There's finally a Vietnamese restaurant smacked right in the heart of Orchard Road.
 
We checked this casual restaurant Nam Nam Noodle Bar out with Selin, Tricia and their babies. :)
 
I'm liking the little details...:) and I like the menu! There's Banh Mi! Hoa got us hooked on these mean baguettes with awesome stuffing while we were in Ho Chi Minh.
 
The 5 spices pork belly & pork pate Banh Mi were delectable :D The combi fused together beautifully. We gave a thumbs up for the spring roll and peanut sauce too. :)
 
Pho is kind of a "staple" for us? Somehow when you enter a Vietnamese restaurant, Pho is like a no brainer choice. Beef or chicken? Doesn't matter. Both were fabulous. Le Le was a big fan of the flavourful broth.
 
There're alot more types of noodles Vietnam has to offer than just Pho. Lin and I also shared  a bowl of egg noodles with crackers which turned out to be like mee pok. :))) It came with shrimps and fish cakes too. The serving was a biggie.
 
Drink & regret... Vietnamese ice coffee...it's good but I suffered thereafter...I can't take coffee as it makes me nausea... *.* But I finished the whole cup nonetheless. :(
 
The ice tea's Tricia's.
 
We were not blown away by the dessert...I wish they had coconut ice cream on the menu...

Seoulfood with JY :)

 It's really rare we get to sit down for a meal with JY. Hence we were really happy for this fabulous opportunity to do so. It was a Seoulfood evening. ;)
 
JY loves Korean food. :)
 
Marinated beef & prawns
 
Ginseng chicken soup and seafood pancakes :)

Not much stomach space for the side dishes but...
 
there's always room for dessert! :D Mei Heung Yuen's ice chendol. ;)

Ice.....brrrrrrrrr :)

Ice. I love chewing on ice cubes. Bad for my teeth? Yes, I know. I'll do it still nonetheless. ;) Btw, I'm proud of my teeth. They are healthy and every dental check-up takes less than 10 mins. :D

It's a sunny Monday and I'm craving for more creative icy treats than just ice cubes/ice creams...

Let's imagine we are in Taipei now.... we can head down to Ice Monster or Taro King. :)
































Look at the generous amount of mangoes, strawberries & kiwis toppings! :D Just looking at it makes me happy!

There's Ice Monster in Singapore as well, but it pales in comparison. However if you are unable to resist the craving, details are as follow:
68 Orchard Road
#B2-52 Plaza Singapura

The other place we like to have our icy treats in Taipei is Taro King. :) This place was introduced to us by a gf, Elaine.





We have never tasted chilled taro before. This was amazingly good! :D

No exact address. But it's on the right side of Ice Monster (15 Yong Kang Street) under a staircase.
