Cheap & Good Sunday Breakfast - Chee Cheong Fun




























One of my fav Sunday breakfast yums is chee cheong fun. Unlike the Hong Kong's version where there're various stuffing such as shrimps, scallops & char siew, the Singapore's version is just plain rice roll drizzled with sweet sauce & sprinkled with sesame seeds. It's cheap (about 60-70 cents per roll), it's yummy & it's easily available at all hawker centres! :) I love the soft texture. I love the sweet sauce. I love the sesame seeds...

Monday Movie Nite

















Seriously, who would catch a movie on a Monday nite? Oh well, we did like many others! :O We didn't expect the crowd, forgetting it's the school holidays. :)))

Anyway Tina has a movie gift card which was expiring and so we made use of it to catch Michelle Chong's directorial debut, Already Famous. It starred herself & Alien Huang as her love interest. Already Famous is a simple but sweet story about a Kampong girl & her pursuit to realize her dream of becoming a TV star. Depsite some average review of the movie, we felt it's still better than other local Mandarin movies. Some Hokkien was used in the film but it's alright for non-speakers like us as there're English subtitles. :)

Lin said we need to support the works of women. ^.*




























I actually like the idea of catching a movie on a Monday nite. It gives us something to look foward to on an otherwise mundane & sometimes blue Monday. :) Hope you had an awesome Monday too! :)

Friday Nite Desserts at Mei Heong Yuen




























The Chendol Snow Ice at Mei Heong Yuen is one of my fav desserts. :) The ice is coconut flavoured, making it real yum and the gula melaka just enhanced the whole dessert... :) We love to drizzle our chendol snow ice with lots of gula melaka. Tina had all the red beans as Wendy, Lin & I aren't fans of it. :)

The other dessert we shared was Lin's fav mango pomelo sago. :) But I didn't touch it as I was busy enjoying my chendol snow ice. ;)




























A pic of us, happy with our sweet treats on a Friday nite. :)

Faith Turns 1! :)

















Koka was all excited to attend Faith's one year old b'day bash! She put on her new dress & got balloons ready for her Faith mei mei. :)

We bought Faith a Tigger fondant cake from Bonheur Pattiserie. Lin chose Tigger as Faith was borned in the year of the Tiger. ;)







































May we introduce Faith, the b'day gal. :)





















The children were thrilled by the cake. They were eyeing the helpless Tigger... :)))

















Blessed b'day to our dearest Faith. May she continue to grow in God's love.

Beanie's Mini B'day Celebration




























Beanie took a day off on his b'day and did things he enjoyed. He even bought his own b'day cake. :) Koka stole the show again. It felt more like her b'day than Beanie's! :D

The sponge cake layered with fresh cream and atop with fresh fruits was from Imperial Treasure Bakery. We had never try Imperial Tresaure Bakery's cakes prior to Beanie's b'day. Though there was nothing to shout about with regard to the design of the cake, every bite was actually pretty delightful. Perhaps, we didn't have any expectation? :))) The sponge cake was light & fluffy. If one is looking for a simple cake, this might be the one.

Day 7: Blah Blah Last Dinner in Seoul




























Beanie suggested we try Korea's popular fast food chain, Lotteria for our last dinner in Seoul. Verdict: Average.

I wished the food tasted as good as they looked. Something is just missing.

One thing for sure, the serving size is huge; making the meal value for your money if taste to you is secondary. ;)

Close shot of our order:

Hanwoo Bulgogi Burger, half bulgogi & half shrimp burger and fried chicken















Hanwoo Ladies Burger (the burger was soggy)





















Shrimp burger (in Tina's words: "Didn't even tasted the shrimp...") *.*





















Fries (the size of the fries is between that of McDonald's & Mos Burger)




























Cheese sticks





















Corn





















Us with our food...















We didn't finish our dinner...

Other than this dinner, our autumn in Seoul was an awesome one! :)

We've already planned for our next trip in Mar! Tina, Ann, Lin & I are so looking forward to it! :D Canola flowers here we come! :)))
