food desperados

After having angmoh food for the whole week, I was seriously craving for some Chinese food on Friday so I suggested going to Chinatown for a good dinner to end a tiring work week. So Yeelin brought me to this Taiwanese eatery in Leceister Square and as we both were similarly desperate hehe*plus really hungry* we were too ambitious and ordered way more than what we could eat. In the end we had to dabao food back home. Well, whatever that makes us happy lah :)

food galore -
1 bowl Taiwanese beef brisket noodles,
8 xiao long baos (we didn't know it comes in 8s!),
1 (huge) osyter egg omelette,
1 kong ba bao, Taiwanese style
2 soya bean milk

We were quite certain we were gonna roll home that night. heehee


To continue our string of Chinese dinners since Friday, I decided to finally cook another Prima Taste mix tonight. I still have so many in my cupboard!!


Might not look very appetising in the way it's presented but it was delicious nonetheless. Prima Taste mix can never go wrong!

Murder Mystery Dinner Party

Two Saturdays ago we were invited to the Kim's for a themed dinner, specifically a Murder Mystery dinner party.  What is that, you might ask.  It was our first time attending such a dinner too, and so how it works is: a group of people attend a dinner party.  Each is assigned a role and will be given a script to read that night.  The aim of the party is to identify a murderer in the midst of us by the end of the night.  The hosts would work off a dinner game set (they got it off Amazon) and it comes with proper invites, setting/ scene, table name cards, scripts and even a suggested menu.  Clearly RX is an Agatha Christie fan. Two weeks beforehand, we received our invites in the postbox, telling us what roles we each have been assigned and the suggested attire (and props if necessary).  Interesting yes? The dinner was to start at 7pm and we were to have 8 people that night.  It's all very mysterious… Our invitation cards assigned K the...

Cooking mee pok dry | bak chor and fishball noodles

When I touched down at Changi airport a few weeks ago, I was very hungry and K suggested grabbing a quick bite at the food court.  I immediately went for the queue at the bak chor (minced pork) noodles stall.  This one dish is very local and we simply can't find it here.  London's Chinatown has a few Malaysian restaurants with fried kway teow, chicken rice, laksa, etc but there is no authentic fishball noodles or minced pork noodles. When my friend Corinne shared this link last week, I was intrigued and I didn't know K was too.  He suggested going to the Asian supermarket on Sunday to get the necessary ingredients.  We found Dodo fishballs from Singapore here - what a win!  Unfortunately the mee pok (yellow, flat noodles) is of a darker shade here and tastes slightly different (maybe a different type of wheat?).  We found fishcakes too. http://delishar.com/2015/12/fishball-noodles-mee-pok-tah.html This is a healthier version of the hawker center'...
