Buffet Lunch at The Line | Shangri-la Singapore

Our second buffet lunch was at The Line at Shangri-la hotel and since we took some photos whilst we were there, I might as well blog about it.  :)

I have been there before, years ago with my ex-colleagues and each time I leave this place so full I could roll my way home.  Thanks to my aunt's AMEX offer, we enjoyed a 50% discount for lunch that day which was so worth it.

Remember I said I skipped breakfast that day, and not only that, I went jogging that morning which you need to understand it was a proper milestone for me lol


Happy hubby's first stop: the Japanese station.

Local food

I looked a bit in a dilemma - which to eat first?

The Indian food counter

Chat counter

Satay

Dim sum station

Roast pork

Ain't nobody got space for bread

The sushi counter

Prawns

Salad?  Leave that for our meals back in the UK

By now we were stuffed and we soon realised we missed out this noodle station!  They had laksa and chicken noodles... but the stomach said no, can't do anymore if you want some tiny space for desserts

The cake station

Loved this

Oh gosh and this yes, pandan and durian... such a great pairing.
It was awesome.  The durian was full of flavour.. yums

Fruits?  Ain't nobody got space for fruits sorry.  Next..

Couldn't capture the gelato in one shot so I had to take two

Spoilt for choice!

Wanted to try some local nyonya desserts but alas... there wasn't any stomach space left

Give me green cake anytime

*burp*  Till next time, Singapore!

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'...

Memories made at Danson Park

I can't believe I still have readers to this dormant blog!  Thank you for coming back again :) In case you didn't know, our little family of four actually flew back to the UK together for the first time last November.  For me, I've been back twice with Izzy, and poor Gabriel kept asking when could he go back to London.  Finally K said we should take the trip together and also drive around northern France, our fav area to visit.  Well fav, in that it is very easy to get to from the UK and we have really grown to like the more rural parts of Brittany. I grabbed the chance to contact Joanne, who took some photos of the kids previously.  In fact I think she has seen my kids grow up, from taking Christmas photos to family photos. We were pressed for time and I had to do some convincing for K to agree to do this shoot... looking at the photos, glad i insisted on doing it.  More to document kids growing up well.. and us growing old  I plan to blog more about ...
