pineapple tarts

Getting ready for Chinese New Year!

Homemade ones taste the best… or so my mother says

The finished products!

Bak chor mee (minced pork noodles)

Tai Hwa bak chor mee. I don’t like minced meat noodles, but the rest of my family does, and they claim this is the best!

roast chicken rice

It looks better than it tastes

Amoy Street Food Centre, Tanjong Pagar

Sakae Sushi

We eat here a lot because their prices are reasonable, and the food is decent.

Kakiage – fried veggies (turnips, etc)

Unagi sushi

Some roll

Chawanmushi — my sister loves it.. but I think it’s just so-so

Katsu curry don

Cha soba

Unagi tamago toji (unagi in a hotplate) — it was pretty good, but a little too sweet

Part of the teriyaki chicken & kushiyaki set — the kushiyaki

The other part of the set — the teriyaki chicken, obviously

Deluxe bento set

Changi Airport T2 outlet

crispy noodles with sliced fish & chwee kueh

Crispy noodles with sliced fish (“sang mein”, or 生面). I eat this all the time when I have meals at coffeeshops/hawker centres (this is from Kong Wai tze char, which serves up pretty decent tze char dishes)

Chwee Kueh. I ‘ve been eating from this stall — Jian Bo Shui Kueh — since I was a kid. It’s the best in Singapore!

Both stalls are located at Tiong Bahru Food Centre
