    Had a company event hosted there and we got this really gd deal from them. 55++ for a 3 course meal with a 1 for 1 beer / wine.

    the servings are really huge and i could barely finish it.

    First course - u can choose between House salad with balsamic dressing / soup of the day

    for the second course which is the main course. u can choose from the variety below

    fish & chips - beer battered white fish, served with fries and tartar sauce

    shepherds pie - lamb stew made with beer and smothered in cheddar mashed potatoes

    seafood spaghetti - brewerkz favorite with clams,prawns, mussels and squid in tomato sauce

    brewerkz bbq chicken - grilled 1/2 chicken with brewerkz bbq sauce. i took this and i could barely finish the chicken. only managed to finish the drumstick and i m stuffed already

  • of dinner date @ Kiseiki with bff

    this time we challenge ourselves to buffet for a change this time (to celebrate Hazyham's birthday) ! it was really fun, we had "tonnes" of sushimi to make the money worthwhile!

    the buffet for dinner is about 31 bucks which comes up to 74 bucks after the "++". the food is pretty much the same as lunch which i blogged before.

    =)

    the salmon sashimi and the clam meat ( we guess is abalone? lol)...is really fresh. we had many servings of such..even took the salmon belly too!

    is really good

    other food we took this time...double the worthwhile...lol

    ending the dinner with a nice desert

  • of little thoughts that brighten your day - lunch @ Crystal Jade

    was busy preparing for papers last weekend and LL came all the way to Holland V to accompany me for lunch and went back home after. he brought me to Crystal Jade for some Xiao long bao cos he say that i should eat some gd food lol..*sweet*. major loves.
    we din ordered much except Xiao long bao, Gou bu li bao, fried prawn roll, dao xiao mian and the spring onion la mian (my fav). 
     
    the Crystal Jade at Holland V is the shanghainese  crusine and their xiao long bao is really gd. love it..
     
    their gou bu li bao is something like cha sao bao..lol..which we dont find it special...
     
    prawn roll...as usual, anything deep fried is gd? lol. joking. i find it too oily.
     
    dao siao mian. you can choose the type of noodles to go with the type of soup or sauce...which i think is very different from other branches? so this is dao siao mian in cha jiang sauce...
     
    my spring onion la mian..the usual one...simple n nice
     
    doesnt need to shower with gifts to make you feel special. little tots that counts and actions that touches one person's heart. thanks Dear.

  • of bad & good dinning experience

    it all happened within the same day same meal some more!

    the more i think of it the more pissed i am. and i decided to pen it down so i will remember it for life! humph.

    first the bad experience. - Kia hiang

    as you can see this is the only picture i have cos i din managed to take any food pictures -> no FOOD!! now this is what happen. i met LL for lunch on friday and some cravings hit me and i wanted to eat their famous Cabbage wrapped chicken. LL then brought me there. as usual the place is damm bloody crowed and they asked if we are willing to share table. of cos, being angels, we shared table with 2 korean guys. knowing what we want to eat, we then ordered our dishes. so we wait...then we wait..and we waited...we waited for bloody 45 minutes and the food is not served! those people who arrived later than us already served with pipping hot food.

    we are just left with nothing except hunger! then we asked the waitress and they just simply tell us they will check. so we waited again. for bloody 10 minutes. and then they told us that they forgot!!! we saw food served at those tables who just arrived and those can be served to us first to calm us down but they did not!  fed up with their stupid excuses, we stood up and then leave without paying even for the drinks. i swear i will not go back there for lunch anymore..even my cravings kill me. WTF.

    so after the bad experience and we are so famished, LL brought me to eat Ramen..my cols will know that i just had ramen@play the day before..but bo bian..we are too hungry liao.

    so good experience - Shin Nichi

    us...

    they offered reasonable priced set lunches (about 20 bucks?) that comes with some starter, main dish and fruits. very filling lunch! then again, i prefer the ramen at marutama cos their soup base is better

    the starter

    my chicken karrage ramen

    LL's char siew ramen

  • Product Review : Cellilux - Glacial mask

    Cellilux - Glacial mask

    the "original" natural spa revitalising mask

    what it does

    • reduce the look of winkles
    • tighten pores
    • cleanse naturally
    • super hydrate your skin
    • revitalizes the appearance of skin
    • slow the signs of aging skin
    • remove dead skin cells
    • create soft and silky skin

    ingredients

    canadian colloidal clay (glacial clay), glacial mineral water, glycerine, acylate copolymer, euterpe oleracea (organic acai),fruit extract, camellia sinensis (organic green tea) leaf extract, lavandula augustifolia (lavender) oil, citrus aurantium dulcis (orange) fragrance, caprylyl glycol, lodopropynyl butylcrbarnate, phenoxyethanol

    direction

    apply generously to face, let it sit for 15-20 minutes and wash off. avoid contact with eyes

    usually i will do a scrub first before putting a mask cos it will clear the pores so that it will absorb better.

    it will take awhile for the mask to dry. when u first put the mask, you will feel the icy feeling ( some will describe it as the tinkling effect). the mask takes approximately 15-20 minutes to dry and u will feel some stiffness when it is dried. you just need to wash it off with warm water. becareful when you put on the mask and washing it as the mask may stain your clothes.

    before

    after

    my skin is shows sign of fairness after i wash off and the skin feels smoother. the blemish on my face subsided a little. overall the mask is gd for oily skin as it helps to do oil control. the pores also becomes smaller after using it a few times. overall i m a happy user of this mask except one little thing. the mask is very difficult to put on.

    interested?

    here goes another recommendation for dinner lol..short post for the day...

  • of little sweet efforts for quality time together at House of steamboat

    for the past few mths it is always very difficult for us to meet up during the weekdays cos LL is very busy with work, even during fridays we often meet up at late hours for dinner...but still we get to spend some solid good times together doing our favorite past time - EAT....

    rare occassion where we dress in same colors - this is not pre-arranged ok? lol. and the color is PINK..lol...

    i always wanted to try the steamboat at tan quee lan street ( opp bugis junction ) ..cos i always see them pack with people and the smell of the steamboat makes me drool everytime i pass by ( to go to school)..and heard their steamboat is very cheap so here we r, at House of steamboat.

    House of steam boat is actually a steamboat buffet which cost 20 bucks per pax. if you top up 2 bucks, you get to do BBQ too. they have free flow of drinks but of cos u need to pay for the canned ones.

    their BBQ is abit different from those i have at home and other steamboat house. they actually do BBQ on a piece of stone (like korea stone bbq). the variety of BBQ / steamboat is not as much but their sliced beef and pork is really gd ( much better than some restaurant ones). they are thinly sliced so u can BBQ or SABU it.

    as usual, they come with 2 type of soup ( think nowadays is quite standard la..). we took the tom yam and chicken soup. the tom yam is quite nice but LL feels it taste abit weird ...which i dont feel it this way

    i guess the most expensive food there is the prawns and their scallops lol..

    i tried cooking their noodles but i dont really like it ( i still prefer koka noodles in tom yam..just like JI GONG BAO - Chicken hotpot lol)

    so here u go, another place to hang out!

    PS : they open until quite late too so no need to worry if you going for late dinner. hehe

  • of Hatched Finally!

    it is ironic cos there is HATCHED at near my place and yet we din try it plus we heard alot of raves on HATCHED from blogs and friends. lol. so this sunday we woke up "early" to head there for brunch!

    According to the website www.hatched.sg , HATCHED's speciality is eggs. u can have eggs cooked in many ways like poached, scramble, sunny side up..etc. if you are a egg lover, you must visit them cos u will love their eggs!

    i love the deco in the cafe. is really retro for me and their menu is super cute! they also have innovative names for each dishes

    the price of the food is pretty reasonable and our total damage is 48.3 bucks inclusive of gst and service charge

    Latte - 5 bucks. i love their latte cos is not very sweet and is very rich

    sleep over - 12 bucks. french toast with bake banana and bacon. u put the maple syrup and it taste both sweet and salty. you may think that it taste weird but i tell u, it doesn't! the bacon and the sweetness from the banana + maple syrup blends in perfectly! yummy!

    Burly Benedict - 19 bucks. if you think 2 is alot, u can order 1 less which is i think about 12 bucks. the eggs is served on top of beef patty muffins. together with the roasted potatoes + salad, it makes a very filling meal. the poached eggs is well cooked. the egg white is cooked from the outside but not the yolk ( we love it this way too). Yummy

    so if you are a egg lover like us, do pop by at their cafe at holland V. btw, there are lots of gems in holland v too! will bring more to you next time!

  • of food hunt @ district 19 (Hougang Hainanese Market) part 2

    we are back again to district 19 for some yummy food. this time round, we tried the prawn noodles at the Hainanese Market.

    the stall states that it is the beach road prawn noodles la. maybe is a franchise? cos we had the same thing some where in Geylang too. lol. nevertheless, the noodles is as good. the soup is fantastic, you can taste the richness of the ingredients used.

    Together with pork lard (i know is unhealthy), the noodles taste heavenly.

    if you are near Hougang Ave 3, do pop by and try out the food at the area. You will be amazed with all the "gems"(yummy good food) u can find!
