    Visit my website @ http://shirleylye12.wix.com/princessmic

    I seldom blog about vegetarian food as i dont really eat vegetarian food unless is with my family and happen to be a 1st or 15th of the month ( my mum usually eat vegetarian for the whole day). we used to patron the ze char stall at Circuit Rd market until they close the whole market for renovation la. then we started to search for alternatives. so this is one of the stall which i find their food is pretty nice and reasonably priced.

    there is a signboard that clearly states their menu –  what they have and the price of each dish. you find similar dishes to those non vegetarian ones.

    we tried their following dishes which i find it quite nice despite is vegetarian cooked in normal ze char way lol.

    hor fun – generous with their vegetarian ingredients ( vegetarian ingredients are quite expensive as they need alot of effort to make). hor fun is not soggy and their vegetarian sotong taste abit like “real” one too.

    Hokkien mee. i m not a yellow mee person as i hate the taste of it but i quite like this one actually.

    xin zou bee hoon. i always like to eat fried beehoon. their beehoon has this QQ taste. i love it. except they did not make the bee hoon shorter.

    fried tapioca leaves with fermented bean curb. yums. my fav. the vege is not very “old” ( of cos this is not a very good way to measure how good the dish is..cos it really depends the vege’s condition that day). i mean the vege is not overcooked lol. anyway. this dish is really for sharing cos i feel every meal, we need to have at least 1 vege..healthy lifestyle lol

    overall the food is nice and not really expensive. for the above, total damage is 28 bucks. will i come again? definitely to try out other dishes on the vegetarian day. now we got another choice for vegetarian food!

  • of Danro good times at NEX !

    Visit my website @ http://shirleylye12.wix.com/princessmic

    Finally, we got a chance to try out something new this weekend despite we are busy with our house. we went for a good dinner after our site visit! I heard much raves about Danro from bloggers and so here we are ~ our first time @ Danro!

    Danro is a japanese shabu steamboat buffet, the difference between Danro and other japanese steamboat is their large variety of soup. this time, we took their nanbe (chicken bone with milk soup) and their chicken miso soup. They serve free flow of drinks, seafood,veges , beef, chicken and pork. they also serve some cooked food and ice cream too!

    difference between i take picture and LL take picture is..i ensure his photo is clear..n his? i look blur……-_-”

    the steamboat bowl has 2 side ( similar to those ma la hot pot we have) that allows u to have 2 different soup base. the soup is refillable and u can just pick up the soup container at the soup kiosk

    the cooked food kiosk that serve fried rice, salmon chips, fried meat balls and pork ribs!

    seafood they served ~ Scallops, flower crab, Lala (shell fish), salmon paste

    sushi @ sushi bar

    Veges and onsen egg ( i love it…)

    thinly sliced pork n beef for shabu

    they also hav large variety of sauce to go with! our fav peanut and black pepper sauce!

    last but not least, whats better to end the last day of the meal with ? Japanese ice cream! i love the mango syrup with corn flakes!

    Verdict :

    Food : *** ( we love the nanbe soup base better than the miso one. LL feels that their nanbe one is better than nanbejin @ plaza sing while i beg to differ lol but both is as good)

    Price : *** ( consider quite reasonable priced as cost about 30 bucks per pax on a wkend dinner)

    Customer service : ***

    Will i come again? Sure! cos i cant wait to try out other soup base!
  • of busy wkend ( late post) updates plus brunch @ Hainanese Market

    Visit my website @ http://shirleylye12.wix.com/princessmic

    Super busy lately with my own personal life n i did not have time to explore new food hunts =(. and those place i went for my dinner and lunch will probably bored u to death! yea. i m a boring person when comes to a busy schedule.

    in case you are wondering why i am super busy, so here is some quick updates la. ok.
    .
    .
    .
    .
     i m busy with my house lol!!! exciting for me. cos have been waiting for it for so long and i keep going to the construction site to peep at the progress. from a construction site to a site where the houses are more or less ready! so we went shopping for our electrical appliances over the wkend lo.

    anyway, we went to Hainanese Market for brunch on Sun cos LL misses the prawn noodles there! This time round i tried the fried carrot cake there and it is really good! super soft and filled with alot of eggs ( super love).

    milo korsong peng + tehsi peng

    prawn noodles. he loves his yellow noodles which i dread it lol. i hate the taste of yellow noodles. dont ask me y. just hate it. usually if i wan prawn noodles, i will hav it in bee hoon soup lol

    next is the fried carrot cake i am talking about! look at the amount of eggs covering the carrot cake! yumz!
    ya. so this is the only newest find over the weekend =(. last but not least shall photobomb this post with my Faith’s pictures lol. she is growing up fast!
  • of we are back! Majestic Restaurant

    Visit my website @ http://shirleylye12.wix.com/princessmic

    This time round, i brought my parents there for dinner! i miss their claypot chicken rice and their speciality chilli sauce!

    We did ordered a few dishes that is repeated (peking duck, claypot chicken rice and garlic toufu cos are my fav mah.) and a new dish too. Shall not bored you with the repeated ones. So i just intro the new dish.

    tah tah tah dahhhhhh..Mei Cai with Kai lan. I thought this dish is quite interesting. i always have Mei Cai with pork belly but with Kai lan? this is something new. The unique taste from Mei Cai can blend perfectly with Kai lan. The Mei cai doesnt taste like those usual ones, it is those sweet type and the kai lan is stirred fried. so the two different taste give a brand new taste to this dish! i love it!

    hehe. hope you like this new dish too if you dine at Majestic restaurant!

    Next, is my OOTD. I just found another new website that sell very nice clothes and bags (other than my usual ones like lovebonito, klarra and thevelvetdolls). this website is call LoveMi, they actually have a existing shop 14 Keong Saik Road too!

    I love this black dress that makes me look super slim and pretty!

    Next is the Satchel bag! it comes in different colors! Pink, blue, classic brown..etc. This one is 2 tone that comes in Black with purple! love it!

    the design of the bag is super trendy that i can match it even for casual wear on weekends! oppa gandam style! lol. just a top with shorts! so get yours too @lovemi.com!

  • of simple dinner @ Crystal Jade ~ Holland V

    Visit my website @ http://shirleylye12.wix.com/princessmic

    Simple dinner together with family is always the best moments i have every weekend and i am glad that LL made an effort to dine with my parents even though he is very busy with work. Usually he will do a quick dinner before heading back home to work from home. To allow him to go home earlier to his work, we usually dine somewhere near my place. So we settled down for Crystal Jade last Sun.

    A few simple hearty dishes that marks the end of my weekend and now is the beginning of the new one.

    Food: ***
    Price : ***1/2
    Customer Service : ***

    Xue Cai ( snow vege it called? nt very sure but it seems that we cant buy this vege in the market. so far, i only managed to eat it in restaurants like Crystal Jade. something like preserved vege aka mei cai but it is fresh.) with  mushrooms and glutten. the glutten is made of bean curb skin and i love it

    Sweet and sour pork again. haha. but this time is restaurant standard.

    due to the recent haze and my mum is not feeling that well, LL ordered ginseng soup for every of us! yum. some restaurants will use the normal chicken instead of the black one. personally, i prefer to use black chicken for boiled herbal soup as it is more nutritious and taste better. The chicken is well cooked as the meat is super tender. 

    Next is the salted fish with toufu and minced chicken meat! i love this dish alot! goes very well with rice! the toufu is super soft even after deep fried. the chicken meat is also very smooth and tender!

    verdict : I will definitely return for more and will order the salt fish dish again! yumz!

    Located at a corner of Blk 721 Clementi West St 2, the big signboard that is next to the entrance to the carpark you can hardly missed. This is the favorite zi char location we used to patronize when i was studying in uni. My daddy will drive us there for dinner over the weekends and now it is our turn to drive daddy and mummy there for dinner =) .

    the food still taste very much the same as before. They are very famous for their fish soup with XO too. I prefer theirs over the Holland V one as theirs is less bitter in taste ( maybe the wine that they add is not as much..lol)

    this time round we order some other dishes.It happen that my mama is on vegetarian diet and they make an exception to cook hor fun with veges only. lol. and this simple gesture makes my mama super happy lol. cos the usual vegetarian stall in the market is closed.so she is very happy with her hor fun

    for us, we are more heckcareless over religion diet lol. especially for me. muahaha. anyway, we ordered tapioca leaves with fermented bean curb. this is my fav dish especially if i sense myself getting a sore throat soon and still have cravings for tapioca leaves lol. the vege is not overcooked and doesnt taste that old which is very much to my liking. =P

    next is seaweed soup. this soup comes a little blend to me. but i m super happy with the amount of seaweed they put inside lol. m a fanatic when comes to seaweed, i can eat them cooked or even those like titbits all day long.

    sweet and sour pork. usually is the dish that i sentence the stall to “live” or “die”. fortunately, they managed to “live” but if i compare it with the one at my place, they will “die” lol. cos i taste more flour than the meat itself.

    last but not least, their homemade toufu with cereal. this dish is quite new to me. i quite like their toufu. it is mixed with fish paste and deep fried. it taste alittle similar to cereal prawn except the prawn is replaced with toufu. overall this dish is quite appealing to me and i will order it again.

    will i return for more? Yes of cos! never forget this zi char place that accompany me all these while!

    Lin Yuan Satay. the satay meat is not too dry as compared to others.

    Chan BBQ. a little too spicy for me but i love it haha.the sotong is not overcooked so it doesnt taste like rubber. The sting ray is quite good too.

    cereal fried rice. never thought cereal and fried rice can taste so good together. is like bff. lol.

    stirred fried season bean with salted egg. this is my favorite dish! yum. the salted egg is coated evenly on each bean. if you are a salted egg lover, you will definitely love this too!

     This Zi Char coffeeshop is located at one corner of 1036 Sembawang road. The place is alittle dark at the carpark area ( offers free parking) but is brightly lilted at the coffee shop area.Overall the food is quite nice and reasonably price.

    Food : ** 1/2
    Price : **1/2
    Customer service : ** ( the waitress just dump the menu at us rudely and when we ask her to take our orders, she simply ignore us. )

    we ordered a few dishes and maybe it is not their signature dish. and we weren’t told which are their signature dish due to their bad customer service ma. refused to even talk more le.so we just ordered what we like

    Hotplate toufu.this dish is quite ok. generous with the ingredients and not too salty. but i feel the dish is abit not “hot” when served.

    Fish Maw soup. we love this. also, very generous with the amount of fish maw. the soup is not too thick unlike some.

    stirred fried beans. not too bad except the beans is super long and makes it difficult to eat

    butter pork ribs. strangely i dont find any bones in any piece of the meat. the meat is a little too tough for me and too “jer lat” (over cloying) for my liking. but if you take 1 or 2 piece is still ok.

  • of dinner @ Majestic Restaurant and our new family member ~ Faith

    Visit my website @ http://shirleylye12.wix.com/princessmic

    Dinner @ Majestic Restaurant.
    This is my first time to Majestic Restaurant @ New Majestic Hotel. Heard much raves from LL on their super delicious set lunch and they really make me drool lol.

    Majestic Restaurant is the award winning restaurant that features Cantonese cuisine by the internationally renowned award winning chef Yong Bing Ngen. they served set meal for dinner at 68 bucks to 88 bucks ( per pax) or ala carte dishes for approx 10-20 bucks per dish.

    For our dinner this time, we ordered some of their dishes from their ala carte menu. and they are super good!

    Overall
    Price : *** ( for 6 pax, we spend approx 400 bucks including tax)
    Food : ***1/2
    Customer service : ***

    Will i come again? Yes! and i will be back for more of their famous signature dishes!

    Their Peking Duck. the skin is very crispy and i love their peking duck sauce! I discovered a new taste too, it taste superb with their chicken rice chilli sauce! love it! i love their chilli sauce!

    we asked them to stir-fry the rest of the duck meat and eat it as a lettuce wrap dish

    chicken soup is very refreshing for us.

    homemade toufu is very smooth and soft. I love it but its a pity that the toufu sauce taste a little bland.

    Kurobuta pork chop! i love this dish! the pork is a little fatty though but overall this dish is really good!

    claypot chicken rice. I m so in love with this dish! their chicken rice is cooked in the claypot as in those hainanese chicken rice type! their chilli taste super gd with the chicken rice! i love it love it love it!

    ending our dinner with their durian desert! i was kinda disappointed with their mao shan wang durian with gula melaka cos it is freaking expensive and it is just purely durian meat. 10 bucks for 1 scoop ( super small scoop) =(

    i think a much worth will be their deep fried durian ice cream lol

    Our new family member
