Episode 506 - Singapore Food Galore : Day 2, 3 & 4

And then Day 2 in Singapore came along... Another great foodie experience. My friends and I walked all the way from somewhere at Orchard Street and to Paragon to their food court and had breakfast at this restaurant called Tin Dai Fung. We had steamed Yam dumplings, Beef Noodle Soup and the Egg & prawn fried rice. Superb! However, we got separated during lunch onwards and had late tea at ION's food court. There we tried the barbecued Chicken Wings, Kueh Pai Ti, Char Kueh Tiaw with beef and Oyster fried Omellette. I must say that the wings were just Ok-la (convinced by the super friendly Chef that they were really good) but the Fried Kueh Tiaw was really good and the Omellette was not too bad. The Kueh Pai Tis were great. It's actually cooked shredded turnip placed in little deep fried baskets, adorned with bits of egg prawn and sweet sauce. Best thing about all the food courts were that they have open kitchens thus watching them cook your meal is just a great experience!

Dinner was just assorted buns from a bakery at ION enjoyed at the sidewalk of Orchard road! As the night descended, we strolled along the walkways of Clark Quay. My friends had the chance to enjoy the very cool and highly anticipated Bread Icecream! I didn't try it as I was having sorethroat. Sighs but I totally loved the way the Uncle made those icecreams. So full of passion and commitment!

Braised Hard boiled Egg

Came across this at some sort of a Seven Eleven Store, Braised Chicken Egg, Vacuum Packed! - Very interesting as I've never seen this before and it costs S$0.90 each which you can have with your cup Noodles - heard it is actually tasty! I was skeptical to try it but kind of regret now.

Day 3 was just with babe LY. We went to Heeran to catch lunch at Waruka Restaurant. It's a Japanese Restaurant. No comparison with our Excapade Sushi in Brunei. The food weren't that bad and the portions were pretty much alright. I do like the set lunches and those tit bits of side orders you can have with your main dish with a special fixed price. And then came dinner time at Jumbo Seafood Restaurant, Clark Quay. Best Chilli Crab ever! Served with sweet savoury buns called Man Tou. We had several main dishes including Deep fried egg tofu with creamy Mushroomy Sauce, Stir Fried Baby Kai Lan and Egg Fried rice. The hunger kind of made everything so much more than it looked. Definitely a must-try when you go to Clark Quay.

Duck & Mango Salad

The last day was more of a tit bits testing, literally from Bugis Street to just any place with interesting food we can get our hands on. We had Beard Papa's Cream Puff. Darn creamy and yummy for sure. We had those soft skin (Mochi) ice cream which were in so many flavours it was hard to choose and that they packed it in such a way that it only melts after an hour! We also had Satay with all sorts of meat. But we did catch lunch at Jumbo again. This time I tried the Mango and Duck Salad. One word - SUPERFABTASTIC!

Beard Papa's Cream Puff - Coming soon in Brunei (hopefully)

That is therefore my food conquest in Singapore. I'd defnitely go back there soon to explore some places I didn't get to go and try the many types of food available! Alright, enjoy the pics and see you in the next post >0,<
