Went to the Taiwan Food Fair @ Clarke Quay The Central ytd.... Went there for dinner.. wanted to try some Taiwan Specialty... About 15 stores there....
Ordered the Orh-jian (Taiwanese Oyster Omelette)... its the one with the longest queue... but kinda disappointing though.
Its a lot different from Singapore's Orh-luak... which is Teochew Style .... Theirs is hokkien style.... with lots of muahchi sticky paste.... eggs... oysters.... beanspourts.. vegetables... with a salty sauce...
Overall I prefer Singapore's version... LOL.... Anyway... it wasnt worth $6... the portion was too small (as seen in pic)... And I think the taste doesnt really tally with the one in Taiwan....
Also tried the Durian-Mango Ice.... i tink it is quite good.. the ice.. and the mango/durian paste.. a combo dessert.... but $5 is quite expensive.. lol....
Also tried their Meatball Tzu.... Er... You can see it .... I have posted it... but basically its filled with sticky sticky gluey like substance.. with not much of meat inside.... the salty braised sauce... with some "san-chen-rou"... I think this is the most worth it must try when u go there bah.... its quite nice and unique... though there wasnt much meat inside... $5 for this dish....
Tried their camollie tea. i tink overall the drink was nice... refreshing.... at the bubble milk tea store.... overall spent $20 for 5 items...
Perhaps you can try it.... but pls plan before you eat... lol.... their coupons are worth $10... so if you happen to spend $11 like me.. you gotta buy one more $10 coupon.... $6 (orh-jian) + $5 (meatball Tzu) + $5 mango durian snowshake + $2 camollie tea + $2 (Pork dumpling 1 piece) = $20
Walked through the decorated lanterns along the heart of Singapore River.... okay... overall there is some ambience of the upcoming mid-autumn festival...
Had a $10 voucher for New York New York... so went in for a lunch alone at Lot 1.... Ordered a $9.80 Sweet and Sour Thai Chicken Rice Set... and ordered an ala-carte Banana Pancake Ice Cream...
The Sweet & Sour Thai Chicken Rice set ok only... for $9.80 i wun order it next time again... lol.... as for the ala-carte banana pancake at $6.80 i might consider eating again... the banana cake was nice... toppled with ice cream....
Overall I paid $9.66 for the meal after $10 voucher... so it wasnt really cheap... got a shock of my life when i got the bill.. expected $5 - $6.. forget there is one thing called 10% service charge and 7% GST.
As for job applications... I am getting sick already... Applied for so many jobs... but everything seems so silent... my handphone record broke its record for the first time.. Total Received 50 minutes... Total Dialled 70 minutes... Total SMS sent: 80.... -_-" Lowered my expectations in the latest walk in interview for Popular job on Saturday... asking salary was $1800-$2000, down $400 from $2200-$2400.
Popular tells me they will get back to me by end of this week.... I hope they do. Positive please.. =)
