went to geylang with baby in the morning to have taste beancurd. though we have the map downloaded on baby's phone, we still unable to find the beancurd store.. we walked quite a distance.. ended up we asked the lady in the 7-11. she was super friendly. she was telling us there were 2 beancurd stores and the one oppostite is the 24-hrs beancurd store which is rather popular too. baby and i wanted to get the rochor's beancurd. and the lady also told us she prefered the rochor's beancurd. she even told us the history and which beancurd is more nicer...super friendly and nice!!!

actually we were just opposite the 24-hr popular beancurd store. therefore we decided to have a bowl of beancurd to try since we are also little hungry..


yong-he beancurd king




beancurd


toasted biscuit

the toasted biscuit quite nice... i should try to make it at home one day... very tempting.. while for the beancurd, it has some nuts on top of it.. but it isnt very soft and tender compared to rochor. nevertheless, it is still better than normal beancurd.. the price for thie beancurd is 1.60 per bowl. slightly more expansive too..

baby just ate like 4 mouths and he pass the remaining to me..:(

after that we continue to search our way to the rochor beancurd. we realised it was actually very near to the place that we first started... we went a big round.. and finally we managed to get our rochor's beancurd.. :)


rochor beancurd


i ordering the food





you tiao


crystal dumplings


cold soya bean milk


beancurd.

rochor's beancurd is much more smoother, tender and softer.. the taste really really nice... just take a look at its texture... the you-tiao was not bad. but me and baby were too full... thats was our lunch.. we wanted to go old airport road to have lunch, ended up, we were defeated by the milks and beancurds, and decided to have the beancurd as our lunch. :x

after tat we headed down to pasir ris park!!!!!!! to meet mama nature.


pasir ris park

it was still raining when we were walking to pasir ris park...zz.. and my umbrella went crazy on me... wanted to go bak to white sand to get an umbrella, but the rain stopped.. zzz... thanks the st peter for playing a trick on us...

it was scorching hot when after the rain.... but i couldnt get dark. baby was tanned or red... i can see his slipper's tan on his feet.. so funny and cute... wahhaha..


we headed to the mangrove inside...

we saw an indian guy catching water crabs.. interesting...








flowersssss


this small cute dog scare me..
he just chase after me to lick my little toe.. omg...so naughty...

oh.. and i am feeling young again!! my childhood memories.. though i am only 18! (eighteen) (shi-ba) i started to request to baby that i want to play in the playground. :P

pasir ris park changed quite alot... there is no longer a big space for u to picnic, most of the sands are covered with carpet grass now.. quite saddening.. man-made... a beach dun seem to be a beach le..:(

dinner went down to Bedok hawker centre..



katong- au jian ( fried oyster)

baby and i have the same liking, we only prefer the eggs and the flour not really the oyster. ;p


century eggs with pork porridge


cold desert


hot desert- barley ginko.

baby ate chay kway tew... (imagine the pic pls) someone too hungry and forgot to let me take a pic of his food le..

we were both exhausted towards the end of the day... with all the long hours of exploring pasir park and searching for the beancurd stores...

this entry will post the week of sinful indulgence that i had..

1.

Aston- located at kallang,
specialized mainly steak..


the mushroom soup is the only soup that they have.. and the soup is not the typical campbell soup but it is made with the freshest mushroom. the garlic bread is nice! crunchy!


hickory BBQ chicken.

the onion ring is nice.. i can taste the onions. and the baked potato is nice too.. it is soft and delicious. first time i ate the whole baked potato. the chicken was alright though. probably because without the sauce, the chicken tasted like satay chicken and i dun fancy satay.

legendary sirlion steak

didnt taste it.. but the french fries are delicious.. they have a special seasoning for it..

the prices of the food are reasonable. it is within a student's budget. oh, and Ashton is rather popular... so be sure to be queuing outside the restaurant esp if u are going with a group of friend.


2.

ichiban sushi

currently they are having a promotion for 5 bucks, u get to eat their meal from 3 to 5.30pm. the servings are small for that promotion but well, what can u expect for 5 bucks from a resturant.

mushroom



seafood

the food was alright only..should not have eat spaghetti when i enter into a jap restaurant though.

3.


5 star hainanese chicken rice - Katong.



chicken rice

half a white chicken- it is kampong chicken wor

sambal chili kang kong

the chicken rice was delicious.. i love the soup. i didnt take a pic of it.. but are chicken soups addictive? the chicken is tender and juicy.. nice!

4.

laska... Yishun

yea yishun has nice nice laska. the gravy is thick enough.... it is not like katong laska, its another kind of laksa where the gravy is much thicker.. it is located near yishun bus interchange.

beside it, it has a desert store which has a wide variety of hot and cold deserts. and the deserts are cheap. just to balance the spicy-ness of the laska, the cold desert will just remove the spicyness off...

ice jelly

ice kachang.



anyone wants the exact location of the food, just leave me a tag,comment. will get back asap!
