Eat, Eat, Eat!

I missed two weeks of cleaning due to my bad back and well, I was just plain lazy. So I just cannot wait to clean up the house on Saturday morning! I took a peek at my fishies before I started work. Check out our babies! The fishes had a sudden baby boom and Cobby and I were so happy. They are increadibly cute!



We also got some very pretty guppies! I love their colourful tails...



Ok, quickly got to work and cleaned up the house real good. Cobby was awoken by the vacumn cleaner. Well, he'll have to wake up then! Haha...



While I was cleaning, got Cobby to ta-pao some prata back for breakfast. So after cleaning, I took a nice shower and got out just in time to enjoy a yummy breakfast. So shiok! Now the chores are all done so we can enjoy our weekend in peace.

After awhile we set out to pick up our travel documents at Chan Brothers tour agency. It was such a beautiful sunny day, so I suggested to open the windows and breadth in some fresh warm air. Ahh... the sun feels so good on my arms.



Well, we didn't get the documents. I though our guy wanted us to go down and get them, apparently, he was actually saying that the documents are ready and was asking us if we were ready for the documents. If we were ready then he will go get the documents and he'll call us when the documents have arrived.

-_- duh right...

Just call me when you get the documents loh... Why did he need to ask us for permission to prepare the documents leh? Sigh... But anyway, we weren't really dishearten, because we have an uterior motive. Haha...

We walked pass the Hong Lim Food Centre yesterday on the way to dinner and a colleague mentioned that the Chicken Curry Noodles there is "...The Best Chicken Curry Noodle Ever!" Wah... bold claim. I've walked pass the stall before, I've seen the long queue, but THE BEST? This I gotta try. So we walked over to the hawker centre, which is just next to Chan Brothers (heehee) and joined the queue for our lunch.



The queue was so long! But when we finally got it I thought it was really worth it.



Well, it's more like Curry Noodles with chicken as they actually boil the chicken seperately. The chicken is super tender, the gravy is very tasty but not heavy! So we gobbled up the whole bowl in a matter of minutes. YUM! Please do go down and give it a try sometime. #01-127, Heng Kee Curry Chicken Mee, Hong Lim Food Centre.

Cobby spotted an old fashion pastry shop opposite the food centre, so we hopped over after we finished our noodles. Poh Guan Cake House is the type of old shop that specialise in making traditional chinese pastries and kuehs and makes everything fresh. Cobby and I love those chinese bean pastries (豆沙饼)and it's so hard to find shops that make really good ones anymore!! So naturally we bought a whole box when we found this rare gem. And then I saw it. Something that I was deprived of last night after dinner. Packed in little packages, screaming at me to buy them...

ONDE ONDE!!!!

I tell you. IT. WAS. SO. GOOD.

Real onde onde is filled with good quality gula melaka. Some people mix the gual melaka with coconut. I don't get it. What for?! Anyway, Poh Guan's Onde Onde was so heavenly. Tip on eating Onde Onde: Pop the whole thing into your mouth and feel the gula melaka squirt out inside your mouth when your teeth sink into the soft yummy kueh. GOD!!! The whole box was gone before the car left the carpark. Hahaha... Impossible to stop. I will be back for more. So happy to find such a great food centre! Yeah! Whoo Hoo!

Ahem.. excuse me. So anyway, we got home and I decided to give my seal a much needed bath. My poor seal that has always been hanging on my handphone was a little, erm, dirty. So into the bath he go!



Yeah! Time for tea! Finally got to try the pastry we bought earlier and just as expected, it was great. Flaky but not dry, the bean paste is just nice, not too sweet. Sigh, really good leh. Really, believe me. I'm very picky with my pastry. It's good.



Wah after the pastry we're so full! So dinner was a little late in the night. I keep thinking about Korean food the whole week! So in order not to make me go insane, we headed to Wisma Food Republic for my favourite Bi-bim-bab.





Wanted to buy a Canon Ixus digital camera after dinner, but shockingly, cannot find! On a side note - Best Denki at Takashimaya? Cannot make it. Enough said. So after walking around awhile, finally ended a very gastronomical day. Phew, tomorrow have to wake up VERY early. So better sleep early. ZZzzz...
