Dinner at 新马田鸡粥

This is a belated post. Been too busy these few days to sit down and blog, but Blamer kept on kpkb so I had burn my Sunday nite to blog this, ke ke ke...

We went out for dinner last Saturday since Xiufeng and bro 难得 got weekend leave. I remember I came to 新马田鸡粥 once and thought it was just a corner shop. However, according to Dennis, the G7 seafood shop opposite the 新马田鸡粥 belongs to the same boss.


Because it is more spacious over at the seafood store, we decided to sit there instead. Bro is the 地头蛇 here so we let him do all the ordering.

While waiting for our food which actually took quite long. We decided to fully utilize Dent Dent.

Fish tank containing all the seafood.


Blamer who can't decide whether to tie her hair or not.

My Bro and Xiufeng

Finally me and Blamer. Excuse me for being a bit chui... : )

This is their 招牌豆腐。

Quite normal 蚝蛋,the sauce is better den those in Taiwan though.

This is four season beans. Apparently it is Xiufeng's favorite.

Ha ha pui ti pak, Blamer's fav, make me wonder everytime how can she remain so thin when this is her fav food.

See so happy to bite into her pui ti pak.


Finally the 主角 of the night arrived, porridge and the frogs,


We ordered the spicy and non-spicy version and one large pot of porridge. Really not bad leh the 主角, we finished both pots of porridge in a jiffy but was too full to order more although our taste buds were craving for more. This is wat I call 有心无力。

Happy 26th Bdae to Leecher

1st March marks the day whereby I burnt a SUPER BIG hole in my pocket, cuz its Leecher's bdae.
Firstly, I decided to present him with a bouquet of flowers which I made myself, since he is always complaining that he never receive any flowers before. Being the practical me, of cuz I will not waste my money on a real bouquet of flowers on him - since I gathered that he will just throw the flowers away after they died - haha. So, as substitutes, I used Ferrero Rocher chocolates instead, heehee. (thanks Cheryl for the idea!)

Here's the ingredients for the "flowers"

Initially wanted to make 26 stalks of "flowers", but I think that it will be quite difficult to tie the wooden chopsticks together, so decided on 11 stalks instead - to represent 1 sheng 1 shi .... :)

The finished product - though there's still room for improvement, but it's a not bad result for my first attempt (trying to comfort myself here a bit ....)

Secondly, I decided to give Leecher his real bdae present (which seriously burnt a hole in my pocket, but what to do ...) by starting a car fund for him, cuz I know he is looking to buy a car ... Inside contains a cheque with $X amount of money to begin with ....

Thirdly, I got him a bdae cake. Initally wanted to buy either a Doraemon cake or a sports car cake for him, but the cakes were full of cream (sucks). Decided to go healthy and bought the mango cake, haha....

We headed to Chang Korean BBQ restaurant for his bdae dinner. Silly Leecher actually thought that I was going to bring him to Shangri-La for dinner. He kept lamenting that his bdae dinner will be very cheap, since I will be using vouchers to pay for the meal. Plus, he didn't even go and find out how to get to Shangri-La hotel (see, evidence of him leeching on me again), thus, it didn't strike him that we're going to Dempsey Road until we alighted at the bus stop.

Leecher seriously studying the menu and thinking: should I order the most expensive item on the menu?

Cam-whoring while waiting for the food to come ~ it's a pretty nice place and it was my first visit there ....

Sipping tea ... the tea is pretty not bad, had a slight taste of barley...

Finally, our table full of food, the side dishes only and its refillable at zero cost! Yummy ~

Leecher's mouth is watering ... he can't wait to start ....

Steam-pork belly which we couldn't finish and need to pack back.

Plate of Wagyu (Beef) : before it was cooked

After it's cooked and ready to eat ~ ATTACK!

Putting the meat onto the vegetables ...

That's the table full of food ... (some of the side dishes are not in the pic, due to space constraints)

Cam-whoring outside the restaurant. It's getting dark and the cars are arriving

After the meal, we decided to visit Ben&Jerry for some ice-cream ... Pretty nice place, but FULL of kids running around....gosh....

Ordered Rasberry + Strawberry Kiwi + New York Super Fudge Chunk topped with M&M chocolates

There's a little bus outside the shop where the kids are all gathered around, had a hard time taking the pics .... shouldn't have gone there on a wkend...

Since Leecher is still building his car fund, we had to take a bus to go back to the station ...

Back at his place for the cake-cutting ceremony :)

And lastly, Leecher with his Darling (ME!)

Happy Birthday to you! Hope you like all your presents!

Dai Lu Mao

I wonder if any of u manage to catch the Dai Lu Mao post earlier on b4 Blamer took it down. Actually right after she posted the V-day preparation post, I added this Dai Lu Mao post and she was so defensive abt it and took down the post b4 I could stop her. (For hint of the Dai Lu Mao, please pay attention to the last sentence of the post.)

However, last week, she officially put on the green hat for me.
