Jim Bean Steak??

(1/8/08) Found this interesting steak sauce from my neighbourhood Cold Storage. It claims to be using Jim Beam Bourbon whiskey in the sauce.

Just wondering how it will taste like on a steak. Might just get drunk eating with the sauce.


(Updated - 30/11/08) Found another BBQ sauce in Cold Storage. This one uses Budweiser beer.

Lor Mee "War" in Tiong Bahru Market (卤面"大战")

I always been eating "Lor Mee" (卤面) from this 卤面 178 store in Tiong Bahru Market (food centre). Today, i decided to try the other famous Lor Mee store from the food centre.


This store, Tiong Bahru Lor Mee, is located at the end corner of the food centre. Long queue as usual. Selling at $2.5 and $3.


Both Lor Mee taste really good. But i will still prefer the 卤面 178 as they are more generous in their serving. They also comes with nice crispy deep fried shark meat. Try it.

E.R.P Rice anyone?

Found this ERP(Economic Rice Pricing) store in Ghim Moh Market (food centre). The Signboard was designed like a ERP gantry. Not sure whether this signboard capture any attention from the pubilc, but at least it caught mine.

I was at the food centre on a Saturday morning and the shop was closed. Wonder if the shop can survive in this competitive food centre.

Press the Doorbell to flush??

Saw this interesting toilet flush in a office building (located in the northern part of the conutry). It looks like a Doorbell switch. But it works well as a toilet flush.

You might hear a "Ding Dong" everytime you flush. :)

Curry Chicken for Dinner

My parents on vacation to Genting highland, so we decided to have a simple dinner at home. Rosa cook curry chicken and some beans sprout, while i fried some nuggets.

Even though a simple dinner, but an enjoyable one. :)

Nice food in Red Hill Market

When to Redhill market for lunch and found some famous/good food to recommend. There is this Fried carrot cake store, Fu Ming cooked food. We tasted their white carrot cake. The cake is nicely seasoned and very tasty.


Another famous food is the "Bak Kee Teochew Satay Bee Hon". You will always see a long queue in fornt of the store. The gravy is thick and tasty. If you wanna try it during weekend, it is likely to "sold out" before dinner.

There is a good fried oyster omelette (蚝煎) in the food centre but the store was not open today. Will attached the photo of the store when i visit them the next time.

Most expensive potato chips

Saw this new brand of potato chips "Tyrrell's potato chips" selling in my neighbourhood Cold Storage. Decided to give it a try. It was the most expensive potato chips i ever bought. It cost $6.50 for a 150 grams pack and claims to be produced in Herefordshire (UK).

The taste of the chips is abit unique and very crispy. But i think i will not try again with this price tag.

Art picture at Raffles City

Saw this interesting "giant" portrait on Raffles City, facing the Old Capital Cinema.

When you initially see it from the daylight, it looks colourfully and "lively". But when looking at the image through a red and blue filters, it will show the hidden images of sad and agony faces. Those faces reference the tragedy present in other parts of the world.

This art work is by a Spanish artist, Isaac Montoya, called "Fantasmas (Phantoms)".
