Urchin...

Saw a tv show on seafood...& the host was trying fresh sea urchin sashimi..

This reminded me of the time when CSS & I were having dinner.....

Facing the slab of sea urchin we had ordered, he said.... he dun wanna taste urine... cos sea urchin sashimi tasted like urine....

stuffed..!!!

although the little key holder was not fully filled last night, we the people are all fully FILLED..!!!

BLURP..!!!

haha i love warzones..!!

nothing was left at all...... from the satay..... the wantan mee...... the fried oysters..... the frog porridge......... not forgetting the supersweetened grass jelly drink...

safe food?

u want safe food?

then only guarantee is to cook the food yourself..........

when you have food outside, there's no certainty........

just hope for the best...

an old favourite....

ever since the old favourite store re-opened, i have yet to try the fried hokkien prawn mee aka sotong mee, a term my friend prefers to use haha..... SOTONG SOTONG SOTONG MEEEEEEEEEEEE

for a reason that eludes me, the chef was gone............. gone into retirement? anyway this new chef is pretty ok......... i couldnt have tell much of a difference between the old and the new...

a good effort nonetheless......!

tiger prawn

the buzzword today is tiger prawns.....

for all you know, the market price for tiger prawns is dearer than frozen lobster at newton hawker centre....

if i remember correctly,

tiger prawn = $8 /100 gm....

lobster = $6 or $7 / 100 gm.....

the americans who visited newton might have gotten a rude shock but then, they placed an order for 8 tiger prawns right???

they knew the price cos it's displayed prominently........ so what's the problem....???

when i visit newton, i make sure the hawker weigh the seafood and inform me of the total weight.......... fair for everybody.....

famine....

an early dinner = hungry in the wee hours.......

yes that's what is happening to me now........... haha

is there anything to eat..?? i could look though the cabinets..... 

but ever since the bak chor mee store closed down, there's no more cheap and good supper places within 5 mins of my home....

too bad

all gone...... sunday's dinner.....

all gone..... 

4+1 hungry people did what they need to do......

not among the best but i guess it's was ok......

many legs....

yesterday's dinner....

before pics.....

say cheeseeeeeeeeeeee.........

after pic

considering the mess we made on previous occasions, this is very decent....... 

all of the same kind......

lunch for saturday was laksa bee hoon yong tau hoo................ i think that's ok since it was quite some time since i last visited the food stall.........

and guess what, last week i had steamboat for dinner......... so i dun quite understand why did i end up with steamboat for dinner yesterday....... laksa steamboat to be exact.........

huh? laksa gravy for both lunch and dinner...................? doesnt happen very often.......... dun think i gonna have laksa in the days and weeks to come...... the saving grace is both the servings of gravy are excellent.....

pics are of the aftermath...........

less of a warzone but very much cheaper than the previous week......
