Peperoni Pizza: Greenwood Avenue, Part 2

We also ordered lots of pizza. We had the option of having half half. So we just ordered many combination of halves.

I have no idea what they are. But you can play a game and guess what they are. :-)













Here's part of the menu that has the pizza. Just play mix and match ya..
If you are wondering how big and the price, it's also listed in the menu here.



Bon Appetit!

Peperoni Pizza: Greenwood Avenue

You remember I told you about the Estivo Gelateria place we went a few days ago? Well, we actually ate at Peperoni Pizza first. 20 over of us were meeting for our regular monthly eating meets to celebrate birthdays.

We order a few starts and around 8 - 9 plates of pasta. The table was very long, so I did not take photo of every dish. We were too busy eating and talking!

For starters, we order Portobello Mushroom with Parmesan Cheese & chicken.



Calamari Fritti, Deep fried squid rings, lemon mayo & tomato sauce.



Here's pictures of 3 pastas:
Linguine Arrabbiata: Red chilli, garlic & tomato sauce.



Fettucini Vongole: Clams in white wine sauce.



Penne Funghi & Pollo: Button Mushroom and chicken in brown sauce.



Tomorrow, I shall post all the pizzas that we tried. Stay tuned!

Crystal Jade La Mian Xiao Long Bao: Holland Village

This was actually taken about 1 month ago. 4 of us went to La Mian Xiao Long Bao to have dinner. Here's what we ordered.

I have ordered this before, but the friend of ours said we should. It's nice and I tell super potently spicy! It's Wantons in spicy chilli oil.



I will never get sick of eating this. Deep fried Eel. Yummmmmmeeeee.



Another of my favourites. I think you might seen this countless times. Long Beans and minced meat.



This is white pork and its absolutely yummy!



What's coming to a Xiao Long Bao shop without eating Xiao Long Bao? Here goes...



This is red bean pancake. We ordered this for dessert. Just look at the red bean oozing out!



Enjoy!

Din Tai Fung at Raffles City Shopping Centre

Din Tai Fung is a famous Taiwan chain that has branches all over the world. Sis and I like this place because of the freshly made Xiao Long Baos.

This branch we visited was in Raffles City Shopping Centre. Our friend visited from overseas and we brought them here for lunch.

The Signboard right in front.


We like this starter. It always makes you want to have more. Its savoury and taste just so yummy.



This is prawn. It has been wrapped with tofu skins. It is crispy outside and the prawns inside is fresh.



The Xiao Long Bao. The big steamer if you order has 10 of them.



This is the Siu Mai. Cute huh. The prawns are on top.



This is beef stripe noodles. Tempted? haha...



Four of us shared all those stuff. Had a good time chatting and catching up as well.

For those who chose fish, this is the Pan Seared Sea Bass Fillet, Vintage Vinegar.
I took my neighbour's dish. haha...



The desserts were Beer Sorbet with Vanilla - Marinated Strawberries Own Juice & Extra Virgin Olive Oil. I split the photo into 2 portions.





Mignardises. Yummy yummy chocolates.
Since not everyone took them, I had a taste of every kind there!

Raffles Hotel Wedding Luncheon (Part 1)

If you have been following my other blog, you can guess that the food section will follows the occasion.

It was a western Wedding Lunch, instead of the traditional Chinese 8 Course Dinner. It's something quite refreshing.

The pictures were all taken without flash, so its a bit yellowish, as the ballroom was litted very dimly with warm lights.

Here it goes:
The menu for the food.




The Napolean Crab & Barley Salad with Tomato Gazpacho & Virgin Olive Oil.
I actually quite like this!




Different types of bread rolls were served.




Wild Mushroom Consomme Brunoise of Vegetable.
We were all wondering what it was. haha.. But it tasted good. Took this with flash, else everything's black! :-p



There was a choice of Fish or Chicken. I took the Chicken.
Roasted Chicken Breast, Natural Jus Garnish with Port Wine Risotto, Sauteed Asparagus Spears, Confit of Vine Ripened Tomato.



(As usual, when I posted around 5 photos, the rest goes into the next's days :-) )

Hock Lam Street Popular Beef Kway Teow

We were having a wedding rehearsal (read today's Singapore Daily Photo if you want to know more about that) and after it was over, we were famished.

We walked around and ended up here, at the Beef Kuey Teow shop at Purvis Street.



The shop front. (side note: it's amazing how many places in Singapore all call themselves popular in their sign board. haha...)



This is the dry version, with everything in it, HUGE size.



This is a bowl of beef balls only.



This is mine, none of the innards, but only beef slices and beef balls. Medium.



This picture is suppose to show you how big the XL size is. But from this angle, it does not look at that big. That bowl is actually the soup bowl that's used in most chinese restaurant. Look at the can drink and compare. haha..



It's very tasty, but for me personally, I usually prefer not so salty food, so this is a tad too salty for me. But I like it. yum yum....
