Sunday, September 09, 2007 #$#$# Hog's Breath Cafe #$#$# Looong overdue... Juz before school started.. but for some reason, this outing brings a smile. Miz the days at hall 15, i guess. Welfare sessions, outings to kbox, weekly-masks, watching hamsters grow healthy, bathing sessions.. But things change, i guess.. Those times will always have a special place in my heart. Back to food =)  Hog's Breath Cafe @ Chijmes!!  Yannie recommends their set lunches!! which is SUPER value for $$!! lolz.. it was funny too, now tt i think of it, tt she first showed me the main menu.. then showed me the set menu. the ambience is my fav style- casual and fun! the waiters and waitresses were polite and nice, but they tended to disappear.. partly cos not many patrons i guess.. well, we met up on a weekday! =) one waiter was damn cute. lolz. it'll be nice if they had set meals for dinner and great cheap beer too... cos i'll definitely be a fan! Set lunch comes with soup - chicken or beef- chicken is family-style, food for the soul -type of soup! + a main dish ( ht had their fish and chips, i took their dijon chicken which comes with avocado sauce, yannie the beef eater took the steak!) + a lovely warm brownie served with vanilla icecream! the mains are all good.. =) ht ate almost all of her fish and chips! (quite a feat okie..) yannie recommends the steak to all other beef eaters (she's a beef expert! if she says it's good, it's good) and their chicken is super yum! (i never imagined avocado this way..) and we all love their crispy curly fries!!! - there's yannie defending her stash of curly fries, lolz =p  *~*~* Cravings Satisfied! *~*~*  This week, i had many of my cravings satisfied!! Starting with mom cooking one of my fav deserts- beancurd egg soup with ginko nuts!! It's always such a treat!! Unlike the ones outside which are always sweet, mom does it juz right! so i drink lots and lots without any guilt at all! =) Althou my voice has been MIA most of this week.. it no reason to pass off such yummy nasi lemak!! lolz.. situated along tanjong katong road, near Munchy's Donuts (opposite COH) is this nasi lemak stall which has a perpetual queue!! it opens at 530pm till 2am.. i was there at 535 and already there was a queue!! it's quite ex- 3 dishes for $3.50.. but the rice is very very fragrant, light and fluffy!! the chilli is realli good too! I mixed the chilli into the rice in the pic.. if not, the rice is actually pristine white... worth a try!! 3rd dish is ah bo ling! i love peanuts =) mom bought for me one evening! pleasant surprise!! cos she normally doesn't approve of deserts.. so this was extra sweet! (as in not flavour-wise) =) %#%#% A day of comfort food %#%#% I HATE MONDAYS! Ahem. Pardon me.  In need of comfort food to soothe my monday blues, we headed down Quad for lunch! Had their seafood pasta! which looks good, doesn't it? =) well, it's good for canteen food.. loved tt they put in effort to sprinkle and grill some cheese.. We were terribly piggy tt day.. after lunch- we juz observed other ppl buying their food.. and noticed a great deal of ppl buying deserts!! so we decided to check out the deserts!! ~ some puddings and stuff.. but we resisted okie...  This is freaking GOOD carbonara!! the little cafe at Parkway which we had the great sandwhich and cakes/scones- they have set lunches too!! and boy, it's a great value of money!! i love love love this carbonara - hands-down better than Blackboard's.. the cream-cheese-egg sauce juz comfort food that sets you in the hmmm- heaven... pure pure luxury at such a good price! Set meal is about $12++ to $18 ~ depending on the type of pasta you would like. Set includes free flow bread and a bowl of soup -upgrade $1 for mushroom/ minestrone soup- it's worth it! and don't gorge on bread (like we stupidly did cos we were hungry..) cos the pasta - carbonara (as above) and the seafood pasta (below) are of filling portions and absolutely delicious!!  Seafood pasta- Candice had hers with tomato-based and i tried it tossed Agilo Oilo style. A big big plus point tt they served it with the prawn heads too!! (and detached) such flavour shouldn't go to waste!!  Back to tcc's new menu =) Tried their new drink- choc frappe with orange tang (i forgot the name).. that one's quite nice esp if you like orange and choc together! Lychee Jazz is the one below. i ordered it cos the pic of it in the menu was so pretty!! and pretty it is! =) but i can't realli taste lychee, apart from the fruit in there... the syrup at the bottom.. tasted like.. well, syrup =p Love the mint leaves thou!! Mint leaves and sodas should go together!! it's the taste of summer.. and so pretty to look at as you sip! $%$%$ Lessons in School $%$%$  This sem, I made a new friend called Kellyn- who is Candice's friend =) She's realli nice!! They were meeting for project group discussion in the morning before lessons, so i tagged along to sch early (cos candice drove).. and Kellyn actually bought us breakfast!! it was really sweet of her! I lost my voice that day, so i didn't realli get to thank her... so, thanks kellyn!! =)  Hl bought us cornflakes last wed!! which we munched during 830 lecture.. AA306 is so damn hard.. Here's the result of totally lost minds.... We tried okie!! we aimed to start paying attn when the lecturer starts a new "topic".. but oh well.. our conversations are much more entertaining =p but this lecturer is really good.. love his sensibility and presentation. it's juz the content tt is super confusing.. We'll try harder this comming wed. ~%~%~ A dress with my name!! ~%~%~  JJ named a dress after me!! hahaha- cos it's my fav colors! =) So happy!! shopping in JJ's car and then parkway! Feeling broke.... But it's well worth it! For those interested in buying my namesake, or any clothings (they're really value for money compared to what is sold anywhere else in Sg), visit JJ's webbie! *Guys, get sth for your gfs!!* http://flirtydolly.livejournal.com/ Enjoy! |
