Orchard Cafe @ Orchard Hotel

Is durian season and since we are going somewhere for buffet to celebrate my girlfriend birthday we decided on Orchard hotel since they having this dinner and durian buffet together.

Upon reaching the place we were surprised that they actually closed up the smoking area for durian session. I guess is due to the heavy durian smell that why they do it outdoor and restrict us from eating it indoor as well. As for the outdoor area they actually set up an area where they will be a chef opening up the whole durian for you and beside this they also have fried durian and durian waffle. We requested for glove to eat the durian lolz The durian is really good!!! Lots of flesh and baby seed, bitter meat which is my favorite best of all is free 'flow' you can have as many as you want so long your stomach can fill it lolz... Not forgetting the durian puff and waffle, the waffle is hot, crispy and had the strong aromatic smell of the durian, so nice :P

As for the indoor dinner area, for me the variety is okay. They have sashimi area, appetizer, seafood, chinese, indian, dessert and area where there is chef making the laksa and mee rebus for you.

What I like
- Durian corner, durian creme, puff and almost everything: P
- Some variety of cheese and biscuits
- Fresh sashimi
- Fresh oyster
- Fresh prawn
- Laksa
- Pork belly bun

What I dislike
- Curry was cold on top so you have to stir it before you take
- Salted vegetable soup, too sour and salty

Ye Lai Xiang Hot & Cold Cheng Teng @ Bedok Food Centre

One of my girlfriend wanted to try the Cheng Teng after watch a show on channel  introducing this stall. It is located in a hawker centre at Bedok camp area close to Singapore Expo. You may think that is just another common dessert stall in a hawker centre but not for this one. They only sell cheng teng for their dessert thou they have a food stall which sell satay beehoon beside them. Their cheng teng is not cheap as well, each bowl start from $2 - $3 and you will expect a long queue during lunch time.

I ordered a bowl of cold cheng to try. Normally you will get alot of shaved ice but here they served with ice cubes. And one thing which make their cheng teng so special is because of the ingrediants inside. They have the additional of dired winter melon slice and dried persimmon which make the soup taste nicer and more fragrant, very special unlike those normal cheng teng we usually had. And my girlfriend said that most cheng teng was factory made as for this stall we believe the owner cooked it all by himself.

Is really nice to have a nice cooling cheng teng during a hot day, I will recommend it to everyone to give it a tried :)

The Prata Place @ Springlef Garden

Getting too lazy to update my blog lol....

Let me introduce you one of my most favourite place for supper, The Prata Place located at Upper Thomson road next to Hans close to Nee Soon Camp. One thing about this place is that they closed at 12midnight unlike other prata place which operate 24hours. If you always frequent here you will definitely know Mr Sarsi the most friendly staff over here. Weekend can be quite crowded and parking can be quite difficult as well but for the sake of the crispy prata I don't mind at all.

As a regular over here we always ordered the same thing, tea tarik, cheese prata and plain prata. At times we will also try others but will still stick to what we like most :)

Cheese prata - Is huge, crispy and yummy

Plain prata - I simply like this because is really crispy, fluffy and nice and most important is it not too small unlike the plain prata sold elsewhere :P

I  love their fish curry, is not very spicy and not very oily best with their prata :D
