[Felix]

^naah she had cake with them at school...

[soepom]

tea with tweedles at front row

^he ordered a dose of inspiration to go with his intellectual consumption of nietzche.

i had a few cups of happiness instead. god knows i could do with some.

yes. they have cheesy names for their tea. don't shoot me - i didn't name 'em.

dinner: felt very....very wanton

i only just realised - this was all i ate today. damn. one-meal-days must end.

that said, i had red wine, erdinger and hectic jazz for supper. not too shabby.

I was told by local SG friends that back in the old days everybody ate a runny egg for breakfast. Its considered healthy.

venison tastes good. even better when you're thinking that you're eating bambi's mom.

[axtsang]

nettiemoore, food seems kind of sloppy for VanCity standards. Ghetto place? I'm chinese too if you haven't noticed lol

[Ahlvahroe]

today is one of those days where i wish i had a camera, i had the essential comfort food. my moms meatloaf and gravy, sweet corn, mashed potatoes, white rice, and some potato bread for sopping. so good.

[nettiemoore]

made this today for dinner

[nettiemoore]

nettiemoore, food seems kind of sloppy for VanCity standards. Ghetto place? I'm chinese too if you haven't noticed lol

indeed, i agree but for the price i paid cant really complain. it was from hons at downtown.

in total all of it was16 dollars...so pretty cheap. dont eat there all the time though, i usually eat home cooked chinese meals.

yeah we eat truckloads of eggs. i just exhausted my carton of 30 eggs in 2 weeks. that's why we're so healthy

I was told by local SG friends that back in the old days everybody ate a runny egg for breakfast. Its considered healthy.

that's right! it was an affordable source of protein for people then. we're still doing it now. not "a" runny egg, but TWO! did you try it when you were here? it's usually consumed with a drizzle of dark soy sauce and white pepper. but i slurp it neat.

how does deer taste? kinda gamey?

it tastes kinda like beef, but a lot more tender. the fat content is much lower compared to beef too.

breakfast

[nettiemoore]

strawberry nutella crepe

wow that looks so good...

[soepom's sl*t]

breakfast

This is like sandwich kaiseki-style...

Anyway, for supper last night...

Mow matcha ice-cream cup with matching green tea choc-sticks. Yes, I bought it for the feline-reminiscent name...

Then lunch today (skipped breakfast):

Went all Hainanese. White chicken rice with pickles, pork chop rice, gingko soup. Water chestnut and lime juice to wash it down.

Very home-cooked feel, this place.

[AstroWolf]

I honestly wish i had the ability to remeber to eat at all, much less such nice meals as so many of you all. Damn, i gotta get my game up.

[soepom's sl*t]

Went totally ol' skool for dinner. Cheap, tasty comfort food in an old estate kopitiam with the atmosphere of a cheesy 50's communal wedding dinner.

The staple dish you see above is economic bee hoon, so called because I assume it fills the stomach for close to no cost and can thus feed an entire family cheaply.

Accompanying it are: crispy fried chicken wings (out of this world good), stir-fried cabbage, sweet Taiwanese sausage, fish cakes and otah (minced fish paste).

Total cost of meal for four hungry people: SG$19.00

A close-up of the chicken, fish cakes, sausage and otah...

[styleofmind]

HOLY SHIT! its the chicken wings from commonwealth food centre. i know the joint! mad props! that one dish is one of the few i remember from my days back in singapore. i swear i could eat a tub of those greasy little fuckers all by myself. especially when accompanied with the chilli sauce.

HELLA YUMM

[J20]

Sup_

I want some buffalo wings now.

::drools::

You guys know how to eat!

Peace.

very nice.

i too like the white chicken rice with pickles and pork chop rice. its one of my favorite meals either for lunch or dinner.

[soepom]

rare friday night dinner at home:

teppanyaki/steamboat of 10 different types of fungi. i don't even know the english names for most of them. that said, shitake mushroom tastes a little chocolatey when roasted to a crisp. lovely. now all that's left is for me to try real shrooms i guess.

steamed crab on glutinous rice - as i was eating this, i was thinking of how i am going to describe it so you guys can even have some idea of how good this tasted. the subtle sweetness of fresh seafood...the firm white flesh that flakes and melts in your mouth...the creamy (yet crispy?) "roe"... fuck. it just tasted so so good. overwhelming, but not overpowering.

dessert would've been nice ordinarily. but today, i actually resented it for distracting my tongue from the lingering memories of a crustacean dream.

[ProfMonnitoff]

Some German steez...

Leberkäse

Spiegelei

Kartoffelsalat

[dizzle]

wow soepom, that meal looks fucking amazing. You stay making me hungry!

[soepom's sl*t]

The crabs look like they're hugging the rice, haha! So cute...

Anyway, I too had mushrooms and crab today... of a cheaper and less gourmet quality than your meal was, oh Mistress mine.

And here's what was left of a hasty dinner. Grabbed a light meal before heading to a champagne-guzzling soiree..

Thai stuffed chicken wings, fish cakes, soft-shell crab and sticky mango pudding (not shown).

[misterpretender]

i'm having pork cutlets, asparagus and rice right now...

[Felix]

@ProfMonitoff: haha germany represent

daddys birthday dinner...

this is what i had ( dad had 5 courses)

desert pics unfortunately sucked

[plongin]

felix, i can barely tell what that stuff actually is, but that is some amazing plating skills. must've been an awesome restaurant.

[Felix]

i wish i could tell you what it was but it would take me hours to translate all that crap
