It's Vesak Day today. Not really a very special day for us but at least the kids do not have CCA today and also mean that I can drive the whole day. Since the holiday is on Sat, we are given a day off. Will be clearing this coming Mon to prepare the kids for the exam.

Had BF at Chinatown Food Centre before heading to the market to do some marketing.


Must blacklist this shop. Additional charge for separating the fried intestine and the porridge.

Fried Intestine Porridge. Nice but a bit ex.




Since it's Vesak Day. We must have some vegetarian food as well.

Went back home to revise the exam with the kids.

Our homecooked lunch.

Kennie's favourite. Lady fingers with Chilli.

Omelette with Prawn

Shark Fin Melon Soup. The melon that look a bit like Shark Fin and so it's how it got its name
Ugly Steam Fish. Chinese likes to eat this during CNY.

Went shopping at Tampines One. The whole place is packed like hell. Singaporean simply love new things. Anyway, there's quite a no. of "Special" shop that we do not see in other shopping mall. Wanted to have dinner at Manpuku Japanese Gourmet Town but looking at the queue, I think we got to wait for at least an hour. Manpuku is a 500-seater food hall bringing together ten of Japan's established brands. Technically, this concept is fantastic - it lets your tastebuds travel all over Japan, sampling some of the best in each region. They've got the chefs here for a month, training the local staff and imparting recipes that will uphold the brand's image. The name Manpuku means a full stomach or having eaten to satisfaction.

Was quite disappointed that we didn't get to try the food there and we ended having a lousy dinner at Keat Hong. Business was very good. Think most of them celebrated Mother's day in advance. Food and service sucks due to the good business I suppose. Don't think will be coming back again.

Fried Salad Prawn

Assam Fish Head

Fried Vege in Superior Stock. It don't look Superior to me.

Salted Vege Soup
