Super Food Acai

Image
After the 1st experience with the super food we wanted to make it ourselves so Janelle urge me to get the acai powder from iherb and I dug out my Philip blender from the store room, got the fruit and get into action. The powder wasnt cheap, cost me ard $22 even from iherb.  We added frozen banana, pineapple, frozen blue berries and strawberries, ice cube, apple juice and here we have our family version of acai. Yum yum. We ate it like ice cream.

We love Yunan mee xian and we always have it at HongGuo. I happened to chance upon this restaurant next to the new building of Novena Sq and I told Law we should go and try.  They have quite a few noodles dishes to chose from, price is quite acceptable. Just like to HongGuo, the ingredients are presented in smaller plates for you to add into the hot soup yourself.  Their standard Signature rice noodles which considered of 12 items. Janelle ordered this while I customised my soup to sour veg base and my own ingredient. I think is a wrong choice because it wasnt that nice. Was expecting stronger flavour soup base for mine.  Law had this and he didnt want rice noodles so he has noodles instead. 

A new Childcare for Skyler

We have finally settle the new childcare center for Skyler. It was a choice of convenience me or the people who fetch him. When we asked Skyler he chose the one that nearer to nai nai. We still putting him in a buddhist childcare center. Seriously I missed TaiPei CC very much. Lets hope Skyler will settle down at the new place soon.

OMOTE adopt a new logo for the restaurant. New menu and new dishes too.  My bowl. Salmon overload. I asked Law to order whatever he likes to eat.  End up I order the rest and he has to eat.  Happy Birthday to my big boy.  A private dining for 2 of us only.  Little boy is the 1st to wish daddy Happy Birthday with a big hug.  We went around looking for breakfast and still end up at Hans.  Decided to dropby Dempsey hill to check out some food to cook.  Cabinet of sausages. I love this supermarket at Huber Very nice place to explore. I went to get my foie gras After much search I decided to try Da Miao instead of Upin this time.  Little boy is happy. Purposely starve him a little so he will be eating. Why I chose Da Miao because they have the SiChuan traditional 变脸 performance at a certain timing. We were seated at 6:30pm as I didnt know when the show...

One night when we strolled along chinatown looking for a restaurant to settle our dinner. We chanced upon this and looking at the buzzing biz we decided to try it. The restaurant is very popular among the Japanese and Korean working class. Quite surprising right and it was a China Chinese restaurant. So happen my BIL called and we asked them to join us for dinner. Remember to book a table because they are always full and there is always queue.  We ordered about 10 dishes and because my sister family is joining us so we able to order more dishes to try this time.  The kids love the dishes and it was this restaurant that the kids started to new dishes like jellyfish. 京酱肉丝 the 1st time. It was delicious and so easy to eat. Lala were very meaty too. In total we ordered these. The fried rice was good and the kids chose to eat fried rice instead.  海蜇皮拌凉瓜 芥兰 番茄炒蛋 京酱肉丝 锅包肉 辣子鸡 姜葱啦啦 酸辣汤 东北炒饭 x 3 蛋黄焗南瓜 In total I sp...

Birthday Celebration at cross the border.

Image
Let make the celebration in July a bit different. We decided to bring the kids over the causeway for food and play. We had breakfast at Woodland and due to the jam we head for bingsu at Mt Austin. The cafe was highly recommended but when we were there most of the items recommended in the blog had stop selling. Such a big cafe and only us around.  We end up ordering a bingsu and left. Really very disappointed with the cafe. Most the cafe really cannot upkeep at all.  We wanted to drop the kids at Mt Austin to engage them with activities but none of them wanted to play go cart at all. We end up walking along that street to look for drinks and food.  Skyler waiting for jie jie to get her bubble tea.  We came across this Monga from taiwan. Chicken chop and we decided to take a break with a snack. Juicy chicken chop.  Fries is good. Ordered the seaweed chicken chop and the kids like it. Sister and Brother lo...

Every year I am counting the blessing for the kids. July has came and celebration just started. A month of bounty as well as alot of eating, gather and gifts. to keep the tradition I will try to remember to make red egg for the birthday person in the family.  This is also one of the must EAT homemade ang chao mee sua for the birthday boy. Thankful the kids are keeping the traditional taste buds.  This year mummy not giving any present but I will be paying for food and birthday celebration expenses. Daddy knows what the boy needs and he upgrade his earpieces to a better quality. Why not the usual branded SONY, JBL, BOSS ear piece? Because I feel there is no need to pamper young teen to the material world now. So Law went to research for something reasonable and yet good ear pieces with very good review. Anyway, the boy doesnt really cares, he is happy with the upgrade of the part. Happily using it daily.  I was on leave to visit the childcare center ...
