Canton i

So in return, troopie Beats brought me to one of her places that she goes for congee!
To me initially, this is a place that is so nicely tucked in the corner, you won’t really pay attention to go ..
So we went Ā …. šŸ™‚

Cutleries

and we ordered:

Crispy White Baits

Crabmeat and Broccoli

Stuffed You tiao

and of course, not forgetting what she came for:

Meat Ball and Fish Slices Congee

Fried Beef Hor Fun

 

Verdict: 2/2 of us will go back! I think we really liked the stuffed you tiao dish. It was not oily, but crispy, not overstuffed and executed well I thought. The crabmeat and broccoli was just.. hmm mediocre but I don’t think I will order it again. The porridge however, was really quite good. The fish slices didn’t have any fish smell and tasted quite sweet! like seafood kind of sweet in its own ways! and the meatball servings were quite generous! The Beef Noodles were a little dry and abit too oily for my liking .. I don’t really like how they put tenderizer inside the beef and make it taste like .. ‘artificial beef’ .. But there is a chao- ta(burnt wok) taste to it .. so the fire was controlled quite well in the execution of this dish. One of the favourite was also the white baits. The seasoning and the way its fried was just very different from those I have eaten before. There is seasoning that gave it a little kick – it felt as if I was eating the Taiwanese chicken chop chilli’s seasoning, but in a nicer and more spread out way.

Awfully Chocolate

I met up with my star and we were walking along ion basement to find ourselves some dessert before going back .. and we were drawn by this insanely cute dessert. As explained by the shop lady, there are traces of horlicks inside as we bit into it – but we were such suckers by its appearance, and we were ‘conned’. As we devoured it, there were NO elements of Horlicks 😦 disappointed 😦

Snowman Cake!!

The cute appearance made up for it ..

but we were awfully disappointed 😦 it was also a little too big and much for the two of us for a after meal dessert.

I think we will just stick to their normal chocolate cakes.

on a shorter note,

Merry Christmas one and all šŸ™‚

Paradise Dynasty

I met a friend for a while to discuss our Japan trip that is coming up with our familes in december, as well as to catch up on things since I have been back for almost a month! and yes a day after my birthday and she thought maybe to bring me to dinner šŸ™‚

we decided to go try Paradise dynasty after walking around for a while.

Fried Fish with garlic flakes

Spinach with garlic

Xiao Long Paus

Upon uploading the pictures, I realised how we seem to have ordered a garlic themed dinner. Nonetheless, the xiao long paus, I think the ones at imperial were nicer. This one marginally lost just in the skin texture – i think the imperial ones, their skin are slightly thinner. The rest of the food was average and not too bad …

Maybe another time when i am feeling moreĀ adventurous, I would give the colourful ones a shot – though I haven been Ā hearing mixed reviews about the colourful ones ..

The wait was long!!!! but ok pretty worth the wait to some extent…
