Milo Dinosaur @ Cheese Prata Shop, Clementi Road

Had this a few nites ago, while passing some things that I was asked to buy by someone while holidaying in Bangkok.



I had eaten, and I don't really eat supper, so I only ordered a drink. It's called Milo Dinosaur. I wonder how this drink got its name!

A treat of Milo Dinosaur to those who can guess who I had the drink with. haha..

McDonald's Shaker Fries anyone?

This is proving to be quite addictive.


It is fun to put the sachet of who know what into the brown paper bag with fries and shake it out.




Then pour them out on the serving tray and dig in!



Hmmm.. wonder what is the correct fries they should provide. Sometimes, it is so salty, sometimes it is not. Are they suppose to serve shaker fries with unsalted fries or with salted fries?

Chicken Rice - my most eaten lunch.

This is what I ate yesterday, decided to snap it for the fun of it.
Chicken Rice from the chicken rice stall at the canteen where I work.
It might just be the most eaten dish that has gone into me. LOL.




Of course not always chicken wings, sometimes its roast pork, roast chicken, soy chicken (like this one), or 'white' chicken. I always have 'add vegetables' with my chicken rice. $2.40

What's your most eaten dish for lunch?

Tuffles Samples by Sweethut.biz : aka Arzhou's

I had some truffles prepared by Adrian from Sweethut earlier in the evening.

We were waiting for 'someone from the east' to appear before the tasting, so the tuffles were gently melting away. Here's some photos of the truffles.

These chocolate powder coated ones are Kahlua flavoured.



The ones coated with sugar (that has dissolved due to the Singapore heat) are Rum flavoured.



I am a super dark chocolate person, I would love it to be more bitter :-p


Support Adrian, our local entrepreneur who is starting up.

Greeny slimy stuff at McDonalds

After lunch last week, colleagues and I decided to take refuge in the air-conditioning of Macs Restaurants after lunch.

So, some people ordered the new Jasmine Tea, others the sundae cone, I thought I will try the new promo thingy that's part of the Shrek promo thingy.

Ordered the Zesty Lime Sundae. Looks slimy doesn't it?



It actually taste quite good! The greeny thingy has little cubes of jelly. It's also not too sweet. $1.80 for this sundae.



Hmmm I wonder if the same promo is available all around the world?

Oreo Cheesecake by Crystal Jade My Bread

Oh no... I hope it's not a birthday cake overdose on this blog.
But this is quite delicious. It's a oreo cheesecake by Crystal Jade My Bread.



You can see we love celebrating birthdays! No matter how old or how young a person, blowing candles always brings joy to their faces. This cake's for a little 8 year old girl. You could just melt when she smiles!

Her mummy bought this cake for her, and we all celebrated with her. Dorcas is her name.



(no more cross section, else Tigerfish will say something again.. haha)



Mini mini oreos right on top!



Do you like people to celebrate birthdays for you?
I know ladies like it too (though they will deny it), we just need to put only 1 candles, or put down candles that total to 16 years old :-)
