Teh O siu dai. This is how I usually start my Sunday mornings.

But today, as I slurp up my favourite bowl of beehoon, and sip on my pipping hot tea, I feel a sense of pride and gratefulness which I have not felt before. Today, Singapore turns 50 years old. And the reason I can eat this bowl of noodles and drink this cup of tea without having to worry about not having a roof over my head, or not having enough water, is because of the people who have worked so hard to make it all happen. The uncle and aunties who have to wake up early in the morning to serve us with delicious food, the cleaners who help keep our country clean, and the leaders of Singapore who have led us to where we are today, and so many more. As I was about to leave after eating, I thanked the uncle and aunty for the good bowl of bar chor mee. Beaming with pride, they waved goodbye and wished us a happy national day.

This is home. And I couldn't be more thankful to have one that has beautiful views, impeccable food, and people who live in peace and harmony.

So when the manager of the restaurant told us that we wouldn't want to eat roast duck anymore after eating the duck at Xin Cuisine, I was skeptical.
But man oh man, did he know what he was talking about. The duck was one of the most tender I've ever had; it was literally falling off the bone. And because the duck was infused with Pu Er tea, it took away that duck taste that I don't particularly like.
I might not be a duck person, but I'm a believer of Xin cuisine now. And their amazing duck and food of course.

My. Curry.
I've always heard about how good and authentic Sami's is. Now I know why. The curries, briyani and chicken masala were life-changing. So satisfied, and I now know where I'm going whenever I need to satisfy my cravings for Indian curries.

Perfect way to start the long weekend. Definitely will be back to Drury Lane to try other items on the menu!

Never get tired of bingsoo, and it always brings back memories of schooling in korea.

Bro wanted to try the oreo bingsoo this time round. But I think the black sesame bingsoo is still the ultimate winner in my heart. 아 빙수를 먹으면 행복해요~

Spell it backwards: desserts. Which is exactly what I need now. Fat cat's crispy waffles with that lovely aroma of lavender, paired with a scoop of their ice cold icecream would definitely do the trick.

And sweet. And tastes like korea. That can only mean one thing: BINGSOO.

I have to say, before I tried my first bowl in sg, I was a bit apprehensive. Would sg's bingsoo be able to match up to any of those from korea? Especially since I've eaten a good number of bingsoos during my 4 months spent in Korea (how can one not?), so I'm more picky with texture and milkiness of the ice.

But boy, did nunsongyee prove to be good! It definitely exceeded my expectations, and managed to satisfy my bingsoo craving after not being to eat some in so long. Definitely need to go back soon, cause the craving for bingsoo is back. 아... 먹어싶다ㅠㅠ

...to After You, because it's been over half a year and yet I still cannot forget the taste of these beauties. Crispy on the outside, yet soft and gooey on the inside. Especially when you pour over that honey, dab some of that melted cold ice-cream goodness over that thick toast... man do i need this right now.

If I could eat here everyday, I probably would. With consistently tasty soup, fresh fish, and a bunch of (my favourite) bittergourd, why not! I love taking a bite off a piece of fish, then slurping up a good spoonful of that clear yet flavourful soup. Ahhhhh, so satisfyingly good. What would I do without our comfy hawker food.

Since my parents read about a shop that serves up some delicious wanton mee at Empress Road Market we've never tried before, it was a perfect excuse to eat some for our weekly Sunday breakfast makan.

And boy, did the trip there pay off. In the words of my dad,"The noodles, the wanton, the sui gao (dumplings), the char siew. Everything was on point!" Took the words right out of my mouth! Most wanton mees that i like in sg have good noodles, good char siew, but none had wantons that really got me wanting more. These wantons however, were life changing. I'll never be able to eat commercially made wantons ever again.

When ever I want mee some really good wanton mee, especially with good wanton, I know where I'm going now.

This drip coffee outlet at the Bangkok Arts and Cultural Centre or BACC is a must go if you are there! I will never miss the chance to savor their drip coffee and every brew is from the heart of the brewer!

The cafe is located in the Jam Factory itself! Not very accessible if you are taking train so preferably go by taxi! But this is a beautiful place and a great dinning experience you will have!
