Crabby....
















For all those crab lovers out there, I found a very very beri beri good lobang man. That is the stall I will recommend now. Some people might have heard before Don’s pie, be it chicken pie, Sheppard’s pie, but I bet few of you all have heard that the Don’s Pie Club actually serve crab!!!! OMG!!!! Fan-F!@#$ing-tastic!!!! Located @ 20 Cross Street, #01-34/35/36, China Square, this little alcove serves one of the best crab dishes I have tasted so far.
They serve mainly 3 different kinds of crab dishes; the black pepper crab bee hoon, the claypot crab bee hoon and the crab mee sua. Each dish is unique in its own way but 1 thing is for sure, the crab they used is fresh Sri Lankan crab and each portion contains 1 whole crab! WOW!!!!
The black pepper crab bee hoon is a testament to how bee hoon and black pepper crab can combine to give such a magnificent masterpiece. Using Sri Lankan crab (I think), thin bee hoon, and their special black pepper sauce, they have created a dish so nice that I would want to sing “You raise me up” by Josh Groban after having my first bite. You can actually taste black pepper sauce and at the same taste the freshness of the crab. It is the best of both worlds!!! When the black pepper sauce combines with the crab, transforms the sauce into very delicious crab flavour black pepper gravy. When this gravy mixes with the bee hoon, it was fabulous. The bee hoon is soaked with black pepper aroma with a tingly crab flavour.
The claypot crab bee hoon looks surprisingly like the fish head bee hoon, but instead of fish, it is crab!!! Fish head bee hoon is already tasty enough; imagine if it is replaced by crab, it is just heavenly. BUT!!! Wait a minute, there is no need for imagination! There is such a dish in existence. I can safely say that this claypot crab bee hoon can rival any fish head bee hoon. The soup is superb (big fan of soup); it has the crab taste and the fish head bee hoon soup taste. This blend makes the soup rich. The ginger in it brings out the soup even more, giving it a tangy taste, thus making it less ger lart.
Lastly, there is the crab mee sua. Some famous person quoted “do something every day that surprises you”. Well after eating this crab mee sua, it surprised me. It brought me to a whole different level of taste. The richness and the essence of the crab actually sipped into every strand of mee sua and the gravy. The gravy looks like the normal mee sua dish with the egg beat into it, but the essence of the crab blends into the gravy and made it taste something like the crabmeat shark fins soup (without the shark fin of course, p . s do not really like to eat shark’s fin). The gravy is a bit spicy thus making it even better than the normal gravy poured on the mee sua in certain mee sua dishes. Wonderful partnership!!!
One plate or bowl or claypot of this crab dishes cost $16.00. Sounds pricey? Well it is not. The portion is rather huge. Even for me, I have difficulty in finishing it by myself (trust me, I am not kidding). One portion can be shared among at least 2 people or at most 3 people. So………GO CHECK IT OUT MAN!!!!

INDON BBQ!!!! SEDAP SIA!!!!!


Hi people!!! This is my very first post. Really can't believe I am actually going to start this blog despite my recent problem with my size and weight. But.....Hey....heck it man, eating is my priority and I do not give a 'crab' about my weight. OK.....My first recommendation is the Riverside Indonesian Restaurant branch @ Plaza Singapura (P.S) Kopitiam. I have been patronising this stall since don't know when. I remember during my T32 years, The gang which consists of the guys in the class (except for certain going to get married individual) and some of our female comrades will always end up eating the same thing before our weekly movie dosage. And, every time, is the same thing; Ayam Panggang.
The Ayam Panggang set meal consists of a bowl of chicken soup, a slice of omelette and lemak (coconut rice) topped with curry sauce. There is an addition of vegetables to the meal but sad to say that day when I went to eat there, they ran out of vegetables. The chicken thigh is grilled to perfection. There were no instances when I ate there where the chicken thigh was not grilled thoroughly. The meat is succulent and tender and the black sweet sauce (Indonesian Soya Sauce) compliments the chicken thigh to give a combination of sweet and slightly smoky taste. In addition, the sweet sauce not only compliments the chicken meat, it goes well with the lemak too. The lemak only have a tinge of coconut taste but nonetheless a combination of the lemak and the curry sauce brings out the meal even more. If you wish to spice things up a little, the chili sauce that they serve goes well with the chicken and most importantly the rice. The sauce taste like the normal nasi lemak chili and they put ikan billis to bring out the taste of the sauce.
For some people, the sweet sauce might be a little too sweet. So if you want to taste more of the chicken meat and not entirely the sweet sauce gravy, you may want to consider adding a little lesser sweet sauce. The meal costs around $4.80 and the addition of vegetables cost $0.80. Besides the Ayam Panggang, the outlet also serves other types of grill set meals like fish, sotong (squid) and fried set meals like fried chicken and prawn set. There is also a curry chicken set meal. All the set comes with the usual lemak, omelette, and soup. Personally, I have only tried the Ayam Panggang and the Ikan (fish) Panggang and both tastes equally great.
Overall, the meal is quite affordable and it taste great. The only downside to eating there is the queuing for the food and the problem of getting a seat. During lunch or dinner, you may have to wait up to around 20-30minutes before you get to order. So patience and time is something you must have when you want to head down there and eat.
The location of the place is @ Plaza Singapura level 6 kopitiam #06-15 . Opens Daily from 10am-10pm

The Beginning.....

Yoyo....Muhahaha
Hi people, friends and whatever as you have know me long enough; I love food. Eating is my priority in LIFE (for those who know the joke)!!!
吃得是褔, or eating is happiness, is my motto in life.
To me what else can be greater or more enjoyable than tasting nice delicious food and feel HAPPY after the meal especially with a group of friends?
So....I have finally decided to set up this blog and dedicate it to my all friends who went out to crazy with me to find good food in Singapore. Special thanks to Joan 'rabbit' Tiong, Doris 'Cloudy' Soh and Jonathan'Laoda'Tan for urging me to start a food blog.
I will use this food blog to recommend to all my friends out there the best food joints; be it the very ATAS(expensive) kind or the cheap and good stuffs.
I would not dare to say I have travelled enough places in Singapore to find good food, but I be willing to go out and try to top up on the knowledge I have so far.
So, which means everyone of ya can tell me where to go and we go chiong for MAKAN!!!!

Most importantly remember, EATING IS HAPPINESS!!!!

Cheers
