人日


Hi everyone! How's CNY for you so far? ^ Check out my dad's creation with century eggs! It's pretty interesting huh. Yeah I thought so too. Heh. The eyes were actually added by my aunt using the tips of golden mushrooms and crab sticks.

Apart from eating, I've been..... eating more. Ah wellllll, the diet can wait till after CNY is over. I've had my sixth steamboat feast and still counting!!!! 


^ Typical steamboat spread. Beef, check; fish, check; veg, check; squid, check; blah, check; blahblah, check; everything, check!

^ What I always aim for. I LOVE mushrooms of all sorts!!!! But my favourites are the golden mushroom and button mushroom ♡^▽^♡ 

^ Kueh lapis, a personal favourite when it comes to traditional kueh. These innocent 6 slices of lapis are now swimming in my tummy hehehehe. Pity I felt they were too oily (they're from Bengawan Solo, btw)

^ Some yam cake from Pine's Garden. It was fortunate that my aunt managed to snag one of these cakes because she hadn't preordered this during CNY and it apparently it was "mandatory" to order in advance. I don't know how exactly she worked her magic but we were happy she did!

^ Homemade pineapple tarts my sister made. It feels comforting knowing what's inside your food. When it's homemade you know EXACTLY how much of what's inside. It's a form of eating clean, which I really appreciate!

^ Hawhawhaw. After kueh lapis I quickly dug my spoon into a pint of belgium chocolate ice cream from The Ice Cream Gallery. I love the ice cream there, it's unpretentious and straightforward. The name of the ice cream is exactly what you'll get! No fanciful names (Ben and *coughs coughs* Jerr-*coughs*-ry. or whatsoever. Brownie points for Ice Cream Gallery for being situated right next to my house! (∩_∩) 

^ At grandma's house~

It's 人日 (renri) tomorrow! So, happy birthday everyone! I'm off to bed for some much-needed sleep. Good night! I'll be back with my food adventures very very soon (⌒▽⌒)
