here's what happen on this foo(d)filing day.
i met peizhi to go to town so that i can pass maveric his mom's m-day gift. and we had mac before that. i had to go and pick the one with the most amount of calories or something - big breakfast.
then while waiting for him, i went to buy haato icecream for my parents as my dad's bday gift and my mom's/grandmom's m-day gift. yummy sweet potato with chestnut and honey & chocolate banana ice cream!
then i finally managed to pass mav's stuff to him. i didnt think he liked it, cus it wasnt well done to me, with him fingering the pouch all the time and all, but he kept insisting that it's alright. oh well.
anyway, after that, pz decided to go b&j to collect her stuff, so i went to get a scoop so that we could sit there and rest a bit.
upon reaching home, i had tomyam seafood soup that my mom cooked. YUM!
at around 5, i went out food hunting with my parents and uncle boon and wife, cus it's m-day and all. we went to geylang, where, supposedly, all the good food are gathered at.
5.30: we ate stinky tofu for the first time! and a couple of side dishes. like eat for fun kind of food. stinky tofu really isnt too stinky. only that everytime you tries to put a piece into your mouth, you can vaguely smell a very pungent smell, something like when someone just shit and left the toilet door open after he is done with his business. no kidding, it really smelt like that to me. but it's ok-tasting i guess, a little sourish and all. and omg quite oily. everything cost $28.
6.00: my parents decided that they wanted a proper meal, so my dad suggested the famous geylang crab beehoon. it's really damn yummy!
BUT! it was freaking expensive! $290 for 5 people!
$10 - stir fried kailan
$28 - 2 pieces of steamed sotong
$50 - 2kg of boiled 'gong gong' (some shellfish thingy)
$50 - 2kg of fresh scallops (now i know that the shells mermaids used for bras are scallop shells.)
$140 - crab beehoon consisting of two HUGE crabs.
and a bunch of others stuff like drinks and all which attributed to the rest of the bill.
although the portion was big and all, we didnt get a say in how much we wanted. they decided for us, and the service was quite bad. i was stoning for a good half an hour before the person bothered to come over to take our order, and another half an hour before our first dish came.
and everything was done by that one person - he ate, he came over to take our order, he prepared the ingredients, and he cooked. basically, in that shop, it's kind of a one-man show i guess. the only things that others helped out with were the ordering of drinks and the delivering and clearing of the dishes. and the food was all quite simple to prepare, save for the crab beehoon, cus most of them were either steamed or boiled. so, impatient people like us cannot understand why it will take them so long to steam a bunch of seafood. really dont know why it's like that.
also, although the food was nice and all, it was TOO salty. i could hear my kidneys calling for help everytime i start on a different dish. and there was a garlic overload, not that i mind. cus seriously, there's garlic in every single dishes. xiaolong will be so appalled by that place that she wont even wanna go anywhere near there.
so frankly speaking, $300 is too expensive to me, especially when it's a not-very-clean coffee shop kind of place, nvm that famous ppl all flock there to eat whenever they can.
anyway, we spent like 2hrs there and after that, we went to a temple to pray. that temple was quite unique in a way, as there were chinese, hindu and muslim gods there.
after that, we went home, and my itchy mouth decided that, "HEY! I SHOULD EAT SOME ICE CREAM!" and so, off i went to scoop myself some. HAHAHAH!
so basically, we went like $300+++ on food alone today.
there goes my 3hrs of dancing yesterday. i wonder why i'm suffering all those muscle aches for, cus i went to bust my fitness plan by piling on all these calories. i cant even pee properly, cus i cant sit down without holding onto something for support. LOL! nvm, i'm going gyming with meiqin tomorrow! YEAH!
and to end this post, i shall post something super fangirl-ish, since i KNOW i havent really been very fangirl-ish here for some time already.
