Never to visit Crystal Jade Restaurant at Plaza Singapura

bad experience at crystal jade plaza singapura
I have bad impression on this chain restaurant few years back when I knew they are over-charging for small quantity of food and since I was did not even think about eating there for years. Just today, as I was out to celebrate with my friend's mom birthday, I think I would have banned the restaurant forever from today onwards....

As usual, the dishes are in small portions, but things got worsen. The appearance is worst than normal Kopitiam and almost all are over cook, which seems like a student in a Home Economics class trying to pass his/her exams... So what does Crystal Jade  really means ? Don't they QC check their chefs before employing them ? I was not satisfied when I left the restaurant and begins to continue my dinner food hunt... a good one..

We decided to shift to Somerset 313 as some of them are going for shopping while I was looking for a good place to chill, with coffee and beer. We landed in Brotizeit and instead of ordering drinks, we ordered their signature dish as well, the Pork Knuckle. I was suppose to try it at Vivocity the previous time but they ran out of stock, but I gotten my chance to try it today. It is absolutely delicious !!

We ended early today and as usual I am back to my cozy room to start on my blogging again... Had an average day today, with a bad start at work and bad dinner, but a nice food for "dessert" and companions. Let's hope things are better tomorrow ! 頑張ります!

A Shag Day With Two Bowls of Noodles

welcome 2011
It is start of a new year but 2011 welcomed me with more shit then I could think of.. Super low morale these few days and with a bad start,will I end another year in a super low key ?Anyway, still manage to meet up Sam n Nic to compensate the day. Had one bowl of 炸酱面 with side dish Wanton Mee. Also had some 锅贴 fordessert but does not taste fresh at all .. Last but not the least, a cup of ice coffee to smoothe the oily food for my breakfast cum dinner . (forgotten I had BK for lunch). Just don't feel anything in my stomach .. Sian !

I have just shifted my food reviews to my new blog, Fooding Singapore, be sure to stay tuned !

Playing MJ three days in a row .. Shag !

I could not believe that I have been playing mahjong for 3 straight days.. Though I was planning of playing on the X'mas eve, but ended up playing on the Christmas day after I could not find a good movie to watch and on Sunday again after the attendance for Karaoke was too poor ! I think I will be stopping MJ-ing for the next coming month. It is time and money consuming.. I still got my 10 goals for year 2011 to be fulfill. Actually, after completing my 10 goals of the year, I actually still have another 10 goals which I need to fulfill.. OMG.. >. < Life is so short ... Cheers

Who Banged into my BMW ?

As usual, everyday after work I will park my car in the corner of the road. However, this "fine" morning while I was walking towards my car and I saw something different on my front bumper. Initially I thought it was just some dirt that I picked up on my way home yesterday but apparently.... not. Someone has just banged into my car ! Argh !

It is really hard to believe that someone had banged into my car parking right in front of my house ! The leftover "evidence" seems like paint from a lorry or pick-up.

The matter of fact, my anger was partial because it was a new car (less than a year), but the driver that caused the scratches did not find ways to amend his mistakes. Is it really hard to admit something you did wrongly ?

Mango Queen 芒果王后
XO 炒萝卜糕
辣味肉松烤茄子

The carrot cake was really nice in the past but I think the standard dropped quite a lot. The eggplant was a first time try, but surprising it tasted good, except that too much corn flour was used to cook the dish.

Update (7th Jan 2015)


The entire place at east coast park was closed down for revamp. Meanwhile, I have decided to separate out my food reviews to another blog, Fooding Singapore. If you are looking for other food reviews, you can try to find out more from there.
