My Ramblings...

Would love to try more of their dishes if we aren't having the $25 bucks chicken rice for dinner.

Nevertheless, will try their other food another time!!

Tai Dong Teochew Braised Duck Rice

This place is very crowded during lunch time... Business is very good and the ducks typically get sold out by lunch time.

Rice

Cabbage - Soft and tasty. Love this dish despite being a non-veggie lover...

Chilli sauce

Braised peanuts

Duck rice

The pricing is reasonable and the food is delicious.
Definitely worth the visit.

Went to the Singapore Mariners Club for dinner.

The Club provides accomodation for seafarers. They offer rooms at reasonable prices, entertainment (i.e. Jackpot machinese), restaurant with cheap set lunches etc.

Table setting - Reminds me of Jack's place

My Ramblings...



The pricing of the food was reasonable.

However, as for the parking, was a bit shocked that one has to call the number before he/she is able to enter the carpark. The same goes when one leaves the place. A bit too unbelievable in this era. I guess the carpark utilization have to be very low.

Lunch at Raffles Place - Dallas Restaurant

We went for a 2 course set lunch at $18++. They are having a 4 for the price of 3 promotion for Citibank cardholders.

Ordered the Baby Back Pork Ribs (Berri)

Poached Salmon

Linguine with Portobello Mushrooms

Dessert - Warm Chocolate Brownie

Paired with a cup of Coffee

My Ramblings...

I love this place. The ambience is great. A nice place to spend a relaxing afternoon.

Dim Sum at Fortunate Restaurant

Qing Ming is the day where descendants are to pay respect to their ancestors.

In past, most people will go to the cemetery to visit their ancestors during Qing Ming period, i.e. clear the weeds, burn incense etc.

In Singapore, most people will cremate the deceased bodies and store them in the columbarium instead as land is quite limited. Any existing cemeteries will be exhumed in phases over the next few years.

Went to Fortunate for lunch after paying respects to my ancestors...

Fried Carrot Cake

Paper wrapped chicken

Egg Tarts

Baked BBQ Pastries

Fried Dumpling

Chee Cheong Fun

Peking Duck









Siew Mai



Scallop dumplings



Char Siew Bun

Pig Trotters with vinegar - This dish is a supposedly for women as it is very nutritious

My Ramblings...

I was quite impressed with the food as it turns out better than the branches at Food Republic (a popular food centre that can be found in Wisma and Suntec).

The ambiance here is very nostalgic as well. Typical HK dim sum style where trays of dim sum were being pushed around and one can order then and there.
