Indian Rojak

One of the dish we had at the food court in Singapore Botanic Garden is Indian Rojak. It is a Muslim-Indian dish of various vegetables and seafood deep fried in batter and they come with some sweet sauce and chilli sauce.

Green Curry Chicken Set

I had this Green Curry Chicken Rice Set for lunch at the food court. But I dont really like it cause it is not spicy enough for me despite of me adding more chilli. I think I prefer the Red Curry Chicken.

BBQ on Christmas Eve

This post is specially for JF. Thank you JF for the BBQ invite. We enjoyed so much. But sorry I enjoyed the food so much that I forgot to take photos of the curry vegetables, kueh pie tee (top hat), fried rice, fried mee hoon.....lol.I think it is a wonderful idea to order from BBQ wholesale , their BBQ food are at reasonable price and the food are tasty and they delivered to the chalets, saving us all the hard work. The next time I have a BBQ, I would do same but I will cook the curry myself...hahaha and sis can fried meehoon and cooked glutinous rice.This gathering bring back memories of our childhood and thank you for being a wonderful part of my childhood. We grew up together as playmates and remember those times we played at the beach, catching, hide and seek, it was enjoyable even without computers during those times.And also remember the times our parents took us on long bus trips to West Malaysia. Maybe when we reached our golden age, we can take long bus trips to West Malaysia again with our families and you can still put those snakes over your shoulders at snake temple in Penang....lol

Nyonya and Baba Restaurant at Vivo City

Peranakan are descendants of the very early Chinese immigrants who adopted the Malay customs partially.I love peranakan cuisine which are a mixture of chinese, malay and others influences. Their food are not spicy at all. There is this nyonya restaurant called Nyonya and Baba at Vivo City which has some nice nyonya food.

Photo taken from restaurant wall. A typical baba nyonya wedding.

One of the popular nyonya dish is the chap chye.

This is one of the restaurant's signature dish, Ayam Buah Keluak. Buah Keluak is mixed with shrimp to induce a tinge of sweetness while reducing its bitter taste. Ayam means chicken and Buah Keluak is the black kind of nut. You need to dig into the nut to eat the meat just like you eat snails.

Otak Otak - is not spicy and tasted very nice.

Curry fish head - not spicy while those sold in Indian Restaurants are more spicy. I prefer it to be more spicy but is suitable for those who do not like spicy food.

The Ngor Hiang were fried to a golden-brown with spiced pork and water chestnuts. I like this dish it is crunchy and tasty.
