Eat Out - San Churro

Day 635

Winter is totally messing up my plan to lose weight! *argh* I blame it on the cold that's making me eat more than usual. 4 times a week at the gym is not enough for me to lose any weight. Why? Why? Why? Is it because I haven't been using my brain? Not enough activities to burn calories? I've been avoiding carbs but the weight is not dropping. *sigh* The first thing I'm going to do when I get back to SG is to get a Personal Trainer and see a dietician! 

Dessert after dinner is such a bad bad bad idea....*devil won again*

Eat Out - Breizoz French Creperie

Day 634


Winter is the best time to have Korean BBQ. Everyone huddle around the hot stove to cook and eat the smoky hot grilled meat right off the grill. SHIOK! Jiaqi and Emily have been raving about Hwaro after their first visit but I found the food to be average. It's one of those places you visit when you are in the mood to splurge but the girls certainly love it to bits. The highlight of the night was our dessert at Breizoz French Creperie. Thin, crisp, sweet and oooooooh-sooooo-sinful! I want more, more, MORE!

The BEST curry to date! 
Tender and juicy chicken cooked in authentic spices.
 The curry was bursting with flavour and oh-so-yummmmmm!

We are so going back for its curry and roti. *4 thumbs up*

Eat Out - Madame Sousou

Day 625


Happy Birthday to Mr Tan's "long-lost" sister (she's Tan Chia Chee and he's Tan Chia Loong) who's also his colleague, our neighbour and the hottest girl in our group (the guys in office can't stop drooling over her)!

Happy Birthday to Jenny - our fave Hongkonger who's witty, full of laughs and loves food as much as we do!


Madame Sousou - seriously we're never going back. We spent 3/4 of our time in the restaurant waiting for our food when the place is only half-filled. If not for the fact that we are there to celebrate the girls' birthdays, we would have left. Portions were small, prices were high and they taste average. Everyone grew so tired of waiting that we almost fell asleep at the table. It's torture to wait so long for your food when ur tummy is screaming for food! Staff were friendly but service was not prompt. Our glasses were always empty and we had to ask for refills twice. The shock came when we were told it would cost $10 per pax if we wanted to eat the cake in the restaurant. It's not an extra $10 but $10 per pax!! WTF!?!?! Never again!

Mama Goh, you broke my heart!

Day 621

We always say that in the eyes of every parent, their child is always the most handsome or the prettiest or the smartest. In essence, the BEST. Except for Mama Goh. Mom, you totally broke my heart last night! :P

Eat Out - Big Boy BBQ

Day 620

Ribs, ribs, ribs...I can have you for breakfast, lunch and dinner if you are saucy, tender and yummilicious. Sadly, I haven't been able to find them anymore. The standard at Meat & Wine has dropped drastically (it's no longer my fave), the ones at Squires Loft and City Grill Room failed to impress and the ones at TGIF's are too dry. My search for yummilicious ribs led me to Big Boy BBQ. Sadly, it didn't make the cut either.


Tonight's menu
Pulled lamb shoulder burger
BBQ chicken wings
1/2 rack BBQ pork ribs
Onion rings
Coleslaw
Garden salad

The good: BBQ chicken wings and onion rings
Chicken wings were flavouful, tender and juicy. Onion rings weren't as good as the ones at Meat & Wine but they weren't oily and very addictive! 


The ok: BBQ pork ribs and garden salad
Some of the ribs were burnt and the meat was dry and tough. But other than these burnt parts, the rest were ok so it's abit of hit and miss. For $29, I was expecting something better. Nothing special about the garden salad but it's a good side to have while I dig into the meat pile.


The bad: Pulled lamb shoulder burger and coleslaw
Mr Tan had the lamb burger and didn't like it. The coleslaw was too sour for our liking and it was pretty much untouched after our first bite.


Saucy, smokey, yummilicious ribs...I want YOU! WHERE ARE YOU??

Relaxing long weekend

Day 613 - 615

No planned routes, no planned destinations, no planned itinerary.
Just drive and stop as and when we feel like it. 
随性一点儿,跟着感觉走。。。
