Porridge Aint for Sick People!!!
At such, it would give you an impression that porridge are meant for sick people!!! Im not a big fan of "beh"!!!
But... thats not the way anymore!!! Went to a porridge buffet at Joaqium today and thats completely change my opinion of porridge.
The entire buffet only costs $9.80!!! yes!!! where on earth can you find a buffet thats cost below $10.
Choices wise are average with the selection of those typical condiments like fermented beancurb to hot selection dishes like sambal fish, pig trotters to mee soto and chicken rice. One thing that I must highlight was their porridge. We're given not one, not two but three types of porridges to taste... and their pumpkin porridge taste heavenly!!!
Aside from that, there's a dessert section for you to end your meal with a sweet smile.
Conclusion: Given the price of $9.80, What more can I asked for. It was indeed an "eye-opening" experience for me to start falling in love with porridge again. (erm... not those typical plain porridge). I'd definitely come back for more...:D

I was wondering where to get a nice internaltional buffet and its easy on your pocket. And its happened to find out that Window on the Park cafe restaurant at Holiday Inn (Orchard) was having a 1 for 1 for all UOB member. So without a-do, all e hungry boyboy n galgal give it a try:)
The hotel itself is quite old or u can put it as authentic!!! The restaurant is located at level 2. We were being greeted and guided by their friendly staffs. Restaurant itself was relatively quite small, ambience is more to old euporean style. And war began:
I am happy with their laksa. In addition, you must prepare on your own, which mean you have to cook by yourself. Gravy was rich in flavor and yet not comply. I had 3 serving for this devil.
Main course station wise is average. Nothing really stood out from the crowd. Quite lame to see potatoes wedges are being serve in buffet. haha. . . maybe it was catered for the kids.
Assorted Dessert!!!
It took me almost two and a half hour to complete all their stations. You may have a cup of english tea(aid for digestion) after you have complete your meal. Selection wise was average. Staffs are friendly and will attend to you regularly. Price wise is reasonable as we went for their promotion. but with a price tag of $60++ per pax, I think somewhere else may serve better qualities and quatitites.:)
Verdict: 3 out of 5 Stars!!!

Initially wanted to kill my carved at Punggol Nasi Lemak, but I was horrified by the superb long queue. . . very the extreme!!!
And we happened to pass by this authentic old coffee shop. . . Saw these Ngoh Hiang's stall that selling all sort of biting snacks n Ngoh Hiang!!! So without hesitation, we ordered. . .
Variety wise is not much as compare to others stalls but the auntie recommend us to try their pig liver roll, prawn cracker and tau kua!!!
Verdict: Not bad!!! Love their Tau Kua!!! though nothing fanciful about it, but i like the plainest n softness of these little creature. . . Prawn Cracker was okay, abit oily. . . n the pig liver was quite tough, but flavourful. It's not a bad alternative for supper!!!
Address: Upper Serangoon Road, beside Kovan MRT Station.

STICKY RICE!!!
Heard lots of comments about these mall, therefore, managed to squeezzze a little of my time and headed down to the west!!!
The mall was pathetic QUIET!!! yesh!!! I'm shocked!!! Variety wise, not much different from any of the sub-urban mall.
Anyway, stomach kept "rolling" up n down. . . so we've managed to settle our dinner at one of the Thai Restaurant;
Sticky Rice!!!
Initially my thought was "OMG!!! Think we have enter to the wrong restuarant!!!", cause the restaurant was damn empty!!!
Here are some of the items that was recommended by their staff:
Another Must TRY dish!!! Their Green Curry has added with a little twist. They are spicy instead of sweet!!! Generous with ingredient. It goes well with rice!!!
3. Pineapple Fried Rice:
A more fusion style of Pineapple rice. Generous ingredients, rice is more sticky(no wonder its call Sticky Rice), flavourful, not bad!!!
4. Rice Noodles with Seafoods(Phai Dai):
Can you see the rice noodles??? It was buried by those ingredients!!! Silky and smooth noodles, flavourful seasoning. Not bad!!!
5. Red Ruby Dessert:
It taste abit like baudung with coconut milk. Chestnut was well-coated, refreshing and it's not very sweet!!! A good dessert to end your meal:D
Verdict: Sticky Rice has added a little twist to those typical Thai dishes. A fusion style presentation. Serving wise was a little bit small, but its okay to share for 2pax. Reasonable price. Environment was cosy and quiet.
Address: Sticky Rice, Clementi Mall, B2
