CNY 2013

its that time of the yr yet again.
CNY.
totally hate it.
to me its juz a stretch of boring days, staying at hm, wayang here n there.
the best part is oni eating nw. (too old to recv ang bow).
it is a ritual for my family to have awesome pork porridge w century egg and fried mee/bee hoon on the 1st day morning of CNY.

 
mum preparing condiments for the porridge
 
 this is the 3rd bowl of porridge for me (dats y abit watery liao....) w marinated pork, dried oysters, dried scallops and lots of spring onions n chilli!!!
 
 fried bee hoon. pardon me for the poor lighting.
 
 shark's fin. shhhhhh. dun tell the environmentalist......


 chef at work. i am the assistant on this very impt day.
 









 shark's fin soup w loads of crabmeat n pepper. shiok max.
 

 talking abt cny feasting. these r oni my lunch for the 1st day.
 
 nt many shops open during cny, so baby n i went to this italian bistro for lunch during the long hoilday. baked eggplant.so so la.
 our fav pizza w porcini n black truffles.
 crabmeat linguine. this is delicious. i preferred this to the one at valentino. the sauce is lighter here, but it was packed w flavours from the sea. the crabmeat is so fresh n sweet n the pasta is cooked just rite for me. the one at valentino is richer n their ingredients r more premium (they use more cheese n cream n better tomatoes). ah well. its all subjective la. both r good. but i like the flavour of this more. :)
 

 baby likes this version of tiramisu. smooth, creamy n silky. i think it lack the punch from the coffee n alcohol. so so for me.
 
 baby n i wnet to this sushi place at liang court recently to try out their sushi. good! the ingredients r fresh, n its easy on our wallets. cheap n good! (forget ita****, it sux already). these oysters a so fresh n sweet. left a smile on my face after i slurp them into my semi-full stomach. yumz.


 this is a freaky looking sushi. sakura shrimps. v v v fresh n sweet. too fresh for baby. i ate 2 of this at one go. the freshness of the shrimps burst into my mouth. i had a sea of baby prawns swimming in my mouth.
 
the feasting season is yet to b over.
we will have loads of gatherings coming up.
control control. everything is under control.
i hope.
