Marutai Kagoshima Kurobuta Tonkotsu Ramen ( Instant Noodles ) マルタイ 鹿児島 黒豚とんこつラーメン

One of my new favourite Japanese instant ramen, very expensive, around $5 or so, but the taste is so power!!! Noodles texture are very different, and has a freshly-made taste... The soup seems very "pork-creamy" and savoury taste enhanced with the browned green onion (?) bits... I added some extra ingredients to have a more complete meal... Very recommended...

A clip of it as my lunch today...

Paldo - Jja Jang Men ( Chajang Noodle ) Instant Noodles

Opps, not the Kang Shi Fu one that I anticipated but this is also good!!!! Paldo - Jja Jang Men ( Chajang Noodle ) Instant Noodles, which I thought of trying since I can't seem to find the old one I am used to eating (think it is the Samyang one)... Surprisingly nice! It is slightly different from the Chacharoni I used to buy. The sauce taste is actually not so offensive and more smoothing than the Samyang one. Forgotten the price, hehehe...

Here's a clip on my cooking process...

Sigh... heart cannot bear to see you going but still have to say goodbye to you, hope to meet again in future !!! =)  All the best in ur future endeavors! =)

p.s. Food and events blogging will resume soon... Next instant noodles: Kang Shi Fu (I think)...

Today's Brunch at Encik Tan @ Bedok Mall...

And I chose this chicken cutlet Hainanese curry rice today as I had not eaten this for some visits already... Absolutely fantastic! The chicken cutlet is crisp on the outside and tender on the inside, with the seasoning prior to the frying clearly distinguishable. The vegetables is also nice and natural-sweet of it can be tasted. Curry sauce and lor-sauce is good too. Only nitpick will be the rice too soft (perhaps too much water added) and the egg can be a little less cooked to have the runny egg yolk... anyway, well worth the $4.30...


My father had his usual fried fish Hainanese curry rice, as he still feels the piece of fried fresh fish alone is worth the $5... I agree totally...


My mum had wanted to order the fish beehoon soup but was told that the fish was not ready (i.e. not yet fried), so she ordered the laksa, which is also 1 of our favourites there... The laksa broth is superbly good, but she has to reduces the intake of the laksa broth for a healthier diet.. $4 is well worth too!!!


My father and I also had a bowl of the chendol, which I still feel the big red kidney beans are 2 thumbs up... Very happy brunch...

Myojo Ippeichan Yomise No Yakisoba 明星 一平ちゃん夜店の焼そば ( Japanese Style Instant Noodles with Mayonnaise )

This is made in Japan, hence the higher price of about $3.60 (I think) in NTUC Fairprice, which in Japan is selling for about SGD2.20 only... sigh.. but the portion of noodles is bigger than most similar instant cup/bowl noodles, and more vegetables. Taste is good!!!! Noddles are good too!!! Should have added in the packet of powder after stirring the noodles and sauce... Will I buy it again? Probably, but the high price will be the big deterring factor...

Wings Food Mie Sedaap Instant Cup Mi Goreng

Loved this cup noodles, though the quality can be slightly inconsistent... Still, for (normally) 80 cents (i.e. SGD 0.80), it is a quick, cheap and good dry instant noodles to ease the craving for munching... Especially like the big piece of "something-ingredient" inside the vegetable pack... Seem now NTUC and some small mini-marts are also starting to sell this type... nice....

Toy Carnival and Bot Fest 2017 at National Design Centre

Nice event, though it still feels like a flea market, not that I am complaining ... and I only saw 2 cosplayers ( Kamen Rider Kuuga and MMPR Blue), which was much much lesser than what I saw a few years ago when held at SAM... Also did not attend the 3rd party TF panels, as that is not my main purpose of going there... Anyway, saw a young fashion/graphic(??) designer promoting her works with pride and passion, think she is from InkInk Collectibles, and that sort of makes me think whether I am still passionate of my job or not... hmmm... I think I still am, at least till this year, hahahaha... Let the pictures do the talking!!!
