Fried Ice-Cream at Green Ba Vegetarian Restaurant

I was excited to see fried ice-cream and avocado pasta available at Green Ba restaurant so I went to try. Inside the fried dough is vanilla ice-cream with chocolate chips and mango. I find the fried dough quite thick compared to another fried ice-cream at other restaurant in Chinatown near Bukit Pasoh area. 

If you love avocado, then you won't dislike the avocado pasta with corn and tomato. I must say avocado pasta is quite an acquired taste. At least the pasta is creamy rich with avocado with small pieces of avocado.

Nearby MRT: Esplanade and Cityhall MRT
 Avocado pasta. I think they can still improve on the taste.

Merry Christmas 2019

To all my friends especially my Christian friends, I wish you Merry Christmas! 
Even though my family and I are not Christian, we like to buy a Christmas log cake and eat and just rest at home in this public holiday in Singapore. When I was younger, we would go to Orchard Road to see the Christmas lighting decorations. Now, I rather stay at home and read books or newspapers and not jostle in the crowded Orchard road street. 

Happy holiday to everyone!

My brother brought a Christmas log cake this year.

Singing at Manekineko

During my free time, I enjoy singing. Sometimes I sing with my friend or cousins. If I want to sing to my heart content, I will sing alone.

If I sing alone, I will go to Manekineko at Tampines 1 shopping mall. During off-peak hours, I only pay $10.00 for 2 hours singing session which also includes unlimited free drinks like coffee, green tea latte, soft drinks and snacks. If I sing with my friend or cousins, then we will sing at TeoHeng as they charge based on room size. If you want to sing alone, Manekineko is more worth it.
                                                 I love this cheery bright room!

Rainy Cool Season in Singapore

It has been raining for the past few days and temperature has now dropped to about 22 to 25 degrees Celsius in Singapore. I love cool weather as it also helps us to save electricity. I don't switch on the fan these past few nights.

My First Watercolour Paint

I'm always inspired to create my own arts after viewing arts exhibition. I decided to start watercolour paint after seeing painting by Mr Lim Cheng Hoe at National Gallery in Singapore. I recently brought a watercolour guide book and followed it. Below is completed watercolour paint using a combination of watercolour pencil and paint.

Cheese Raclette at Tampines Century Square

I was delighted to find cheese raclette at Tampines Century Square basement 1. You can see the stall near the escalator. I opted for Raclette Classic with potato only at $5.80. However I'm not sure if this chesse is vegetarian or not since most cheese are made with animal rennet. I hope they replace all animal rennet with vegetarian rennet.  

The potato is really tasty with spices and herbs with melted cheese. It is best to eat this dish once its served.
