Went to have some dessert from Blackball Singapore 黑丸嫩仙草 recently. The outlet I went was located at Bugis+. Usually, you could see a long queue there! 

Tried blackball signature icy & cold. Both tasted amazingly good! However, I preferred blackball signature cold because it tasted more authentic and flavourful. Guess I will try the warm and hot one soon!

I adore the yam ball, golden sweet potato and pearl which tasted pretty good! Chewy yet not too sweet! The grass jelly is smooth with dense texture. One great combination as a whole!

Dinner was with E35D at Arirang Korean BBQ buffet! First time visiting this restaurant. Ling booked a table for 14 and requested to have the air-conditional seats, however we are directed to the ones near the entrance. 

The food was average I thought. Not all dishes were authentic Korean cuisine. Quite affordable price if you do not mind having a normal meal there. The recommended ones will be:

- Fish in Egg Butter 
- Ginseng Chicken Soup 
- Sour Plum Drink
- Sago with watermelon

I think there are room for improvement for the service. Since we make reservations, we should get the seats when we arrived. They should provide sufficient food for all so when customer order, it is still available. Whenever there isn't any left, they should politely let us know.

After which, decided to head to kungfu paradise for dessert!


Tried the chocolate shaved ice dessert and I think it tasted pretty chocolaty - Thick and rich! The little balls gave a surprise once you chew it. And yup, the milk tea there tasted pretty good too!


Great company and catch up! (:

Tom Cruise stars in Oblivion, an original and groundbreaking cinematic event from the director of TRON: Legacy and the producer of Rise of the Planet of the Apes. On a spectacular future Earth that has evolved beyond recognition, one man's confrontation with the past will lead him on a journey of redemption and discovery as he battles to save mankind.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A good sci-fi film. It kept viewers in suspense at the beginning; as the story goes on, you get a clearer picture on the story flow. The plot was decent though I thought it could be better. Good to have chinese subtitles but where's the english one? Fantastic visual, show-casing cool technologies! There might not be many action scenes but the few one there score a rather plus point to the show!

 - Crab Roe & Pork Filling Steamed Bun-
For crab roe lovers, do not miss this dish! Each bites give you a rich 
and flavourful taste of it. 


- King Sized Nanxiang Crab Roe Steamed Soup Bun -
This is something new to me. Drinking hot soup from the straw? Nice to taste 
bits of crab meat and crab roe. Drink it carefully because it is hot!

Seems more like hor fun to me.
Tasted pretty good, not too strong for my taste bud. 
Blended well with the crab roe.

Nice catchy dish name. This meatball is rich and flavourful 
which goes well with porridge. Nice to include water-chestnut 
which give a crush to it.

#4 stop was to Siam Kitchen!




- Green Papaya Salad with Shrimp Flakes - 
It is a good appetizer to start with. Slightly spicy for me because 
I cannot really take spicy stuff.

 - Tom Yum Seafood Soup -
Tasted good with appropriate amount of sourness and 
spiciness added to the soup. There are prawns, sotong and fish in it.

- Thai Mixed Salad with NZ Beef Fillet-

 - Deep-Fried whole Garoupa Fish with Chilli Dip/Mango Sauce  -

- Siam Siam Grill Combo Platter -
The Chicken and beef is tender and juicy! 
It is good to order to share for 2 - 3!

I think this is the first time visiting the restaurant. Too bad I am not a spicy lover thus I cannot really appreciate some of the food here. Nevertheless, did like to recommend some dish here.

The recommended dishes will be: Tom Yum Seafood Soup, Siam Siam Grill Combo Platter and Grilled Honey-Marinated Boneless Chicken.
