Taking some time out of my busy CNY shopping and preparation, to indulge in my favourite pastime — eating🍴.

An unexpected discovery of this delightful fried Hokkien noodles infused with rich and sweet prawn stock as well as ample wok hei [a.k.a. breath of wok] @ a Hainanese chicken rice eatery today! 🫶🏻

We also ordered plates of their signature steamed chicken. The chicken meat was tender and moist, however the jiggly gelatin-like texture layer under the skin was lacking.

Today’s ultimate comfort food — simple Teochew porridge dishes that I grew up eating. As a child growing up in the Eighties, I remember my late grandmother serving up these dishes whenever we visited them over the weekends.

These crowd favourites including steamed pomfret, steamed minced meat with salted egg and chye poh [a.k.a. preserved radish] omelette, is as close as one will get to home-cooked food. 🫶🏻

[Round II] Wow, this ondeh ondeh cake is worthy of my calories!

❤️ the soft and moist pandan sponge, oh-so-sinful thick layer of fresh cream with grated coconut, drizzled a-tad-sweet gula melaka and layered palm sugar infused cream. Love it! 🫶🏻

I’m no expert in Peranakan or Nonya cuisine, but these two classic dishes are sooooo satisfying! 👍🏻

Love these incredibly tender and flavourful, fatty braised pork belly with radish and mushrooms [a.k.a. babi pongteh] simmered in fermented soya bean paste, soya sauce and spices.

On the side, the braised chap chye served with sweet cabbages, carrots, black fungus, mushrooms and dried shrimps did not disappoint us. Mixed vegetables stewed till soft in a robust tau cheo [a.k.a. fermented soya bean paste] gravy that goes perfectly well with the blue pea rice.

Something sweet to end my meal — ondeh ondeh filled with molten palm sugar. It’s exactly how I ❤️ it — gula melaka squirting out when I bite into these soft, chewy glutinous rice balls covered with shredded coconut 🥥. 🫶🏻

My Favourite type of breakfast 🍞🧈🥚 on a Fabulous Friday!

Thick and soft white toast with a crispy finish, complement with generous spread of sweet kaya which has a robust eggy, coconut flavour and a pat of butter. Oooh, cracking the soft-boiled eggs 🥚🥚 also reveal a beautiful, bright orange egg yolk. Love it! 🫶🏻

SOI 47 serves really affordable & authentic Thai 🇹🇭 cuisine! This outlet [one and only] in the West is tucked away in a quiet neighbourhood, off the bustling Clementi town. However, it gets VERY crowded during the weekends!

We went for the crowd favourites including pineapple 🍍 fried rice, claypot tang hoon with [5 huge] prawns, stir fried chicken with basil 🌿 leaves, stuffed chicken wings, homemade prawn 🍤 cake etc.

But THE dish that steal the show [in my opinion] is their crispy golden-brown chicken 🐓 skin. It’s incredibly addictive and there’s something about the salty, savoury taste pairs with crunchy texture that got me instantly hooked. 🫶🏻

Arrived early and managed to place my order without having to stand in the queue today! ✌🏻 — Certainly, a nice start to this weekend where I will begin shopping for festive food and CNY 🧧🧧goodies.

Their signature dry version comes with a bowl of noodles and soup served separately — Springy handmade noodles mixed with slightly sweet-savoury dark soy sauce, crunchy anchovies, braised mushrooms, minced meat, meatballs and abalone slices is pure comfort and winsome! Slurp up the cloudy soup bursting with umami flavour to enjoy the full experience. 😋

Aaawwwwww, this is so sweet and thoughtful — 福 [Blessings] latte art ☕️ prepared by the cafe owner.

It has been nearly 3 years, since I last visited Time Table Cafe. This was my favourite lunch spot and the only cafe within walking distance from the previous location of my workplace.

Side note: My drink is just plain warm water. This is obviously for my mum since I’m a non-caffeine drinker.
