Brown, the colour of... ?

Brown, Black.
Colours with relation to an expression of Dullness.
But Brown to me, is a color of Joy in my expression.
The color of Chocolate - myth object of an Anti-Aphrodisiac which a takes a woman's mind off from other things and yet brings ecstasy.

layered in 55% bitter Coco powder, fluffy Mousse, airy oreo choc sponge cake, mousse, oreo choc sponge cake
= Can't stop!
i told myself,ok, im gotta try a mouthful of it, just the edge.
After the 1st scoop, i thought, hhmm.. doesn't kill to finish 1/2.
By the time i reach half mark, there is no turning back and i HAD to Race to the finishing line.
Licked my fork clean as a reward to my mind battle

Yamakawa Japanese Supermarket

Japanese Snacks- Watashi wa Aishiteru Desune!
Colourful Wrappers, fat wordings, attractive packaging Grabs my attention
Resistance is futile.
Cash strapped but unable to fight the temptation, i focused purely on the discounted items that goes at $1 or $2 per item.
Haha, all the below items were on discount.
Yamakawa Supmart puts up expiring items at a really low price.
Good for me as it is less hurting to my wallet and i'm confident it will be chomped up by the expiry date.
My Snacks Stash

Regulars of Japanese Cuisine will be familiar with Calpis.
Calpis is a renowned and commercial Yogurt.
I am a fan of Calpis, so i bought the below pack of Calpis candy which is in assortment of 4 flavours (original Calpis, Orange, Grape & Strawberry)
quite sad that it did not turn out like i wished it would. The presence of Yogurt is mild in this.
$1.00

the below snack will have u proclaiming:
Aaaahhh.... Oooo Iiiii SSsss Hhh Iii Oishi DESUYO!! (*^~^*)
It is Caramel Pudding Mochi in bottle cap size.
The Mochi skin is so soft and the Carmel filling has a Custardy sensation to it
$2.00
$2.00
2 for $1.30

$1.00 per box

the white one is White chocolate (salty flavour) yes, indeed it has a faint salty taste to it.
hhhmm.. interesting, but i still prefer my choc snacks to be Sweet

Cheng Kee Beef Kway Teow

Cheng Kee Beef Kway Teow

Location: Blk 203, Hougang St. 21

The Dry Beef Kway Teow

Served with condiments of Chinchalok and Chilli.
Sedap!~

My fave from this stall is still their Soup version.
so i ordered the below Soup Mixed beef Kway Teow


their soup is very tasty and the salted vegetable and Chinchalok brings it to a greater height.
The meat and tendons are stewed to perfect tenderness and had absorbed in the flavor of the stew.
I LOVE this beef kway teow stall.
I have tried several "famous" ones including the 1 in Ang Mo Kio and Toa Payoh
Nothing beats this, except for maybe the one in Old Airport road (which is too far and inconvenient for me)

I do not have much to say except "try it!" and you will know what i am experiencing.


PS: U may like to try out the Rojak in the same coffeeshop too.
Quite good
ingredients- Starfruit, green apple, raw mango, jellyfish, you tiao, tulip, Jambu, cucumber, etc.. Not that cheap though, starting price at $3.50 (if im not wrong) but worth a try to share amoungst your friends.

Icekimo

Icekimo
8 Sin Ming Road
#01-03 Sin Ming Centre

Ice-cream is my Joy-Food of all time.
besides Udders, this is the 1 other place which i hang-out in.
It is just 10 mins walk away from my office.
Not crowded, making it a nice place to just relax and sit back with friends or colleagues to chat and enjoy good ice-cream in a comfy air-conditioned environment.
It's my kind of place.
It may not be THE BEST, but will be ranked 3rd on my list after Island Creamery and Udders. I feel that it is good enough. It is also cheaper in comparison.

simple, minimalist decor


Tiramisu ice-cream on Waffle
their waffle is the crispier kind and quite light. I enjoyed it =)


the below is called VERY DURIAN where the fresh durian flesh in "Kiap" in between the waffle and topped with a Scoop of Durian Ice-cream.
Wow! Indeed VERY Duriany!
Even if the Durian ice-cream do not satisfy you, im sure the durian flesh will add marks to the lacking areas.
Overall a balanced Durian dish. Frankly speaking, the durian ice-cream is not that strong in flavour, but it gives a balance to the strong Pow Wow Durian flesh.
So i would stil give this dish a passing mark and worth trying if you like Durians
