A Gastronomic Adventure..

Seems like it's been some time since I cam-whored.. Heehee

Today is Cai's last day in Sg before he leaves for his BKK trip tomorrow.
Met him at Lot1 then we cabbed to Esplanade for dinner

Here we are.. at No Signboard Seafood.

I'm really big on teas.
Flower teas, chinese teas, english teas, every kind of tea is my cup of tea! =D

Stir-fried scallops with broccoli.
Love the big & juicy scallops.
The broccoli on the other hand, was disappointing, it wasn't soft and fragrant enough.
They could have added some sauce to it to give it more flavour.

Japanese style beancurd. Our favourite dish for the day.
The beancurd costs $4 per piece, but it's definitely worth every penny.

There are two kinds of tofu here.
Only difference was that one had mushrooms and the other had prawns.

This is the interior.
It's silky smooth and very flavourful.
The harmonious combination of the scallops, mushrooms, spring onions, and salted fish just screams OISHI!!!

Can you see the juice inside?
Gosh, I'm falling in love with it all over again.

An extra layer of egg beneath the beancurds.
It is EVEN SILKIER than tau hway.
But it's also very oily, if you noticed the oil blobs in the picture earlier on.

Ordered a medium Sri Lankan crab.
Cai originally wanted to order 2, thank goodness I stopped him.
This portion was already a lot!

I still prefer the Chilli crabs that my Ah Ma cooks.
Her chilli gravy is way creamier and flavourful, without being overly spicy.

The gravy here was slightly watered down and they definitely used too many eggs.
Despite it being very eggy, it still lacks the punch of flavour.
Probably didn't add enough ketchup.

And it sure was spicy!
Tears were already brimming in my eyes at my first piece.

Chilli crabs are not complete w/o these cute little fried mantous! =D

After dinner, we went to search for some desserts to fill our stomachs with..
and we came across this really cute art gallery filled with pictures of monks.

Super cute luh.
Monk you thought?

Wrong!
Read this.
"Bidha, 75 year-old nun"

Walked to Marina Square but could not find anything nice to eat.
So we ended up at Esplanade again.
Haagen Dazs, here we come =)

Was craving for ice cream with waffles..
Hence, we ordered a 3 scoop w/ waffles.

From left: Tiramisu, Choc Choc Chip and Summer Berries something (forgot)

We weren't expecting an outstanding piece of waffle, and certainly not one this tiny too.
And this miniscule piece of a waffle costs another $5.
Heck!

The ice cream was great. Choc choc chip outdid itself, as usual.
Tiramisu flavour was filled with pieces of soft cookies, was great too.
The berries-flavoured one had a tangy taste to it, contained real berries in it and tasted a little like jam.
We liked it anyway =)
