CRAB FEAST (:
yesterday was a great day. firstly, i watched bu neng shuo de mi mi. even though this is jay's first attempt, the show is rly good. it has a good plot, and jay pays attention to lots of details in the show, with those little snippets that make u go awwww. (: one eg is the scene where gui lun mei asks jay why he plays piano with only one hand. and he replied: becos i want to hold your hand with the other. (:
there were also many cool piano playing scenes in the show, esp the piano battle. if u dont like the plot, ull at least like the piano playing (: overall i give this simple but beautiful love story a 4/5!
in the afternoon, went to popular to chck out some txts and saw this huge tower in j8 that was entirely made up of jacobs biscuits. haha. took a pic of it but is too lazee to upload :P but its rly impressive. whoever did that must have spent ALOT of effort! aft that
sheenies parents picked me up and drove us to the shop where we were gg to hav our crab feast! yummie. was rly looking fwd to eating crabs! we initially wanted to go east coast for our feast, but due to a change in plans, we changed to this stall which we found on a food blog. the crabs looked really good on the blog, so we decided to give it a try (:
ordered the crab tang hoon first. when it arrived, we tried the tang hoon and WOAH. it tasted different from the normal bee hoon kind of noodles cos it was thicker and more springy. plus u could really taste the crab in the tang hoon itself! eating that alone was satisfying enuff!
then we moved on to the crabs. WOAH (: they were marvellous loh. did i mention? we had 2 full crabs for the tang hoon! hehhs.
sheenie had much difficulty breaking the shells and legs of the crabs at first, and i realised i could acherli break them quite easily! shows ive been training rly hard in army huh ;) but she eventually got the hang of how to do it anw, and we had an enjoyable time fishing out the crab meat from the various crab joints with our chopsticks (:
after the crab tang hoon, we were still quite hungrie, so we decided to order another crab dish (: we decided on black pepper crabs. OMG. mentioning the black pepper crab alone is alr making my mouth water loh. anw, the black pepper crab isnt officially on the menu but the guy tried to make it for us anw. basically over there, u can request for whatever dishes u feel like eating, and the guy will try to satisfy ur requests (:
back to the black pepper crabs. heres a pic of it:
ok the pic is a bit blur cos by then time we ordered our 2nd plate of crabs, our hands were quite dirty alr and
sheenie was unable to take a good pic of it. hehhs. the guy was quite surprised when we ordered another crab dish anw cos we alr had 2 crabs :o haha bet he wasnt expecting us to eat so many crabs at one go :P
the first thing i tried when the black pepper crabs arrived was the sauce. the sauce is really good loh, and that was the main highlight of that dish. so we continued feasting on our 2nd plate of crabs, dipping the crab meat into the nice black pepper sauce (:
hehhs. by the time we finished the crabs, we were rly satisfied (: i was alr quite full but
sheenie was still a little hungrie and wanted to try the butter prawns so i went to ask anyway. and OMG the guy was so honest lah. he acherli told me that the prawns werent tt fresh and told me to make a call to place an order the nxt time i come so he can prepare fresher ingredients. so we didnt order the prawns in the end. haha. anw by then i can imagine myself looking rly dirty and messy HAHA. plus i wore a white shirt so it was stained quite a bit. bleahh. ): i shall rmb not to wear a white shirt when i go to eat crabs nxt time (:
aft the meal,
sheenies parents picked us up again.
sheenies mum wanted to giv me an ice cream treat b4 i leave spore, but i was rly full so we didnt have the ice cream in the end. but its rly nice of her to offer anw :D yayy. was rly pleased when i reached home. this will def be one of the best meals ill hav b4 leaving spore. (: (: (: i want to go there again, esp since its so near to my aunts home. even tho its my EVIL aunts home. :S
on a random note, heard
chong qing on 933 telling ppl to go watch this video on youtube which features him and
jiahui singing a revamped version of the national day song. its rly funny so if u r bored, do try: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=02uu0KSFRkY (:
