Tim Ho Wan Singapore

Took the day off and to perm hair and try Tim Ho Wan, no queue around 3 to 4pm on weekday.

Legendary char siew bun is awesome, crusty, soft and juicy.

 I never love 馬拉糕 so much, this is so fluffy light.

Osmanthus jelly, why you so pretty.

Brought the husband to brunch at Paradise Dynasty, he was amazed by how atas a dim sum place can be like.

 Nerdy birdy me

 Colorful xiao long bao. We have the original, foie gras, garlic, cheesy, ginseng, sze chuan, crab roe and truffle here!!

 This is mad love. The last time i was here i ordered 2 plates, this time with Ino i have to let him try some.

The husband need some pork bone soup ramen to curb his carbo craving.

Fresh pork chive dumpling

A Day Out with my RedTeam

A TaiTai day out with my red team ladies.

I join them at a later timing after my nap :) Apparently, these ladies have been up to alot of TaiTai business the whole morning. Some to highlight her hair, some to touch up their mani pedi works blah blah..

Lunch at Paradise dynasty at ION. Our dearest friend mistakenly ordered 100pc of xiao long bao, luckily the chef ran out of the kitchen to confirm the order with her. So embarrassing!

Cold dish, 3 eggs (century, salted and fresh eggs)

Sheng jian bao, very normal.

A healthier edition of 紅油抄手 Dumpling in hot pepper oil as they reduce the amount of red chili oil. I like this :)

Refreshing Aloe Vera dessert

Deep fried red bean dessert

Went for some more coffee, shopping and more shopping for autumn clothes for CY Frankfurt business trip.

Bought a pair of Schu under 50% discount, paid $29.90 after the price cut

I am a green freak and love that distinctive shades of green. No to mention the white lining across are pop-up 3d!! Adorable :)

One thing to mention, ZARA autumn series is awesome chio! have anyone been there yet!?

Dinner at Su Korean restaurant basement one of Far East

How not to have alcohol with CY, though i didn't really like Soju.

We ordered their set meal for 2 consisting of BBQ chicken and beef and kimchi soup. On top of that, we added one more seafood pancake. Our ladies request the chef to BBQ for us thus our BBQ chicken arrived in hot plate..

Super shiok sambal chili with generous amount of "heibi" (dried shrimps) in it.

Mexico baked custard bun .. very similar to puoluobao

Sweet filing

Smooth century egg with lean meat congee

Another must order.. Fried banana with prawn fritter

Interesting clash of flavors between the sweet from banana and salty from prawn..

The bun that draws me back to this restaurant... Salted egg custard bun..

Salted egg custard overflow.. loves the oozing...

One minus point about The Cathay is they serve so-so Xiao long bao, har kau and siew mai... mini in size and nothing fabulous.. quite disappointing right, especially when these few dishes are the basic of dimsum culture..

Another "wow" dish from the restaurant... Vinegar pig trotter!! The husband first try on 猪脚醋, he didn't enjoy the vinegar, which is a "woohoo" for me.. Shiokness

BTW they serve pretty decent cheechongfan too.. 

Discount deals: 15% off almost all credit card with min purchase of $50 and 30% off dimsum on weekdays.. last order from dimsum was 230pm

Overall Experience: They made us fall in love with dim sum all over again...
