One of the very few all women fitness club in town, I am AMORE fitness club's loyal fan.
I love the fact that it is a ALL WOMAN and Only WOMAN fitness club. Talk about Girl POWER.....
There are various classes available and usually in smaller groups. I like the attention of the trainers and the company of other women. WHen I am there, i need not worry how i look and am more focus on building my physique.
The classes that i enjoy most is pilates and hip hop. The gym is also fabulous. With many state of the art equipments available and a cosy changing and shower room. When i am doing the treadmill, i get a good view of the shoppers below. It reminds me of the calories i ingest and makes me more determined in burning them.
How do we know if we ordered a good bowl of wanton noodles. It depends on the ingredients, the texture of the noodles, black sauce and wanton...
Pontian wanton noodles is one of the best i had in singapore. It taste similar to the ones i like in KL. It is good because:
Firstly the char siew is of a good texture, not too hard or soft and the skin of the charsiew is mirinated with a good mixture of spices on a good source of fresh pork. The selection of choice meat is one that is lean with 30% of fats to keep the meat moist.
Secondly the noodles are cooked in such a way that it is chewy to bite yet not soggy. It is must be QQ to bite yet not too hard to swallow. The sauce is one that is of a good mixture of dark soya sauce with other type so sauces. It must be black with a little charred taste yet not too salty.
Third, the wanton must be one that contained just enough filling. The skin must be thin and smooth and the fillings marinated to perfection...
Pontian wanton noodles possesses all these criterias and it is hard to come by such a good stall.
Definitely a must try for all the food lovers out there.......
It was another rainy weekday afternoon and I had just emerged victorious from another massive jam on the Sheares Bridge. I suddenly have cravings for hot lce Lemon Tea.
So....... Kampong Glam Cafe... here i come.......
Parking is a breeze, thats if you have a real good luck, but because it was rainy, I found a good lot nearby the cafe almost immediately. Usually that place is cramp during lunch hours as the white collars working in offices nearby will charge at that store for their Lunch Kills....
It was a good rainy afternoon indeed. When i reached there, most of the food are still available. Immediately i ordered... Chilli Fish, Fried Chicken Wings, Some Dao Guar Long bean in chilli, tahu goreng, potato patty, curry chicken and rice. I am not a spicy eater... actually matter of fact i take Ketchup with everything.... As i always think that my lips will swell when i take spicy food. Curry to me is never a spicy food. I love especially the exotic taste of their curry and the chilli fish is so tasty. It is not too hot really and my lips didn't swell... The dishes were prepared with fresh ingredients and generous amounts of spices. You must drizzle more curry sauce on your rice as it is very very yummy... The FRIED CHICKEN was crispy on the outside and Very JUICY on the INSIDE.. I love the skin best, as it is well miranated but not too salty or oily.
Besides Rice dishes, noodle dishes, GADO GADO and Etc... They also have creative beverages. The hot ice lemon tea is wonderful to have after meals or even before. The fabulous aroma of the good grade tea leaves with a squash of lime could really relieve bloated stomach and helps in PERKING you up. The other beverage I like is Teh with Ginger. I love the smooth taste of the tea with a tinge of ginger that helps to cool the throat and soothe my stomach.
THey have traditional cakes, Kuehs and snacks served at the cheery transparent show box. They are nice, moist and soft with rich flavours of coconut, gula melaka and tapioca... There are various varieties available to go with the beverages....
If you are feeling bored and you are living in the west or south western area, you can always pop by holland village. It is a more happening place for the westies.... thats if you do not want to drop by town as there are not much choices besides great world city or VIVO city which is already nearby town.
There are many cafes, restaurants and food joints in holland village but the one i loved most is TCC. Perhaps its because of the good experience i had with the other branches of TCCs in town that i would naturally choose to go into TCC.
I like this joint partly because of the comfy seats. They have these especially elevated sits that give me privacy and much comfort. I used to laze my afternoons there after classes while i was in UNI.
I personally love the wedges with spicy cheese dip for snack. They come in pretty huge portions and remains delicious even when it turns cold. Generous cheese dips is great for a cheesy me..... I once gathered with my classmates there playing uno stacko and we could squeeze all 8 of us in one table. I also love the wonderful sandwiches they serve especially the one with slices of beef.
It comes with delicious PAPADAM crackers and yummy side veg with sweet wine vinegratte sauce. The portion is quite generous and it is definitely YUMMY....
Really a must go HANG OUT place......
Usually they are open till wee hours of the morning on eve of weekends and eve of holidays. If you like a good healthy mid night snack, you might want to drop by TCC. Or perhaps hangout with your friends for a good chat when you don't feel like hitting the pillows early.
I am a fan of TCC.... I simply love the nice comfy seats and warm ambience. Every TCC seemed like a sanctuary for me to spend a lazy evening chatting with my friends or simply just read a book. I simply love the whole feel of this place.
Not to forget the great selections of beverages they have. I am always amazed by the new creations like the NUTELLO... which is a shot of expresso with nutella smeared all over this nice oval short glass... Its drives you NUTS.... with its nutty taste and mind you.. this innocent looking beverage is simply delectable. IF you are a chocolate lover, this is the one drink for you. It combines the beautiful smooth nutella chocolate spread with potent expresso... The provide a small spoon for you to nibble and scrape the chocolate. Really fun and unique.
Bursting flavours from two ends of the world. Your taste buds will be so amazed by the bitterness of the premium coffee and the sweet sweet chocolate spread.
