Kim's Family Restaurant

The Kim's Family Korean Restaurant (17 Lorong Kilat) is widely famed as the most economical and popular place for decent Korean Food in Singapore with their spread of 10-12 complimentary "side dishes"!

Are we missing out any others?

I would happily dug into these with an order of their Rice ($2+).

(Clockwise) Anchovy, Kimchi, Vegetable Pancake and Steam Fish.

You don't find this spread of serving even in high end Korean Restaurant. And they all taste flavorfully good...!

Bulgogi-Jeongshic, Lunch Special BBQ Beef set ($8+)

Just a conventional fare of stir-fried Beef slices on hot plate but in good hefty portion for one pax.

Black Bean Paste Noodle ($10+)

Saw this dish being consumed ever so often in the many Korean Drama and had always wanted to try it. The noodle was of nice texture albeit the less than expected thinned Black Bean sauce.

And what comes after you asked for your bill would be (again, on-the-house) 1 thick slice of Watermelon and a little cup of their Plum Juice... Mmmm. Pleasant.

荣兴拉面小笼包

Just opposite, facing the stall of Duck Noodle i blogged. There's this Chinese Ramen stall operated by China nationals that my Uncle had urged us to try.

We couldn't wait too. Been nursing our craving for Chinese Dumplings ever since our favourite House of Dumplings closed last year :(

Dumpling Ramen, 水饺拉面 ($3.50)

Albeit the light MSG broth, we are hand-made noodles enthusiast.

Shanghai Xiao Long Bao, 上海灌汤小笼包 ($4.50)

I hope to be back here soon. There's plenty more food i want to try! The Spicy Dumpling, Chives Pancake, Guo Tie and the many other Ramen varieties ;)

Phin's Steakhouse

Walking down Liang Seah Street lined with small eateries and restaurants, the posters from Phin's Steakhouse caught our eyes.

A 2 Set Lunch for $20 nett promotion.

Phin is non air-con, and of clean and minimum decor. I like such unpretentious food joints which promises good, honest fare ;)

Mexi Fish - fresh Dory deep fried till golden brown topped with Cheese sauce and served with Fries and side Salad.

Deep-Ocean Seafood Pasta - fresh juicy Prawn and Dory sauteed in Pasta with Tomato Sauce or Aglio Olio style.

We enjoyed our lunch that seems to impress on us that it's been painstakingly prepared by skillful chefs and assistants.

Ingredients used were definitely fresh and meticulously dish up.

No slipshod job in customary fare of Garlic Bread, Cream Chicken Soup-of-the-Day, Fries and our aromatic brewed Coffee.

A perfect quiet lunch to start the Weekend.

Copperhead Drink

Following our day out at Millenia Walk, we plan wine'ing as today a Public Holiday - it's Good Friday; a free parking day. When we don't worry about Singapore's merciless Parking Attendants issuing summons - ever so so often.

We wined with the 3 Chocolate Cakes from Bakerzin. But, Chocolate Cakes goes bettter with Red Wine, never with spicy Vodka.

Ingredients:
6 parts Ginger Ale
1.5 parts Vodka
Fill a chilled highball glass with ice cubes. Add all ingredients.

Sorry, lazy to take pics of this colorless liquid.
It's a tasty concoct, no doubt.

Animal Paper Clips!?

Am addicted to cute stationary; believe every girl does ;)

So instead of getting them flowers, woo them with pretty stationary they use everyday; with thoughts of you while mentioning to others, "It's a gift." Sweet thoughts...

Fancy D-Clips, Midori ($8.55)

Ric bought these as we roamed the newly opened PARCO at Millenia Walk Mall.

I picked the "Aquarium" themed clips instead of the "Zoo", "Dog" and "Cat". Which would you have?

Fancy Paper Clips, Midori ($8.55 per box of 30 pieces)

Of the many elaborated stationary items in NBC (level 3), my hearts goes to both the big and small Paper Clips.

I love the "Dog", "Bird" and "Horse" box of small clips. It's exquisitely pretty. Definitely a sight to enliven any boring work desk.

They're now having 10% off all items as an opening special.

Bakerzin always had nice Monthly Promotion.
