This is my first post after the Covid. And i just wanted to document this favorite home cook so i could reference to. Here we go.

INGREDIENTS:
3 pcs Tomato, sliced
3 raw Egg, beaten
Handful of Coriander leaves, sliced

SEASONING:
3 tbsp Del monte ketchup (According to Mum, "it has to be Del Monte ketchup")
1/4 tsp Salt

STEPS:
1. Add salt to oil in heated pot, mix well.

2. Top up with diced Tomato. Mix well. Then the Tomato ketchup. Off fire, and leave this aside.

3. On a new pot, add salt to oil. Fry the beaten eggs in low fire. Top up with the fried tomato in 'STEP 2'. Mix well. Off fire and make sure not to overcook the dish.

Garnish with Coriander. Serve.

So Pho

Lemon Grass Chicken ($7.50++)

Life returns to normalcy in Singapore. The obedient citizens don their face masks and only go out for work, the supermarket or when they need to make a new pair of reading glasses, like today.

It was pretty enjoyable dining out as all restaurants practise safe distancing. There was much privacy and quiet. At So Pho, culinary was warmed and sterilised before giving to us.

Food tastes great. Not overly salted, as we have grown so used to home cooking.

Sushiro - Covid19 last dine-out

 Baby Scallop Gunkan ($3.20++), Fried Salmon Skin ($3.50++)

Seaweed Salad ($4.50++)

Sushiro, Japan's largest conveyor sushi chain opens its door at Woodland Causeway Point. It was unfortunate for them to hit this Covid wave; we thus wanted to show our support.

When we entered, their trim menu actually prompted us to leave. Haha. It looked too plain. But we decided to give it a go. And it proves too good! Order any of their seafood, and it will never go wrong; prices wise is definitely value.

The gem on our table today - Meaty fried salmon skin! and fatty salmon fish collar.

Dining out has been something we had all taken for granted, too long.

Go away Covid19! And we'll be back.

Our Favourite Pasta Place - in the mist of Covid19

Chicken Parmigiana ($11.50)

This has been our favourite haunt for a tranquil time together - at level 1, Gain City Sungei Kadut - Happy Café. Even before this Covid19 outbreak where everybody tries to dine at a secluded spot, we like coming here for a restful, air-conditioned lunch. Take your time over the 2 cashless self-ordering machine. And parking is free.

Food is prepared by a pretty Thai chef. Is affordable and generous in potion. Pictured here were some of our past orders - their aglio olio, grilled chicken and fish burger being our all-time favourite; not forgetting the iced Thai milk tea and dark kopi-o.

Wishing you good health and safety in this Covid19.

We will fight this together. And win.

Lunch @ Sakuraya Fish Mart (West Coast)

Been a long time, Sakuraya Fish Mart.

They used to be a small outlet offering raw seafood; now they are a full fledged restaurant for some nice Japanese home cooking. Nothing spectacular, but definitely soul food for me.

I recommend their value-for-money lunch menu; and you come decide if my claim is right.

d' Good Cafe - Singapore Coffee Musuem @ Jewel

Hainanese Chicken Roulade & Risotto Balls (19.50++)

Ling Cod Fish & Chips ($22++)

Cappuccino ($5.50++)

I was preoccupied with online games; yet blessed with R who sought out new places for us to visit. The Jewel is his plan for our date today. And the newly opened d' Good Café is having a 1-for-1 lunch promotion.

You tasted sincerity in their food here, it was as good as the price you would pay, even in full. The juicy chicken roulade is accompanied by a luxurious foie gras. The Ling cod fish was firm and sweet. Yes, we enjoyed our steak.

Of course you would end your meal here with a cup of their home roasted bean coffee. It is the boss's passion. Alas, we were too full for their signature cake - the little Nyonya.
