A Sunny Day

This was the week after the long weekend (old story, sorry).

The day before, I closed my eating window at 2:30 pm. I was feeling very full (after breakfast and lunch).

The next morning I was hungry. So I waited to eat breakfast just before picking up mum's lunch.


Since 282 Mixed Rice is the only chap fan stall that opens early, that's where I went again.


I got me four items - mustard greens (beautifully green with loads of garlic), sweet and sour tofu, marmite chicken and one (over) braised egg.

The egg unfortunately had a leathery texture but it tasted all right. Everything else tasted very good. I did not get a drink.


On the way to Restoran 1111 I came upon the inflatable "pastry chef" (hah..hah..) outside Butter & Olive.


The poor "chef" was tilted and looked like he was going to fall down. This "chef" has since been decommisoned.


Outside Soylab I saw these lovely potted plants.


At DJ, outside a coffee shop I saw these lovely flowers. If I am not wrong, these are Impatiens.

I also had these in my garden long ago but my Impatiens died from over watering.

That's the mistake I always make. My plants die not from neglect but from over hydration LOL!


Chiang Heng Jewellery has opened for business. I may not be able to afford diamonds, pearls or gold but I can afford to eat at Red Kettle. That is a blessing! Stomach is m0re important than all that sparkly stuff heh...heh...


The restaurant was in full swing and I reckon most people were still on leave and took the opportunity to have a nice holiday lunch.


I had the Chargrilled Fish again.

This dish looked different from how it was plated the last time. And the portion of fish was smaller too >.<


It was as delicious as the last time.


Then I went for a walk. Can you see the three window cleaners?


Back at The Starling I saw this structure which looked like a bird's nest with three blue eggs inside.


There was a plaque with a fun fact about Starlings.


On my way out from the mall, I saw this kiosk promoting Enercal. My late dad was recommended this nutrition drink after his surgery back in 2001.

  2. Dear PH, the big plant ðŸŠī with the red and green 💚 stalks, with the speckles is supposedly called Bromeliad, one of my fellow bloggers mentioned this on my last post.

  3. Ya, your chargrilled fish does look a bit different...and a smaller portion! That's why it's great to have a blog where the food is documented...lol! What is that pile of mushy stuff at the side? P/S: Ooo...I absolutely love jewellery...and wish that I could afford to buy more! ;)

  6. I have eaten braised eggs that felt leathery before. I think they have been braised for far too long. Those specialty dark eggs from Taiwan, tamsui also have these texture. Tourists go there and buy them as souvenirs to eat. I think the supermarkets here also sell these leathery dark eggs that they call iron eggs in the Taiwan goods section.
