Food Review: Tomyum Kungfu @ Serangoon Garden

A simple dinner with Jax and Jasmine at tomyum kungfu. We went to serangoon garden outlets as it was more convenient for all of us. Mookata is the only way you can have steamboat and bbq at the same time!!

Thai Milk Tea - $3++

Strong tea aroma and flavorful milk tea. It's better than other Thai restaurant Milk Tea.

Taste: 3.5/5

Crystal Noodle Salad - $9++

I don't really eat salad but this was good. It served with Glass noodles, squid, minced pork meat, lettuce topped up with their Thai salad dressing. The sauce was sweet and sour, it was very appetizing!!

Taste: 3.5/5

Deep Fried Kang Kong - $13++

Interesting dish. First time trying deep fried kang kong. But it's only sound interesting but the overall taste was quite weird.

Taste: 1/5

Chili sauce for you to dip with your meat.

We order a standard set that cost $49.90++ suitable for 2-3 pax.

It consist of:

Pork
Pineapple chicken chop
pork belly
scallops
prawn
fish cake
assorted vegetablesb basket
squid
crab stick
roast pork
pork belly cheese roll
Thai mama noodle

Food: 2.4/5
Ambiance: 1.5/5
Service: 2/5
Price: 0.5/5

My Verdict:
The food was good but the price was too pricey as it wasn't match the food quality. I would suggest you to try other mookata restaurant.

Cafe Review: Little Wimbly Lu

Little wimbly lu is located at my village mall, serangoon garden. This small cafe was Wimbly lu second outlet! Little wimbly lu cafe was really small as they only occupied 14 seats. It's really an eat and go concept.

Hot Chocolate - $5.50

The hot chocolate was extreme bitter and have a sourish after taste! It was so different from their main outlet, WIMBLY LU.

Taste: 0/5

Waffles with Double scoop ice cream - $10.50

The waffles here was smaller compared to wimbly lu! And it has a bitter taste in it. My choice of ice cream was chocolate truffle and salted caramel. The ice cream was good, it was aromatic and creamy.

Taste: 1.5/5

Overall, I was very disappointed in the waffles and the hot chocolate. I will never go back again!

Cafe Review: Oblong

Oblong, is a cafe that mainly serves ice cream, waffle and pastries that is situated at the Serangoon Garden region. This small ice cream shop is very crowded during weekend nights. Their specialty is certainly the Red velet waffles with ice cream.

Rest room behind the wall. LOL

Red Velvet waffle with 2 scoop of ice cream - $10.30 Nett

Waffles are crispy and chewy with a little beetroot taste. Cheese are spread in between the waffles which make the waffles taste sweeter. The ice cream flavor, Coconut and Earl Grey Lavender. The ice cream was creamy, smooth and fragrance.

Taste: 3.5/5

Food Review: Pow Sing Restaurant

Pow Sing Restaurant started in 1983, the owners are hainanese and wanted to share with Singaporeans the true taste of “Hainanese Chicken Rice”. They first set up a chicken rice stall at the current place and later hired a nonya chef and changed name to “Pow Sing Restaurant”.

Menu:

Food:

Sauces for the chicken. The chilli was very fragrance and spicy. It was really good. The dark soya sauce was thick and a tad sweet. Garlic was fragrance and combined well with the chilli and the chicken.

Fragrant rice - $1

The rice don't have the chicken aroma and it was very dry and tough.

Taste: 0/5

Hainanese Chicken - Half for $14

The white chicken was tender and juicy, drenched with a sauce that blends well with the chicken meat

Taste: 4/5

Kangkong with Belacan - $8

The sambal paste was fiercely hot and thats what i love it. It went very well with Kang Kong which was perfectly cooked to maintain the crunchiness and freshness.

Taste: 4.5/5

Tofu with Mushroom - $15

The gravy was too salty maybe it affected from the salted egg. The tofu was smooth and well pan fried too. The rest of the ingredients was just normal.

Taste: 0.75/5

Food: 4/5
Ambiance: 2.5/5
Service: 3/5

Overall, This is a place you can truly enjoy traditional Hainanese Chicken Rice alongside sumptuous Nonya delicacies. I will be back for more.

Lifestyle Review: Feet Haven Reflexology

I went for a really good Foot Reflexology in the North East last week! I live in the north east and have always been on the look out for good and cheap massage places. A good foot massage can really help one relax, particularly having been on your feet all day long.

Prices:

The shophouse unit is decorated in a vintage old school style. Customers are greeted with a row of comfy leather recliner chairs. Two portable massage chair was placed in-front of the leather recliner chairs.

After soaking my feet for 5 minutes in a sea salt foot bath, my therapist started massaging my feet. My massage therapist really had amazingly strong hands with a very firm pressure and a variety of strokes. He ensured that all the areas of my foot was targeted. Based on my reactions to the different targeted areas, he gave me information on the state of my body health. According to him, my body was very cold and suggest me to eat more herbal stuff.

Benefits of Foot Reflexology

Reduces bodily pain and aches
Enhances relaxation
Improves sleep quality
Reduces psychological symptoms -- such as anxiety and depression
Boosts a sluggish circulation
Improves poor digestion
Reduces stress

When muscles overworked, waste products such as lactic acid can accumulate in them, causing soreness, stiffness & even muscle spasm. Massage improves circulation, which increases blood flow, bringing fresh oxygen to body tissues. This can assist elimination of waste products, speeds healing after injury, and enhance recovery from disease.
