Ma Maison

Visited Ma Maison at Bugis, because when the last time I ate there, I really liked it. Since last time I ate the Hamburg Steak, I decided to go for the Chicken curry. I didn't really like it though. The chicken were in such huge pieces, and the curry was way to strong. 

Twelve Cupcakes

Went to get twelve cupcakes again, because I really wanted to try the rose flavour. 

Twelve Cupcakes - Rose

It looks really nice!! And honestly, I was expecting some cupcake with rose fragrance. So this was a total let down. In the sponge, they just added rose syrup. The cream wasn't anything special either. It was just sweet, sweet, and sweet. 

Twelve Cupcakes - Strawberry Chocolate

This looked really appetizing too, so I got it. I really like the chocolate sponge. The cream was also good. This tasted a while lot better than the rose one. 

Twelve Cupcakes - Vanilla

With vanilla sponge cake and vanilla cheese cream, this is a full vanilla cupcake (minus the cheese part). Nothing really special about this. The sponge tasted like a normal sponge cake.

Strangers Reunion

So, following the cafe craze with all the teenagers, me and my bestie decided to give strangers reunion a visit. Just a side note; you can find all sort of cafe in these three websites: http://thecafection.com/ , http://www.ladyironchef.com/ and http://foodmakespeoplehappy.blogspot.sg/. So every table has this vintage looking bottle (filled with tap water). The place is small, and cram, and since it was lunch hour, and it was packed with people, our 2 seater table was definitely not enough for all that we had ordered.

Strangers Reunion - English Breakfast Tea

So I ordered English Breakfast Tea, and wondered why would tea be so expensive. Than I realized why when this whole tea set came. I'm sure this would be more appropriate if I was here for high-tea, but no, I was there for brunch. So this tea set kind of took up the large area. 

Ham Hock Benedict

Both me and my bestie ordered the same; Ham Hock Benedict. I have no idea what is Ham Hock. But just to describe to you the taste, it taste a little like cheese. I really like the combination of all the ingredients on the plate. (sorry for the super blur picture). I've always loved eggs benedict. But sadly, my bestie's poached egg was a little under cooked.

Butter Milk Waffles

After the egg's benedict, we shared a mutter milk waffle with vanilla ice cream and sliced fruits. The Vanilla ice cream was awesome. It really complimented the waffle a lot, and kind of covered the over-the-top strong butter and milk smell from the waffle. The waffle itself wasn't that good, but the ice cream was to die for.
For people who want to eat only the waffles, there is a shop beside strangers reunion that sells their waffles only.

Korean Ramyun

After the satisfactory brunch we had, we went to orchard (since we didn't have anything to do), bought some stuff and ate again. We are at this shop at Scape lvl 1. It was just so tempting, even though we aren't hungry, we still ate.

Gyouza-ya

So the new robinson in orchard has opened! And in the basement, with all the cookwares, there are a few restaurants there. Two of them are japanese, and both by Akashi あかし. So there is a gyouza shop, selling mainly only gyouza. You can choose either the soup one of the fried one. I personally prefer fried ones because it's always that has perfect crispy-ness if well cooked. And yes, I really liked how they cooked the gyouza, but I thought that it was too salty. It's only normal for the soup one to have extra seasoning, since it's like boiled, but gyouza are meant to dipped into the sauce (i'm not too sure but I think it's some kind of soy sauce) with chili oil. But the moment I dipped mine into the sauce, it became too salty. 

There is also a lack of variety of food in the menu, for main dishes, there are only two types of fried rice to be chosen from; the seafood one and the garlic one, and the only other main dish other than the fried rice is jyajyamian. I ate the garlic fried rice, which was basically just egg with garlic, but was quite nice.

Korean Food

One of the rare times that I actually like Korean food. Honestly, I don't know why but I really like this Stir fried Ramyun with rice cake dish. As for the fried chicken, I prefer the spicy sauce over the soy sauce. I went with my friend, and we shared, but we couldn't finish (^.^"").

This place is near Nook and carpenters and cooks.
