CEDELE @ waterway point

this is the 2nd time I'm eating Cedele.. always had the impression that Cedele is a tea time place... But actually it's good for a light dinner too!

They serves sandwiches 🥪, all day breakfast 🥓🍳🥔🍠, wraps 🌯, salads 🥗 , grain bowls

wraps are well toasted @$13 each and the portion is acceptable

Coated with a thin layer of omelette, wrapping the chosen ingredients mixed with quinoa, spring onion and melted cheese 🧀

Will definitely come again to try more

Chicken Broccoli 🥦 and Red Bell Pepper.. it's more soggy, not sure why causing the wrap to be more wet but it's nice too!! 😋

Grilled 2-mushroom 🍄 and Pumpkin 🎃 wrap.. stuffed with mushrooms and pumpkin.. 😋

don't like pumpkin but I still can accept this.. it's not too soggy with a nice sauce

Personally prefer this to the other

Served with either sweet potato fries or salad 🥗

we had a slice of eggless chocolate truffle cake @ $1 (up $7.90) with voucher from @shopbacksg (with min spent of $20 to enjoy this deal)

Cake is nice!!! Thick chocolatey taste... Expecting the base to be a cookie/biscuit but it taste like peanut butter

theres the menu

No GST and service charge ✌️

CRAVE nasi lemak @ hougang mall

have seen CRAVE Nasi Lemak almost everywhere in Singapore but this is the first time I'm eating..

overall finds it average and portion is small..

rice 🍚 is basmati rice, don't really taste coconut 🥥 which is healthier

each meal comes with an egg, some peanuts, anchovies and cucumbers

the chilli is nice!! 😋 and goes so well with the basmati rice!

Chicken Wings value menu @ $5.90

I see quite a few reviews tt chicken wings is good but find it abit hard, not crispy chicken wing too

Fish Fillet value menu@ $5.90

its not so worth it i should say... and fish fillet is not fantastic too

heres the menu

hike

 

An 2+ hr hike on a sunny Saturday morning from Harbourfront covering Mount Faber Park, to Mount Faber Peak, continuing to Henderson Wave, entering into Telok Blangah Hill Park heading towards Forest Walk, see Hort Park at the end of the walk and yes, here's 2+ hrs journey
Take a walk in the nature! And from there, it's a short walk to Alexandra, just nice for lunch!
Of cos you can pack your own lunch and lunch at Mount Faber Peak or at the end of Henderson Waves.. no shades along Henderson Waves, so it's rather hot but you seems so near to the clear blue sky

So far have not encountered any monkeys 🐒 nor squirrels though

Upwards slopes, downwards slopes, climbing steps

headed to Alexandra Village Food Centre.. its a crowded place and some stalls are having long long queues! queues are mostly chicken / duck rice stalls

with so many choices and are so hungry, we tried wanton mee and one of my favorite thunder tea rice which is not a long queue

Muffins!!!
This stall has super super long q!!! And each order is at least a box of 6 and even more
Priced between $1.70 - $2.50 so many choices to choose from
We bought all of the flavors to try.. and our few favourites are greentea, greentea monster, cookies and cream, apple, streusel chocolate
Actually is those with the crumbs on top are the nicer ones 😋
muffins are not too sweet, texture is good..not too soggy or hard and the flavors are so strong!!  😍

THAI AFFAIRS @ millenia walk

it was so crowded at Suntec City last night.. to avoid the long waiting time for dinner, we decided to Millennia Walk, just opposite

not as much choices, and we tried this restaurant

portion is really small.. they do serve quite a variety of side dishes too... maybe tts why? 🤔

Green Curry Chicken @ $10 and rice to be ordered separately @ $2

Green Curry is not really spicy

few pieces of chicken and veg (carrots 🥕, long beans)

theres green curry taste but not the very strong type

Pad Thai @ $10

its abit too sweet but at least not tt oily

to me, it's average

heres the menu

📍 9 Raffles Boulevard, Millenia Walk #01-103 Singapore 039596

LITTLE VIETNAM @ guillemard road

Vietnamese food!

always like Vietnamese noodle dishes

came here quite some time back and today we are back cos husband had cravings for pho

heres the menu: https://littlevietnamsg.weebly.com/menu.html

this is what we have.. portion is not very large though but value for money

No GST or service charge

rice vermicelli with grilled lemongrass chicken @ $7.50

Chicken is nice but lemongrass is not very strong.. sprinkled with roasted chop peanuts 😋

I like the rice vermicelli! not the transparent type where we see in Chinese dishes.. it's not too soft nor chewy and the sauce makes it nicer.. abit of sweet, sourry, spicy

chicken meat with flat noodle soup @ $6.50

soup is nice, kind of peppery with chicken slices and flat noodles

shop is rather small with open space sitting.. so check the weather before heading!

CUPCAKES

I'm one of the lucky ones! Thanks to @minicakesandco_ for the instagram giveaway 🧁🧁🧁🧁🧁🧁

The cupcakes look so pretty that my camera has to "eat" before me
There's 3 flavors, vanilla, strawberry and chocolate and the green cream makes it look so pretty and unique 😍

It's not too sweet, nor tasteless.. even my parents like it! 😋

Cake is soft but not too wet nor soggy

Just below the cream, there's a small cube of vanilla/strawberry/chocolate
Cream is nice too! Especially when you fridge it.. but I can't really tell the flavor of the pretty green cream

Tip: when I consume it immediately, the flavor of the cake is not tt strong.. after fridge it for few hours, the icy cold cream goes just so well with the flavorful cake 😍😍😋😋

Soup Spoon

VOLCANO RAMEN @ northpoint city

Volcano Ramen.. indeed it taste different from the normal ramen we always eat

and we chose soup base tt is unusual.. 

Kazan Curry @$18.80++

curry is not very spicy, like normal Jap curry, comes with Cha shu, abit of bean sprouts and cabbage

 

Hinomaru Tomato Kazan 🍅 @ $15.80++

comes with a whole tomato 🍅 with skin removed, some cabbage and lots of bean sprouts.. no meat served

thick ramen is being used and the texture is just nice.. not too soft nor too hard

both ramen comes with a hard boiled egg 🥚 and some shredded cheese 🧀 served separately

served in a hotpot, the sauce is poured and covered.. while waiting, seeing the smoke oozing out from the top of the cover, you will get to smell the soup 😋 especially the curry one

heres how you should do it.. but the staff is helpful and friendly to assist

all volcano ramen comes with rice 🍚.. which is served after we have finished the ramen... so leave some soup!

the rice is really nice!!😍 it's sticky and taste different from typical Jap rice...

posters states that the rice were self grown in Shiga Prefecture... must try!!!

heres the menu

I see ppl eating the normal ramen too..

but I will definitely come back again for the volcano ramen..
