DaeSsiksin Korean BBQ Buffet @ Waterway Point

ABBEY: Wilma dated me to Daessiksin (Waterway Point branch) for first blood on her job. It is a Korean BBQ buffet and hotpot. But we just sticked to the grill. And when I say sticked to the grill, we opted to indulge in the BBQ part instead of the ready made items. The kimchi rice is starting to develop crust at the bottom, the fried chicken wing is somehow cold as well as the sweet and sour chicken and the one wrapped in seaweed. It seems they are there for a long time :) The bacon is just too salty. I enjoyed beef bulgogi, rib-eye, and pork belly. They are easy to chew, tender, and soft. Free flow of soft drinks, coffee, tea, and ice cream the whole 90 minutes of your buffet.

K.STAR Karaoke

ABBEY: What a way to celebrate Chinese New Year is to welcome it with songs. That’s why we booked a karaoke room at K.Star Karaoke at Orchard Central. For 2 hours we tirelessly “belted” our favorite songs and also to catch up with Chat and Shaine. Some items in our repertoire came from Ed Sheeran, Maroon 5, John Legend, Avril Lavigne, BlackPink, Rihanna and read this: Backstreet Boys. It was full of fun and laughters. Till the next concert. ELIT SG @ K.STAR Karaoke K.STAR Karaoke Mother Superior Chat  @ K.STAR Karaoke WILL:  One of best way to distress for Filipinos is singing on a karaoke. We’ve tried a few and the main concern is the cleanliness and the price. Haha! We booked K-Star for only $20 per hour.   Price - ⭐️   Cleanliness — ⭐️⭐️ Service — ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Uniqueness of every room — ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Songs — ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Do I need to give you more words? Go now and book a reservation with K-Star.  *** K.STAR Karaok...

PlayMade by 丸作 at Waterway Point - Yakult Taiwan Green Tea

ABBEY: Another bubble tea shop opened in Waterway Point. But the twist is they are putting Yakult on their selected drinks. For SGD 4.4, we tried a medium-sized Yakult Taiwan Green Tea with burnt caramel pearls. It taste citrusy and semi sweet. I like the pearls as they are soft and chewy but gives a little bitter aftertaste. PlayMade by 丸作 at Waterway Point - Yakult Taiwan Green Tea  WILL:  Another player on the field of milk tea! PlayMade! They opened a branch in Singapore here at Waterway Punggol. So what’s the difference with others?   Yakult! The amazing feeling of healthiness in your green tea. Is that it? No! Make this cup a bit sinful by adding a burnt caramel pearl. Hehe!  Their Yakult Taiwan Green Tea is totally recommended! Take a cup for a less than S$4.  *** PlayMade by 丸作  (F) https://www.facebook.com/pg/playmadeonezo (H)   10.30am to 10pm (A) 83 Punggol Central, #B1-K6 Waterway Point S(8287...

Becky's Kitchen - Swiss Chocolate Cake and Victoria’s Secret Cupcake

ABBEY: A cake from Becky’s Kitchen is always a “go to” pasalubong of Wilma. And it is on the top of the list that she gave me for the things I need to buy from Pinas. Aside from the cake she added Victoria’s Secret cupcakes. The cupcakes were sold for Php 365 a dozen while a whole cake costs Php 600. At last I set my foot at Becky’s Kitchen. Grab can definitely bring you anywhere. Hahaha. The cupcake is brazo de Mercedes in a cup. The meringue didn’t deflate after all the time it traveled. It is not too sweet also. Now I know why Wilma really like the cake. The icing is not your ordinary icing. It is almost like candy; semi-hard that gives the crunchy texture but melts in your mouth. The chocolate cake is not too overpowering but complements well with the toffee crunch. Both the cupcake and the cake should be taken moderately and with unsweetened hot drink.

KPub BBQ TriNoma

ABBEY: Wilma and I dined separately in KPub restaurant. We went with our own families :) But definitely not at the same time.  For 899 Php you can eat all items in the menu for 6 hours. I’m telling you that would be more than enough. The Korean side dishes alone can make you full. They have marinated beef, chicken, pork bellies, and fish and soup; all in free flow. No worries in cooking as they will assist you to it. No burnt meat. You can wrap it in lettuce or eat it with kimchi or plain rice.  I indulged in bulgogi and sukiyaki beef as well as pork belly. They were thinly sliced so easy to cook and chew. We also got ice cream at the end. Kudos to the staff for the birthday greetings for Jana.

Fried Vietnamese Spring Roll

Ingredients: Shrimp (cooked and cut in half lengthwise) Romaine lettuce Mung bean sprouts Black fungus (chopped) Carrots (julienned) Cilantro Rice paper Dip: Fish sauce Lime Chilli Sugar This is an easy recipe. Wet a rice paper in to warm water. You can arrange the sprouts, black fungus, carrots into the lettuce for easy wrapping. Put the shrimp and cilantro on the end side of the wrapper for better presentation as it will be seen on the top layer. Fry the spring rolls, then double fry. That is the key for crunchiness. For the dip, mix all ingredients according to your preference. Serve and enjoy. Fried Vietnamese Spring Roll VERDICT WILL:  Never taught that Rice Paper can be fried! Thanks to YouTube.
