Baked Sushi with Salmon Fillet and Real Crab Meat - Most Expensive Lutong Bahay Abbey Ever Cooked

VERDICT:

WILL: Many people are posting how you can have a budget-friendly baked sushi. They went for all kinds but we prefer to taste the normal toppings of a sushi, so we bought salmon and pre-cooked crab meat (not the orange imitation). 

 

The taste? Superb! Salmon and crab meat gives a good umami flavour when partnered with nori and furikake. The creaminess of sour cream and mozarella cheese is overwhelmingly good. Plus the kick of wasabi! Oh-oh! It is fulfilling. 

 

This is the most expensive ($20+)“lutong bahay” we have .. for now. Maybe we can do this once a year.

Sembawang Hot Spring Park With Cascading Pool and Egg Station - One and Only FREE Onsen in Singapore

Sembawang Hot Spring Park With Cascading Pool and Egg Station - One and Only FREE Onsen in Singapore

 

WILL: Sembawang Free Hot Spring is not a new thing BUT it was closed for renovation and early 2020, National Parks opened it with a good design to accommodate more residents. 

 

Even it is quite far from our place, we still muster ourselves one early morning of July. We arrived 5 minutes after 7am and to my surprise, around 20 people were already enjoying the benefits of the hot water from the springs. 

 

They have told that hot springs have benefits like: 

Boosts Blood Circulation

Reduces Stress and Promote Sleep

Relieves Pain

Heals Skin Problems

 

We queue around 20minutes and soaked our feet for 30mins. The feel? I can’t feel my legs. Haha! It is not numb but it is like that my feet really felt the relaxation.

Things To Do in Sembawang Hot Spring:

- Foot Bath

- Hot Spring Water Collection

- Educational Zone

- Nature and Heritage Appreciation

- DIY Egg Station

Premier Fine Dining Dim Sum Buffet in Singapore | Si Chuan Dou Hua at PARKROYAL on Beach Road

WILL: Abbey passed 4 certifications from Oracle and he decided to celebrate those on a dim sum buffet at Si Chuan Dou Hua at PARKROYAL on Beach Road. 

 

We arrived 30mins early on a Sunday and because Singapore is still on DORSCON Orange Circuit Breaker Phase 2, we can’t linger around at Parkroyal’s lobby. We just stand in front of the restaurant. 

 

Exactly 1130, their doors opened for diners and we were advised that they will serve first the specialities on menu. My favourite in that is the steamed dumpling with seafood in clear soup, it is packed with seafood (of course) and not typically served in a different dim sum restaurant. 

After they served their specials, we started ordering that seems appetizing on the menu. The two items that really shoots on me are the sliced pork in garlic and chili sauce and the boiled spare ribs soup with golden mushrooms, bean curd and preserved capsicum. Why I like those? First the sliced pork is very tender and complements well with the spiciness of chili sauce and the pork ribs gingery/spicy soup gives a soothing relief on that rainy day. 

 

It is totally recommended for you to try dim sum buffet of Si Chuan Dou Hua at PARKROYAL on Beach Road. One tip is order food by batch, well at least 5-7 plates, there’s a time a that all guests arewaiting for the dim sums to be served for more than 30mins.

VERDICT:

WILL: COVID 19 cancelled all our holiday plans in Manila. The places we will visit..the food that we will linger into. It is indeed upsetting. 

Abbey do his best to solve the problem.. ahm well my problem on wanting to eat a Becky’s Chocolate Swiss Cake.

 

It is exactly (swak na swak) the same taste as the original. The simple chocolate cake, the not so sweet icing and the soothing cracking sound of the toffee! Yumminess to the nth level. 

Please bake try this on your kitchen. Did I mentioned that Becky’s Swiss Chocolate Cake location can only found at Valle Verde and behind La Salle? So you know now their market right? Wink-wink.
