Xiang Rui Zhou Pin 祥瑞粥品 - One of the BEST Porridge

ABBEY: Wilma introduced this porridge to me when the stall is still at Tanjong Pagar. We buy it every morning. Haha. Somehow the Tanjong Pagar hawker center was renovated and it was closed. Her colleague told her that it has a branch at Kovan. I searched for it and found it. Now it is closer to our home. 

A bowl starts at 3.50SGD with pork slices, century egg and youtiao. It was delicious. The taste is right; no need for condiments. They also have chicken, frog and minced pork. 

This is a must-try. Expect queue as well.

MENU
WILL: Every lunch we are requesting to one of our colleague to buy a bowl of this porridge. And it is a mile away. Haha! Not always, they are in the mood to walk that far. In luck, they have a branch at Kovan  

Abbey, always craved for its taste and sometimes after his night shift he will buy some of those for breakfast. Of course you are not intrigued of its taste, for sure it is tasty unlike other porridge that taste water haha! 

Umami flavour enveloped that porridge. Not just water and rice. The pork and century egg merged to satisfaction! Buy an extra fried dough, and soak it to your  porridge to soften! Yummy! 

With this, who will say porridge is a meal for a sick man?

Honey Garlic Sriracha Chicken Recipe

Ingredients:
8 chicken wings
1 cup all-purpose flour
salt and pepper
1/3 cup sriracha
1/3 cup honey
1 tbsp vinegar

Mix flour, salt and pepper.
Coat the chicken wings and deep fry them. Set aside.

In a pot, mix sriracha sauce, honey and vinegar. Put in low heat and stir for a couple of minutes until it thickens.

Add the chicken and stir until the wings are coated.

Serve with rice. Or beer :)

Honey Garlic Sriracha Chicken

VERDICT
WILL: Abbey and I saw a youtube channel that interviews people while eating chicken wings coated with chili sauce. 

Drooling on their every bite, I requested Abbey to do a Honey Garlic Sriracha Chicken for our dinner. 

The crispiness and spiciness is totally bombastic in our tastebuds! Lovely! Who will count on cholesterol if the chicken's skin will be the most important part! Haha! 

Next time, I think I can endure the next spiciness level!

Tiger Brewery (Singapore) Tour

ABBEY: Tiger Beer is a product of Singapore and you can have a guided tour for only SGD 18. Make sure to come on time as the tour will start with or without you. 

The first stop is getting to know the ingredients; malt, yeast, hops, and water. Then onto the process; getting the malt out of the pulp, fermentation, and packaging. It will take 5-weeks for a batch to be completed and make beer. We were also shown how to do a perfect pour (remember two-finger foam). 

At the start of the tour we were given sampling tickets. And we can use them to taste Tiger beer products as well as other beers being made on the plant. And you can enjoy your drinks in a cosy bar with leather seats, billiard table and dart boards. 

I like the Strong Bow Apple Cider and Tiger Radler Lemon. Yup, less alcohol for me. And we also got to take home a bottle of extra fresh Tiger Beer which was bottled that same day.

WILL: Do you really, really think that there's nothing left for you to visit here in Singapore? Well, think again! Have you checked out Tiger's Brewery?! 

Good news! They are now open on Sundays for them to accommodate more people! What you can see in this factory? Of course the process on how they manufacture the Tiger Beer. Only that?! Do you know that Tiger Beer have bandwagons of other fermented drinks? Their team includes Barons, Guinness, ABC, Anchor, Strongbow and you have got a chance to sip those at the end of the tour. 

What I can say about our tour? Our guide seems in a hurry, he didn’t gave us a chance to watch videos. Why I know that there should be videos to watch? I saw the other group (after us) well-focused on the big screen just before we left the building. I also forgot to take his name down. Anyways, I won a quiz game and he gave me a try to take a beer right on the tap! 500mL. 

Then after the tour they will give you another 500mL each of Tiger Beer on a weissber glass and 5 coupons of your choice of beer. The lanyard, you can keep. But if you gave back the Visitor's ID itself, they will hand you over a freshly brewed bottled beer for you to take home.

Their bar/tavern is relaxing. It is just like that you were thrown to US. Haha! Leather seats, billiards, darts. They have chips available for sale. 

The best time to go? 2pm. $18? Not a rip-off! Before I forget! Abbey discovered his beer type in here! If you want more beer and you run out of the sampling tickets, you can have a new set (5 tickets) for only $5.
