EaT EaT EaT...

This whole week had been a gourmet week. My bosses not in town hence my colleagues and i have been running all over the place during lunch to search for good food. ok, maybe not all over Singapore but just slightly beyond my office vicinity as for this week we had the luxury of time.

Mon
Authentic Korean Food at Circular Road.
Food: Ginseng Chicken. bbq chicken, bbq pork and best of all some Kimchi steamboat.
Verdict: very authentic (even the ambience), and the steamboat is damn good
Damage: $17 a person

Tues
Ba Kut Teh at PSA building
Food: Ba Kut Teh of cos, salted vege, tau pok, tau gua.. others (the usual you have with BKT)
Verdict: very overpriced! a bowl of BKT was $6.50 which i thought was too much!.. the food is not too bad though
Damage: $12 a person

Wed
Forum Seafood at Boat Quay
Food: a cod fish (fried/steam) for everyone, a bowl of soup of your choice each, claypot tofu, lemon chicken, hotplate pork, vege, a drink each and fruits.
Verdict: Very tasty food (full of msg!!), very worth it for the amount we paid.
Damage: $10.50 a person

Thurs
Yan Palace at Hong Lim (I gave this a miss as i was meeting Jas for lunch)
Food: Dim sum
Verdict: dunno
Damage $21 a person (heng i did not go haha)

I had herbal soup with Jas and coffee. we talked and it was nice, reminded me of we were in e past.

Fri
Prawn noodle at Keong Siak Rd
Food: Prawn noodle, (it was a different kind of prawn noodle. not the usual kind you find at the food court, spicy soup with the fat beehoon), yong tau fu, vege and prawn paste chicken.
Verdict: food was not too bad but a bit expensive for zi char stuff
Damage: $14 a person

I feel like a food critic haha..

I spent $63.50 on lunch this week. not a huge amount but not something i can do every week, no time and FAT.. Think my boss might be wondering why all of us seem to have put on weight when he was only gone for week haha...That's the end of our honeymoon. back to serious work and no more freedom next week... the only consolation..
ITS A PUBLIC HOLIDAY ON MONDAY!!!!
