Video: PIXELS

Are you a child of the 80s?

Do you remember playing 8-bit games like Tetris, Space Invaders, Pac Man and Donkey Kong?

I recalled spending hours playing in front of the TV via the game console and almost breaking the joystick! 

PIXELS is a award winning film directed by Patrick Jean. How many childhood game characters can you spot in this brilliant video?

Get Ready For More With The New KFC Rice Bucket!

KFC Singapore has just launched a new rice item - the KFC Rice Bucket. That got me real excited because I love chicken rice AND KFC and what better way to combine both!

When I first saw the TVC and poster, I thought the so-call "bucket" would be just like the A.M porridge size which is pretty small for my appetite.

However, I was taken aback when my order came! For those who are wondering about the size of the bucket, I can assure you that it is huge! The bucket is literally a 饭桶 (rice bucket)!

The KFC Rice Bucket comes in two different flavors:  Á La King sauce with mixed veggies and Original Recipe Sauce with mushrooms.

I opt for the latter.

兄弟啰惹 Brothers Rojak @ Clementi Central

Brothers Rojak

As a former resident of Clementi, I have lost count the number of times that I have walked past this unassuming stall tucked away at a corner of See Lam Hern coffeeshop.

Well, who could blame me when there are lots more choices at the nearby Clementi Central Market & Food Centre?

Till the day my family moved out of the neighborhood, I have not once eaten the rojak here. In fact, I did not even know that there is a rojak stall here!

What a shame isn't it?

I only got to learn about them many years later on the internet which prompted me to return to my old neighborhood to have a try.

秋莲板面 Qiu Lian Ban Mian @ Jurong East Westgate

Qiu Lian Ban Mian at Westgate

I remember I had my very first bowl of Ban Mian from Qiu Lian Ban Mian (秋莲板面) some twenty years ago during my schooling days in the 90s.

Ban Mian is a traditional noodle dish with Hakka origins (some say Hokkien) and it is Qiu Lian who introduces it to the masses in Singapore.

Well, I could be wrong though but I do not recall seeing any other Ban Mian stalls around prior my first bowl at Qiu Lian.

It was only after sometime that other Ban Mian stalls began sprouting all over the island when the dish became popular and gained a foothold in the local food scene.

At that time, the novelty of seeing your noodle being handmade (with the pasta machine) in front of you was something new to me and the chewy texture of the noodles was a refreshing change from the usual mee pok, mee kia, kway teow, etc...

Hotplate Grilled Chicken Chop From Yilmaz Western @ Ang Mo Kio Ave 6

Fish & Chips $5.50

A few months ago, I visited Yilmaz Western intending to try the Hotplate Grilled Chicken Chop but as it was not ready yet, I had the Fish & Chips instead.

I told myself that somehow, I must return for the Hotplate Grilled Chicken Chop and that opportunity came just a couple of days before Christmas when my parents and I happened to be around the vicinity of Ang Mo Kio. 

I ordered a Fish & Chips for the folks to try and a Hotplate Grilled Chicken Chop for myself.

As mentioned in the previous post, I am most impressed by the generous portion and the economical pricing.

The Fish & Chips scored rather well with my folks but just how did the Hotplate Grilled Chicken Chop fare?
