Prince Hotel – KL, Malaysia
Meritus Mandarin – Singapore
Mooncake with a twist – sponge cake like mooncake
Chicken Rice, still my favorite and had this the very first time when I was in Singapore, visiting my online g/f.
Mee PoK

The neighbours saw the wife cooking the above noodles and wonder what it was. It’s called Mee Pok, a kind of flat noodles, just like spaghetties but flatten. We don’t get this very often in Atlantic Canada but once in a while when are up in the city, the wife buys them and store them in the freezer. She have to remember to get to them before they get freezer burn though.
This is what the wife and daughter eats all the time, when she has the time to cook them at home – or when she misses her home. I tried some and it was alright.
The chinese restaurant owners in our town are good friends of the wife. They go on and on when they meet, so whenever there is food for her at the Chinese restaurant, I am sent to pick them up, so she doesn’t get stuck. Fried bread or bun you don’t even get to eat them here. It is common in Chinese restaurants in Asia but not so common here in the West, so these are special treats that the wife gets every now and then. How do they taste? The wife said a little too oily for her taste buds and her health.
These were the ones we had in Hong Kong not too long ago, so you see how different they are. Glutinous squares and fried bun and a tapioca jelly are all for desserts in Asia.
