Sweets @ Menotti

Limoncino
This dessert does not makes you feel lazy... It freshens you up! From its name, you can guess that lemon is involved! It is actually a pie with Lemon Custard filling and meringue. Anyway Menotti have a lot of very nice Italian Dessrts! Just to name a few - Riccota, Tiramisu, Soffiato, Strudel etc etc.... but too bad, have to control.... bcos it desserts so only tried this... the rest all looks very pretty... I must try them all!
Any recommendation as to which one to try next?! Let me know!! :)

Seah Deli - The Heavy Weight Champion

Upon recommendation by fellow foodie, FoodfieGymmie decides to embark on a journey to Seah Street Deli to try the so called Best Burger.

There it is, we have reached Seah Street Deli

Some of the items in the menu...
So empty on a evening... the deco resembles very much of BilliBombers...
This is the first page of the menu, not a jukebox! But there is a juke box situated just beside me. When i was seated, the server came over and asked if we want Justin Timberlake. Deep down inside, I wanted FallOut Boy or 周杰倫... haha. So Justin Timberlake starts blaring beside me. At least its still better than those oldies before i came...


Cheers~ Ice Kosong! The Evian Ice Water cost $9... its not those one big tub on water cooler kind, its only 330ml mind you. So... be wary...

quesadilla - with melted cheese in between Masa Dough (I think), with roasted Chicken and sour cream and Guacamole as condiments. The Jalapeno when eaten with the dough adds a special tinge of spiciness to the dough.

Upclose of quesadilla

I must say this dish is very nice. Its chewy, due to the dough and the melted cheese. Its slightly charred, so you get a slightly burnt aroma.

4.5 Tacos / 5.0 Tacos


Texas Burger

An Enormous Burger boasting 12 ounce - 350 grams of beef patty, topped with BBQ sauce. Laid on the patty was a few strips of smoked bacon which i find was too dry and crispy, even bakwa taste better. Then there was sauteed peppers and onions, a hardened layer of melted cheese which was a turn off and of cos veggies! The fries was nice..probably bcos i haven't had any for the past...hmm... few... mm... i dunno.. maybe months?

See... its thick! You can see that the cheese is actualli very dry from here. The Beef Patty is very beefy... but also too dry. The bun is toasted to nice tan.

The Texas burger being striped off its bun...

4.0 Texas / 5.0 Texas

I still prefer the iEat Super Burger at Astons, jucier patty and bacon, with melted cheese not hardened melted cheese. But well... Texas Burger still get a 4.0, not too bad la... still nice.. but just not as nice.

Seah Street Deli is located at Raffles Hotel #01-221 along Beach Road

My Birthday Cakes!


My Birthday Cake made by Dearie~ =)

Pandan Chiffon cake with chocolate hazelnut toppings sprinkled with MnMs and Chocolate rice crisp! I always love pandan chiffon cake! i can finish one whole cake from Bengawan Solo by myself! hehe.. For the first time I got homemade cake for my birthday! SO HAPPY! I love this Pandan Chiffon Cake... so fluffy, so soft! But only today then i learned that theres 300ml of coconut milk into this cake! But no butter needed. This is my sinful indulgence!

My first bite... yummyyyyy... The cakes are finishing very soon.... :

Mango Moose Cake from BreadTalk

Chocolates madness from the land of Kangaroos and Joeys!

Many many chocolates!!!
Many many so many chocolates from Australia.. How can i not become tubby and chubby... arghh... haha. More Gym and HIIT with little blacky Chiehui!!! Anyway the key point is eat in moderation.

Rocky Road

This is my favourite! Marshmallow Center, coated with a thick very thick layer of chocolatey chocolate and sprinkled with Peanuts! How sinful? Damn sinful. Just 50g of it contains like 20g sugar and 15g fats.

Chocolate HoneyComb

Taste like the chocolate with the golden wrapper... forget the name... Its cubes of honeycomb dipped into molten chocolate, then hardened - Just like how investment casting is done, soak the wax into slurry etc.

Richfield 70% Cocoa

Dark Chocolates.. I love Darks! They are lower in fats content than milk chocolates as cocoa itself doesnt contain much fats... its the cocoa butter and the milk! And a small little piece of dark chocolates (70% or more) contains enough flavonoids which are known for their anti-oxidants activity.

Fine Milk chocolate

Nice to eat... with no apparent benefits except adding inches to your waistline so that your pants become more fitting.

Caramel Fudge

I never eat this before and i I havent tried it... Fudgey things should be nice...

Brown and Yellow JI DAN GAO!

Brown n Yellow
Today i learnt something. Theres brown steamed egg cake! Brown means its made with brown sugar... yellow = white sugar! Everyday is a learning day! Crazy over Ji dan gao for now! All because of that stupid micron trip!
