Home-cooked Fried Rice
I was craving for fried rice and this day I finally had the chance to fry my own rice! I love to add big onions into my fried rice. So coincidentally, there were big onions in my house and I sliced them up immediately. They add a lovely sweetness and fragrance to the rice!
The other ingredients were crab meat, chicken patty and egg. The seasonings include salt, pepper and mushroom powder.
This is the version that my dad likes: shallots instead of big onions.
YUMS!
Will add on pictures when I fry them with different ingredients such as spam and ginger!
Gluttons Bay
This place is a gathering of Singapore’s local food, from chendol to bbq sambal stingray. It is also a place I frequent for dinner whenever I go to Esplanade for concerts. However, it now faces some competition to the newly opened Kopi-O which also serves local food fare. The Gluttons Bay is al fresco style, whereas Kopi-O is a comfortable air-conditioned place. Their prices do not vary much.
I have only tried a few dishes from Gluttons Bay – Hokkien Mee, Chendol, Stingray, Oyster Omelette, Carrot Cake and satay. The food are palatable if you’re there for the first time. The only dish I re-eat is the Hokkien Mee ($4) as I felt the sambal chilli that comes with it is nice. It is not too dry or soupy. It comes with two prawns and juicy squid rings. The only bad thing are the garlic pieces that were not thoroughly cooked. When you bite into the many garlic pieces, it does not taste that nice.
As for the rest, there are more than a dozen better ones at your neighbourhood hawkers. The chendol is a really cannot-make-it dessert. There was little coconut milk and a miserable bit of gula melaka. The ice shavings were coarse and big. 😦
The fried rice ($4) looks so simple. The corns, carrots and green peas and fake crab stick meat can be bought off from frozen shelves. Would you pay $4 to eat this?
I suggest you check out Kopi-O. If the food is not that delicious there, at least the air-condition will be able to make up for the money and time spent there. ^^

Chin Lee Restaurant
My family went to this restaurant to celebrate my Dad’s birthday. The food is not that fantastic and being located in the neighbourhood, the price is not cheap. Their salted fish fried rice is good, got the “wok-hei”. On top of this, I must must must recommend their Or-ni or yam paste dessert which is one of the best I’ve tasted. The portion is small though, but really worth trying. I’m thinking of just going down to eat their or-ni!
