as of late..

book: Pride and Prejudice and Zombies - interesting concept and crazy cool illustrations.
song: push me to the floor by the parlotones - my south african friend Casey introduced me to this awesome band. Definitely worth checking out.
movie: the kings speech
recent buy: a ticket to 'lady chatterleys lover' and a watermelon blended ice with coconut jelly from bubble cup
what i want to buy: another watermelon blended ice with coconut jelly from bubblecup, and a red skirt.
addicted to: red lips, curly hair and cinnamon hot chocolate
what i want to accomplish: the perfect pin curl
restaurant of the moment: Rose Garden BBQ, 435 Elizabeth street - this is one of my favourite places to eat when i'm in the city, most of the dishes are under $10 and are amazingly delicious. I normally get the fried rice with BBQ or Roast pork and Duck but i recommend the Spicy Chicken ribs that are to die for.



thanks to Munching in Melbourne for the picture :)

1# Wing Seong Fatty's Restaurant

its been awhile since i've done a first post..

even though this is actually my 68th post on no lies. just love. this 68th post feels like a first post.

this is because this is my first 'the food blog' post.

for those of you who are thinking.

'what.the.hell'

then i'm very sorry to have confused you. (you should probebly check out my 'pages' underneath my header and then you'll maybe understand)

anyway.. back to my first 'the food blog' post.

i'm lucky enough for my first (or 68th) post to be a review on a Singaporean Restaurant - Wing Seong Fatty's (Fatty's)

type of place: restaurant
type of food: asian, chinese
address: 175 Bencoolen Street #01-31 Burlington Square

at 12.30 (with no breakfast mind you - dad is an early early riser who doesnt need any food in the morning) we were all so hungry we ordered up a feast of roast duck, combination char siew and roast pork, singapore noodles and fried Man Tao buns..

even as i was eating those amazing little buns i was thinking..

i could write amazing things about you.

Fatty's Man Tao buns are Michealangelo's David of the bun world.

when doing some research on Fatty's one food review stuck in my mind

"I found the roast duck really ordinary.... there was nothing special about it. The skin wasn't crispy and the meat wasn't particularly tender.."

with no offence intended to this fellow reviewer..

you are wrong.. very very wrong..

the roast duck had an amazing skin that was crispy and had the ability to melt in your mouth, and the meat was completely unique with the softest texture..

i am sure that their duck was just old and grumpy.

type of meal: lunch, dinner, night dining
occasion: children/family, after ork
atmosphere: hidden find, noisy/vibrant

must tries: Man Tao fried buns, Roast Duck
