littlestream SG Pai seh.........steamboat (some think it's boring but I guess depending on the liao, right?). I've bought Fish maw Fish balls Prawn balls Some kind of deep fried thingy, taste like those balls but not shaped as one Tau pok That Japanese clear noodles thingy, packaged in a bundle type. Tou Fu Abalone Napa Shrimps Pork butt Chicken thigh Any other suggestions to add to my list? Thanks.
dragg SG i love fish maw, especially good when the soup is boiling hot. pacific clams is also my favourite.
littlestream SG There is one congee house......serve it with shredded chicken congee. Hmm, yummy. Nice.
littlestream SG Actually, I'm neutral to both. Quite chewy leh. In any case, I only buy abalone during CNY. So, it's like eat once in a year like that. Pacific clams? Boh buy unless eat at the congee place then got eat lor.
Wanda SG Abalone is a pc of overpriced rubber, to me. Pacific clams is good enough. I like Victoria brand - very tender and consistent in size.
littlestream SG Yah lor, I agree. I just buy because of CNY lah. Still very traditional lah. Yeap, I just had pacific clams with shredded congee for dinner. Sedap. Now, soaking fish maw but don't know why take so long to soften.
littlestream SG Heeeeheeee.................alamak.........really pai seh. i meant to write shredded chicken. hee hee..........laughing as i type. okay wanda, i got to run. see you again, yah. have a wonderful day.
gerrykoh SG Buy golden mushroom & fresh mushroom, crab sticks, beef balls, sukiyaki beef, liver, kidney & veg. like watercress & bai chye. Makes the soup very sweet!
littlestream SG Do you mean the king oyster mushrooms? I like that very much. Taste a tad like abalone but not chewy. But then, it is good only when stir-fried. I tried it with soup and it tasted different. Fresh mushrooms as in the white coloured button mushrooms? Okay, I've bought crab sticks. Beef ah? Hubby and son eat beef but because cook aka me do not eat, I don't know how to buy either. Liver? Will it make the soup sort of murky? Kidney, must know how to wash leh otherwise smelly. Yah, I think I go get watercress. Thanks very much for your suggestions. Hope/trust you will have an enjoyable reunion dinner.
