laurence82 SG I rem, when we first came to sg, we saw everyone eating this packet of thingie called Fishermen Friend My mum went and bought one, and we three, including my sis, each ate one. We promptly spat it out. I have never touch FF again.
the Bear SG super hot mints huh? i got my aussie friend with a Warhead.. aka Super Lemon.. it was made funnier coz we were at the 7-11 and he was playing on the arcade game in there... "here trev.. have a lolly" "ta mate... AHHHH!!" and out it came again
littlestream SG Alamak.........it's not candy lah. It's lozenges lah. Okay, first impression is influential but forget about that experience. Try it again and then tell yourself it is good for the throat.
laurence82 SG Its called Warhead now, but i rem it was just simply Super Lemon or Super Coke back then and yesh, that was one hot mint
littlestream SG Oh, just an update on my steamboat eh? That fish maw which I put so much effort in (and perhaps was unnecessary) tasted terrible. I had one bite and throw the whole thing out! And they were not cheap, well, by my standard lah. Certainly, doesn't taste like what I had before. Guess, I ain't cooking it ever. And nobody, I say, NOBODY wants to eat the Chinese mushrooms/dried oysters/fatt choy that I braised for hours. No, I didn't throw it out. Gave some to my friend and ate it myself for the next three days. This weekend, I will be cooking porridge for lunch and will be trying out Bear's tips on the chai poh omelette. Hope it will turn out fine.
laurence82 SG I heard my dad talking to my aunt on chai poh omelette we had on CNY Something about not cooking it till crisp for the health concious Cant rem the exact words
littlestream SG Thanks. Yeap, will bear that in mind too. In fact, I never knew about hot wok sealing in flavours until skeujin's tip/post. I think I need to go cooking school. But then, over-heated oil is cancer causing agent is it?
the Bear SG which is why the wok is ridiculously hot, then the oil goes in.. the oil is heated to the correct heat
littlestream SG Oh really? I can never cook it right. I went to a friend's for lunch and she cook it so nicely. I love the way she does it. Actually, I don't know the technique. I only know how I like it.
the Bear SG damn.. but Arrested Development is one of the funniest things i've ever watched on tv! i must get the DVD of the series!
littlestream SG Wei, no big no small ah? At my age ah, I can be your mother, know? /uses magic wand * teringgggg * * magic dusts in the air * /turns ah lau into a rat!
the Bear SG one of the funniest lines of Arrested Development in Season Two has to be.. I'm a MONSTER!!!
littlestream SG Somehow, I knew that was coming. Okay, your prezzie is at that Starblue Haven. Go check it out. I got you a real deal there!
