went with wife to foodie mart @ eng hoon street on 9.12.2020.^^
shared a S$7 tiong bahru yong tau foo.
I don’t take yongtaufoo much. I like this stall and also ikan bills ytf at chinatown fc.
pretty good. the yong tau hu itself ok good standard but nothing special.
ytf well fried. great taste and soup was good too.
in a sense the ytf we bought from chinatown market basement stall just as good or even better more selections/choices
a good, light meal, especially when shared. lol!

made & delivered HCA Hospice Care 25pax lunch today on 3.12.2020.^^
curry chicken and pork soft bones are my regular dishes for HCA and very popular with the patients.
for prawns, I tried different sizes of prawns. previous I had smaller prawns I think 81/100..this time larger prawns 41/50. pan grilled gave it a great flavours but even 1 kg prawns is a small dish for 25pax so I used it as a supplement on the vegetable dish.

today my turn to buy 3pax lunch @ la tapiera on 1.12.2020.^^
have not been here for a while.
the excellent set lunch menu still same. I recommended the spanish octopus leg ala plancha and the asparagus.
asparagus was excellent. octopus legs today ok still nice but not done so well slightly tough. my friend went back with family few days later and tried the octopus again. he said this time excellent. 🙂
the lamp rump was still superb, so tender and tasty and excellent salsa and sauce.
a friend ordered the duck. he tried some of my lamb rump & commented duck was ordinary by comparison.
a wonderful lunch & chat with these 2 younger friends.
