5pax lunch at 上海人家 on 16.8.2022.^^
quite below expectations from watching dr leslie tay video
kong bak pao was ok quite flavourful braise pork
生煎包below expectations not enough soup & quite hard
小笼包was better meat & soup very tasty but the second piece much better than the first so some problems with consistency
pork fritters was nice
did not have 醉鸡
spring roll turn out to be the best dish..very sweet tasty fillings very crispy skin and tender fillings
egg was good too not sure worth $10.75
the 2 handmade noodles were good the
braised beef better than pork
overall nothing great & quite expensive S$93 for the type of food we had

wrong day to visit restaurant on 15th day 初一十五
service non existent
wanted to try alacarte buffet but gave up too difficult as servers no time to reply to any enquiry
ordered alacarte luckily dishes were great but too expensive.
the truffle mushroom soup very flavourful. kale soup also good.
suresh recommended brown rice & satay both were great!.also ordered maps tofu quite unique crisp outside soft inside and nice dip on the side. the wrap was good too, vegetarian Peking duck…lol!
still we had enjoyable lunch together.

had excellent 6pax dinner with brother, way lie, sis, ong pin & Lisa @ hoang hau on 11.8.2022.^^
the eel porridge was superb..very flavourful, sweet, perfect texture..something different
lobster bun (beehoon) really lovely especially the beehoon with all the tomalley sauce gravy
ban seo very good too, not starchy , very good ingredients belly pork & prawns & crabmeat..
both the rice roll & crispy rolls were good.
pho was ok but missing the essential flavour of thai basil
was a wonderful dinner
quite happy to come try the set lunches sometimes too.

wenyu & PT bought lunch @ Claudine on 11.8.2022.^^
this restaurant by chef Julian Royer of 3 michelin star odette and Lon& behold group at the location of previous white rabbit
2 course set lunch $62 & 3 course $78.
eggplant caviar & grilled leeks both very good..
beef provencale very well done as best a braised beef can be..not my favourite dish but not much choice
beef tartar was excellent one of the best very sweet & tasty a bit vinegary..
pigeon was excellent too
dessert were pretty good..I like the apple crumble best…
great dishes if not really my favourite dishes & too expensive for the dishes
I enjoy set lunch better at spago or la tapiera

delivered homecooked dishes for teban gardens friday community breakfast on 22.7.2022.^^
this my 115th friday breakfast community meal dish at teban gardens community service centre, 6th time on restart after a 2 year hiatus due to covid.
the centre was started in 2002 after much effort & challenge by our RI friend who is a pastor of pasir panjang hill brethren church (pphbc) which owns & runs the CSC.
i first started doing a community meal dish for teban gardens CSC on 8.1.2016.
I started cook a dish for teban gardens on friday unless i am traveling or otherwise indisposed. when I started cooking for HCA, this was reduced to 2 times a month (also 2times a month for HCA) so not overstretching my resources…

tak meng bought 4pax lunch @ grumpy bear with hian hai & wai sing on 20.7.2022.^^
manager service very good …
we had fish & chips, truffle chicken, cajun chicken & prawn & mushrooms mentaiko pasta
food ok la..
fish & chips and chicken quite ok passable, mentaiko pasta way, way below par, presentation not good looked like carbonara, quite tasteless & frozen prawns not done well grilled would be better than boiled or steamed..
after lunch hian hai bought kopi and we talked till past 3pm…
very nice lunch and afternoon with old pals and bros…
grumpy bear responded to google review
