Name? I dunch wanna tell u. >_<


Really literally, "DINOSAUR"! =O


Let's tuck in!! (".)


Date: 28 Dec 2010, Tuesday
Time: 12noon - 3pm

It was first meant to be chicky wings @ Ikea Tampines, then I decided that a popiah & kueh pie tee DIY experience would be more appropriate for the kiddos.

However when we discovered that the kopitiam only has dine-in on weekends, we eventually ended up in Old Hong Kong Tea House along East Coast Road, by a stroke of fate. (",)

This is one of my many favouriate dining haunts which I discovered in 2006. Such quaint and relatively undiscovered place is a rare gem in our highly-urbanised Singapore.

It is difficult to miss this old colonial building fronting the quiet enclave of Katong Village if u are travelling along East Coast Road (not the service road along East Coast Park). It was once the old Joo Chiat Police Station whose heyday was back in the 1970's.

Jie Yi was apparently not quite impressed with its old exterior at first, but only to be pleasantly surprised by its dazzling menu. =D

I ordered my usual curry-flavoured fried beehoon and HK milktea. Jie Yi ordered the cheesy noodles with pork chop while SiYing ordered the Yangzhou fried rice. Both of them were so hungry that they also had the Dinosaurs. We ordered the fried carrot cake with XO sauce, siew mai and the steamed pork soup dumpling for the sides.

Jie Yi wanted to order the fried popiah but I was against it as I suspected that we would not be able to finish the food. In the end, SiYing could not finish her rice and her share of the carrot cake and soup dumpling. Jie Yi & I became the garbage trucks then... ("!)

If u love food, u will love this place. =)

This brings to a close the "Guess The Blog URL" Contest. Be sure to post your entry in the "Match The Teachers" Contest! (",)
