Food Blog: E Blackboard & Wan Zhai

E Blackboard is the newest name added, that is bringing restaurant-styled western food to the HDB heartlands. Foodies have already heard of the likes of Astons and Botak Jones who are dishing out great western food at alarming rates!

Anyway, I went to try after seeing it on television the other night. This branch in Blk 431, Clementi Ave 3 is called e.BlackBoard II. The original stall is at the other part of the island in Bedok.

I had an order of their Signature Chicken Chop which comes with coleslaw, tuscan fries and chicken with the skin slightly charred. The chicken was actually quite good, juicy and well-marinated. With the flavoursome pepprish gravy over it, it was wonderful. I enjoyed eating the chicken becaues it was very chicken-ty and tender. The fries was also very addictive but I like Botak's version. And the portion of E Blackboard's is definitely not as overwhelming as Botak's.

I have forgotten to take photos because of a famished tummy. Till the next time then, because I'm going back for more of their specialties; for instances the steak, cajun chicken, beef patty, fish n chips etc which are yummylicious and with reasonable tags.

Before this, I went to the Tangs Bazzar Sale at NUS. It was pretty interesting. Wanted to take a look at the the sneakers as I read somewhere it's pretty cheap but din have the ones I fancy. Mac was having like a huge sale because the normal shelf price items were high. The friend din manage to get hers because they had limited stocks. In the end, both of us bought alot of food from the food stalls. tsssssk

Next on, I went to CCK to get my stuffs and had dinner there. This time round, I remembered to take photos but average food there =P hmm. Just wondering, why do they need to put a scoop of ice-cream over the milk tea?

The spoon ads -_-

That's the difference between the dry and soup wanton noodles. And why in the world is the dry one slightly expensive than the soup ones. Took a walk at the Pasam Malam and saw this - Old school game. The photos though blurred and not focused showed the orders of how you fix the gun before firing. heh

- End

I think I spent the money in my wallet all on food today. And this upcoming event, World Food Fair at Suntec might make me fat fat and wallet thin thin. lol. So do you think they have the food samplings as well? heh

Peektures: Cineleisure - Catastrophe

Milk Tea

Black Pepper Chicken Egg Rice - Look so not appetising. That goes without saying the food

Har Gao - Sensitive tastebuds suggested a high probability is those frozen ones from supermarkets

Chicken Chop Cheese Baked Rice - So ketchup-ish

The food ordered were a total disaster. It was horrible plus terrible. That was my second visit there and I swear I wont patronise it again. However, the service did improve. The food, seriously need much much more improvements. Raaaaaaaah

With a least than satisfying lunch, caught Step Up 2 - The Streets. The theatre's seats are kinda uncomfortable and with those irritating asses seated behind keep kicking my seat, it was a horrid experience and superb annoying. On a lighter note, as the name suggested, the movie was all bout streets but I still prefer the first one. So much so, I din suffer from any dissonances from the movie

Apart from those crazy dissonances, to end the day with a mad headache and to stand all the way back home were a continuity of disasters

P/S: If the har gaos are really those frozen ones, the cafe is not acting socially and by blogging it down, this is an example of contagion effect. heh

Photo Galore: Meetups - Welcoming and Farewell

Get to meet up with Gen after one year because she decided not to come back for holidays during her break. As quoted from Grace, Gen is one degree holder now while we're still mugging. Hmm. I think the word 'mugging' doesnt describe me at all. hahah. Since when I mug. Sigh

While waiting for her to end her interview, Grace and I were starving and we headed to Sushi Tei to fill our tummies. hahah

Salmon Sashimi

Potato Salad

Golden Roll - Mango and Prawns

Unagi Sushi Roll

Then, headed to Canele Cafe, Paragon for desserts. Cant hide the fact that we keep eating whenever we are out, just that it's only a small group of us instead of the whole class. hahah

Finally had the chance to indugle in this relaxing ambience of the shop as I've been walking past a few times and never had an opportunity. What's attracting is the chic design of this small cosy cafe with the shop's classic look and delectable pastries

Caraibe

Strawberry Shortcake

Chocolate Classique

I like the Strawberry Shortcake the most. Dun really like both the chocolate chocolate thingy as it was too sweet and dense especially the Caraibe. Really taste like eating a piece of chocolate. I find it average, overall

Ambience was pretty good. Just that they may want to do something to the insane temperatures. It was practically an igloo inside the cafe. I do understand that the cakes on display have to be chilled. But hey! Do i look in any ways like a cake? Besides having the same amount of fat contents as one =/ So please, do turn up the heat a little so that your customers have a suitable environment to enjoy their desserts in!

*****************

After bidding them goodbyes, rushed off to Bugis to meet the girls. It was a farewell dinner for Lynette as she's returning to Aussie. Our inital Steamboat plan was changed because one dodo was quite full after her Dim Sum Buffet. We decided on Korean Crusine at Liang Seah's - Mario Kitchen

We ordered the combo sets. One large BBQ (choice of meat) with soup and one Dak Gal Bi with steamboat. The waiter commented that the food we ordered are much much more than the headcounts. He never knows that we are such big eaters, especially with Aunty Aw around. lol

Writing her food diary under her course of sociology of food -_-

She's talking bout her upcoming trip to Redang to conserve turtles. lol

Appetizers. Apparently, only that dodo twinie likes. haha

Steamboat - Pork, Veg, Potatoes

Dak Gal Bi - Not enough for us. lol

Ginseng Chicken Soup

BBQ Chicken

Food was good. I think I've done a review on this restaurant. heh. We finished everything in a short while. haha. Afterthat, it was cam-whoring session

After footing the bill, we hunted for more food - Desserts. There's a couple of dessert shops there but since we haven try on this, we went over, literally opposite, for our cravings on desserts! heh
