Hawker food and Texas Chicken for today






Went to Kovan food center and had curry rice ($4), soon kueh ($3 for 3 pcs) and coconut ($2.80).
The Hainanese curry rice queue was long but the hawkers were fast and competent. The soon kueh
(turnip+mushroom etc) was very good and tasty.
Dinner was 2 piece combo set Texas Chicken ($8.40). Also had an ice cream cone for $1. The mashed potato and chicken were delicious and the restaurant was almost empty except for a few other diners.

Hainanese curry rice@ Let's Eat




Had this Hainanese curry rice for lunch. I ordered the cuttlefish one which is the most "expensive" ($6). The cheapest on the menu is pork chop curry rice ($4.30c). The dish comes with a generous serving of cabbage and a fried egg with curry gravy. Overall the food is definitely good and cheap.

Today's lunch was the Hainanese curry pork cutlet rice and dinner was just a simple soft French toast (with condense milk) set at Toast Box. The rice meal was not too bad considering it was only $4.50. The soft French set was delicious and the tea was delightful ($6).

13 October 2015 Tuesday




I thought this is amusing. Edmond drew it and sent to me. The haze must be bothering not only humans but aeroplanes too.
Edmond Tay is my ex colleague. He is one of the few whom I still keep in touch. He lives about 40 minutes drive from my place but his grown up daughter lives a stone's throw away from my place.
At times when Edmond visits his daughter he will call me for a drink at a coffee shop nearby. Yes I almost forget to mention that he is an artist too.

The haze is still around and at 5 am the PSI reading was in the unhealthy range of 129, much worse than yesterday. Yes, as usual I am up early at 4 am. It's a good thing I have a computer at home so I can spend time on it when I am not asleep. I don't watch TV except the news or some interesting documentary programs.

8:30 am:


The haze is getting worse by the hour. At 8 am the PSI is 144 (unhealthy range). Our purifier is almost red and that means the haze has infiltrated into out apartment overnight. We do not switch on the air-conditioning in the living room (where the purifier is) during the night but in the bedroom.



Hazy day again, shopping and eating at neighbourhood mall




On Mondays and Tuesdays, senior citizens are given a 3% and 2% discount respectively if they shop at NTUC Fair Price. Since today is a Tuesday, you will notice there is a 15 cents discount given to me in the bill (big deal). The eggs that I bought are about the biggest and most expensive (Omega 6 plus vitamin E...don't true or not). Actually I dislike eating small eggs so I will always go for the bigger ones.
As for the grapes (think they're from Ozzland) they are quite sweet and not too expensive.

The haze PSI reading is 153 at 12 noon and so I equipped myself with the N95 mask and a pair of 25 year old sunglasses to protect my eyes ( see below) whenever I leave home (don't want to take chances as many have fallen ill).

For brunch, I had a piece of brown toast with peanut butter spread, 2 soft boiled eggs and a cup of kopi O at Toast Box. Didn't take any picture because many of you would have seen that in my earlier post (eat quite often at Toast Box).





Had this Hainanese curry rice for dinner. Quite tasty at $6
