Chinatown Oluwak & Pow

The oluwak or oyster omelette (top pic) is yummy and the portion of oysters is generous and big. Paid S$6 for a plate.
The pow is huge and prepared by a Chinese cook. For $1.50c each, it is good and cheap!

Car, pork pow and sandwiches in Japan

We took a lift in a friend's car (Mitsubishi mini 660cc) and was pleasantly surprised to find it comfortable and quiet. Although small in engine capacity, it was well powered and fuel efficient.
Our Japanese friend told us the price tag of this car was less than S$18,000.
This same car cost a whopping S$90,000 in Singapore.

The pow and sandwiches were from a convenient store. The pow tasted almost similar to the one which we could buy from our local kopitiam. As for the sandwiches, they were really very good, much better than the ones in 7-11 stores.

Yishun Laksa

Since we were quite free today, we went to Yishun for our favourite laksa. Before the laksa, I had a haircut nearby.
The laksa is still as good as the last time we ate about a month ago. Towards the later part of the afternoon, the laksa gravy was thicker and tastier.
After laksa, we proceeded to a coffee shop nearby for our favourite "big pow". A little disappointed as the pow wasn't as juicy as I expected.

The ice tea was refreshingly tasty as compared to the one which we usually drink at a coffee shop near our home.

Bah chor mee & meat,char siew pows @ AMK

The bar chor mee tasted very good. I have never eaten there but had in the past tar-pow or take away. When we ate them at home the noodles were soft and dried but still tasted delicious. So today we decided to drive to Ang Mo Kio Ave 3 to try the noodles at the coffee shop. The taste was also as good as when we brought them home.
Next to the noodle stall was the home made pow stall. The smaller pows were char siew pows and bigger ones were meat pows. They were excellent and better than some sold in big tim sum restaurants.
FYI, the bar cho mee is $3 a bowl, the smaller char siew pows is 60 cts each and the meat pows is $1.30cts each.
