A "BIG" new supermarket opens in Fukuoka






Name of the new supermarket is "Big"! Indeed it is really big and opened yesterday amid a rising Covid-19 in Japan.
We were there at 8.45 am but the place was very crowded and the parking area was full. We had to park our car 200m away in another carpark and walked to Big.
There were many discounted fruits, vegetables, fish, meat etc. on its opening day. We bought fish which was so fresh (1 kg at S$13) that we could have it as sashimi. The 8 kg watermelon was Yen 983 Yen (S$13) and we bought 2. In the night,we visited Big again and got ourselves some futomaki, yakisoba, okonomiyaki etc at a hefty 50% discount for supper and the next day's breakfast.
It looks like Big is going to be one of our favorite supermarkets.

Fish ball noodles and Okonomiyaki





I can't believe it when the hawker told me my fish ball noodles is only $2. This stall is at the food center along Ang Mo Kio Ave 10 (block 409). The usual price is $3 to $4 although the portion is a little bit bigger. Frankly, I do not mind having a small bowl especially since it was my first meal of the day. Taste wise, it's not bad.
The other 2 dishes are the home made Japanese "pancakes" known as Okonomiyaki. They are made up of flour, eggs, shredded cabbage, bits of bacon, bonito flakes, Worcestershire sauce and mayonnaise. They tasted quite good.

Eating at home



Took my lunch at home. It's spaghetti with bacon and cabbage plus a banana which is high in fibre.
Watching the shares online, hoping to pick up some cheap bargains.
By midday the STI is up 30 points to 2860. Waiting for Noble to come down as well as Ezra & Vard Holdings.
I was tipped to buy Golden Agri which I bought at 0.41 cts in the late afternoon. Was told it will go up to 0.465 and 0.50 cts in the next few weeks.


Today's dinner is Okonomiyaki


Okonomiyaki is a kind of Japanese pancake. It is made up of flour, eggs, cheese, shredded cabbage and bacon. It comes with the black coloured sauce. Tastewise it is not bad but I don't think many S'poreans would be fond of it.
