Sort of miss this Pontian Wanton Mee in Japan and so straightaway ordered a bowl when I saw it at Seletar Mall. Tasted better than usual and won't hesitate to eat another one when I next visit the stall.

Brunch@ Block 473, Sengkang & dinner was chirashi don



We have been to this coffee shop before. The place has free wi-fi and is still as quiet as in 2016 when it first opened. The wanton mee is as good as before but it has increased by 30c a plate to $3.30c.
The breakfast toast set is now $2.50. The initial offer of $1.80 per set is gone.


Charashi don from Thomson Plaza


This was the first time we obento (tar pow) the chirashi don and ate it at home (above). It was $12.80, the same price as when we ate at the Sushiro Restaurant at Thomson Plaza. However, this time the sashimi were smaller pieces as compared to the last time we ate at the restaurant. Besides, the rice was hard and unlike Japanese rice.This would be the last time we would tar pow the chirashi don.


This was the chirashi don we had in the restaurant a few months ago

Breakfast at Buangkok MRT Station






Being a Saturday, we were pleasantly surprised to find Kopitiam at Buangkok mrt station not very crowded. We decided to eat over there. The dishes shown above were all from Kopitiam.

Sunday's meal



Wanton mee ($3.50) wasn't a bad idea for lunch. We also ordered seafood pasta ($7.90). The prawns and green mussels were quite nice but not the cuttlefish or squids which was not fresh (cos it was frozen, I think). Frankly, between the two, the wanton noodles was a more delectable dish and cheaper too.




The Japanese version of our kueh lapis was not as sweet which suited our taste buds. It was a gift from one of our Japanese friends. It's soft in texture and moist. We had it for dessert.

Wanton mee and Korean bi bim bap





Had the wanton mee ($3.30) at a Bukit Merah coffee shop for breakfast. As for lunch, we had bi bim bap which was cooked by my wife. Both tasted super good.

Few facts about bi bim bap:

Bi bim bap is a Korean dish. The word literally means "mixed rice". It is served as a bowl of warm white rice topped with namul (sautéed and seasoned vegetables) and gochujang (chili pepper paste), soy sauce, or doenjang (a fermented soybean paste). A raw or fried egg and sliced meat (usually beef) are common additions. The hot dish is stirred together thoroughly just before eating.
In South Korea, Jeonju, Jinju, and Tongyeong are especially famous for their versions of bibimbap.In 2011, it was listed at number 40 on the World's 50 most delicious foods readers' poll compiled by CNN Travel.

Lunch@ Zhongshan Mall







We were told that the foodcourt at Zhongshan Mall off Balestier Road serves delicious wanton mee. It was a 20 minute drive from our place. Although it is a Sunday, the mall wasn't as crowded as other places. Besides, parking is free of charge for the first 2 hours on weekends and public holidays (very rare) and between 12 and 2 pm on weekdays.
It was the wanton mee that attracted us to Zhongshan Mall. We ordered 2 plates of wanton mee ($5 per plate) with char siew and a plate of veggies ($6). It turned out to be quite good although the one at Eng's Noodles is much better.
After lunch, we wandered around the mall and spotted a hot beverage and pie cafe. We ordered  one rendang pie and a chicken pie ($5 for 2) and a cup of Earl Grey tea ($5.50). The pies and tea was a disappointment.

"One Ton Me" stall at Bugis




I was at the Bugis area this morning and came across this noodle stall with a name that is funny. Instead of "Wanton Mee" it is "One Ton Me". I must say the owner is really innovative. Instead of wanton mee I ordered a bowl of Ipoh Hor Fun ($3) and a cup of kopi O (80 cts). The noodles and kopi O tasted quite good.
