I would like to share one quote of the day with you my readers ... so read and lets joy lift you up!
- "Do, or do not. There is no 'try'."
- - Yoda ('The Empire Strikes Back')
After i have sort of recover 70% i intended to get my first normal meal, not by indulging, but at least allowing me to see a complete plate of food. As you know i eat lot .. lol .. i do not know how i survive when i was sick, when i barely take 3 spoonful of food.. its just lots of medication!!!
I went to IMM and thought that i should have some nice ermz Chinese Cantonese food because it was late at night. bearing in mind doctor says ... avoid food that is 1) hard to swallow 2) hard to chew 3)too solid food 4)spicy
so i was thinking porridge will be a good idea .. but NO! i hate porridge, so i decided to go with horfun!
But u know what .. to my disappointment, its either because its my 1st opening meal, i felt like vomitting and don't eat much or because the food sucks, or maybe its both reason!!!!
I DID NOT FINISH THE FOOD !!!! i only manage to finish the almond cream .. lol
Wan Chai Tea House
level 2 outside daiso , IMM
We ordered :
Crispy noodle with black pepper beef - $6.80
Seafood Black Pepper Horfun - $6.80
2 bowls of almond cream - $2.50 each
total 18++
Although my taste bud might not be fully recovered, i am still able to do little bit of food tasting.

Firstly, the beef crispy noodle ... the serving portion is definitely generous. its huge chunk of fried noodle dose with savory black pepper sauce and tops with juicy beef slices and cai xin.
The noodle is perfectly browned, the beef is tender and succulent enough on its own. But thats not the important point of Cantonese cuisine!! its the sauce ... meeee god !
ITS TOO SALTY ! did they mistook the salted bean paste sauce as black pepper sauce ? the sauce when scooped was starchy, and it lacks the kick of a genuine black pepper. it taste more like black pepper sauce off the bottle ! Really needs improvement
The next dish is Seafood Black Pepper Horfun
This is one of their most recommended dish. Their hottest dish in town!! However, this dish is always , i repeat always lacking in consistency. Horfun lover island wide like me, would agree on one thing .. horfun should have the 'WOK HER' The distinctive flavor pack aroma of the wok when the rice noodle is being stir fry in high fire.
BUT THIS HOR FUN DOES NOT HAVE ! -- this is already considered a total failure.
But the only consolation of the dish is that they serve the seafood in its full glory. The prawns come intact with shells and mussels, fish slice. But generally speaking this is not the main idea. well.. this still be of some credit to their 'famous' dish.
ok enough for main course ... its dessert time ....
almond cream !!!
This hot sweet creamy stuff is widely known to be used by Chinese princess to maintian their youth and complexion .. But its also soothing to the throat. so i have it! its not one of the best. but its still palatable...
well, as i will alway say .. go try it yourself !! you can decide for yourself
When we are going back we saw this van at the carpark ... pple going for mobile fengshui ??? come on pple!!!! don't fall back to primitive supersitious !!! trust yourself , the greatest weapon is your mind!!!
this van is nicely done up.. but quite funny
lol ,.. till then we meet again
