Coconut rice with an assortment of dishes, a small fruit platter and a cup of coffee/tea is today's set meal offered by the Atrium cafe at Serangoon Gardens Country Club. Of Malay origin, the rice comes with stir-fried squid rings in a mildly-spiced sauce, a fried chicken drumstick, a hard-boiled egg in a sweet and spicy chilli paste, and a slab of steamed fish custard in coconut milk and spice. The mix of watermelon, papaya and honeydew slices, and hot beverage present a balance to the rice dish. The set meal costs $10.80, and is available to only club members or their guests.

Japanese Ramen
A bowl of yellow egg noodles in piping hot soup, made from pork or chicken which has been boiled for long hours, accompanied by half of a braised egg, melt-in-the-mouth pork slices and seaweed strips, is what constitutes this dish. It is the ultimate Asian comfort food for me, especially when I am nursing a flu.
The heat emitting from and the tasty flavour of the broth give me a feel-good factor when I drink even just one spoon of it. The bouncy noodles complete the experience for me. Now I understand why the Japanese slurp their ramen when they eat this dish. It is ultra-delicious!!
