Yet more eating....fat belly....heehee

Crystal Jade Kitchen at Junction 8 has very good roasted meat. I always enjoy eating the Soya Sauce Chicken and the Roast Pork as part of the Twin Roast Meat Delights served with rice. The chicken meat is tender and its skin fragrant, while the pork is roasted to a crisp. The rice is slathered with a light gravy, and the item is accompanied with mustard for the pork and chopped spring onion in oil for the chicken. It is pure heaven. :)

The porridge is also very smooth and tasty. I savour each spoonful of it as I consume it. There is a noodle house at Centrepoint which has the same items but I prefer the ones served by this place. :)

The building which houses Market Street Food Centre has a small food court along the road. I had a really simple dish of Sliced Fish Porridge there. It was a good choice. It did not seem appetizing when I saw the cooking process but that belies the tasty broth and well-cooked ingredients as I tucked into it. Cooked rice is placed into a bowl, and in a separate pot, raw fish slices and Cai Xin pieces are cooked in a plain-looking broth. The result is a combination of nutrition and sweetness as the broth is poured on top of the rice. The vegetables are crunchy and the fish slices are fresh. It is also a dish that will fill you up despite its simple appearance. :)

Singapore Polo Club, yes, the one near the infamous detention centre where Salamat was housed in, is open to non-members and the food served at the coffeehouse is worth having more than once. I have tried a few items and they are praiseworthy. The place teems with locals and expatriates but the atmosphere is relaxed. The view looks out upon gorgeous greenery which is frequented by horses and dogs on their intimate exercise sessions.
