Soon Hock fish

Commonly called Soon Hock or in English would be 'Marble Goby'. Since the restaurant is having a promotion on this fish, we choose our catch from this bucket.

Very delicious and the flesh is so succulent and just simply melt in your mouth....yummy. Cantonese style of steaming with light soya sauce and garnish with spring onions and chinese parsley.

steamed prawns

Clams stired fried with spring onions

dragon vegetable

salted egg crab

Another ingenious receipe from Malaysia which is the salted egg crab. Lightly salted and deliciously stir fried to taste the softness of the crab meat.

Baked oyster with cheese topping

Nicely baked to taste the Canadian oyster with the melted cheese - a perfect blend to top up the delicious dinner.

Manila - Together with Albert, we took a calesa (horse drawn carriage used in Philippines) around Intramuros. Albert and Lesley Albert and I Intramuros is the oldest district and historic core of Manila. The walled part of Manila was called intramuros, which is Latin for "within the walls"; districts beyond the walls are known as extramuros meaning outside the walls.

Cheong Guk Jang - fermented bean soup

Seoul - Lunch with Youngjin was at a traditional soup restaurant and it was crowded. Youngjin asked me many times Cheonggukjang "ok", I said ok not knowing what to expect. I have tried many weird and smelly good in Seoul, so I was very prepared. My first time tasting Cheonggukjang and I like it. CheongGukJang 청국장 is fermented soybean soup aka Stinky soup. Actually, I like fermented food and the smell does not put me off. I like fermented food because of the many health benefits and also we have them here in Singapore - tempe, belachan, fermented bean curd (which I love with my porridge), chincaluk, etc.. very hot Cheonggukjang I always buy danjang paste and bring home to make soup. I understand that they are the same but the difference is Cheonggukjang beans are uncrushed and are fermented for a longer period of time.
