Was looking through the photos taken in July with my mobile phone. Up to nothing much, except for going on a short weekend trip to
Chiangmai (which I word-pressed in
http://ilovelongvacation.wordpress.com/) and checking out some much-hyped about food in-between work.
Lobster rolls must be one of the latest food fad in town. Had my first one at
Platypus Lobster Shack with the girls at Pickering Street after work one day. Not awesome, but wholesome :)

| Cosy cafe specialising in lobster rolls after 6pm. |
 |
| The making of the lobster rolls. Looks simple. But it took a while before we were served.... |
 |
| The best shot I took of the lobster roll served with chips and salad. Too cosy were the lighting! We all chose The Traditional flavor, this being our first visit. Served in other flavours too. Like sun-dried tomatoes, smoked paprika, spicy diablo etc. |
Had the famous
Tai Hwa Pork Noodles (Bak Chor Mee) for lunch at Crawford Lane. Was such a long wait of 1.5 hours! Tasty but don't think I will do it again for lunch. Too much of a queue - for taxi and then food. LOL.
 |
| Bak Chor Mee! Ingredients were cooked just right - nothing over cooked or under cooked. Sounds really simple right? But really hard to strike that dedicate balance, I think |
 |
| Huge portion of pork balls soup! Tangy balls and savory soup :) |
Wish I had found the energy and time to blog earlier about these food options so you can check out if you work near or are near the CBD. Not really a fan of checking out food during and after working hours though - guess not in the food mood :P Always more enjoyable to explore our backyard on weekends (which I have spent quite a few checking out flats these days...taking a break this weekend because I'm running the Half Marathon tomorrow!!)
