ShareTea Adventure

I've never drank so much share tea in my life.

The cash vouchers given during my Orientation Week almost killed me. LITERALLY. I didn't know why i ended up with ~$300 worth of the ShareTea Vouchers. You must be thinking why i didn't sell it right? I was too smart, thinking i could finish them despite the expiry date being 2 weeks away.

There are quite a few outlets by now. When i first drank it, it was at the Wisma's outlet and i tried the Yam Ice Blended with Pudding which was indeed a refreshing drink, great for a hot afternoon dessert. The pudding used is smooth and curdly and i think they made it themselves. Unlike some bubble tea outlets which uses the packaged caramel pudding sold off the shelves in supermarkets.

Some recommendations from ShareTea...


1) Milk Tea with Pudding. This is quite normal but you may find the milk tea a bit bland. The person who takes your order will warn you that it will taste bland if you order any sugar level below 80%. If you ask me, i will advise you to drink the assorted of unique flavours not available at Koi. Because i feel that Koi has the best milk tea thus far (:



2) Strawberry Smoothie with Lychee Nata De Coco. This cooling drink is under the ice-blended series which i find is the most worthwhile trying from ShareTea. Lychee De Coco and tangy and juicy, eaten with the sweet yet slightly sour smoothie, you won't get tired of it.



3) Four Happiness Mango Smoothie. I forgot to ask what are the 4 surprises i'm going to expect from the drink when i ordered it because i decided on the spot that i wanted to try that. At $5.70 for the ice-blended series, it might be a bit steep considering it's just syrup blended with ice. But well, the good thing about this smoothie is that it really is solid. There is jelly, red bean, pearls and cream on top of the smoothie. It's like a dessert on it's own! Most importantly is, you can't find this elsewhere.



4) Lime Green Tea with Yakult. Another quirky drink for hot weathers. Yakult mixed with green tea and lime sounds so healthy! I was tempted to try if it tastes nice. Wondering how can such a healthy drink even taste good. But it didn't disappoint me. In fact it's really thick with yakult. But i recommend those who wants to try this to get at least 80% of sugar level because i predict it will be quite 'siap' ( for those who don't understand dialect, it means a dry after-taste on the tongue). Good for ladies who wants a detox and non-fattening bubble tea!



5) This is Taro Milk Tea. I suppose it is quite normal but the powder used at ShareTea does not taste weird at all! Over there, you do not have to add any money for additional pearls into your drinks. YAY! This looks like the Yam Ice Blended with Pudding i was talking about above, but it's just not blended only. For the non-yam fans, you might want to give it a try as it's unlike the ordinary yam you're used to. Enjoy!:)

People's Park Complex hidden treasures

Image
I know it can be frustrating if you can't make up your mind between the three roasted meat stalls and four other dim sum stalls. They all look the same but you know surely one of those stalls is the famous one which your grandparents and parents grew up eating.  Today, I'd introduce to you one of the best dimsum and roast meats non-restaurant style, together with some new findings in the current People's Park Complex.  It has been a long while since I last wowed at the dimsum before me. The stall only displays a pathetic number of dishes in the glass cabinet as compared to Ho Kee which display a wide myriad of choices. Yet... 道记(Chop Hean Kuan) 's dimsums sells like hot cakes. The price range is not large, cheapest at 90c for items like the ugly looking yet tempting siew mai, egg tarts and 韭菜角, the most expensive item is 2 bucks for the 糯米鸡. The mini char siew bao was heaven. I seldom fancy this because it feels  often feels like eating marinated card board.

Jimoto-Ya (Singapore)

Image
Sometimes, i wished there isn't so many new restaurants sprouting around our tiny island everyday (pocket is bleeding), but at times, i am exhilarated especially when something like Jimoto-Ya is in town! Thanks to one of Jimoto-Ya's sake supplier who strongly recommended the place, that i had to try it right away. And in a week, there goes 2 meals at Jimoto-Ya. I was there on a weekday afternoon and a weekend night respectively. Both experience were unique on its own yet similar in the right points.  From top: Ebi Shoyu Ramen Set (19 SGD), Curry Rice Set (19 SGD), Ebi Shio Ramen Set (19 SGD) Lunch and dinner menu are the same at the moment with ramen and rice sets taking the limelight. For lunch, i shared the above 3 sets with my 2 girlfriends who were as delighted as me to eat them the second the food was served. The smell of amaebi boiled for hours alleviating from the soup made it even more irresistible. The choices were decided with the help of the boss, Se

Tendon Kohaku's 2nd outlet!

Image
Ever since I chanced upon Tendon Hokaku (even though I've read so much about it before that plus all the instagram spams on my wall) at its 1st outlet at Suntec, been missing it. Just that the queue can be quite a pain especially during the peak hours. So there's also peak periods for dining nowadays!  It's opening at Circular Road last week has caused such a hype especially amongst the working crowd in the area. CBD IS HAPPENING TOO!    Quickly, the queue has formed with longer queue times as the days go by. I went on a Wednesday at 1pm and the waiting time was 15 mins, better than I expected. Then on Thursday, it became 40 mins. I'm not sure how long it'll be in the days to come. But if you all agree with me, the perpetual queue is a good sign too!    The cosy outlet has about 6-7 tables and some counter seats so I reckon it can hold up to 20 pax at each time. Menu is a standard 4 types: Seafood, chicken and mixed vegetables tendon (spicy or non-spicy) at $15 whil
