Homemade Sushi

Those ingredients are just basic.

Bamboo mat

Japanese Rice

Add the vinegar to taste it better. And make it sticky too.

Have to wait for the rice to cool. Bad image for seaweed if the rice is hot.

Despite the fact that I have made these sushi for 3 times for this year, i still couldn't manage to get the rice correctly. =(

Crabmeat

Japanese cucumber
Which is more ex than the original cucumber.

Fried Eggs

Tuna

First time, made tuna sushi. When i tried, it was really bad. I should add more mayonnaise. However, some of my customers said ok-ok ba. mmm....

Seaweed

Required alot of energy to roll sushi. To make sure that it must be tight. Else, while u are cutting, all the ingredients will come out easily cause it's loosen. It will not be neatly afterall.

Serve with soya sauce and wasabi.
Wasabi yuck! I hate it. =X

You know what? At the end of the day, i forgot to take photo of my colourful sushi. -__-

Anyway, i know my homemade sushi is not perfect.
I remembered few of my customers mentioned that it is --> Dry!
mmm... will think about it of how.

Next, wanna try making California and corn sushi. Wish i know the real reason of why my rice isn't perfect.

Garrett Popcorn

Saw quite alot of people gathered outside the shop. Was curious.

It must be popular?

Wow.... Over 60 years man!!
What they make and the way how they do and their machines, are damn cool!!!! How i wish i can enter and explore.
Ta-da!

Popcorn!! A mixture of Caramel and Cheesecorn popcorn. Costs me $8. To me, i think it's not ex. A....LOT leh! Like a thousand popcorns. Much much better than Golden Village/Cathay popcorn.
The cheese one ah, is damn cheesy! But quite salty. After a few mouths of it, you will find your hand oily. Also, will be thirsty. Still, it will be fantastic to those who love cheese.
As for Caramel, is really really sweet. Made me eat non-stop. Crunchy! <3 Yummy!
There are other flavours too but i can't remember. Saw a board sign saying "No Photography".

I bought this at somewhere City Link Mall (opposite Adidas), the only place i know of.
Found this website --> http://www.garrettpopcorn.com. Seem like it's not meant for Singapore. It's from Chicago and New York. Nevermind, got 1 here in spore, which you can try tat! Best recommend is Caramel.

The best popcorn i ever had.
How i wish there will be more Garret Popcorn shops in Singapore.

Ribena Lime Soda- RM5.90 (left)
Both drinks aren't bad afterall. It satisfied us. =)

Pepperoni & Cheese pizza- ($13.50)
Cheese cheeseeyy cheeesseeyyyy!!!! And the beef pepperoni are quite crispy!

Baked Spaghetti Bolognaise

In receipt, they put $0.00. Cause lunch got 1-for-1 mah.. Thus, can't remember the price. *blush*

I can eat beef but i don't really enjoy eating it. No reason for disliking beef. Choosing this meal is bcos my GF like beef. I ate 1 beef ball can already. The spaghetti is quite bland. Should put more tomato sauce.

Hot U.S. Fries & Dips
Yummy! (^_^) *hearts* We only wanted fries only. But then,1 for 1 also included. Alamak! We know we could not finish it all if we have to order another 1. We wanted fries soo badly. Left no choice, ordered....

Chic?? Officially it's a chicken! So-so only!

Coit Tower- $8.90

I got this ice cream for free!! M1 gave my dad a voucher for his birthday. Old people like Dad, can't eat ice cream. lol.. kidding lah.. Just that my dad gave an ice cream lover who is ME! *blush* Thank you, Dad.
Overall, this ice cream gave me a shiok feeling. =) None of us eat cream. Where got nice?!

Once A Upon A Milkshake

Once A Upon A Milkshake is just like........ a fairytale!! Enjoying the drink in a happy moments. Feeling shiok when you drink and walk around at town, grinning from ear to ear.

The milkshakes are so thick. They are made from ice-cream, you know you know. It's home-made, you know you know. Makes me sip & sip non-stop!!

Sir Cookies & Cream (left), Agent Strawberry (right)

Grumbling Raisins (promotion: free topping)

Each costs $5.70 (regular). As for mini, it's $3.60.

Among these 3 milkshakes i tried, i adore Agent Strawberry the most!! So Heavenly! Sweety & Smoothy!
The Sir Cookies & Cream milkshake, i also like. =D Not bad.
Lastly, those who are "alcoholic", do try Grumbling Raisins. There's alcohol in it. 

Wanted to try Chocolate Truffle Castle milkshake. Unfortunately, it always out of stock whenever i drop by. =( It must be popular.

The popular drinks which the staff mentioned is: (if i can remember correctly).

- Agent Strawberry

- Chocolate Truffle Castle

- Grumbling Raisins

- Sir Cookies & Cream

- Litchi Otokonoko (lychee flavour) --> if i'm not wrong.

Whenever you order your drink, do take extra straw. Why?

Cause it's soo hard to suck that might break the straw. Really. You can try that. Ice cream milkshakes mah. Not all the times. It's "most" of the times. haha.. So if you are one of the lazy bum bum, lazy to walk back, do take extra straw just in case.
