Yummy yummy little dragon buns

karene @ 12:12 AM


Zong Ren & I had dinner at Nanxiang Steamed Bun Restaurant at Bugis Junction sometime back. We actually had no idea what we wanted to eat but decided that we wanna treat ourselves to something good - aka. no hawkers and food courts, not that they don't have good food, but we decided to indulge in pricey items for the sake of it. :P

And we didn't regret it. :)

The noodles were yummy. So yummy, we finished it waaaay before the other table did and it was because we saw the next table eating it that we ordered it. So you can imagine, the other table already had their share before we ordered our food but when we finished it all, they still had half the dish left. Hahaha.

Ok, maybe they were damn slow.



I didn't take photos any of the noodles and rice (which was not too bad, but not fantastic) but these... little dragon buns (ala xiao long bao) were so delicious! 'cept zr had to spoil my gastronomical experience by telling me those he had in Shanghai were better.

Okay lor. Fine.

I was rather fascinated by the ceiling decor, which doubles up as a lamp.



I like how it's rather structured yet seems so very flexible... as though you could turn it around all over and it would still work out. Almost makes me wanna flip the photo and then it would look like it's standing on the ground.

And there were all these scribblys on the wall.



Yup, I know they're Chinese words and not scribblys. And I can read them too. It's rather nice, don't you think? Reminds me of old period dramas where the "restaurants" have their menus scribbled on blocks of wood stuck on the wall. :) Nice.

Anyway....

Look at the time! I only just got home from work about half an hour ago. Lately, there have been so many projects and meetings that I'm at the brink of breaking down. But ah. How blessed I am to have encouraging and supportive colleagues, friends and a dear beloved bf who cheers me on every step of the way. I'm always thanking God for the miracle of encouragement!

Stand still and consider the wondrous works of God.
Job 37:14


Keep me strong, Lord! :)
