Original Herbal Shop

Foodpanda delivery from the Original Herbal Shop @ Balestier Road. I ordered Kwai Leng Guo or herbal jelly one of its signature desserts $8 and Mango Sago dessert $4.50. 

I ordered regular herbal jelly and they sent along the mentholated version that just adds to that TCM flavor. Needs more sugar syrup but I managed to finish it in one sitting. This tastes more like Aussie food than anything else, not meant to be minty.

More Aussie food, the mango is fruity and not soo sweet and there is no "soup" or pudding here, just fresh milk and boiled sagos.

From Breadtalk there are desserts in a cup (2 for $10) and snow cake ($10.90), just needs a rabbit sweet wrapper around it.

I ordered Sakura Aiyu Jelly Yuzu Tea and Korea Tea. The sakura jelly is very mild and the white tea is quite light, tastes more like a mixed drink than tea.

 Passion Green Tea and Korea Tea again. There are lots of seeds in the passion fruit and the green tea used is slightly floral, not bad might order it again.

Rochor Beancurd House

Rochor Beancurd for teatime and it really is the best beancurd pudding ever! I ordered mine cold with 8 Treasures $2.60 and ate up the whole thing in an instant. Grass Jelly drink with bubble pearls is the cheapest available $2.20.

Street snacks are also available and I bought one of each to try. Fried butterfly fritters, salted fritter, red bean fritter $1.40 and flaky egg tart $1.90 that is almost as big as a fritter.

Some dianxin items, Glutinous Rice that only had peanuts, no meat or mushrooms. Crystal Dumplings one of my favorite items.

Fried Taiwanese Chicken Chop and Squid in chili spices. Just look at that oil soaking through the paper.

INDLine North Indian Restaurant

Foodpanda delivery from INDLine @ Keong Saik Street a well known foodie area filled with eateries. I ordered from this place because it has lunch bentos, I am not familiar with what all the Indian dishes are called.

Lamb Bento of fluffy naan bread, dhal and mutton curry. The dhal tastes like porridge with a lot of broken grains and slightly spiced with Indian herbs. The mutton jalfriezi was very oily with a soy sauce base, still tasty especially with the naan bread.

Mango Lassi a fruit yogurt drink. Here it tastes like mango pudding without the pudding and its served in a bowl.

Vegetable Pakoras are deep fried veges served with a mint yogurt dip. The curry leaves actually tastes like hair perming lotion. I love the Indian spice and crunchiness, perfect for snacking anytime of the day and this spice mix here tastes just like muruku.

Jeera Aloo a type of dry Indian spiced potatoes. This is not spicy but has lots of herbs including fennel.

Rasmali dessert made from condense milk, slightly different from Gulab Jamun.

Old Town White Coffee

Old Town White Coffee Cafes serve Malaysian food and sells instant coffee mixes @ supermarkets. 

My FoodPanda home delivery from one of its outlets in Novena. It's Penang style Assam Laksa and Nasi Lemak coz we were considering going to a Penang Food Buffet but ended up ordering online for tea-time instead.

  

The orders came with canned versions of its famous white coffee.

The Nasi Lemak chili is the absolute best, I would just buy that on its own. The Assam Laksa broth had us salivating the moment we opened the lid, very aromatic.

New Stalls @ Zhongshan Park FoodCourt

Trying out the new stalls at Zhongshan Park Foodcourt. All the older restaurants there have closed. Korean food, I ordered spicy pork that tastes more like satay sauce.

Fragrant Wok that is like Mala Hotpot only without Mala or Hotpot. You can order the chicken version or choose the ingredients like Yong Tau Foo. $17 for this plate here with rice, the family size chicken fragrant wok is $18.80.

Qoo10 home delivery on my order of toiletries from Korean Brands I have never heard of before. Having trouble carrying heavy things home so delivery is really appreciated.

Food Gifts under $50

Making two of the same food hampers as gifts under $50 each. I made the purchases on Qoo10 when the offers popped up and saved quite a bit. Cash payment @ 7-11 within 5 days.

New Moon 60th Anniversary canned abalone. Its 8 pieces in a can, braised and ready to eat.

New Moon Birds Nest with White Fungus and Rock Sugar, a substantial dessert that will fill you up and is ready to eat out of the bottle.

Amocan Vegetarian Canned Food, it's famous dishes like Buddha Jumps Over The Wall and so on. Also ready to eat out of the can.

Free Fortune Cat with my online New Moon purchase.

Another batch of food gifts I ordered on Qoo10 that couldn't be wrapped up inside a basket. It's also well under $50.

24 cans of Coca-Cola + 5 bottles of Chinese Tea + 50 packets of Tapioca Chili Crisps + 1 box of Mochi.

I really like mochi and its not readily available in stores.

Alps Western & Salad Bar

Foodpanda delivery from Alps Western & Salad Bar, is the food really the same as in Europe?

Maybe because its located in a coffee shop, as my order for two came in under $30. I ordered Beef Burger that didn't have any sides $6.30, prawns quesadilla that comes with fries and coleslaw $9.50, luncheon fries to share $6.30. They even gave me an extra order of fries.

The taste is very European, using swiss raclette cheese in the quesadillas. Sweet & mild without any mexican flavors or chilis.

The beef burger patty is similar to spam, it has to be deep fried first coz its too mushy. In a bun with fried egg and spread with mustard.
