C'est LA viE

I am well known for being a foodie, and one of the reason that I am so passionate and interested in food is because of my family.

All of us are particular for food, especially my dad. Both us dad and daughter share the same taste bud, we always crave for the best food in town.

Dad is willing to try different food, is just he still typical a chinese cuisine eater, always boast about the worthy and value of price in eating chinese food.

He could accept Korean and Japanese, or even Vietnamese, but he would still insist Chinese cuisine especially with ordering various types of dishes along with white rice is the best. 

Recently, we had come across some rarely attempts of food experience in our neighbourhood. 

Just like today, we visited this Thai restaurant where i never knew that it had been opened since 2015, until i discovered via facebook. 

I was amazed with their clay pot tom yum, though dad complained that there are too much of lemon grass and spices bits in the soup, but i think that's the essence of tom yum which we cant really neglect, and in fact their portion is very generous, i got to drink up to 3 bowls!, not just me, all 4 of us got almost similar 3 - 4 bowls of soup. 

We ordered 5 dishes: clay pot tom yum, stir fry fish with egg plants, omelette, pandan chicken and papaya salad. 

Overall, their dishes are not that spicy, but very flavorful, except for the omelette is slightly small and the pandan chicken is almost tasteless. 

We were so full after our meal, but the waiter was very enthusiastic to recommend their home made dessert, and really fall for it after his constant approaches. 

I should have poured all the coconut milk to the mango sticky rice, i forgotten the coconut milk is salty, how i claimed myself a foodie? ==

Actually the mango sticky rice is very nice, but it would be even better if i poured all the coconut milk in, because it was too sweet.

Thankful that dad and mum allowing the dessert because i knew them well that they would skip dessert, because neither of them are dessert fan. 

Main reason was dad has diabetes and need to cut down on sugar, while mum is always concious about health and would ban sugary sweets. 

So today considered very special that we can have dessert after dinner, and also happy that this thai restaurant actually can use U-pocket app for discount =D 

Here also would like to throwback some of the food experience i had recently with my family.

Dating with my man, my dad, haha. It was just 2 of us for dinner that night, and dad was asking me to bring him to places where i had those good food with my friends.

But that is so hard to find good cafe food or special food in our neighbourhood, so ended up we come to Todam. It had been a while since our last visit, and their food still good. 

What surprised us was we underestimated the size of the seafood pancake, and was so hard to swallow everything in the end. 

Definitely over eating and stufiing that night.

Curry fish at the restaurant we used to go, no one can resist curry~

Last but not the least, we also gone to the Korean BBQ place we went once last month. I think actually their food was just alright, and decided to bring mum and dad for Mr. Dakgalbi next time. =)
