翡翠皇宫酒家 Crystal Jade Palace Restaurant

我说过会回去尝尝翡翠皇宫别的菜色,于是就带了妈妈, Jim 去吃, 顺便庆祝妈妈的生日。
点了4人分的套餐,不怕吃不完,因为有大胃王在(Jim!) :)

翡翠皇宫是一间具有广东特色的餐馆。
如果会说一些广东话, 就会觉得很亲切。
在那里的短短1个钟头,餐厅都是满座的。
做的都是老顾客的生意,是寅生都很友善,跟顾客打成一片。
(只是有一些外籍华人,听不懂华语???!!)



开胃菜; 酸甜豆干(冷)


汤是西洋菜炖猪腿肉,味道很鲜甜,很入味。
肉质真的很好,炖了很久的时间,还很甜,很嫩。
听说这样的腿肉,不便宜。

来广东餐馆怎么可以不点烧鸭呢:)
鸭很肥美,皮脆肉滑,实在好吃!


葱鸡煲
肉一样很嫩滑, 不过我觉得咸了一些。


三蛋枸杞叶,一道我在家也会常煮的菜。
可能是不要枸杞叶的养分被流失, 总觉的不是很入未。吃不出三蛋混在一起的香味。


鱼的熟度刚刚好,浆汁不会咸,有麻油香。
因为有剁碎的蒜头和姜扑在鱼上,所以没有腥味。

整个的套餐真不错,价钱也合理。
喜欢广东菜的朋友,可以去尝尝。

CH | C | LATE Research Facility

Discovered this new brand in town, with the concept of chocolate boutique + café. Well, not exactly very new as it has been located at Millenia Walk since late last year.


Beside the name that tells all, by the presentation and outlook of the store, I guess no one could link to chocolate in the first instance.

The boutique shop offers up to 100 different flavours of chocolate bars; from the usual flavor of Nut, Fruit series to Connoisseur and even Tea series. The packaging of the chocolate bars is generously splashed with alluring colors that make your eyes wide open. The polite staff told me that they make these chocolate in a local factory with all the imported ingredients.



Not only chocolate, Chocolate research facility also sells merchandise like in-house printed T-shirt and mugs. The café counter serves hot drinks like hot chocolate, coffee & tea to cold drinks like flavoured iced tea & the café is able to hold up to seating of 10 persons.


The cardboard-material drawers on the walls stores all the chocolate bars and the merchandises.

Noticed the different colors used for the packaging for different flavours and series.Each bar is priced between $8 - $12.
Unfortunately I do not have any craving for chocolate that day and I am by nature not a chocolate person so I did not attempt to get any. I guess based on the pricing, it quite steep. Isn’t it?

But I will definitely try it when I get better, now recovering from a serious flu…

Check out more details at Chocolate Research Facility
(I just don’t like how the words are being covered in such a fast speed. Read fast!)

妈的农历生日;寿桃- 翡翠皇宫酒家

今年妈妈的农历生日,悄悄的买了寿桃给她。

她没有在生日时吃过寿桃,今年就给她一个惊喜!:)

当我在想那里的比较好吃,有人介绍我翡翠。

我察看了一下,才知道不是每间都有卖寿桃。

翡翠的寿桃每天都做得不多,还好我要的数量不是很多,不然就买不到了。

到了那里,我也不懂翡翠的寿桃有多大,所以是寅生就去厨房拿了两个大小不同的寿桃给我看。

那里的是寅生很有礼貌,就算我只是买寿桃,她们也一样的帮忙和热情。


(不好意思, 由于相机的灯光不好,所以有点暗.)
每一粒的形状都很均匀。我买了一粒大的和八粒小的。
(大粒:$2.60 小粒:$1.20)



寿桃里面的莲蓉不会很甜,包皮也很松,很软。口感刚刚好。

我想我不久又会回去尝尝翡翠皇宫别的菜色。
