We were looking for something lighter tonight so we ended up at Milkfish which we haven't eaten at in a while. There's a kimchi option for their seafood soup which wasn't in the menu previously. Aside from the kimchi, I'm pretty sure I tasted tomatoes and their sweetness. It's not bad though with the heat and tanginess.

Sultan Kebab, Maxwell Food Centre
Not that Sultan Kebab. That's ancient history. This was a relatively new stall at Maxwell Food Centre (#01-86 Maxwell Food Centre, 1 Kadayanallur Street).
This was a plate of mixed beef and chicken on pesto penne. Pretty generous portions of meat over the buttery pasta. Not bad tasting but they also weren't very different from most of the other kebab stalls since all of them pretty much sold the same things.

Sanyo agedama of immorality Kansai-styled
Prawnography, Novena Gardens
Heard about Prawnography (#01-03A Novena Gardens, 273 Thomson Road, tel : +65 8686 9777) recently and I've gotta admit their name was at least a little bit arresting. Tried their Hokkien mee. Noodle's were nicely scorched and was smokey with the stock. Pretty flavourful but lacking in the crustacean aspect and it was also a little sweet - the latter part bothered me a little. Surfeit crept in after half the plate. Chilli didn't pack much punch in flavour and also didn't have as much heat as the fiery red might have suggested.

粿条面 from Lai Heng Mushroom Minced Meat Noodle (來興香菇肉脞麵)
Back at Lai Heng. It's just textures rotation I'm going through so today's breakfast was kuey teow and yellow noodles (粿条面). Not as good a combination as the bee hoon with yellow noodles (米粉面). The kuey teow they used were the narrower and softer variety. They clump easily and become a little gummy if not tossed well with sufficient oil. Good for their soup bowl, not necessarily these dry ones.

Some breads at ABC Food Corner
Back at ABC Food Corner. The quality of their food can be inconsistent. Sometimes it's bad that I didn't even think it was worth the effort of a posting a picture and writing a couple of thoughts. Ordered naan from them for the first time today. Mutton keema naan.
Spread on the inside with curried minced mutton. Spicy and pretty salty but I thought it worked with the naan which was kinda bready. Gotta try these somewhere else to get a better sensing of how they normally are.
Got a plate of their mutton kothu prata again. The order taker was shifty and wasn't interested in getting what we request correctly so we ended up with chopped mutton instead of the minced variety we had gotten the last time. It's not bad tasting though. In spite of enjoying it, what bothered me was how greasy it was.
