A breakfast of bread, eggs and cheese


Genuine Bavarian organic sunflower seed rye with eggs. Blue cheese with Raboso wine which I might have gotten from Marketplace. Had grapes/raisins on them. The blue's nice with the eggs and bread. Slight tang, pungent, characteristically salty with a little sweet even. Forgot what's the other one. Might have been Comte from Cheese Ark.

Cold ramen from Tampopo

Tampopo, cold ramen

I've eaten a cold ramen from Tampopo years ago. This one is a bit different. No kurobuta ham and no mustard. Looked a lot less impressive and truth to be told, the experience was not even on par with the ones from Baikohken or even Ohsho. Serviceable but definitely not getting them again. Chilled food doesn't survive delivery well.

Atout at home - lobster bisque, frog legs, cod liver and pork rillettes

Atout, delivery

A lunch delivery from Atout.

Atout, lobster bisque

Which consisted of their delicious lobster bisque. It seems that there're no dumplings in them anymore.

Atout, cod liver

Also those cod livers that we liked. Great with bread.


And some of the pork rillette that the restaurant makes.....

Atout, bread

.......which were good munching with bread like those cod livers. Freshly made baguettes and sourdough loaf.

Atout, frog legs

We got some frog legs too. Nice and garlicky.

Supper from Tsui Wah (翠華)

Tsui Wah (翠華), tea

That would be supper with 茶走 by the way. Admittedly, the reason why it was Tsui Wah was because they pulled through for us by being available past 9.30pm when most of the deliveries have called it a day.

Tsui Wah (翠華), pork chop fried rice

Some greasy fried rice. Rice needs a bit more salt.

Tsui Wah (翠華), luncheon meat and egg sandwich

A luncheon meat and egg sandwich that is superior to most if not all others in this country. I'm pretty sure the bread was steamed to get that soft texture and that was part of the appeal.

Tsui Wah (翠華), fried chicken wings

Decent fried chicken wings.

Tsui Wah (翠華), condense milk buns

Not forgetting their so good condensed milk buns.

It's back

McDonald's, sausage breakfast wrap

It had been a thing when McD closed for a while. It is apparently a thing now that they've re-opened. For reasons.

Home delivery from Sawadee Thai

Sawadee Thai, delivery

Oddled Sawadee Thai. They're a little pricey but the food has always been very decent.

Sawadee Thai, roasted duck red curry

We ordered mostly what we've eaten from the restaurant before - like the roasted duck red curry which looked a lot prettier in the restaurant. Those warm lychees in the curry were still awesome.

Sawadee Thai, tom kha gai

Liked their tom kha gai. Still like it. Gotta remember to tell them lay off the coriander the next time. How could I have forgotten that?!

Sawadee Thai, stuffed chicken wings

Had them stuffed fat chicken wings.

Sawadee Thai, vegetables hokkaido scallops

This was the only dish we've never tried before - seasonal vegetables with Hokkaido scallops it said on the menu. Was that napa cabbage? Scallops were tender and still had a little sweetness in them but I can't tell that they're from Hokkaido. Can anyone?

Sawadee Thai, sweet steamed tapioca

Their sweet steamed tapioca was tasty enough that we still had room for them after the meal. As good as I remembered them.
