Easter hunt.

Yes, I haven't updated my food blog in a while. No, I'm not lazy. I prefer to say that I'm uninspired by the food around me. None of the food around me seem to evoke any sense of awe anymore. So, to get that feeling again, Wendy and I decided to go to Johor Bahru to look for a pastry that kept appearing in her mind: Egg tarts!

Don't underestimate the taste of these egg tarts. Wendy actually HATES egg tarts. But this single one egg tart found in JB actually won her heart over and stayed in her mind ever since. However, we had only very limited clues of where the egg tarts were bought. Therefore, acting on little clues obtained from her father's accounts, we set out to find the Ultimate Egg Tart!

The clues which we had:
1) Bought in "XX Garden" -XX花园. From conversations with colleagues, we realised that the place may not be a garden but the name of a place, which we, on further probing, assumed to be Malaysia Garden-大马花园
2) A place where Singaporeans go to eat seafood.
3) Plastic bag and packing had no indication of the name of the shop.
4) Egg tart's crust is not brittle yet crumbles at the the instant of biting it. The egg is moist, soft, not too sweet and is creamy in consistancy. The egg has a yellow surface but its centre is pale yellow in colour. The combination of the crust and the egg can only be described as heavenly!

In other words, it is the BEST EGG TART we've ever tasted!!!
With these information, can you find this treasure at the end of the rainbow? You should try, it's very fun!

The market's movin

Didn't post for a long time liao. But now that my exams are over, I can finally continue blogging.

I went to Corporation Drive Food Centre today for some fish soup and realised that finally the market will be relocated to its new premise nearby. They'll close officially on the 8th of May. In case you have no idea where I'm talking about, almost all the food that I've talked about in my previous posts comes from there. Haiz, all the history gone overnight just like that. Thank goodness I took some photos for rememberance.

Anyway, not all the stalls have gone and luckily, my Lucky Fish Bee Hoon stall is still open for business. And I have to say that it still tastes quite good. I'll update the location of the stalls once they have moved into the new permises. Just wished you guys have tried the food...
