Ramen and Sandwich on a Friday

Ramen with black soup base

A few weeks ago I went to a Ramen shop at Star Vista for lunch. The ramen sold at that shop was slightly different from the one that I have eaten before. I ordered black pork ramen with a black soup base. I have always wondered how the black soup base would taste like compared to the normal soup base that I have tried before.

It wasn’t as tasty as I imagined that it would be. In fact I found the broth a bit too oily for my liking and nothing really spectacular. I guess that many ramen shops in Singapore are simply overrated and certainly not worth the $16-$18 for a bowl.

Sandwich and Soup

During a lunchtime date with R I tried out this set meal at Greenwich Shopping Mall. It had a sandwich shop similar to Subway. I ordered a turkey ham sandwich and a soup. The sandwich was really tasty but the soup was a bit too cheesy for my liking.

What have you been eating this week?

the cake

I’ve been thinking about doing a non baked cake for awhile. After being tempted seeing Karen’s Tiramisu which she baked a few months back I decided to make my own. I didn’t really fancy having coffee in a cake so I substituted it with hot chocolate instead . I used a round 9 inch springform pan and chilled the cake for approximately 8 hrs. It tasted heavenly but was a bit too “rich” for me to eat it by myself. The kids did take a small piece each and we shared the cake with our neighbour and her kids.
