Sweet Heart- Strawberry bun from Green Pumpkin bakery

Tuesday, February 14   keyboard  


13 Feb, 2012

Bakeries are stop-stations for the realization of the imagination. This is because they can produce almost anything they want, with helming an own recipe.
Strawberry Sweetheart (SGD 1.80)

Actualizing a hot pink skin- berry-flavoured dough. It is a light, yeasty mixture, with fruit berry scents. Bread crumb infused with strawberry, one do not need any stuffing (almost). To fit in the snuggly, sappy euphony of Valentine's theme, the interior is (bursting) filled with sweet tart cream cheese. Thick and bounteous up your nose.

P.S. You feel so loved. It all happens when it comes in this shade, this (architecture), for a bakery item.

A Hot Date- Heart-shaped onigiri at Ton Tei

keyboard  


13 Feb, 2012

Pink, and heart-shaped. What else can go higher in the scale for cliché and perfect embodiment for V day.


Valentine's Day Set (SGD 18.90)

Paitan tonkotsu ramen (creamy pork broth), tamago yaki, grilled onigiri and strawberry-chocolate cake. You are not very happy that it is all heart-shaped themed. (Or rather, can't help but to not smile about it.) The pink heart onigiri is flavoured with sakura denbu, that sweetened marinated topping like pulverized sugar.

P.S. Ramen, sides, and dessert. It is elegantly well-balanced and all the elements are adequately made and prepared.

Strawberry + Lychee- The ultimate Valentines flavour

Sunday, February 12   keyboard  


Rainy


This may look like an unpretentious cake, but it is doused in a berry-pink glaze over and over. This is because it will change skin into pumpkin on Halloween, and pink on the 2nd week of February.


Ichigo Sweetheart (SGD 5.80)

Catch it in one week of the year. The bright cherry-red exterior is berry puree, and there are lychee mousse inside. There are chocolate flakes dancing on the cap of the cake.

P.S. Chocolate, and strawberry. While it may seem odd to have both of them paired up as a flavour of a cake, yet because this is the month of Love, you can have your cake and eat it. We can have both the sweet shade of strawberry and the chocolates.

FaNdfuN- Clearly Citrus

Wednesday, February 8   keyboard  


Sunny

Loud as ever, be it its attitude, shades it embraces, final tinge on the effervescence ends; F&N sparking drinks always makes fruits sound like lipstick, delicious.


It is an opportunity not to not rap presenting the rest of its family, Groovy Grape, Outrageous Orange, Cheeky Cherryade, Zesty Zapple, Flashy Fruitade. Clearly Clearly Citrus seems to have settled well.


Clearly citrus, one sees citrus as clear, the non-colour. An ascorbic mix of lemon and lime, stinging sourness together with the crispness of a freshly opened can of bubbles, making it a potent drink. One is sort of reeled behind that the rinds and threads of (citrus) sacs are fibrous, nontheless colourless.

P.S. Clearly citrus its name gives it (intelligently) away. One had been holding on to some hope from the fact of its punch-drunk citrus-coded colour cans and that it is clearly a fact that citrus is yellow and green.

Get Wicked- Ozmopolitic at Fuse, Marina Bay Sands

Monday, January 30   keyboard  


27 Jan, 2012

The green wave, hitting Singapore from MBS to the depths of the mass rapid transport.



For your English to be more jazzy, end everything with z's, instead of s. Razzmatazz. Well actually no, it is the Oz's world here, where everybody has got the descent of green skin. For encore/physical extension of euphoria, soak oneself in the vertical heights of lounge Fuse.


Get into the spirit of the 'wicked witch'. Or start cosmopolitan brewing. Like a memorabilia/Special feature of the show, you can get this green potent concoction in the name of the hit.



Ozmopolitan (SGD 15.00)

The Ozmopolitan actually comes from kiwi/lime, for the emerald tint and taste of cosmopolitan. Giving you a sugar fix without being thin in the liqueur. Good for mulling over the band, Two Tone playing in the bar.

P.S. Cocktails and mocktails, they are not uncommon in electric greens and blues. Rather, it is at its commonest now, evil/World of Oz and all things it is.

Greened at the ends- HK Pan-fried Pau

keyboard  


Night

Bread and buns steamed, green on the edges, how about one that is (pan) fried?


The pan-fried paus (buns) are the not-as-simple buns, unable to come to terms to be 'baked' or 'fried', endeared by Shanghainese and Hong Kongers and gastronomes all over the earth.


Pan Fried Pau (SGD 1.30 ea)

Mouth-wateringly and innovatively, pan-fried pau also come in a web of flavours, not missing out in this increasingly globalised world. A little oil which goes a long way, it is well garnished by sesame seeds and red onions which remedies the bread, the meat which is real chunky and tender, and the "nutty" or "grassy" wafts which comes your way as you detect the bread.

P.S. A step ahead of the patisserie connoisseurs. Green tea can be salty, barbecued. Seasoned. The pan-fried matcha buns felt carried to many airline checkpoints at once, when one is still (rooted) in the same place.

American for a month- American Key Lime Pie

Sunday, January 15   keyboard  


Sunny

For the month of January, JP Pepperdine decided to call for an American theme, sirloin beef and California burgers with american desserts to go with.


Which explains in its chilled cake section, there is this slice of pie that is out of place, when the rest are yellow.


American Key Lime Pie (SGD 5.50)

Official approval for green coloured pie. Key limes are the easily wielded, thickened little limes that you harvest their juice over cooked noodles, or chicken wings. The juice, however, is slightly over the yellow, hence key(?).

P.S. Is what a pie pie without having an interior? The key of the key lime pie is zesty, and pleasant enough with the aroma of limes, but one is not accustomed to the fact that it is squishy, whipped and spongey, like marshmallows? Culture shock, maybe, a key lime pie is fifty percent cloud-like meringue, and crust.
