CNY Dinner @ Seafood People

We really love Seafood People! So, for our Chinese New Year Dinner, we decided to eat there. Good thing the location of this great eating place is just a walking distance away from us.

We ordered our favorite Prawn Paste Chicken, Seafood Fried Rice and Seafood Hor Fun.

Our Square Buns waited for us for our dessert.

I can’t remember how many CNY’s Doms and I celebrated here in SG. All I know is that I enjoy CNY here and I’m we’ll experience more in the future.

The Start of the Year of the Dragon

I never really knew that Chinese New Year is a big deal to countries like Singapore. Well, majority of Singapore’s population comprises of people from mainland China. So naturally, Chinese New Year is a big deal to them.

Last Saturday, Doms and I went to Chinatown just to see the food stalls and decorations that they have for the coming year of the dragon. The place was so jam-packed! I had to push among the crowded streets just to see the store that sells white blouses.

I haven’t uploaded my photos from that adventure. I’ll do it tonight.

Anyway, we saw these jars of Chinese goodies in our office pantry after lunch. We were surprised to see the wide variety of cookies and tarts that “they” want us to eat. Good for me I love the pineapple tarts!

Seafood People

In nights where Doms and I are too lazy to prepare dinner, we often choose to eat in hawker centres near our place. So, last Friday, we decided to eat at Seafood People.

Seafood People is located at the Jalan Membina Hawker Centre near Tiong Bahru. When we arrived, we were handed with menus of the dishes they cook at your pointing.

We also ordered Seafood Tom Yum soup which was divinely spicy but nice.

Our total bill was just around 13.50SGD which was great and just the right amount. We will definitely try the other dishes when we come back.

Pinas Treats for My Colleagues

I like giving away stuff from the Philippines to people here in the office. It’s like I’m sharing with them part of the Philippine culture. So, for my recent Pinas vacation, I gave away 2 of my fave desserts from the P.I., Flat Tops, Choki Choki and Max’s Caramel Bar and Tomi Tomi Corn Chips.

Flat Tops is one of the things that I miss from the Philippines. The Milk Chocolate Candies are just right for my taste buds. It’s not too sweet and not too milky. It kinda has a “chalk” taste but it makes it better.

My boss loves the Max’s Caramel Bar. She even asked me where I buy these stuff so if her husband goes to Manila for a work conference or whatever, she can ask him to buy her these bars. Who wouldn’t like these bars?

The Choki Choki and Tomi Tomi are my pasalubongs to Efren. I wasn’t able to take pictures of it but these are great Pinas treats as well.

Next time, I’m planning to give them Cloud 9, Chicharon ans Lengua De Gato and Pastillas.
