For our honeymoon, we went to Singapore. We, of course, went to the usual places visitors go to - including the malls. :D In one of our mall adventures, we chanced upon Asian Kitchen. We were already very hungry from all the walk so we decided to look no further and try it out.
We ordered their beef fried rice (sorry - can't really recall what it's called now), chili crab, and some xiao long bao.
The rice was good! One can eat it on its own actually. It was very flavorful and spicy - and we both like spicy foods. :)
Chili crab - We decided to try this mainly because we're in Singapore and we were told chili crab is a must try. I am not a fan of crabs - they are yummy, yes, but eating them is too troublesome (my sister Kim, who is very patient and skilled in de-shelling - is there such a word?!? - crabs and is nice enough to give me some, can attest to this) This one I loved though because the shells are so soft you can actually eat all of it! And the sauce was just right - not too salty but not bland. One could really taste the crab flavor :)
Xiao Long Bao is sort of like siomai with soup inside. Was able to first try this in Sydney. And when we learned that it is available in Singapore (and then we also found out we have it here in Manila now - Crystal Jade and Lugang! - late I know…), we didn't think twice on ordering it. I forgot to tell my hubby about the hot soup inside so he sort of scalded his tongue when he took a bite - but that didn't change the fact we enjoyed it! :)
Asian Kitchen - not sure if it's a fast-food chain in Singapore but we had decent food there. :) We didn't order dessert there though - because we found out about mr. bean! We love the soy ice cream!!! We made it a point to buy some everyday! :)
