Food porn

I only have food pics today...hence the title.

Found it so difficult to wake up this morning, I don't know if it's a combination of irregular sleeping hours or the weather- which suddenly decided to turn all warm and summer-y. Waking up late on a Sunday does have its perks though (but I missed church!)...yum cha! Restaurants don't open till 11am so the interval between when I rolled out of bed and ended up seated at a table at Crystal Jade was literally....half an hour? Mom&Dad next time we have to try yum cha at Crystal Jade...the food there is very good and they have a bigger variety compared to Sharkfin House.

Xiao Loong Bao

Custard bun with salted egg yolk

Mango pudding

Came home and felt soooooooo lethargic that I didn't even know it was possible. Persuaded the boy to get some macarons- he spoilt me yet again by agreeing to take me to Cafe Vue for some macarons hee hee.

The one that's purple is Violet flavoured!

And I present to you...a meal wholly prepared by the boy (except for the soup and rice) but kudos to him...top effort :)

(Hopefully) very healthy rice with 3-4 different grains. Had to be pre-soaked 3 hours prior to cooking

I used dehydrated/ dried lotus root and it doesn't taste similar to the frozen variety but still, the soup was ok. The dried lotus roots expanded 500% in the pot though hahaha...they became giants.

Made some banana bread with an overripe banana I had sitting in the house. Mmm..food for morning and afternoon tea at work then.

Back to work tomorrow and I'll be out at a client. Monday blues are unavoidable!
