Lao Ban Dou Hua

Brother was raving about lao ban soya beancurd and said that he would get a portion for me to try the next time he goes. He brought one back. Very interesting soya beancurd, it feels like some kind of soya custard as opposed to the standard beancurd. The custard is made alongside with the sugar syrup so the mixture is sweet in itself. It was kinda nice but I feel that it is too sweet for me and I felt kinda guilty chugging half of it down. 

Normally I would simply just eat the top portion of the beancurd and leave the sugar syrup at the bottom. That said, I was rather impressed by the texture as it was milky and soft. Would go for it again, but I will definitely need to share a portion with a dessert partner.

Passion fruit @ Tiong Bahru NTUC

Passion fruit is one of my favourite healthy snack that I can eat anytime. I realise that Tiong Bahru's NTUC always have a ready stock of this fruit and they are really cheap. SG$4 or less for 10 pieces. Just chill the fruit, slice it into half and use a spoon to scoop. Yummilicious. Passionfruit is also good as a really healthy dressing for salads due to its viscosity and texture. Try it! :)

Pan seared scallops on a bed of sweet pea mash

Decided to make myself a scallop dinner. Very low in calories, very easy to make. Guilt free indulgence. Am feeling so proud of myself.
