Days with Love (:
TGIF with the boy who booked out from Tekong! Yes, his new unit will be at Tekong after graduating from SAFTI camp. The initial plan was for me to travel down to Changi village to pick him out from his camp but surprisingly, he booked out way early (like 3.30pm in the afternoon) so we had an impromptu change of plan , supper/ late dinner at Jalan Kayu.
He rode his bike to fetch me! I missed riding on his bike though and was glad that I have a free carpool ride. Somehow, somewhat he went to the wrong direction while riding his bike and we had to detour around looking for direction but it was a good ride partly because of the cooling weather and the accompany.
By the time we reached our destination, it was nearly 10pm and there went my dinner. But its alright, we settled at Selegie 豆花 ( my childhood beancurd). And my fave goes to glutinous rice balls with beancurd. Im like forever ordering this when im here. It comes in Hot/ Cold beancurd. Thinking that cold beancurd upset my tummy, I ordered the hot one. The glutinous rice balls were served in cold which contradicted to the taste. But nevertheless, $2.20 per bowl, I shouldn't request much.
Boy ordered fried fritters to go hand in hand with his beancurd but was served cold and hard. *Face-palm*
Poor thing, throughout the whole supper, we have been indulging disappointing food.
The night was rather young and also with his bike around, we went to enjoy the breeze. He rode me through this ulu allay at seletar road to see some private jet-plane. Yes, its somehow like a mini airport but this plane only service to those who travels around the world privately. I wonder how much does it costs to own a private jet-plane. But the scene was so magnificent! How I wish I could sit on the plane on my own, literally own one! But it was only just a dream!
Saturday was rather a on the dot plan day for us. We literally did not plan anything beforehand. Everything that we did was go par in par with one another. First, while I was out running, I came back with breakfast set nicely on the table. And dear boy, he prepared everything for me and his family member which kinda shocked me. This boy obviously hooked up by cooking, influence by his Mum and Me! Hahaha.
Although it was just a simple instant prata and sausages, I guess I will still give him his credits for preparing my breakfast early in the morning. Im a person who in need of breakfast to start off my day! So thanks dear boy.
The boy accompanied my Mum and I to the hospital to visit my grandmum and he was being nice to buy a nail-clipper, knowing that the nails on my grandmum was too long. Add points for his filial.
After which, we looked at the MRT map to look on places that we could go. Don't know how we ended up at BEDOK, another end for both of us. But yes, we walked at their shopping malls as it just opened recently. Nothing much to shop inside so we had our late lunch there.
I have been lusting after their chicken ever since I scrolled through instagram of people posting it. Yes, it's been over a year! I have seen the branch at Star Vista and it was really tiny. But unexpectedly, the one at Bedok mall was much spacious.
It's still a tad small for a fast-food outlet but definitely bigger than that branch in Star Vista. The menu board showcased the 6 different chicken flavours and that's it. I won't fault you if you think that they only serve drumsticks. Only when you reach the counter and saw the actual menu, do you rush to make last-minute decisions.
Their chicken flavors ranged from Snowing Cheese, Black Sesame, Green Onion, Spicy, Freaking Hot and Original. They have two kinds of set meals: 2pcs Meal ($7.90) and Tenders Meal ($9.90) that comes with a drink, pickled radish($1.90) and Fries that they call Buffalo Sticks(Reg $2.50, LRG $2.90).
Boy and I chose the spicy flavour.
The chicken is surprisingly not oily, even though we are provided with plastic gloves. Just lick the sauce off your fingers if you dine there. Even though we left the chicken out for some time (need to take photos mah), the batter remains crisp, and the meat succulent. Nothing really unique about this sauce as it tasted like the Zi Char sweet and sour sauce. The sauce is more on the sweet side and not much spicy taste was felt.
One weird thing: They will serve you plastic gloves to use when you eat the chicken and it was my first time eating with gloves.

It was a good buy loots for him today as he bought a few apparel from uniqlo. Accompanied and waiting for him to try on his shirt and with my opinion given, he purchased and got his buy. Anyway, uniqlo is still having his singapore sales. The boy bought his shorts for $14.90 only with the help of this uniqlo apps.
While walking around, we found Duke bakery! If you have heard of Duke Bakery, you will not be alien to how good their breads are. Baked Freshly everyday by a group of pâtissier to ensure that they can deliver the freshest breads to their customer.
I would have walked away if they didn't have samples laid out for us to try, simply because it was a new
shop and i wouldn't pay that much money for bread loaves without knowing if it's good or not.
Boy and I bought our first two loaves of bread from Duke Bakery after sampling most of the bread that they display. What I like about the store is that tasting samples are available for all the bread that are being sold.
Choose the chocolate bun which comes with 5 in a packet for $4.50. You will also be shocked to see $8 and $16 worth of the price. But as what old people said "一份钱一分货".
Our last stop of food will be at BEDOK 85. I couldn't remember when was the last time I have been there but the most vivid memories was with my secondary class mates but with the boy here was totally new. Of course, if you are first comer to Bedok 85, you automatically will order their minced pork noodles soup because it was strongly recommended by many mediacorp artists. They even have pictures of them advertising their minced pork noodles. A bowl of $2.50/ $3 is really so worth it! Other than that, their common hawker food like BBQ chicken wings, Seafood, Oyster eggs and Hokkien mee are sold over there too!
That's the end of our BEDOK trip! It was packed with many impromptu activities but im so glad to have you as my food buddy, always follow me to whatever places that I'm craving for. And thanks for spending your whole saturday with me!
Love you.
Till then.
