2 chefs eating house (双厨菜馆) // Creamier ice-cream
A plan was made on Saturday evening with Joel Ang to have dinner together and also to celebrate Bf's belated birthday so I causally asked him to ask around if anyone wants to join us for this dinner. Surprisingly, Francis, Kannan, Stitch tagged along for this dinner and it was a good gathering for the men as they haven't been seeing each other for long. Topic for the whole evening was about army ( as usual).
With the number of people attending, I thought that it would be better to host at Zi Char eatery than cafes/ restaurants so I made this effort to search for good Zi Char places. Having to say that 2 chef eating house appeared most on site recommending of their Butter Pork Ribs so why not give it a try?
The first ever outlet was opened at commonwealth which is inaccessible for all of us but i'm glad to see that they have opened another outlet at Sin Ming and with Joel being our driver for the night, travelling was made easy. So thankful for that!
We were there at around 6.15pm and we would expect crowd and queue starting in but unfortunately it was still alright, we managed to get seats with the help of Stitch who arrived earlier than us and "chope" a table.
Pictures captured were mainly all their signature dishes other than that, the rest of the usual dishes that you will often order at Zi Char.
Drunken Cockles with lots of garlic: It was solely ordered by Stitch as he saw alot of rave reviews about it. So sorry not to elaborate more because all except him didnt tried this dish. It looks so raw to me ( I don't take raw food though!)
Beancurd with Minced Pork Meat
The uncle was trying hard to push the sales to us. He insisted that this was the best beancurd dish that most of the customer will come back for. I thought he was bragging but hey yeah, all of us think that it was yummy! Especially the marinated minced pork that went well your white rice. Just like Taiwan "Lu rou fan".
The Vegetable with Egg, Salted Egg and Century Egg
A healthier choice if you want something light. The mixtures of 3 eggs acts like a bowl of soup but it is hard to scoop up the pile of vegetables. Once you lift it up, the whole vegetables will be scooped from the bowl. This dish can tad to be salty.
Butter Ribs/Milk Powder Rib
Not to say that, this is what I am here for. From where I am sitting, I can glance through and every area will have this dish on the table. The pork was garnished with milk powder and curry leaves and therefore it tastes like cereals. Some might not like it due to the strong smell of "milk powder". Some will enjoy it because of the salty-ness. As far as I concern, I preferably will come back again for this dish. It was sad that it ran out fast ( I only had 1 piece of their pork meat!) Not to mention, this plate can be expensive ($16).
We ordered 3 more dishes ( Long beans, deer meat and sweet and sour pork). Those are normal, nothing special to talk about, All our bills act up to $90 and with the share of 6 person, each have to fork in $15, Affordable or not, I don't really know? But I guess this is worth the trip!

I always thought that only girls will go for dessert after meal but this time round, one of the guy requested to have dessert after next. HAHA! My tummy was so full with all the good pampered food but still I followed them to creamier for some light dessert.
When you past by creamier, the only thing that came to your mind would be their waffles and the guys do have space for that. The shop was full and we ended up having our waffles under a void deck. Sounds like we were abandoned but it was a fun experience to walk your waffles from the shop to the void deck. By the time it reached, the ice cream has already melted.
I opted for double scoop of ice cream to share ( thai milk + hazelnut) while the rest and their waffles. They chatted through the night about their life and I was there to listen to their stories.
It wasn't that boring as im used to hear real life army stories from different group of friends.'
So till then for our Saturday night activities.
