This year, to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, we bought a box of Champage Truffle and White Chocolate Ganache mooncakes from Fairmont Hotel. Unlike the traditional mooncakes, which were baked and had salted duck egg yolks at the center, these had a soft, pale yellow snowskin and a champagne truffle and white chocolate ganache center. I thought the alcohol wouldn't go well with the lotus paste filling but it turned out to be a lovely combination. It was good!
My officemate, Karen, brought me a couple of traditional mooncakes from her cousin's bakery. We had them for breakfast one morning and they went well with brewed coffee. (Since we love having coffee anyway, we decided to buy a filter drip coffee maker.)
We celebrated Rina's birthday at our favorite sushi place - Sushi Tei! We sat beside the conveyor belt so we had a fun time waiting and picking which plates we'd get. We also ordered our (B and I) favorite Dragon Roll and Golden Roll.
They loved the Golden Roll more, but I loved the dragon roll. The contrast of the avocado's creaminess to the crispy fried prawn was just divine.
Newly permed Nell had scallops, which we tried too. They were delicious!
We also had fried squid, sushi with fried prawn and ebi tempura! Yum yum yum!
And Erwin came too!
The people that kept B sane when he first came to Singapore
