i'm a girl who have stepped into the unknown called work and decided that schooling is better. i also have a propensity to go crazy over fried chicken wings and simply love to squeeze and over-feed my obese hamsters. my blog is a mode for expressing my love for food, movies, travel and shopping!

brown food (doesn't really sound appetising, but it is)

you know, after uploading all the photos of lailai family restaurant, i just realised they are in shades of brown! absolutely no variation of colour except for some occasional greens. oh well, that just tells you about how high the fibre content is.


my one love! delicious red milk tea. this is actually shaken, unlike the common practise of just adding syrup to milk tea. the tea is without artificial flavourings, rich and frothy. goes down your throat with the little bits of pearls like a dream .


their signature stewed beef noodles. following lily's habit, i asked for the thinner noodles (kind of like mee kia) and i found that it compliments the beef and soup much better. some people might not like stewed beef because the parts usually come with tendon. you don't have to worry here, the beef comes in chunks of meat.


braised pig intestines! the restaurant serves it braised or deep fried. i nornmally go with the braised one. unlike the ones you have in kway chap, this is lighter and not as salty.


salt and pepper chicken. my sis always orders this. have no idea why. find it very salty (as the name suggests) and it's so deep fried my throat itches just thinking of it.


shredded chicken mee sua. never had the chicken one before, as expected i go for the pig intestines one. still prefer the pig intestines one. however, if you were to compare this dish with the ones prepared by shilin night market, this is much better. more noodles and the sauce is not as watery.

just in case you're wondering why am i eating so much when i'm having food poisoning? i'm recovering and i didn't eat much! took a little here and there from my mum and i was already quite full. can't wait to be back in full force.
