(even though it’s for work…but i think i will still categorize this entry under “the R&R”…cos it was indeed an enjoyable day mah…hehe…)
aiyo…today hor…from morning 10.30am ate non-stop till 7.30pm leh…肚子是圆的loh…然后是很饱的loh…
nevertheless it was really quite a fun, interesting and most “fulfilling” recce day so far for me…we started off from the bus stop in front of kranji mrt station by taking the $2 kranji express which actually brings people into lim chu kang farmway area (neo tiew area)…our 1st station is the sungei buloh wet reserve…our main target is this bliss cafe near the reception counter…we tried the breakfast set, sandwiches, nasi lemak and chicken chop…simple but quite satisfying food…the nasi lemak is something different from the normal kind we find outside…the coconut milk used is lesser and lemongrass is included for the rice…
after our “breakfast”, we took a stroll along the mangrove boardwalk…the last time i was at sungei buloh was like few years ago liao…long time ago loh…sometimes immersing oneself in nature is still a good thing for us lah…not only to relax, enjoy the scenery, but can also breathe in the precious air full of oxygen…
next we walked to gardenasia…and in there is our 2nd cafe – Petals & Leaves bistro…it operates only on weekends and public holidays…there is a small reservoir beside the cafe…and inside…ooh…is a bigger place which is able to hold company functions and wedding banquets…chinese new year is coming soon, thus around end of january there will be lots and lots of CNY flowers on sale loh…the person-IC who talked to us is from the 4th generation… the company has actually been around for 96 years liao i think…
(the fotos below are all taken with my not so good handphone, so think will be not so clear lah…)
Gardenasia:
overview of the place…
千年老树…this is a desert tree, it’s called “The Black Tree” cos it has a totally black trunk…was here for the garden festival held not long ago…imagine that, a tree of 1000 years!!!
Bollywood Veggies is a place i quite like, with good and healthy organic food, and lots of nature stuff to see…

Poison Ivy Bistro:
(these were the food we had…i know the fotos dun look good…but seriously the food there is REALLY WONDERFUL!!! esp my favourite lady’s fingers, so very the nice loh!!!)
(nice and cosy place to have meals…seems like a lot of families like to come here…)
and that’s not all leh…after getting out of lim chu kang, we continued to serangoon area to try 蒙古排骨, asam fish and some other small dishes…
and not forgetting the last stop: cafe op at plaza sing! over there we had some mee rebus and laksa…
so that’s about it…the amount of food i had taken today…goodness!!!
