The skin was crispy and tasty and the juice and oil from the meat will ooze out when you sink your teeth into it. Haha! It was sooo awesomely blissful that I couldn't even open my eyes for the picture...haha!

If you're wondering what happened to my change in taste in colour, those pink gloves are NOT MINE. LOL! They're Xuan Qi's. HAHA!
If you're wondering why I'm wearing her gloves, it's because she's wearing mine! HAHA! Her hands were freezing off so I offered her mine and wore hers...HAHAHA! I think I expanded it and made it a size bigger. LOL LOL!

| Li Seng, Xuan Qi & myself :D |

| MEEEE! :D LOL! |

We were taking photo at this random statue when suddenly an old couple came to us and asked us for money. They told us they came from far away and were poor and asked for 8元 from us so they can eat a proper meal.
Li Seng gave them his spare coins of like 2元 and I gave them 6元. Li Seng gave me the "He could be a cheat and asked 5 other people previously" face. HAHA! But he reserved his thoughts and said "Nevermind, you're a very kind person." LOL!
6元 is like SGD$1.20 only...so...aiya, even if he's a cheat, at least I blessed an elderly couple right? Haha! LOL!
Anyway, if you haven't noticed, I haven't mentioned Jamie & Zhi Sheng...that's because they didn't join us :( Haha! Jamie and Zhi Sheng went to shop and pak tor at 七浦路 so Soon Hwee, Chor Seng & I decided to meet up with the Hengs...haha
So after our lil dessert break and shopping spree, we headed to 豫园 for dinner :D Yes we're back at 豫园 but this time, we're back at night and with different company :D Previously, it was with our roomies; this time it's with Xuan Qi and Li Seng. :D
Yup, the night view of Yuyuan Gardens is SOOOO MUCH NICER at night! :D We should've just went at night, like totally. Haha! Let's roll the pretty night pictures :D

Isn't the night view of the place so pretty?? :D Haha! The buildings are all outlined with lights and brightly litted. Wow, really a world of a difference compared to the day view. Haha.

Remember the 南翔小笼包 restaurant had a lil' pond and "villa" beside it? The night view of it is like 10 times prettier! :D

The previous time we went, we ate inside the restaurant. This time, we ate from the same restaurant, but we bought their express 小笼包. They had a lil' counter at the bottom of the restaurant like McDonald's where they have a lil' booth/counter selling ice-cream kinda thing.
The 小笼包 was super cheap! It was like 20元 for 16 pieces or something like that. Haha. The thing about their express 小笼包 is...the quality of the 小笼包 is not as good as when you eat in the restaurant.
The express 小笼包's skin was super thick and the meat filling was not so succulent and it was not oozing with hot, oily and tasty soup. So when you sink your teeth in, the soup doesn't burst out into your mouth.

I guess there's a price to pay when you pay a low price. Haha! Nevertheless, we had a great bite :) And of course, we went on to whack the 小吃.
 |
| 生煎包 :D |
 |
| Takoyaki balls :D |
Here's the BEST DISH we tried out of all the 小吃 we tried...CHILI OIL GLASS NOODLES!! :D It was chokingly spicy! :D
 |
| Chili Oil Glass Noodlesssss! :D |
It was those super soft transparent noodles SOAKED in CHILI OIL! YEASHHH! CHILI OILLLL!! HU-LEE-YAAAA! I took a mouth of it and my throat was horrified. LOL!
When I said it was chokingly spicy, I meant it literally. HAHA! Here's the best chili oil noodles choking picture...haha!
 |
| Li Seng choking on the chili oil noodles! :D LOL |
We also did a lil' shopping while whacking the 小吃 actually. But, I didn't buy anything. LOL. Thrifty Jonavan in the house! LOL!
Yeah, lemme end this post with a lil' reminiscing of our FOOT '12 days :D The 3 DOMA peeps in this group of 5 went to take photo with DOMO! :D

| DOMA-ians Chor Seng, ME and Xuan Qi with our mascot DOMO!! :D |
