One thing about China is...Carrefour is littered ALL OVER this country! haha! There's one "nearby" our place...only 3km from 花木路地铁站 haha!
The thing is, we DIDN'T KNOW THAT. And our house is about 1.5km away from 花木路地铁站...haha! We thought Carrefour is super near 花木路地铁站.
So, being totally unaware of the distance we're gonna travel, the 5 of us decided to WALK THERE FROM OUR HOUSE!! LOL LOL!
After asking for directions and walking for A LOT in the ULTRA COLD WEATHER, we finally reached our destination...AFTER ONE HOUR OF WALKING. KTHXBYE. HAHAHA!
I was actually feeling so cold that I decided to run there...LOL! I ran until I ended up perspiring...LOL! Anyway, upon reaching the area near Carrefour, guess what we saw???
|
Our very own local food chain - ANANAS CAFE!! :D |
I was totally surprised. I thought Ananas was just some common, no-big-deal food chain started at Singapore MRTs and trying to become a booming business. Little did I know, they had franchises in China!! Wowsss. LOL!
Anyway, we didn't attack Carrefour immediately. After walking for about 4.5km, we were famished! So after much searching, we finally decided to eat at this restaurant called 家有好面.
We apprehensively walked in...and we had TOTALLY NO REGRETSSSS!!
|
Me with the 家有好面 menu :) |
Their noodles were good...not excellent though...and the prices were good. Haha. Ok, here's what we ordered.
|
Zhi Sheng with his 麻辣牛肉面 |
Zhi Sheng's 麻辣牛肉面 was REALLY SPICY. I took a mouth of his soup and my tongue was crying out for water alr...LOL! But I think it was SHIOK...Like totally.
|
Chor Seng with his Oyster sauce mushroom noodles |
Chor Seng's noodles were kinda sucky...cos it tasted like Maggie Mee with mushrooms. Haha! His soup was really like all MSG...but the noodles were still good though. Haha.
|
Me & Soon Hwee with our seafood tomato noodles! :) |
By far, I think our choice is the best! :) HAHA! The tomato soup noodles were FANTASTIC! The soup base was nice. Not too sour with tomato taste and not too sweet or salty.
The hum or cockles were an interesting blend to the tomato soup base. Yup, we really enjoyed our bowl of tomato noodles :D
Ok, here comes the BEST PART. The best part is THEIR DESSERTSSSSSSSS!!! :D hahaha. Like totally. We actually ordered it because it was cheap...but after one serving, we made several more servings! LOL!
|
Creme brulee!! |
Their Crème brûlée was AWESOME. The molten layer of sugar on top of the custard-egg base was nicely done. But this wasn't the best dessert though....
The best dessert award goes to their NUT SORBET!! :D It's not really sorbet though...more like some ice-cream thingy...but oh well, that's what their menu said. Haha
|
Nut sorbet!! :) |
It costs only 5元!!! Initially we only ordered one to share amongst us. But after each of us took a scoop of that heavenly delight, sharing was no longer in our dictionary. HAHAHAHAHA!
|
Me, savouring every bit of the nut sorbet :D |
We ended up ordering 3 more if I remember correctly. HAHA! It costs only like SGD$1!!! OMGOSH CHEAPPP and SOOO GOOODDDDD...haha!
And we ordered another dessert soup but I totally forgot what's it called...The other 2 desserts totally stole the limelight. HAHA! Yup, summary of the desserts we ordered...
|
The 3 desserts that got our sweet tooth going crazy! :D |
Yup, after our hearty meal, we headed over to Carrefour to do some shopping :D Surprisingly, the stuff there is REALLY CHEAP.
|
Carrefour "near" Hua Mu Lu metro :D |
2 interesting photos we took at Carrefour...The first one is actually more disgusting than interesting. HAHA! Soon Hwee saw this snake stuffed toy and he was like "哇! 很像dick咧!" and he then went on to pose with it...
|
Soon Hwee made a toy snake turn into something disturbing...haha! |
The next funny one is...we saw a SUPER BIG TEDDY BEAR!! :) It was really cute but when we turned it around we realized...BACKSIDE TEAR!!! LOL LOL!
|
Bear's backside tear!!! LOL! |
Yup, we bought the standard household stuff we needed and all and yup...that's the end of our short journey to Carrefour with my awesome housemates! :D
