有网友说我很久没用英文书写。想想也是,烂英文退步了许多。要练习练习。
Was helping WD to be their food panelist for TRG, went to a few prominent Chinese restaurants for the past few months and so far my favourites are Crystal Jade Jiang-Nan at Takashimaya and My Hunble House. It was a pity that i couldn’t take any photos of Jiang-Nan as there were other panelists joining the tasting too. pai seh.

My Humble House was my last tasting with TRG and it was really relaxing as there were only Jas and myself. (woo hoo! can talk cock!)
When the time we stepped into the restaurant i can feel lots of staring from some of the taitai that were having lunch with their buddies. Not sure whether is 自己敏感 or i do really look young and unprofessional, and “poor”?

This is a welcome soup or we can called it a “jelly” that tasted like herbal soup. It is very typical “Sam Leong’s modern cuisine” style. I tried this during a media lunch at Jade, Fullerton Hotel. Though modern cuisine and fusion are always not my liking, but i would say the taste and texture of this “jelly”, are not bad.

Fell in love with this Seafood soup in coconut! Ingredients are just scallops, vege and prawns. The best thing is the aroma of the fresh coconut was pretty fragrant. You can scoop out the flesh from coconut and eat together with the soup as well. The soup is simply divine! Around $22 per serving.

Crab roe chawanmushi. Can’t see any egg inside isn’t it? Ya, it was covered by the broth-gravy. And yes, the crab claw is quite small….. haha. Price is $18.

My Humble House signature’s braised seafood mee sua. Purposely ordered this as mee sua is kind of difficult to be cooked in braise form. Think it is the best choice to see the “kungfu” of the chef. There are prawns, fish fillets and seaweed. Mee sua is quite chewy, which i think it is quite up to my standard, but i feel there is a little too starchy…. maybe the chef added in too much cornstarch?
######
This is my portion. The whole thing, if i’m not wrong was SGD22, quite a huge portion for one serving. Well, the broth / gravy is nice, and the mee sua is still chewy and “eat-able”. But not so into my liking.
######
Jas liked this black pepper pan fried beef. Yes, i admit that the diced beef is really tender inside and can taste the black pepper is fully marinated into the chunks. It is around $28. Well done chef.
######
Time to order dessert. One thing that i’m really impressed other than the interior is the poetic menu. 咬文嚼字。
######
I ordered this vanilla ice cream and pulut hitam served with mango & pumpkin soup, $8. Two thumbs up! scrumptious man!
######
Jas ordered this Tang yuan with almond soup, taste good as well but rather steep, selling $6.
######
Ok, that is the interior of My Humble House…. not really dare to take photos as there were lots of tai tai beside us….
The bill came to SGD120 plus, which TRG has capped us to spend below SGD150.
ok 任务成功!
Also found out they have Lunch Set menu which is quite affordable, $28++
