Brunch - Saturday 26 May 2012





Carrot and Tomato Juice

Carrot & Tomato Juice

Carrot & Tomato Juice with flaxseed
This is my second trial,mixed carrot and tomato juice without sugar, just ass natural honey and lime syrup, and mineral water (you may add ice cube to make it even cooler).

I use one and a half piece of carrot and one piece of tomato. It not taste really good as a juice in a can or   a box. Believe me, it is more healthier than those instant juice out there.

Or you may create another mixture of juice, like strawberry and banana, papaya and guava, kiwi and melon, or you name it !


Brunch at Imperial Chef - Emporium Pluit

Having a brunch with family at Imperial Chef, then take away some delicious foods.






Char Siew Bao (Char Siu Bao/叉烧包)






Cha siu bao or char siu bao is a Cantonese barbecue-pork-filled bun (baozi).

The buns are filled with barbecue-flavored cha siu pork.

They are served as a type of dim sum during yum cha and are sometimes sold in Chinese bakeries


There are two major kinds of cha siu bao: steamed (zheng) and baked (kao). Steamed cha siu bao has a white exterior, while its baked counterpart is browned and glazed.

Cha siu refers to the pork filling; the word bao simply means "bun."
