As long as someone else does the cooking.Originally posted by littlestream:Aiyoh, pai seh, why did I think it was Regina???
But Fatum.......I'm gonna sound like a parrot but here goes "I AM SO IMPRESSED." Wow, sure sounds like fun. Okay, I have that steamer thingy that allows the natural juices to drip down to the rice. Okay, okay, for sure then, I will try. I'll let you know the outcome ah.
MG.......are you game for this "adventure"?
(In case you have not already realized, I'm a great "consumer," but not a great "producer," when it comes to Asian cuisine.

sorry, i've been pretty busy the past few days with school..Originally posted by littlestream:Hey, no ice hockey fans here!
Anyways, stayed up to watch the Leafs and sadly they lost. Hope Sundin is good to go for the next game.
Eh, Ben1406....no support Leafs ah?? And where are you???
Share your culinary experiences here ley. Or shall I start a dedicated thread?
maple leafs ? well, i support the NY Rangers when i was back in sg but hmmm... going to the rogers center to support the rangers will not be a good idea.. maybe it's time to switch sides.
culinary expericences ? well, ill soon start on a thread on making simple home dishes.. don't expect too much chinese food though cos i suck at making it ! -
ahahaha ! i haven't met another ASCian yet here in ontario..Originally posted by Fatum:Gosh ! ... you guys are everywhere ! .... -

Kum siah.Originally posted by coffeeortea:WAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! nice stuff there littlestream =D, havent seen something close to that in 9 months since i left sg. good stuff good stuff.. i might drive down to a town near toronto to visit a friend in winter break if the gas prices allow me.. and maybe we can meet up or something =D
What's the name of the town that you friend lives in? Eh, Ontario very BIG leh. But it will be neat to meet up with fellow S'poreans from forum and in foreign land. If only MG and Fatum can join. Well, Ben1406 and I are hours away from each other. His part of the world has a sizeable S'poreans pop. So, I am sure he is feeling much at home very quickly. -
Alamak, pai seh ley.....Originally posted by SydneyLibrarian:Wah, littlestream! Are you sure you don't have a 2nd job as chef in some restaurant or something? That looks delicious!! Your hubby also chef leh. I saw the pic you posted. Very encouraging leh. Thanks for the compliments, nevertheless. -
But can you get the liao or not? Perhaps eh? My best friend lives in NZ too and she is a great cook.Originally posted by alexkusu:come little stream..share sum of ur secret recipes
No.........don't even think about it. Cannot introduce. She is MY age!!! -
Wah, you also ah???Originally posted by ben1406:I was from ACS..
It will be a small world if one of you are friends of my nephew. Yeah, he was from there too. All of 10 years before heading to UK for studies. -

And Fatum.......you do sound like a good cook eh? -
Just a casual observation (and perhaps I'm stating the obvious): the extent to which Singaporeans, both at home and abroad, hold local food dear to their hearts can be seen by the number of posts on that subject. It is the one passion that binds Singaporeans together worldwide.

Hee hee.......hello, MG.

Wah, tired *stretching arms*.......after a long weekend!
You know what I overheard in church last week? One guy said :
"When Canadians gather, they talk about the weather. When Chinese gather, they talk about making money. But when S'poreans gather, they talk about food."
How? True? -
Very true! Just look at the participants of this forum!Originally posted by littlestream:Hee hee.......hello, MG. Good morning.

Also, Canadians aren't the only ones who gab constantly about the weather. The overwhelming majority of casual conversations in MN begin with, "So, whad'ja think about this here crazy weather?" -
it's one of the places on earth where not dressing for the weather can kill ! ...Originally posted by Meia Gisborn:Very true! Just look at the participants of this forum!

So, it IS a North American thing. -
Ha ha.....Yeap, I always check the weather network before heading out. But I don't know about you guys. Saturday evening sure felt like winter. Or have I been spoilt by the hot summer?Originally posted by Fatum:it's one of the places on earth where not dressing for the weather can kill ! ... -
MG, was it in '94 or '95, it was so cold, the cows had their ears dropped off due to frost bite. Do you remember that news? Was it in MN or Philadelphia?
