food review of the week
featuring....*drum rolls*
shami banana leaf delights @ yishun
the queue never ceased when i went there for dinner just now.
50% of the people at the foodcourt (yes who says all foodcourt food are mediocre!) were there relishing the tasty briyani rice covered in thick, spices-infused curry gravy, all served on a piece of banana leaf.
i had the chicken and fish briyani sets (no, i didn't eat up everything myself. hail the power of sharing). the curry chicken drumstick was soft and tender and what is indian food without our good friend, papadum?

but sadly, the curry batang fish was a disappointment. it was too small in proportion to the price i paid. plus, it wasn't soft and flaky enough for me to enjoy. fish is best when it flakes thinly.

still, the herb-y briyani rice with the thick (but not coyingly thick) curry gravy is enough for me to forget about the disappointing fish.

the serving portions are huge so i suggest if you're going as a trio, you can share 2 sets, provided the trio is made up of girls.
men, i believe you all can have a set each because of your pitless stomachs.


hamsters
i hope yue finds her hamster soon. it has been missing for 3 days and i know she's worried sick.
i have been through such trauma of losing my hamster 9 years ago and i wouldn't want to experience it again.
