Tummy Adventures

As you can probably tell from the photo above, I finally managed to try the famous Fat Cat Ice Cream Bar Charcoal Waffle with Salted Egg Yolk Sauce that's just a stone's throw away from where I live! I went today with Esther after our 2 hour badminton sesh, where I whined incessantly about how hungry I was and basically played like a weakling because I was so 'hangry'. (I heard this on 98.7fm the other day and I think it describes me exactly when I'm hungry- i.e. I get angry when I'm hungry) We decided to get the sea salt matcha ice cream with azuki beans and it was DIVINE. I love Fat Cat and their lovely, innovative flavours that are just so perfectly executed! I definitely recommend this place, they're called Fat Cat Ice Cream Bar and they're located on Bedok North Avenue 2, which is only about a 5 minute walk away from Bedok Interchange/MRT.

Speaking of desserts, I've definitely put on a little weight since I've been back to Singapore. I put it down to all the desserts I've been having (plus my greatly reduced motivation to exercise in the heat and humidity). Strangely enough, I haven't been baking as much as I usually do, even though this time round I do have a good enough oven at home, and there are all the creative ingredients I love to work with readily at hand. I don't know, I guess it could be down to the discomfort of baking in the hot and humid conditions, but I suppose it also has to do with all the amazing, readily available and affordable desserts around to try (and I'm not even halfway done with my Singapore food bucket list yet!)

Either way, I'm not complaining. I love how food encapsulates the best of SG - the traditions, the culture, the exciting creativity, and I'm enjoying every little food adventure I've been, and will continue, having.
