• ALMOST hit a Ferrari today

  My dad almost hit a Ferrari today. Really. We were SO CLOSE. It was scary. Imagine how many millions we’d have to pay for damages. If it really happened, we’d have to eat grass for the next few years man. XD

• Typing speed - 71wpm

  71 words

  Typing Test

  So there. That’s my typing speed as of 25th September 2008, 1.50pm. This test is non connected string of words. If I type a proper paragraph I’m usually at about 75wpm, the last I tested early this year. XD

  So maybe it’s not the content. My typing speed has simply deteriorated.

  But looking at my rank… I apparently suck.

  310 points, so you achieved position 50365 of 557219 on the ranking list

  You type 400 characters per minute
  You have 71 correct words and
  you have 0 wrong words

• Old Hong Kong Tea House

  Wednesday, Oct 1, 2008 8:16PM / Standard Entry

  First opened in September 2007, the Old Hong Kong Tea House at Marina Food Loft pledged to serve authentic HK Trolley Noodles.

  So… What is trolley noodles? Why such a name? In the old 1950s in Hong Kong, hawkers pushed their carts (aka trolleys geddit?) around, selling noodles with toppings of braised meat and vegetables, where the customers could pick from a variety. It’s quick and can be akin to the 50s version of fast food.

  What was a quick and dirty meal for the poor has now become something we eat when we feel like it. A novelty. Having just came back from Hong Kong, the memory of the taste of really good trolley noodles was still fresh in my mind when I tried this at Marina Square Food Loft.

  I ordered:
  Braised tofu, large intestines, beef brisket, daikon and another vege. With kway teow. And beef brisket gravy.

  

  Pleasantly surprised by the tenderness of the brisket and the fact that the intestines were well cleaned and the daikon didn’t smell. I raised a little eyebrow when I saw the tiny amount the server picked up of each dish but in Singapore, everything is expensive.

  With beef brisket as one of my selection, it’s imperative that you mix it with beef brisket gravy. This, I was instructed when I was in HK, with some aplomb. the gravy is not salty (thank God) but it lacks a distinct brisket taste to it. It tastes a tad too thick though it did not clump up on my plate. Their specialty extra spicy chili sauce is just so mild.

  Soup that came with the noodles was really quite bad. Extremely salty, which makes me glad I didn’t ask them to make it soupy, like in Hong Kong.

  Overall, it’s average and yet close to the real stuff back in HK. Something that I would go back for, during lunch.

  Old Hong Kong Tea House Marina Branch
  6 Raffles Boulevard #04-101/102
