Crab Feast @ PARKROYAL Plaza Brasserie‏

Crab lovers, be alert!

This post is especially for you. Be awe by the different variety of crabs Plaza Brasserie offers.

From 5 June to 31 August, Plaza Brasserie @  PARKROYAL on Beach Road will be offering the sumptuous Crab Feast under its popular Best of Asia themed from Mondays to Sundays.

Besides the all-time favourite Chilli Crab and Black Pepper Crab, you can look forward to savouring Chef Jackson’s new crab recipes, Crab with Tang Gui, Baked Crab, Nonya Curry Crab, Butter Crab, Stirred Fried Crab with Egg Yolk, Salted Egg Crab and XO Crab.

May the crab feast begins:

Nonya Curry Crab

Spice lovers, you will definitely like this Nonya Curry Crab. The flavour is really HOT! It spiced up my appetite. 

Chilli Crab

Chili Crab is known as our national dish. Many celebrities (Super Junior) who came to Singapore would definitely try chilli crab. How can I miss the juicy crab being whipped up with the chilli gravy?

Crab with Tang Gui

A very unique dish. 

This is my first time trying crab in a soup-based. The crab was soaked in the Tang Gui soup-based and it brings out the sweet flavour.

Salted Egg Crab

My all time favourite - Salted Egg Crab. The crab was coated with the salted egg yolk and I must say the crab meat tasted delectable with the combination. The salted egg lingered on the crab and enhanced the overall flavour.

Black Pepper Crab

Plaza Brasserie offers the fresh and quality crabs to all their consumers, you will never be disappointed. What's more, you get to enjoy 8 different flavours of crab by paying the price of only one person. It's a big steal right?

The different variety of sushi collection. 

I had sushi to kickstart my buffet feast.

Fried prawns.

Anything that is fried is good.

Other than crabs, you can enjoy other hot varieties such as Stir-Fried Squid with Celery in “XO” Sauce, Oatmeal Prawns, Nonya Curry Chicken, Eight Treasure Duck, Steam Fish in “Hong Kong” Style, Fried Baby Kai Lan and Crabmeat Fried Rice, Crispy Soft Shell Crabs and Braised Sea Cucumber with Roast Pork and Mushrooms.

The prata is a must-try over at Plaza Brasserie.

They offered a variety of flavours for prata such as plain, egg, chocolate, durian, banana and etc.

I decided to go for 1 original (egg) and 1 special (chocolate).

The mouth-watering chocolate prata.

The crispy prata was not oily compared to those I usually had in the neighbourhood. And I just had the chocolate prata plain without dipping into any sauce.

 

Despite how full I am, I will always make room for dessert.

My meal will not be complete without dessert.

If you have a sweet-tooth like me, do remember to savour their range of delicious desserts ranging from Sweet Potato, Water Chestnut, Bubur Cha Cha, Mini French Pastries, Chocolate Truffle and Cheese Cake, Assorted Ice-Creams, Fresh Fruits, Almond Beancurd, Chin Chow, Rice Pudding with Vanilla Sauce, American Cheesecake, Chocolate Fondue served with Fresh Fruits, Dried Fruits and Marshmallows.

Have not seen some of them for a long time. It was a nice catch up that night.

A Trip to Singapore Zoo Part 2

Continuing my post on Singapore zoo, we are now embarking on the next half of the zoo:

Wow, within an hour, we had already finished half of our journey.

Next, we arrived at Rainforest Kidzworld.

Wow, it was the kids' heaven where they had a splashing good time in a watery playground, spend time with farmyard animals.

At the pony stable.

They looked so poor thing, they had to be separated one in a cubicle.

The cute little goat came close to us. 

There were actually so many little goats.

The zookeeper treated them really good. He hugged the little goats and patted them.

The little boy was feeding the goat with some grasses.

I wanted a shot with the goats too. 

The weather was blazing hot. I need to seek some shelter.

Finally we found a shelter.

We were now at the African Penguin zone.

Surprisingly, the African Penguins like warm weather. All of them were up sun-tanning. 

Found one swimming in the deep water. Did I mention before that penguin is my favourite species of birds.

Both of us had a great time visiting the animals. 

Missing the old good time when we hang out together.

The place offered a magnificent view of Seletar Reservoir.

Living in a fast paced society, we always have to quicken our pace in order to catch up with everybody. But sometimes in life, we need to take a break too and take a look at the beautiful surrounding around us. 

We were now at Elepants of Asia waiting for the animal show.

Despite being there 20 minutes earlier than the showtime, we could not found any seat left. So we stood all the way - hot and tiring.

Sit back and enjoy the pictures:

Catch the elephants in action.

Providing unobstructed views of the elephant’s playground, this exhibit is equipped with a number of enrichment devices such as play logs to challenge our elephants physically and to stimulate them mentally.

The residential elephants were all female. They came from Sri Lanka, Malaysia and Indonesia.

The elephants were all trained in Sri Lankan language.

All of them were moving into the water and came close to the audience.

I just saw the zookeeper threw the whole papaya into the elephant's mouth. Wow, that was how big their mouth is.

The front few rows were warned as it was the splashing zone.

The area was fronted by a generous water pool where the audience might find the elephants taking a dip or playfully showering each other, even between shows!

Look, the audience came prepared. Umbrella defence.

Time to see the elephants at work. 

See how it balanced walking on a log.

The elephants were all tired and they went to sleep except for the last one.

And when the other three elephants woke up, she went to sleep.

So funny.

On our way down, we met the grey kangaroo.

It could hop around with great speed. 

The kangaroo was happily eating the grass and ignored us.

Aww, the white tiger was sleeping. Too bad, I couldn't see strolling about or lounging around.

The last animal, Babirusa.

The word "Babi" suggests, it belongs to the pig family. Babirusa is actually a Malay word, it means pig-deer.

We had completed our zoo trail. We left Singapore Zoo with aching legs and sweat all over.

Nevertheless, it was still a fulfilling trip. I love weekend like this where I spent quality time with my friend.

Look forward to weekend.

Introducing DEFENCE ELIXAGE

DEFENCE ELIXAGE Satin - Regenerating Cream

Regenerating Cream is used as day treatment to promote skin’s natural regeneration mechanism, enhance repair processes and counter damage from free radicals. Skin is left toned, smoother, radiantly alive and appears as regenerated: wrinkles are softened and facial features are more defined.

Nutri-Regenerating Cream on the other hand is used as night treatment. It provides nourishment and regeneration to skin, reduces fragility of mature skin and promoting skin renewal.

DEFENCE ELIXAGE Contour - Eye-Lip Balm

Our eyes are the most delicate areas, hence it needs extra care to prevent wrinkles from appearing. Our lip contour areas need nourishment as well to prevent dry lip. The eye-lip balm provides an immediately perceived filler effect. The exclusive Subli-F.A.C.E ingredient complex works on all ageing signs, leaving skin toned and supple.

DEFENCE ELIXAGE Elxir - Regenerating Fluid

It improves product texture and, especially, works to hide wrinkles better. Day after day, skin appears smoother and more compact, expression lines are softened and the face is left radiantly alive.

DEFENCE ELIXAGE Intensive - Anti-Ageing Mask

It provides strong moisturisation and radiance. It gives an immediate feeling of comfort, with skin feeling smoother and firmer. Fine lines are attenuated and face is left with a healthy glow. 

Singapore idol, Tabitha Nauser, is the ambassador of BioNike. She had shared with us her love for BioNike's products.
