Finding an eatery that serves jiaozi (Chinese dumpling), which are good (thin yet strong skin), tasty (meat drenched in a savoury sauce resultant from the correct steaming process), and sold at reasonable prices is not easy.

A friend who understands my picky taste buds introduced the jiaozi at Fong Kee for dinner one evening.

Before our main dish came, we were served with a bowl of salad. ...

On Monday, we had dinner in CZ'ZAR, a restaurant that serves local food. We ate rice with mixed dishes such as lemon chicken, sautee beef, vegetables, eggplant, fish head curry.

Last Tuesday, I had dinner at The Prime Society, a restaurant that differentiates itself from other steakhouse restaurants by serving excellent cuts. I had a mixed salad, a bowl of mushroom soup and a 160g Fillet Mignon.

Thou shalt honour thy meat with the finest wine.
Thou shalt not share thy meat.
