Proceeding to 2nd trimester

Finally I have gone through my 1st trimester safe and sound, therefore I can finally do the things I want to do. Yes there are in fact a couple of things I have in mind but I was advised to hold back all the plans until the 4th month of pregnancy.

I have enrolled myself to many prenatal classes like Antenatal programme, Prenatal Yoga and Aqua fitness classes. It's going to fill up my time therefore I will be preoccupied physically and mentally. Isn't that great?

Oh by the way, someone asked me for the exact location of Botak Jones in Ang Mo Kio. I haven't been there myself..... but managed to get the address so as not to disappoint you. I decided to post all the branches out, (how I wish I earn advertisement fee from Botak Jones...)

ANG MO KIO Branch: Blk 608 AMK Ave 5, Tel: 67551225

CLEMENTI Branch: Blk 325 Clementi Ave 5, Tel: 67741225

TOA PAYOH Branch: Blk 970A TPY North, Tel: 62586225

TUAS Branch: 32 Pioneer Sector 2, Tel: 68989225

DEPOT ROAD Branch: 118 Depot Lane, Tel: 62723225

Frankly I have only visited their stall at CLEMENTI and TUAS, so don't ask me how to get to the other branches, don't ask me how to get there by public transport, don't ask me what's the average waiting time. I hate waiting for my food therefore I usually avoid the peak hours.

I have photos of Botak Jones at Tuas,

Fish and chips Reg: $6.00 Lg: $10.00
This is the most popular item on the whole menu.

Chilly dog with bun , unless you are very hungry if not don't waste the food. It is really huge! $10.00, there are fries with salad, but Jef didn't want the fries so they gave him a huge serving of salad instead.

Random photos of Hawker food I ate this week.

For people who loves beef noodles, this Beef House located at 97 Joo Chiat Road was highly recommended by Mr Sitoh from Makan Sutra.

His recommendations includes beef bee hoon (we ordered koay teow instead) . The beef slices was very juicy and tender and although the soup looked clear, it was really delicious!

Another high recommendation from Mr Sitoh, their beef balls, expect the abnormal, coz their beef balls are very different from the normal ones you eat outside. Their beef balls are big, rough looking, quite hard to sink your teeth into it. Jef likes it a lot but I prefer drinking the soup.We ordered another dish from the menu, but this was not recommended by Mr Sitoh, and after one bite, I know why it wasn't under his recommendation. The taste was blend, the source looked good but it was actually tasteless. Don't try.

Their chilly, looks harmless right? Then you are wrong, it is really SPICY! But Jef and I enjoyed it a lot!
=============================================================

Wan Chai Hong Kong Tea Room located at IMM Jurong 3rd Level.

Fresh Shrimp Wanton Noodles (Dry) $5.00. I like the wanton, it was big and filled with lots of meat and a shrimp. But I was disappointed with the noodles, it too sticky and not Q at all. I believe the chef didn't have the time to rinse the noodles with chilled water ....

Jef waited almost 30mins for this Bake Pork Chop rice, $6.00. Luckily he said it taste quite good, and it comes with a bowl of soup.

What is Hong Kong cafe famous for? Their tea of course, this is Yung Yang $1.20.
