So in love w/ Japanese food these days! Every single meal I crave for something Japanese. The rice, the tempura, chawanmushi, Japanese curry, mentaiko anything.. I swear these Japanese are geniuses.
So I thought I shld start learning to make some Jap food myself, & started off smth easy, which is to make sushi! Ytd night was my second try, and I thought I did not bad considering how much help I had! Took 4 hrs to finish up everything, but it was worth it. :)
I really like it that it's not really a hassle to create simple sushi. Just the rice, & prepare ingredients you'd like to add in.
Since I love prawns, I decided to get frozen cooked shrimps just for something different! Yes, I knw Japs hv shrimp sushi but these aren't the type of shrimps they use for sushi so I guess it was kinda creative to think that up, wasn't it?????? Heh heh.
So there you go, the ingredients I started off w/.
After ingredients are all mixed up w/ pepper, salt & mayo!
See the seaweed-seasoned rice??? Learnt abt this seasoning from Suzhen whn she brought sushi she made to sch one fine day. It is AMAZING. Just seaweed, sesame seeds & a few other things and BAM. The rice taste even btr!

Started off w/ making 'Fan tuan' b/c I was excited to try out the mold that my mom bought for me!

The final product. ^^
As I was telling you how much I love Jap food...
Ichiban w/ my bro & his gf!
The nxt time I met up w/ a friend was dinner w/ Joyce, when we had Sushi Express for dinner! Sushi Express has a special concept whr thr's no actual menu, you can only take whatever is on the conveyor belt! It is awesome if u love all types of sushi. Each plate for only $1.80 (now $1.50) I guess they're hving some promotion. Anyhow, the miso soup tasted really gd for me b/c they added in small salmon pieces. In ♥,♥ again.
And today! Planned w/ Suzhen during work to hv our hair done & so we met up to get it done today. Was deciding on straightening, curling and dyeing my hair, and decided to straighten b/c I'm quite sick of times when my hair is in a mess. Now that it's straight I hope it'll become more natural soon. Missing the good hair days before straightening.
We walked by Pepper Lunch in Hougang Mall & decided to have it even though there're no student meals on weekends! Had both beef & Salmon b/c Suzhen is a vegetarian, so... Heh heh Like zhuan dao right. But no la I was quite hesitant on taking b/c it seems like thr's too much if I have both!
So there. All the meet ups I had. I guess it isn't much, & I shld really meet up more often w/ people & actually be there on the day of the meet up. I really love all my friends. W/o them, there's no me & I really do cherish this 'fate' as my mom always put it, to be friends w/ you all!
Feeling so satisfied & happy today. Take good care, everyone! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
