Mr Funshine and Mr Benzu were leaving town for a year end trip last year, so I treated them a meal before they get too busy prepping for their holiday. We were loitering around Bishan Juction 8 and craving for Chinese cuisine, thus we happily settled with Crystal Jade!
The entrance
The serviette, I just like the color+ finish of the wrapper
Our order slips, the dish will be strike off once it's served
One of the all-time dish I'll always order, 3-Eggs Spinach. They have normal egg, Salted egg and Century egg cooked with "oh-so-tender" spinach in light but flavorful broth
Deep Fried Prawn Wanton with Salad dip
This is the kind of wanton wrap I love, it's super light & crispy
I munched on the succulent prawn, yum yum... Did you know, I super love prawns?
Tasty Deep Fried Prawns in Salt Egg Batter, see... I love prawns
Aww... how I wish you were there too
The restaurant is renown for their Meat Platter (normally run out of it if you drop in too late). In the above picture (from left to right) is Poached Chicken (油鸡), Roast Duck and Roast Pork.
The dip is a mix of finely diced spring onion, ginger in oil
Roasted pork which I ate with chili
Roast Duck which & ate with the dip provided, so well-marinated and tender
Fried Rice served in a stone bowl
I can taste Chinese fermented black beans (黑豆豆豉) in this rice dish, I did not know they go together so well. Simply delicious!
After the meal, as per our routine, we decided to chill over a drink before heading home. There's a nice little Olio Dome nestled in the nearby community centre where we do visit once in awhile. At that point of time, the place was "all dressed up" for Christmas. In my personal point of view, this quite a romantic place... it's make me feel as if I'm no longer in Singapore. Pity that the photos I took does not show how cosy the place is.

Something happened that day and I pondered, and this is what I derived at:
Don't fight over trivial matters, but I understand that transparency's between a couple is a double bladed sword. It can either make a relationship stronger or completely destroy one. However, I do envy people who can make the best out of their love for each other through all difficulties, I just never came across one who is strong enough to treasure me this way.
