Soft cheese journey

Don't like hard cheese? Try this soft cheese!

My journey in searching soft and creamy cheese.

Camembert

My favourite is Camembert but is hard to find a good one in Singapore. 

How to eat: I  like it to be baked slightly in the oven and dip it with baguette. 

Where to find: Cold Storage, NTUC finest, The Market Place

Burrata cheese

I first had burrata cheese during my hubby birthday celebration where we are invited to an Italian restaurant. I love it, it is so refreshing. After that I try it prepare it at home but it was so difficult to find this cheese. I went to all high end supermarket to find and finally I found it at Jason supermarket. I was Super excited!

 How to eat: This cheese has to be eat cold. It is usually eat with tomatoes and dressing it with balsamic vinegar and olive oil.

Where to find: Jason at IonOrchard

Mozzarella cheese

Mozzarella is Italian cheese which is commonly found in supermarket. It is not as creamy as burrata cheese but I think it taste better. Unless you can find a good grade burrata cheese in Singapore else those found in high end supermarket is still not very nice. So I go for Mozzarella cheese if I have graving for burrata.

How to eat: This cheese has to be eat cold. It is usually eat with tomatoes and dressing it with balsamic vinegar and olive oil.

Where to buy: any supermarket 

Brie cheese

I was looking high and low in the supermarket for Hokkaido butter when I saw this gem. I never try before but just try my luck and hope is what I like "soft".

Yippee! The moment I have the first bite and I know I am going to keep replenish this. My hubby love it too. It is soft and creamy and yet not too heavy.

How to eat: Eat with baguettes or fruits or nuts etc. Quite flexible

Where to buy: Isetan Orchard 

Fuchiko banana series

I took a series of Fuchiko フチ子 with the banana bought from the market. 

This banana are abit mini size leh. I told my hubby but he don't believe so I decided to compare with the size of Fuchiko. When I was comparing, "terng terng", their color so matching and here I started the Fuchiko series of phototaking with some storyline.

This series is called banana not so good!

1) this mini size banana really not very nice to eat.

2) banana comes in Ying and Yang!

Recently when I visit TMC, the doctor said I cannot eat regular size banana as they were too cold for my body. I can only eat banana of the smaller size breed. So funny, now then I know banana have "Ying" and "Yang" too.

Fuchiko > Hario coffee maker V60 series

Last winter I bought a Starbucks coffee tripper from Tokyo and the fun of making coffee from this is still here so last Christmas I got a Hario kettle to make it more perfect.. 

Yesterday I was at Tokyohand and I saw Hario kit on sales... I was Super excited as it was about 40-60% off the usual price.. I paid for $26.90 n I think is worth it.. Now I have a full set of Hario coffee maker.

If you ask me what is so good about making coffee with a Hario dripper? For me is the process and what I am drinking.. You need time to boil the water and pour the water little by little over the coffee powder, and all this take time and patient.. So unless you have time n enjoy such process, the set will end up in the storeroom after a few usage..

Live life with passion!

Fuchiko > Story of Table 41

Since the opening of Bukit Panjang hawker centre, my hubby and I will go there for breakfast during weekend.. So what is so special about table 41... Hmmmmm.. This table make me feel good about people.. We happen to be sitting at the same table everytime we visit the place.. Every time we get to make small chat with those sitting next to us.. We chat and review on the food that we ordered.. We comment on those Long Q.. We ask people to chop our seats while we order our food.. We wave at people who are looking for seats and offer the empty seats.. We will chat and say goodbye when leaving.. Is has been a Long Long time since we experience this kind of warm environment and people..  

So the story of Table 41 will continue this way.. We will try to sit there again next time to meet new people and hear new story...
