Was out shopping with mum and chanced upon the seasonal Honey Peach Ai-Yu Jelly Specials promotion for the month of March 2024 at Nine Fresh (九鲜). Decided on the spot to buy both the Honey Peach Ai-Yu A and B with added sweetened red beans (+S$0.70).

I know that mum wouldn’t like the chewy black pearls so I gave her the Honey Peach Ai-Yu A (草莓蒟蒻桃子爱玉). Hers came with the honey peach ai-yu, konjac jellies, strawberry pearl jellies and taro balls.

For my Honey Peach Ai-Yu B (珍珠椰果桃子爱玉), it has the same honey peach ai-yu jelly and taro balls but with nata de coco and black pearls. The sweet, pretty and ‘peach-ture’ perfect new seasonal desserts are such a thirst-quenching treat for our increasingly humid season.

I bought these drinks with coconut jelly cubes in them.

I've had one of these before, so I love them. 💕

one of my favorite food pairings is a bunch of club crackers with some coconut milk on the side. the coconut milk has some nata de coco mixed in too, and that's the best part about drinking it!!! seriously, you should try this someday.

McDonald's Singapore first introduced this locally inspired burger to us in 2017 and wowed me with the truly iconic dish in burger form. It came back briefly in the menu in 2019 and never appeared again until now. Of course I had to go buy the Nasi Lemak Burger Feast (S$11.50) which comes with Potato Wedges, Cocoa-Nut Pie and a small gassy drink. Upgraded the carbonated drink to a small ice green tea (+S$0.75).

For the 2023 version of the Nasi Lemak Burger, McDonald's tweaked the sambal sauce from sweet to savoury while also make changes to the chicken patty. Taking a bite, I did feel that the sauce was spicier than before, after all the sambal sauce is made from belachan, curry paste, chilli, shrimp, anchovies and other spices. The chicken patty is both crispy and juicy, boasting stronger flavours. Overall, the burger paired with fragrant sautéed onions, crisp cucumber slices and a fried egg was a sedap (Malay word for delicious) eat. While I enjoyed the soft and fluffy Potato Wedges over shoestring fries anytime, I did wish the wedges were dusted with some forms of spice mixture to elevate the flavours.

Now on to the Cocoa-nut Pie dessert. Breaking the pie into halves, all I see is the creamy coconut sauce with very little pieces of nata de coco inside, a far cry from the one I ate a few weeks ago. At least the pastry shell is still warm and crispy.

I finished Shibatarian yesterday and it was a great ride, a decently good manga but these panels will never leave my mind from how fucking funny it was at the moment when I was reading through

You'd think the prospect of having heating would be enough to convince myself to go out, but nope. Bribery by the way of one (1!) treat is what it takes
