RedRing Treasures Cutlet Noodles in Wisma Atria

-
Lately I've been craving for fried chicken. Deep-fried, crispy chicken with rice! It doesn't matter if it's the kind that comes in a bucket or the one that's served on a plate, de-boned and ready to eat. The worst thing about it is my cravings come at the middle of the night keeping me wide awake as I nurse my growling tummy. Gah!

Then, I suddenly I remembered that dinner that we had at Wisma Atria's Food Republic where Paul and I got to try RedRing Treasures. It was upon an invitation from Roy and his father David to try their specialty -- deep-fried chicken cutlet served with your choice of noodles or rice. If there's one thing that everyone should know about food courts, be prepared to stumble upon great and yummy things in there. Roy is based in the US as he's finishing his studies there, so we got to sit down and chat with Mr. David who told us the story of how RedRing Treasures came to be. Apparently, they started in Holland Drive where Mr David and his wife carefully perfected their chicken cutlet recipe as well as the sauces used for their noodles.

The secret lies in the careful and precise preparation of each dish. They actually have a system for everything so each cutlet is timed to ensure consistency, the recipe is kept top secret within the family members and they personally see through the operations of their stalls on a daily basis. Talk about dedication!

That evening, Paul and I tried the Chicken Cutlet Egg Noodles (S$5.90). Each set comes with a bowl of peppery soup which Paul liked very much. I'm a fan of egg noodles and I just love how the sauce perked up the flavour without over-drenching it. The chicken cutlet stayed crisp and really yummy! I was so happy with it and we both agreed that it was definitely reasonably priced. That's a huge portion of chicken cutlet for less than S$6, don't you think?

Moving on, we tried the Salted Egg Squid Cutlet with Rice (S$8.50). This is one that I was so excited about. After all, who doesn't love salted egg? We appreciated the fact that they served the salted egg sauce separately which allows diners to control their sauce portion depending on their taste preference. Once again, another delicious dish that we were so happy to try. Now that I'm having meatless Fridays, I think I'll pay RedRing Treasures a visit one of these days.

Lastly, we had the Onion Blossom (S$7.80 / S$8.90 / S$10.50), one thing that we've both been eyeing as we first scanned the menu. It's interesting to see this as part of the line-up given that it's relatively a modern take as opposed to the very classic, local dishes that they have. Well, this is something that will cater very well to the younger crowd as well as those dining in groups. The onion blossoms were thin strips of sweet onion that's deep-fried to perfection. I liked how it wasn't dripping in oil and save for the slight oil stains on the paper, it was pretty much greaseless. Served with their homemade creamy sauce, it really makes for a great side dish to your chosen main. I highly recommend this! 

Over-all, RedRing Treasures has managed to keep the price really low. All mains are priced below S$10, one thing that's hard to find in a mall-based food court. Not only that, the serving was quite generous too making it a great deal for your money. I'm so happy to be able to discovery another yummy find right at the heart of Orchard Road. This is definitely one place that I'll frequent in between weekend errands or shopping trips.

Franny Mommy Finds : Happy Noz Sticker Patch

As a parent, I have one thing that I dread the most and that's when any of my kids fall sick. From the moment we detect the faintest sniffle followed by sneezes and runny nose, we know one thing is for sure -- we will be having a couple of sleepless nights. For twins, it is very common that when one falls sick, expect the other one to follow suit in just a matter of days, sometimes within hours even.  A few years ago, my twins would catch a cold and we really would struggle because they'd become very fussy and cranky at night. They're sleepy and tired from the cold but with a clogged nose, they can't really have a restful night and this means, either one of us will have to sit up and carry them all throughout the night. It came to a point wherein both kids were sick and Paul and I eventually caught the bug too. It was just so hard to care for the kids while you're not in the best condition as well. This got me researching on remedies on how we can have a good night ...

Bag of Beans (Charito) in Tagaytay

I can't believe that we have been frequenting Tagaytay for more than a decade now and not once have I written about Bag of Beans ! I tried searching all over this blog and I found..nothing. To think that not a single trip to Tagaytay, back then, would ever be complete without stopping by Bag of Beans for lunch or merienda. I must have been to engrossed with their coffee and bread that I wasn't able to take photos of the place and their food thus no blog entry. They, after all, have one of the best brewed coffee in Tagaytay and the yummiest bread to go with it too. Bag of Beans has been an institution in Tagaytay. Just like us, other tourists and visitors would make sure to drop by in order to grab a bite or to take home some of their homemade goodies every time they find themselves in Tagaytay. Bag of Beans started with one branch along the Tagaytay-Nasugbu Main Road across Residence Inn Zoo and it wasn't even overlooking the Taal. While they may lack in having a scenic ...

IKEA Singapore Pyjamas Party

For those who have watched the movie 500 Days of Summer starring Zooey Deschanel and my ex-boyfriend Joseph Gordon-Levitt, you probably also loved this scene: Paul and I are regular shoppers of IKEA . It's highly possible that someday, we will be able to furnish our future home with IKEA furniture pieces and items as it has been our go-to place since our 1st day here in Singapore. We would joke that if only we can live in IKEA, we probably would go for it. Well, who would have thought that the opportunity would come for us to "spend the night" in IKEA? A week ago, Paul and I were chosen to be one of the lucky few to join the exclusive IKEA Pyjamas Party . It was a 4-hour event starting at 11PM and we were told to come in..what else?!...our PJs. We were too shy though so we just went in our comfy t-shirt and shorts. Well, some were really brave and came in their full PJs complete with fluffy bedroom slippers! This event was to launch the 2015 IKEA catalogue also...
