Food Review : Cheesy McSpicy and Milo Dinosaur McFlurry

Unlike the Salted Egg Chicken Burger, I had yet to read any review about the "new" Cheesy McSpicy Burger on Facebook. 

I called it "new" because McSpicy Burger has always been one of the long standing favorite burgers. And previously, we can already request to add a cheese to our usual McSpicy Burger, hence it was never something very new. 

I am a McSpicy Burger Lover and I LOVE Cheese! Hence, I can shout out that this "new" burger creation is definitely my favorite so far and I am a big fan! 

BUT the taste will be even better if the cheese can be thicker and bigger! Then we definitely will have the "burst in your mouth" Orhmm feeling. 

I had to talk about where we went for this new recipe . Had wanted to bring the kids to the new Marine Cove area last Sunday for a nice lunch and outdoor playtime. However, a very heavy rain spoilt our plan. The crowd at the Mcdonald was surprisingly still okay and we waited less than 20 minutes to get  indoor seating. We did not have to wait very long to get our food too. The Mcdonald cleaner aunty was very friendly and encouraging. She told the kids to enjoy their lunch first and the rain would stop soon. 

The rain did not stop but got heavier. 

Nevertheless, I was really impressed with the customer service and friendliness of the Mcdonald servers. The indoor seating was cosy and layout was spacious. Jamie was amused by the cakes and sandwiches counter and posed for me to take pictures.

Our spirits were abit dampened but the Milo Dinosaur McFlurry made us smile! 

Take a closer look at the Milo Powder Sprinkled on top of the McFlurry.

I was really surprised that the Milo Dinosaur McFlurry did not taste too sweet. Yummy! Beside the original Oero McFlurry, this is definitely my next favorite! Hehe! I will definitely go for another round of this McFlurry soon at the Mcdonald near my office. Hehehe!

Stay Tune for more Food Reviews as I am on food hunts quite often these days! I will also try to back-date my previous food hunts experiences too, which I feel is worth sharing! 

Should there be any new recipes or restaurants/cafes, do let me know too so I can check them out! ^^

Movie Review - 六弄咖啡馆、半句再见

类似的青春，不一样的人生。

一样的题材，不一样的演述。

有点黑暗 (Dark)、沉重。

有点类似励志，又有点类似反面教材。

起跑点一开始就有差异的话，临时抱佛脚还是有效的。即使进不了同一所大学，可以在短时间抱佛脚抱到进大学，已经是个奇迹。

长距离的爱情真的不会有结果吗？小绿那么努力还是失败了。阿智那么搞笑地追李心怡那么多年，总算给他追到了。难道他没有小绿那么努力就追不到吗？可悲的是，原来靠努力是没法维持感情的。即使天天见面，观点上的差距却足以让你觉得在你身边的那个人，其实离你很遥远。

与你同在。

或许对单纯专一的男人来说，认定一个女人后就是永远的认定。即使不在那个女人身边，他还是希望那个女人觉得他活在她的生命里、与她精神同在。

可是这并不是她要的爱情。她希望当自己需要被关心时，自己喜欢的人可以在自己身边。她只是需要抱抱他，感受一下他的体温、他的心跳。即使他不说话也可以，因为她只是需要真实地感受他的存在。

男人有时太专注于problem solving，就会听不到自己的gut feeling。小绿一直专注地希望为她解决问题，而忽略了真正的问题。她的problem就是小绿不在自己的身边。她觉得实际地在一起才可以对抗未知数。但对小绿来说他一点都不怕未知数，因为未知的事情还没发生。这个是typical problem solver的观点。问题发生了才想怎么解决就可以了嘛！干嘛为了可能不会发生的事钻牛角尖！

爱人是一种能力，被爱是一种肯定。

她是个很自我、自私、以自己为中心的人。因为她没穷过，没失败过。她可以有远大的志愿，因为家里富裕。可是她没想过小绿的经济情况。她要的就是别人为她一直付出。她要觉得自己很重要，要小绿很努力地付出与肯定她的“价值”。可是她却没付出半点的努力，也没法站在小绿的角度来体恤他。

“你有看到我的努力吗？”

小绿妈妈过世，最需要她的时候，她只传了简讯来慰问。她是在用 “与你同在” 来打小绿多一个巴掌吗？她又为他努力过了吗？

愛情是盲目的，執著害死了他。

我觉得小绿太傻了、太执着了。他到了最后还是为她着想，还自私地要求阿智为他完成自己的遗愿。为什么他就是那么执着？没了她，还可以找别的女朋友啊。为什么不去补考、也忘了回家看妈妈。为什么不可以重新开始？他还有一个什么都可以为他做的兄弟啊！他还是很年轻的啊！他的未来还是个未知数啊！

我想我们每个人都有太执着的时候。可能不是为爱情，可能是为了工作，为了友情。我也有我过于执着的时候。我也曾经耗了10年的青春钻牛角尖。但年纪大了后，经历的事情多了，就看开多了。我学会了珍惜身边的人，珍惜我所拥有的得来不易。现在我必须学会的就是拥抱未知数，也必须相信自己可以solve all the possible problems。即使我没办法自己solve，我也要坚信我的老公会和我一起solve。

我们也有过类似的青春。

16年前，我和老公高中毕业就在一起。老实说那时的我会很担心老公当兵时，因为聚少离多我们感情会改变。但是老公很努力，我们也很幸运。他的army camp就在离国立大学(NUS) 不远，所以我们不需要当牛郎织女。但由于老公的duty时间不固定，所以我们很珍惜可以在一起的时间。后来老公上了南大(NTU)，为了争取休息与温习的时间而住进了学校宿舍。那时的我毕业了，也开始勤劳地工作。我们见面的时间少了，但是一有机会我就会溜进南大宿舍陪老公温书。

她说的“一起长大”很 shallow。我觉的一起长大不应该指一起上学、一起温书，做什么都要每天在一起。一起长大是很抽象的指思想上一起长大、一起改变。

我觉得即使天天在一起，如果思想上没有一起长大，两人之间还是会有解决不了的问题。

爱情没有对错，只是立场不同。

不是每天见面就可以解决两人之间的不同。这也要看两个人愿不愿意解决彼此的问题，又或者两人的问题有没有可能解决。立场上的不同不是解决不了，而是很难解决。如果彼此都很执着或不成熟的话，那么就会一直坚持自己的立场，也会一直无心地互相伤害。

还记得我和老公的爱情得来不易。也记得老公时常会提醒我，不论我们之间有什么问题，他都会和我一起去解决。他绝不会让我一个人去承担伤痛。

“我会在这里等你回来。”

阿智似乎早已知道结局，但是他却阻止不了悲剧的发生。他们难能可贵的友情败给了爱情。你们可知道我是多么地羡慕他们之间的友情吗？我很希望有一个像阿智一样可以为我两肋插刀的朋友。

我觉得小绿很自私。到了最后还是要阿智为自己付出，帮他完成她的梦想。

但是阿智的靠得住却让我很感动。我真的以为说故事的人是小绿。

面对残酷的现实

和《我的少女时代》不一样的是，《六弄咖啡馆》没有美丽的结局。因为，残酷的现实使得四个人的青春有了不同的结局。但是它却也有真实的伤感、无奈和遗憾。。。

不过到了最后，她总算明白也感受到了，小绿会一直与她同在。

珍惜自己拥有的得来不易。

把握仅有的时间，孝顺年老的父母。

放弃无心的互相伤害，努力爱护你珍惜的那个人。

因为你不知道哪天你拥有的一切可能会突然在人间蒸发。到时你就连半句再见也没机会说了。

Food Review: McDonalds Salted Egg Chicken Burger and Salt & PepperFrench Fries Challenge

Took awhile to write this review because I wanted to confirm the taste of the burger, despite the many negatives remarks on Facebook.

Being someone who only believes in what I see and hear, I wanted to try the burger from at least 2 different venues before I write the review. 

First Burger Tasting

Though there was more sauce in the second burger, the taste did not differ very much. :( 

I think I was being unrealistic to hope that the burger tastes like salted egg prawns or salted egg crabs! Haha! 

Second Burger Tasting

BUT the shaker fries were legendary!!! We always asked for extra servings of shaker fries whenever we go to Mcdonalds!!!

I even had shaker fries for teabreak at office once! :P The calories that comes with the shaker fries are totally worth it! 

My Stress-Killing Teabreak 

Don't look at my Sundae lah! Hahaha, since the shaker fries were going to fat-die-me anyway, some additional calories won't matter lah! Besides the chocolate will kill my stress! Haha! 

Oh yes, if you are a goreng pisang lover, you may like the angmoh goreng pisang aka Banana Pie! I tried the Salted Caramel Icecream Cone. Hmmm.. it tasted sweet.. Is it supposed to taste sweet? I was expecting it to taste salty :/

Yum! At least I like Banana Pie lah! ^^

I hope this food review did not come too late as I just saw this in the papers this week! Oh Gosh! 

What caught my eyes was not the Chessy McSpicy but the Milo Dinosaur McFlurry! I die die must give it a try really soon!!! 

As a cheese lover, I am not going to miss the Cheesy McSpicy too! So stay tune for my next food review! ^^
