Rare and Beautiful

I am rare. No, not that I'm a rare beauty dripping in gorgeousness like Angelina Jolie or Eva Mendes. Rather I am a morning person, unlike most people I know, I don’t frown at 9 am lectures or look zombiefied in the morning. But I do draw the line at daily 6am wake up calls, especially when the execution is by confiscating ones blanket in a 23 degree air-con room, leaving the shivering victim with no choice but to wake up.

hello darkness

But my grumpiness is always short-lived, as the round of golf is always the precursor to an awsome breakfast. this particular one was exceptionally beautiful.

package of sin


it glistens

worth its weight in gold


Before - the pork man

Our group of 6 pork lovers arrived at 8.40am, and there was already a queue, as the pork man started selling at 8.30am. by the time we finished breakfast at 9.15am, all but a few pieces of char siew(barbecued pork) were left. Not bad work considering that he started with two whole pigs and managed to sell nearly all of it in 45 minutes. I don't know how true this is, but according to an uncle, the ultimate super best bit of a roast pork is its third rib. That's what we had, and it was pretty damn good. The meat was moist and the skin crunchy. The char siew was expertly marinated and was all a melt-in-your-mouth package of sweetness and juiciness.


After- the porkless man with a my-pork's-good-eh smile(even the bones were gone)


the pork man sets up shop in from of a coffee shop named Fusan, which is situated in Menglembu. Its pretty hard to get to as the shop is in the middle of a housing estate, I'm pretty sure i wouldn't be able to get there by myself again. If you need directions to get to his stall, or need a roast pork or two for a function, this is Mr Wong's mobile number 012-5802577.


seek and you shall find the divine roast pig under the blue and green umbrella
