Teochew Festival @ Ngee Ann City 2014

I am not Teochew but I am interested to visit the Teochew Festival at Ngee Ann City. Entrance fee SGD5.00, at least the place is air-conditioned.  There is an exhibition on how our ancestors travelled from China to Singapore, tradition and culture of the Teochew in Singapore.







The exhibition is only a small part of the festival, they have live stage performance in Teochew and it has drawn crowds to surround the stage and watch.
  

Live demo on Handcrafted items




Gold, Traditional Teochew pastries, preserved food, tea, embroideries  











The main highlight would be the food from China. Food are rather expensive, some of the items you can get it much cheaper at food court. You are paying for the stalls to come here, the rental and salary.

Tang Yuan SGD5 per bowl




Fried Kway Teow alike.

Dim Sum


Duck Rice SGD10.


Kuehs - 3 pieces SGD10


Oyster Omelette. SGD15. Look at the panel cover with oil until i cannot take a photo of the cooking process.



I only get to eat the oyster omelette. SGD15.00. It is quite similar to the Singapore style, except is cook with spring onion and more oil.

K COOK BBQ– Korean BBQ Buffet

What are the thing that we consider when arrange for a gathering dinner: Location and price. This Korean BBQ Buffet located at Level 7 of Orchard Central and price at around SGD26.90++ for weekend dinner. I guess it is quite affordable and the location is great. Plus point, outdoor seats come with a view.

They keep refilling the empty container. Service is quite good.


I like the BIG hot plate for cooking, can cook more items at one time.
