TungLok Seafood Ala Carte Lunch Buffet

That long August weekend for Hari Raya and National Day, was a feasting weekend for me. Oh my tian, the amount of good food that I ate.. Haha!

My family went to Soup Restaurant for dinner on Hari Raya but they only serve pre-arranged National Day menu :( So we didn't really take a lot of photos, we were kinda late too.

On National Day itself, which was that late morning after the Soup Restaurant feast, my family went to Tung Lok Seafood at Upper Jurong for their Ala-Carte Lunch Buffet.

Excited!

This is the deal, the final cost of each pax is less than $50 but the amount of food and the variety is really worth it. Each person gets to enjoy two pieces of huge sambal clams and a small pot of "Buddha Jumps Over Wall" soup - an expensive Chinese soup with expensive ingredients of abalone and herbs.

This is the soup:

And these huge sambal clams:

3. Mothers' Day celebration at home

My third Mother's day celebration was with my other paternal aunties and grandmother at home :)

Me with the Lee cousins! :)

There were too many cameras around and I think this is an acceptable candid shot.

We drove to Chua Chu Kang 253 to takeaway some dominos pizza and kfc! Dominos took around 15 minutes to prepare my pizza, I love their efficiency!

Earlier that day, I DIY-ed a small cake from The Icing Room but I didn't dare to bring out because one of my aunties already bought a cake and my cake is too small for everyone.

So, later that night, we had a cake-cutting ceremony again :)

Happy Mothers' Day!

2. Mothers' Day Dinner at ChoaChuKang ITE

This is my family's most convenient restaurant which is situated at Choa Chu Kang ITE. I guess it's only a 10 to 15 minutes walk from my house!

We had this dinner together with my family, one of my paternal aunty, cousin and grandmother. We ordered quite a spread and the restaurant was crazily busy. I like the location a lot, not exactly crowded and convenient for us.

1. Mothers'Day Lunch at Dempesy

This year, I had 3 days of Mothers'Day Celebrations and this is the first!

I had the first advanced celebration with my maternal grandmother at Dempesy where it is only a short drive from her place at Holland Road! Sheridin recommended this place - Chang Korean Charcoal BBQ Restaurant. 

The garden outside the restaurant is really unique :)

Discussing our order :)

Smile for the camera!

As usual, Korean cuisine comes with a lot of Banchan (small dishes).

Order two sets of meat (3pcs per set at $25)

There is a staff helping us BBQ the meat :)

Tasty and it is gone in a minute!

We ordered Bibimbap and Ginseng Chicken and the staff help to serve us in small bowls.

I would say the place is really comfortable and the servers are friendly and responsive. I don't really like the ginseng chicken soup because it tastes too bitter for me. The BBQ meat, which we wrap in lettuce, is very tasty and worth the price. They provide salad as well and the salad is so tasty I finished it :x
