Canto Kitchen Restaurant

HELLO!

I am here to blog about food again. There's always nice food on my blog and here is another post with delicious one! Be ready to drool all over it  ≧◔◡◔≦ .
I was invited with other bloggers to a food tasting session at Canto Kitchen ( 廣東飲食中餐厅) which is located at People's Park Complex right next to Chinatown MRT!

 I was so excited because I simply love eating. It's like my second best talent!  (─‿‿─) 


See how excited everyone was, taking lot of pictures, gathering outside the restaurant waiting to go in! 
 ≧'◡'≦ 


The first thing I thought when I went in was... Wow! There's a private dining room specially for us?
 I thought we are going to be sitting together with the rest of the other customers. 
We were welcomed warmly by Mr Sherbert Lim (Administrator of Canto Kitchen) into the auspicious room... why auspicious? because it's super red.  (¬‿¬) Heh.


Before we get to see the food,
Mr. Sherbert read a really cute welcome message and gave us all a brief introduction about Canto Kitchen.


Very quickly the first dish was served on the dining table! The best part is that drinks are served immediately before anything. I was damn thirsty already!

Fast and efficient services. Good services is basic. (◡‿◡✿) 
I shall not talk further and show you the delicious food that we had.

Burppp! ≧◡≦ All of them were so good! 
Especially the Fried Prawns with Orange Sauce, Steamed Cod Fish with Chef' Sauce, Chinese Herbal Roasted Duck & Braised Shark's Fins with Fish Maw.

I can really see chucky cubes and slices of shark's fins inside the Braised Shark's Fins with Fish Maw dish . You know some Shark's Fins soup I came across looks like a Egg drop soup where you see nothing but egg white floating around (ᵕ.ᵕ) . They call it 蛋花湯 in Chinese. (◡‿◡✿) . Ha! so I was enjoying chewing away with all the nice chucky shark's fins, wanted more but all got eaten up by other bloggers. ٩(×̯×)۶ 

I was really worried when the Steamed Cod Fish dish was served because I saw CHILLY! The first thing I said was " Huuhhhh SPICYYY? :(" But to my huge relieved, it's not as spicy as in spicy. The chilli sauce apparently taste of spicy and sweet combination, and it just tastes awesome! The fish meat also don't know why so nice to eat lah, maybe canto kitchen has some magic dust sprinkle on top of every dish. HAHAHA. ok lame. (─‿‿─) 

Some of Canto Kitchen dishes that I had also have a taste of home. Home as in, warmth. You feel comfortable and not too overwhelming like some top chef dish from other restaurant that may appear too overwhelming.

Not only the staff and people are friendly and approachable, the price are very very friendly and worth it too. It's definitely a good place where family and friends can gather for meals. And to top it off, Canto Kitchen have set meals for 2 persons, 4 persons, 6 persons, 8 persons & 10 persons. 
(✿◠‿◠) 

So what dishes are included in the set meals?

(っ◕‿◕)っ ♥

With the taste from all these dishes I will definitely recommend you guys to go try it out! 
Nothing beats for a good delicious meal! Whether is it for a special occasion or casual dine out with your loves one, it's definitely worth it.
I am glad that I am given the opportunity to dine with all the other bloggers at Canto Kitchen. It was a  great enjoyment having fun with everyone! (✿◠‿◠) (◠‿◠) 


Last but not least! Great deals & Promotions are not to be miss out!  (>‿◠)✌ 
Canto Kitchen is having a promotion with Standard Chartered Bank whereby it comes out a “15 dollars deal” campaign starting from 1st September to 30th November 2012! So if you have Standard Chartered Bank Card start using it!

The Photoshoot ˘⌣˘

(Cropped from original photo)

Hello   안녕하세요 !

I have always wanted to update my pictures since like last year. I wanted normal, simple, clean & clear looking pictures good enough for my CV/Resume, for Facebook or even for presentation.

What I mean normal is as above.

You know some pictures from photoshoot are so super abnormal....
.
.
.
I have been looking around for photographer who can take the shot. I have tried a few, and it was bad.
You know the kind of feeling when you brought heavy bags of clothes and work hard with the poses and smile. When the final product comes out, it suck and you feel disappointed. :(

Bad photos are pictures that you don't even want to show it to your friends or put up on websites. I am sure some of you might have experience that. 

AND I AM SO RELIEVED!
Thanks HP (Hong Peng a.k.a Hpility) for introducing me, a photographer, Luis (Tay Kaizhi) from Hotsource Production (@ Kallang Leisure Park #02-25 ). 

I haven't been doing photoshoots for a very long time. Maybe close to more than a year?
So I am a little bit rusty here and there around my bones and joint.

I am so glad that Luis can direct! 
Most of the photographer I worked with, don't usually tell you how to pose and angle, they assumed you should know. I guess most people who have never really done professional modelling before wouldn't much know how to.

ANGLES are really IMPORTANT you know!
The worse part is when your photographer doesn't tell you you looks like shit in the photo.

I like it that I get to look at my photos before moving on to the next one, & I like it when I have some say in the photos instead of shooting blindly.


WELL! 
I think with me talking so much about him, you probably want to know more. 
He started out in 2008 as a freelance photographer, and had been exposed to wide range of photography. He particularly likes taking portrait as well as photos for wedding actual day.

So if you want great pictures like me. You can actually look for him, he's good.

Now I have nice updated portfolio pictures! The whole shoot was an enjoyment! 
#Fun #Awesome 


THANK YOU LUIS!
