Now I'm getting to understand why people say Marriage is Once in a Lifetime!

By -
Now.. I finally understand the statement.. the statement as to why people always comment that marriage is for once in a lifetime. Really, the amount of work involved in this is tremendous and the management of 2 families expectations is not easy.. . I really mean it. . WOW!.


This is the result when everyone with different opinons starts to give their views and as of all human beings, ALWAYS believes that they are always right. This is the same for everyone and now, Serina and I will be the sandwich in between, awaiting the diners to gobble us into their stomachs.. !!


How I wish we are back to our WWOOFING days when there were no such headaches. No Work Stress and disturbance, No family pressure, Live Life As we Love it. .


Just look at these 2


Tan Tans in the photo... don't they look good?

Speaking about WWOOFing. it is really an experience which everyone should try. .. Work, Eat and Live with locals overseas and experience a real cultural exchange.. that must be the coolest programme on earth.. However, be warned that it is not going to be an easy task....

Well, for those that are interested. Do visit http://www.wwoof.org/

And back to today... I got almost all I needed from Ikea today and moved the darn heavy chest of drawers back. . Had an injured wrist and am still on medication for my flu but time is running short.. so no choice. Had to do it. . There are still so many things to clear and confirm and the wedding is only 2 weeks away.. .

Not an easy task for the 2 TAN TANs to get together but we know that it will all be worth it when the 2 TAN TANs get together..

GANBATE!!!!!

Modified Mee Pok dry in Owase?

By -

In a country like Japan where there are basically only 3 types of noodles – Ramen, Udon and Soba and of cos some variations that arise from it. But there is definitely no mee pok, you mee and others. So, what can one do when certain craving hits? Create your own! Just this morning, Mr Tan Tan created Mushroom Bak Chor Mee, Mee Pok dry using some instant pasta from a half-priced tonkotsu italian ramen that we found in the supermarket! Yes, its half-price and the Tan Tans always buy stuff when it is price-down to save money.   In order to replicate the taste of Singapore’s famous mee pok noodle, Mr Tan Tan simmered japanese mushroom with oyster sauce, soy sauce and dry scallops for 2 days before this meal. A pity he cannot find the dry fragrant fish that is commonly used with the mushroom in Singapore. The fish cake that the Tan Tans bought caught them by surprise when they found gobo (japanese roots of some sort) within the fish cake. With a dash of the mushroom sauce, soy

Kyushu & Shikoku Travels – 熊本市 (Kumamoto) & 阿蘇山 (Mount Aso or Asosan)

Our second part of the journey covers Kumanoto which is famous for horse meat and well, lots of other things too. As our stay in Kumamoto was very short.. we reached there in the evening and departing for Aso-san the next morning at 1100hrs, the exploration around Kumamoto was fast direct. What is most important in the discovery of a new place is definitely FOOD and Kumamoto is famous for their Ramen. For those who may not know, Ajisen Ramen that is so popular in Singapore comes from this part of Japan. Ajisen Ramen as well as a “pub” for blood donors. You drink water, they draw your blood.   Our hunt for Kumamoto Ramen landed us in this restaurant that was one of the top 100 recommended store in Japan. Look for the sign (red in background) and the quality of the food will not go wrong.    alright i admit, the budge from my tummy was caused by the wonderful ramen we just had. Oh! Horse Katsu for sale. . . hmmm… how could I ever resist it? And it was enjoyable eating hors

Ueno Tenjin Matsuri!

By -

Iga's main festival is the Ueno Tenjin Matsuri held from October 23rd-25th and featuring a parade of locals dressed as oni (ogre or demons), mikoshi (portable shrines) and another procession of decorated, wheeled floats known as danjiri. The festival has a 500 year history. It was definitely an interesting experience watching the oni parading and frightening the wits out of babies, toddlers and young children, who responded by madly wailing their lungs out. Apparently it's good for children to cry on this occasion because the oni are scaring the evil spirits away from them. We also went on a treasure hunt of sorts and kind of won the top prize in a lucky draw - a box of really exotic grapes! The parade of the oni. An 'ogre' struggling to drink through a straw. The samurai (top) and the priest (bottom) warding away evil. Look at how horrified the kids were. The Danjiri (large wooden carts in the shape of a shrine/temple)! Mikoshi (Portable shrines).
