Goodbye Lancer, Hello WISH
It's time for another upgrade, this time purely for functional reason because soon we need to fit 2 child seats in the car. The Lancer was also getting a bit too small to accommodate visiting in-laws from both sides.
The handover day was 12 Sep 2009.
...the one who realized WISH is not that hard to manouvre after all

Fish Slice Soup @ Alexandra Village
Rating: ***1/2
Note: Only open on weekdays from 7.30am till lunch time
Price: $3/person
Actually, this super famous stall is not inside the AV Hawker Centre itself. It's actually in a coffeeshop around the neighbourhood. Which block number I don't exactly know. I just know how to walk there but did not take notice of the block number. I shall make an effort to note it time the next time I visit the place again ya. For now, allow me to just leave you some photographs. Perhaps you can remember the signboard and look for it at AV vicinity :) If you notice, the stall doesn't even have a name!
The popular fish soup and yam rice
The stall is also famous for its mixed pork (Zhu tza tang) soup.
Be warned that most their items would be sold out by 1 am. If you come for late lunch, you may be dissapointed. At lunch time, the coffeeshop is usually heated like a sauna but still that doesn't deter the fans from crowding the stall. Worst of all, you can catch them for dinner or weekends... So unless you drive or have super long lunch hour or work just next to AV, catching this fish soup may be quite a challenge.

Revisited the restaurant again on 17 Sep 09 - that's our 8th anniversary! Past the 7th year itch they say :)
The last time we went to this restaurant was almost 4 years ago. It has since moved to Mohamed Sultan Road.
Service remained top notch and the food quality did not drop a bit. If anything, it has improved! I am so happy I shall up the rating by another half star.
I was served a complimentary dessert that was so good I still crave for it till today. It was something with pineapple taste. Superb and perfect.
...the one who hope that the special dessert is available on the menu
