Hi Veron,

The food pictures in our blog are amazing!

I’m missing all the Singaporean / Asian food when here in Sweden.

Have a great week ahead!

Best wishes,
Cheryl View all comments by Cheryl Marie Cordeiro

Hi Veron,

The rolls are fresh, steamed to the right temperature and it doesn’t get sloggy or overdone like what you get at some stalls when they are too crowded.

The sauce is just right for my taste, not too sweet, salty or hot.

And most important of all, it serves as some sort of comfort food when things get hectic in the office.

Enjoy !! View all comments by X Wings

r.p: The size of the rolls is actually pretty regular, the kind you get at most kopitiam. My pictures must have made them appear bigger! lol!

dead_cockroach: Yep, you are absolutely right!

TeReNcE: I also agree that the two wouldn’t go well together. I prefer eating chee cheong fun on its own with the sauce and chili gravy. Yum!

X Wings: Is there anything extra special about that stall? I would love to know!

niko: That was the first thought that came to mind when I saw the prices. $3 for the prawn chee cheong fun is a bit much.

oOFooi: Ooh yeah. It’s a real mouthful.

jacki: Duplicate? Do you mean you’re gonna make it at home? View all comments by Veron

Although it’s nice but i think it’s pretty expensive.
for $2.50 i only have 2 slices of chee cheong fun.
for $2.50, 3 or 4 slices will be nice. View all comments by niko

woah! this is the biggest chee cheong fun i ever seen. I just ate prawn chee cheong fun at Yum Cha Restaurant, Chinatown. Not that bad but the portion is not as big as the one in Tiong Bahru.

And the price only $2.50 ! Must give it a try one day. View all comments by r.p

py: You’re right. Having multiple blogs would certainly multiply the time and effort required. A bigger concern of mine is that my food blog would be the one getting all the traffic, while the rest get neglected.

someone suggested that I divide sparklette.net into a few different sections instead. I like the idea because it would mean having to maintain just one blog, with each section having a different focus. Kind of what I am doing already, just need some tweaks here and there.

vinsion: Oh I heard about those fruity chee cheong fun! Nope I haven’t tried them out before. It sounds intriguing and weird at the same time. I hope they don’t use the same dark sauce and chili with the fruits because that would be waaay too weird for my liking. It’s worth checking out! And when I do I would post a review. Thanks vinsion!

I was there many months ago to eat the chee cheong fun porridge. Quite an interesting dish.

About having separate blogs…I suppose it depends on your objectives for doing so. You may wish to bear in mind that managing a few different blogs can take a bit more effort than having one single blog. View all comments by py
