The "TCM" Secret? My Mystery Birthday Dinner at Synthesis!

Birthdays always feel a little more special when there’s a surprise on the menu! This year, my bestie decided to kick off my celebration early by treating me to a pre-birthday dinner at Synthesis . It’s our very first time actually stepping through the doors. I saw this TCM hall inspired restaurant and bar 's unique atmosphere and fusion flavors on social media and I’m so ready to see if it lives up to the hype. Ready to join us for a night of good food and even better company? Let’s dive in!  Are we at TCM hall or ice cream store?  Array of Chinese herbs Can I have a concoction?  I need to cure my sweet tooth Tried their Seasonal flavour: Pu Er Tea with Longan Sorbet By the way, instead of ordering dessert at the table, we decided to grab some of their signature ice cream right outside the restaurant (spot in the photos above!). Taste test before getting one for yourself.  ​I’m not sure if it’s the unique ingredients or just the perfect end to a great meal, but why ...

Culinary | OREO No Bake Dessert by JELLO

Bought 2 boxes of the pre-mix before our hse-warming and only now I decided to do it. Picked up the courage because I was afraid that such simple no-bake recipe I also can't manage then I'm totally useless bum. But surprisingly, I can. Okay lah. Because I did no bake cheesecake before but still no confidence. Quite happy now.  



So I bought this box of JELLO Oreo No Bake Dessert at Cold Storage. Can't be more happy to buy all these baking stuff there. Because is no bake recipe thus that time before hse-warming I bought it as I don't have an oven and if I wanna bake, I have to use my Philips Airfryer.

Inside the box, you can find the Crust mix, Filling mix and Oreo cookies crumbs. And all you need is butter and milk. Just like any cheesecake recipe.

So my procrastination starts here. I couldn't figure out how much is 4 tbsps of butter and 1 1/3 cup of milk. Today I finally went to google how much in grams. This is definitely god send. I found 1 whole list of measurement from a blog. So thankful for that. 

So now I can tell you:

4 tbsp of butter = 56g
1 1/3 cup of milk = 330ml

Let me know if this is not accurate. Oops...



I used SCS Unsalted butter (227g). How I get 56g of butter is by dividing into 4 portions. Simple as that. Get it melted at high heat for 1 min on microwave. 


Ta-daaa.... Here's how it looks after mixing with melted butter. Why look more like caviar? And then I put it to refrigerate for 15 mins (adopting the method from Betty Crocker's No Bake Cheesecake) and proceed to do the filling.



I used HL Milk with the Filling mix. Follow the instructions closely and woohoo... I did a good job like how I manage for other cheesecakes. Feeling good by now.



After beating, I mix half a pack of cookie crumbs with the mixture. Taste sweet. And pour it into the base which I have put in fridge for 15 mins.


Top it up with the balance cookie crumbs and refrigerate for a day before having it. Suppose to freeze it but probably I will get Oreo ice cream cake instead so I decided to just chill it. Probably I will change my mind later. Lets see how.

1 day later...



The appearance doesn't look very nice but then finally, it is up! Time to attack the whole cake. Sweet. 

Hope you enjoy reading this post. Kthxbye.
