An Evening to Remember: Our Family Reunion at Rasa Istimewa Waterfront

Welcome to Woodlands Waterfront Park For us, it was a change from our usual reunion dinner tradition of either a home-cooked meal or a mini buffet catered at home. This year, we decided to dine out for the first time at Rasa Istimewa Waterfront, a Halal restaurant serving a variety of Zi Char-style dishes. The experience was made even better by the stunning view of the Woodlands Causeway leading to Johor Bahru, with the upcoming RTS railway set to open by the end of 2026. Excited for the speedy ride and custom clearance for a JB day trip in 2027. Though we got stuck in traffic for a bit on our way from the West to the North, I didn’t mind too much. After all, everyone’s in a rush to cross the Causeway and be with their families for the Lunar New Year. That RTS that links us with our neighbour, Malaysia Hello neighbour The restaurant is located on the bridge, and while waiting for my brother and his wife to arrive, we took a stroll along the stretch.

Food Review | HONGUO (Revisit)

I'm back for HONGUO again after almost 2 years. A real long hiatus. Well... you just gotta try something else till it brings you back where you start.

Simple dinner. Just one side. Enough to fill 2 hungry souls up.

Garlic Cucumber
Naturally, cucumbers are refreshing fruits (technically) to have on hot weathers, esp if you slice and put them in fridge for hours or till it is chilled. Here is a simple dish and kind of easy to cook too. Garlic, soya sauce and sesame oil in mixture, then pour over it. Or maybe put the cucumbers into the sauce mixture for absorption of taste. I shall do it at home myself. Interesting find.

Lotus XO Seafood Fried Rice
Right from the start, when we talk about seafood fried rice, I will first turn to their seafood varieties like prawns and/or squids. Sometimes, crabsticks. Then the freshness of their seafood. I give it a pass for their seafood items here. Lastly, I will turn to their rice. Fragrance and you taste the every rice grains. Flavourful, and top with some spring onion. That is how Fried Rice should be.

Lotus Chicken Chop Fried Rice
The last time we came for dinner at Honguo, my husband had this chicken chop fried rice. I shall not comment further on their rice because is the same as above. Here, we talk about the chicken chop. At the right texture, it tastes a little juicy but fatty. A little suggestion here is to cut the chicken chop further half, smaller pieces for easy consumption. The batter can be a little less to get the taste of chicken much closer with every bite.
