The recent FHA this year; FHA 2012 is the largest ever held in Singapore with 2,800 exhibitors from 71 countries taking up Hall 1 all the way to Hall 9 in Singapore Expo! That is over 92,000 square metre of space! It was held from 17 to 20 April 2012 at Singapore Expo. The show spanned across the various sectors such as Food, Hotel, Bakery & Pastry, Hospitality and Tea & Coffee.

How can any foodie miss this experience! I shall let the pictures do the 'talking'!

Automated Ice Cream Machine

Customers just need to press the black button and the machine will automatically move the cone upwards, let the ice cream dispense on it. When it is done, the machine will move the cone downwards. Can start putting a coin or note slot so that when $1 or $2 is slotted in your can get your ice cream! Imagine Ice Cream vending machine.

Looks like a fish market? Well, these are real! Seafood, snowcrabs, clams, fish, lobsters, scallops! 

The pictures above are just the tip of the ice berg. The show is so big that it is hard to cover everything. There were bakery (bread, cakes, biscuits), beef, pork, parma ham, hot dog bun, korean kimbap, green tea, strawberries, pizza, coffee machines, machines of all kinds, wine, ice cream, fish, salmon, vegetarian, fruit juice..the list is endless! 

The show attracted such a huge crowd that there was a traffic jam into expo. Moreover, I had to queue 1 hour just to get my pass even though I had pre-registered. Still it was well worth the wait!

The next Food Hotel Asia 2014 will be held on 8 to 11 April 2014! Can't wait, hope I can visit it then!

Tiong Shian Porridge 長城粥品 (New Bridge Road) 2nd Post

Another visit to Tiong Shian Porridge located near Chinatown MRT station along New Bridge Road.

Tiong Shian Porridge needs no introduction among foodies. Readers of FoodieFC would have known that I am a great fan of this place. Despite living in the North, I still find myself (with her) making a special trip down here. (I am a foodie!!) For the benefit of doubt, Tiong Shian Porridge specialises in serving porridge and claypot frog leg! Yet again, during this visit, the place is packed!

The lady who determines if you get 1 piece more or less meat.

Raw Fish in the freezer

Look at the number of plates of Raw Fish in the freezer!

Here's how to order: Find a empty table (or share a table). Make your order at the cashier and inform them of your table number. Lastly, pay and wait for it to be delivered to you. We waited for around 20 minutes this time before getting our food. Lucky us! During our last visit, we waited for half-an-hour.

Raw Fish (small) $3.90

Tiong Shian Porridge is also know for its Raw Fish. You can observe this for yourself when you are there. Almost every one orders this! The Raw Fish consist of slices of raw fish, chilli, ginger, lettuce, spring onions and shallots. All you need to do is to squeeze the lime juice and mix the ingredients up! The fish is fresh with no fishy taste. This is a must order! For just $3.90 you get so many pieces of raw fish and it taste so yummy.

Braised Bean Curd $2.60

We observed that most people ordered the Braised Bean Curd (Lou Bean Curd). Hence, we decided to order one too. The Braised Bean Curd was unique. It was very soft, and silky smooth on the inside. The sauce on top complement the dish well especially when paired with plain porridge. Add in the chilli at the side to give it a spice it up.

Shredded Chicken Porridge $3.20

The Shredded Chicken Porridge was on the salty end. However, I must mention that the shredded chicken was well marinated and cooked. Very flavourful and soft chicken meat!

Dried Chilli Frog Leg $8.00

Ordered Dried Chilli Frog Leg again. Right amount of sweetness and spiciness. The frog (meat) was tender and flavourful having adsorbed the sauce. Delicious! 

Plain Porridge $0.60

As usual, I ordered a bowl of Plain Porridge for myself. The reason for ordering this is to add the sauce from Dried Chilli Frog Leg and the frog leg into this! It will transform into the best plain porridge ever.

Again, Tiong Shian Porridge is one of my favourite food destination especially for porridge or claypot frog leg.  The down side is that you have to be prepared to sweat it out eating this as this place is not air-conditioned. (this is something worth sweating for). Should you have difficulty finding seats, there's level 2!
