Noodles from Crystal Jade
Yesterday was mum's birthday. She had been sick for almost four days. Her blood pressure was high. But after drinking Methi seeds drink, she was better. I planned to buy durian cake for her but on Thursday night, my brother wanted me to buy longevity noodle for mum. He said durian cake is too heaty.
So I went Causeway Point at 11am. When I reached 5th floor, the shop was all dark and no one was around. The sign was shown: Closed. They will only open at 1130am. So I went to walk around first. At 1130am, I looked at the menu and I asked the staff, "Do you sell longevity noodle?" They showed me the noodle page. They don't sell noodles that are cooked for like 3-4 people. They only sell noodles that are consumed by 1 person. So in the end, I bought 2 packet of different noodle.
In the photograph above, on the left is Ee Fu Mushroom Noodle and on the right is Fried Mee Sua with XO sauce. The Ee Fu Noodle cost $16.80 and the Fried Mee Sua cost $20.80. Mum thought one packet of noodle cost around $8. The portion was very little, but mum ate little only, and 2 packet of noodle was enough for the 3 of us.
I wanted to have 2 red eggs for mum. I asked the Crystal Jade staff if they can sell me 2 red eggs. They said red eggs are only available for dine in. They don't have red eggs for take away. So in the end, no red eggs for mum.
My sister and I did not sing Happy Birthday song for mum, but we wished her Happy Birthday, and said good and auspicious words to her. After eating the food, we spent some time together. I taught her how to play Candy Crush. She likes the game very much.
