Ch8 Fresh Farmers 小农夫

Glorious farm and vast padi fields, did we mention the air seems fresher here? There are ponds for fish and prawns too. The families involved in Ch8’s 13-episodes Fresh Farmers(小农夫) were invited back for a get-together and preview.

Boon Kang and Joey “大家好” with the audience, the kids from each episode were tasked to introduce their own “adventure”. We did a brief introduction of Kahang Eco farm (Koref) in another blog post.

The kids involved in Fresh Farmers. Most of us have never been to a farm before, much less toiled in one! So imagine the laughter and surprises when we got our hands dirty. The earthworms, the kids’ innocence and not all are keen to get their hands dirty (Some got to clean horse poo too!). Audience were laughing at ourselves during the preview.

Such fond memories!

The crew, especially Peggy and Keat were a great help. Besides their own busy schedule and load, they still have to look after our needs. 谢谢!

Appreciate the hardworking background crew too. Soundman, videoman always take the lead and wade deep into muddy zones. Their work ethics are highly professional and commendable.

Catch us toiling and making fun in the padi field! It is hard work to slog under the sun.
Through Fresh Farmers, we hope the kids will better appreciate where their rice and crops come from.
Perhaps more will treasure their meals, and not waste food.

District 10 brunch

[ Media Invite ]

We pop by District 10 (UE Square) last weekend for a hearty brunch.
We were told District 10 brunch has a new breakfast menu.

Farmer’s style Breakfast (rated 3.5/5) was good, because there was not much left after my oldest boy went through it. Boon Wee loves the bacon, sausage and mushrooms 🙂

Fortunately, we had the lovely Belgian Waffle (3.75/5). Warm and crunchy with a generous toppings of fruits, the waffle is good enough to munch on its own.

Wholemeal tortilla wrap (3/5), Mexican style chicken breast, roasted capsicum and scrambled eggs.

Yummy District 10 Brunch Beef Burger (4/5). Charcoal-grilled black angus patties and sweet savory bacon. This was my burger but kids all wanted a share 🙁

What we like about District 10 is their special Kids menu.

Breaded Chicken Fillet (rated 3.5/5), kids love it and we had to order a second set.

With so many food options, and a bouncing castle (weekends only), no wonder kids are in a happy mood.

For the younger tots, a special playpen vibrantly outfitted with ride-on cars, colouring books
and pencils will keep them occupied.
