Parklane Zha Yun Tun

Parklane Zha Yun Tun is a famous and popular wonton noodle shop in Singapore. You can check out our previous wonton noodle review here (Best Wonton Noodle in JB)

 Parklane Zha Yun Tun is a Chinese pronunciation of the word deep fried wonton. Parklane Zha Yun Tun is inside Sunshine Plaza shopping center, as you step in it feels like a deserted place.

 Once you walk further in you can see the crowd at Parklane Zha Yun Tun lighting up the place.

 TV stations have been here, newspapers, magazines have all  been here to showcase Parklane Zha Yun Tun.

Hugo Wolf sees some familiar local artist at Parklane Zha Yun Tun. Hugo Wolf is also considered a well known celebrity isn't he? ^^

Our Zha Yun Yun noodles aren't here yet, so Hugo is playing around.

Our parklane zha yun tun is here!

The first thing to check out is definitely the deep fried wonton, which in mandarin called zha yun tun. Parklane's zha yun tun is very crispy but the minced meat filling is too stingy.

Next thing we check out is the wonton noodles! We liked that Parklane zha yun tun noodle's texture is very springy, not much taste going on in the noodles other than dark soy sauce.

The char siew (roasted pork) at Parklane zha yun tun is a surprise! It is soft and tender unlike many other wonton noodle store that gives thin slices of dry and hard char siew.

Parklane zha yun yun also came with..non fried yun tun

As usual, we always check out the green pickled chilli at wonton noodle store. We love the green chilli at Parklane zha yun tun here, it is crunchy and not too sourish.

We weren't impressed with Parklane Zha Yun Tun at our first try, but we went there again the second time and felt it tasted much better than the first time. When the eatery is too hyped, its normal that we have higher expectations. It is $3.50 for a bowl of Parklane zha yun tun with soup. We recommend ordering the $4 noodles!

NICI Elephant Plush

Say hi to NICI Elephant! The newest plush to join our crazy NICI-Mania flock. NICI Elephant plush is one of the most intricate animal here, let us show you why..

NICI Elephant has a very detailed and life-like face.

NICI Elephant has a pair of male elephant tusk.

NICI Elephant even has a mouth!

NICI Elephant has big flappy ears!

 NICI Elephant has hair tipped tail just like the real elephant.

And even nails! The attention to detail on the NICI Elephant is amazing!

NICI Elephant belongs to the wild friends series called Chumba and Bubaka. In case you're wondering, Bubaka the monkey has yet to join our flock.

We spot a few cute stuff like the NICI Elephant "piggy bank" and the one on the far right that looks like a paper weight..anyone knows what's that?

See you next time!

Jolly Lucy is very happy with Jolly Lucy mug!

50cm NICI Elephant from the NICI shop joins our flock too! The elephant is so adorable, we will feature him in our next entries.

Last but not least, we finally got 50cm NICI Raccoon to join our family! Guess whats in this Parkson bag?

NICI Minily Jolly Mah Sheep pops his bubbly big head from the bag and NICI raccoon quickly made friends with him!

We are very happy to have found this very cute NICI Minily Jolly Mah Sheep from Parkson. Could not resist his cute innocent eyes staring at us.

That's all our hoot from the Malaysia NICI shop and Grand Parkson departmental store. Now the big question..do we still have enough space to keep them at home? Hmm...
