Contential - Italian Sun Dried Tomato and Basil Flavoured Rice

I had tried the Mushroom Risotto before and I did not cook it very well. This time round, I have bought the sundried tomato and basil rice to give it a try. I have added more water than specified and cook it in the microwave for a shorter period (9minsutes) because it is a 1100W microwave. I had gave the dish a quick stirred during the 5th minute and 7th minute. The rice came out nice and moist, not under nor over cook.

However, the taste is terrible. It is definately not as good as the mushroom risotto flavour. I didn't finish the meal because it taste too bland.

MYO- Make Your Own

I have decided to give MYO (at Irwin Chamber) a try today since I was told by serveral people it was fantastic. Personally I find it rather expensive for the food it sell.

I had picked a regular size pumkin soup($4.50) and a pizza with tomato sauce based, salami, mushrooms and cheese(regular size $7.90). You have to wait about 7-8 minutes to cook the pizza and while waiting, I was observing what everyone else had ordered, most people go for the rolls or breads with they have quite decent size fillings.

Overall, i think the pizza is great, mainly because I select what I want to eat. The pumkin soup taste rather like can soup or powdered soup. I will go there again because I am given the wide choice of variety but definately not for the prices. You can go to a deli and get the same for a cheaper rate for sure.
