First time making sweet and sour and i am proud to say that it was a success. The family finished it in a jiffy! It lacks the garnishing and many ingredients but still it was rather delicious. Unfortunately i had to prepare this in a limited time so i did not do more prepping on

This is the third time i’ve attempted to boil soup. The first 2 attempt was somewhat not so successful. *don’t laugh -_-”. Today i’ve tried my hands on ABC soup. By the way it’s called ABC soup coz it contains all the vitamins mentioned. It’s actually the easiest soup to make. There’s no exact measurement
(NOTE: Viet Passion had since been closed down) We thought of having Vietnamese food for EatAllYouCanShung‘s birthday since it’s been so long since we had some.
