With Singapore’s 50th National Day coming up, everyone over here in Singapore is getting all excited about the upcoming SG50 National Day Parade, which has been practising hard over the last few weeks.
SG50 parties are popping up all over the place, and the Aged P decided to throw a small potluck party with some home cooked dishes given an SG50 twist!
A vegetable dish, A pasta dish and A SG50 Funpack
The Aged P made the vegetable dish with white radish, wongbok cabbage and carrots boiled in a clear chicken broth with dried scallops and shiitake mushrooms. You can see she layered the vegetables with the white radish slices on top, then added a crescent moon and five stars carved from carrot.
Our good ole Uncle J-the-chef made one of his chinese-italian fusion pastas with ’50’ spelled out in cherry tomatoes and quail eggs dyed red.
We also had a Red food (Foochow noodle soup made with red yeast) and White drinks (Soya bean juice), but I think that a traditional Teh Tarik (made according to the instructions on my SG50 ‘funpack’) would be fun for a party too!
We’re going to meet with the Aged Ps at their place on the 9th of August (actual SG50 day) and watch the National Day Parade and enjoy the fireworks on TV together in air-con comfort.
For people who are too far away to enjoy an SG50 party, you can still celebrate in your own way – you can check out the Owls Well SG50 Playlist or you can make just like A Becky Lee, who went to have a very special SG50 themed manicure!
So patriotic and fashionable!

Love the manicure most of all! Your post is perfect timing on food ideas – as we’re throwing our SG50 NDP viewing party tomorrow night.
yes I’m looking forward to our NDP party too!
I love parties!! I think it brings on the Kampung spirit too.. the more the merrier and I hope you have a Fabulous National Day!
That is so true!
Doing what Singaporeans do best – eating and the SG50 themed food is just so apt.
I love the nails and you guys really had such a fun time eating and chilling out.
Very nice manicure! Our family also had a small party on National Day, just simple hawker food and some home-cooked dishes.
I love the SG50 dishes, so creative. And those nails, amazing! I would love to have family gatherings on NDP, because a strong society starts with strong family units! 😀
Wow, we never had a SG50 theme party! We only gathered to feast at yummy places… Love those nails!

Love your nails! Think your teh tarik recipe is easy enough to try.
They’re my sister’s nails – she has an amazing nail artist over in Sydney.
