The next time I need to find something to eat in Chinatown area after 9pm, isn’t too expensive (prices are all very reasonable, and nett! No GST!), has a good selection of food, cheap beers, and enough seats for a huge group - I’m gonna head to 49 Seats!

I was invited by Sera from 49 Seats to a complimentary food tasting session, and it was just ( Read more... )

Last weekend, an impromptu trip to Ghim Moh Market for makan with my parents… (with my parents, it almost always is a last minute decision on where to eat or what to eat. my irritated husband just has to live with it haha.)

It was actually my second visit in a week. I’m amazed. After Star Vista, this place is a gem to me! I think I’ve got more ( Read more... )

Some of us LJ girls finally met up for our belated Christmas dinner (had to be shifted here n there due to conflicting schedules) - and I’m glad we met up at this great place where we got chatter away with no one else overhearing our conversation and have decent food with free parking and no need to worry about lack of parking spaces. Okay, too ( Read more... )

Menya Musashi

Actually I’ve never been interested in Menya Musashi before except during it’s opening - when I learnt that the noodles were thick and after a bad review from a galpal that the soup was full of oil, I almost didn’t try it out until my adventurous (and stubborn) husband wanted to give it a go.

The chain of ramen restaurants were named ( Read more... )

TheTiramisuHero is an online “bakery” started by Peggy (sixpegs) and previously, you could only order the food online - but they’ve progressed on to selling their wares at a physical space!

Dearest Peggy invited some of us (Yina, Jayne and I) over to the opening of her little space as well as the shop opening where Sir Antonio’s little corner is ( Read more... )

I’m kindda late when it comes to Red Velvet.

But ever since I got a taste of it… it’s been nothing but red velvet this and red velvet that. I’m in love… deep.
So when Yina told me that there’s this place which serves fabulous red velvet cake, how could I not try it?!

Buona Vista has a new church + mall - Star Vista!

The Church is named “The Star”, and the eco-friendly mall (open air concept mall by CapitaLand Mall - only the shops are airconditioned which saves a lot on the airconditioning bills!) is referred to as Star Vista. This place is less of a shopping haven and more of a foodie’s place - it’s packed ( Read more... )

My black roots were growing out (did you know that exercise makes your hair + nails grow out faster?) + the purple has faded (really quickly cos it’s the color nearest to my scalp), so I popped by Salon Vim over at Somerset 313 along with Yina for a quick touch up!

Some people like asking “how long does the purple last?” but to be more accurate, ( Read more... )

Had dinner at TCC a few days ago with another September baby, who was entitled to 50% off at TCC as well - this… is my fourth time at TCC within a month already!

Along with some old favorites we’ve ordered, there were some new items… they’ve revamped their menu yet again.
I welcome the menu refreshing every few months, but I really miss the ( Read more... )
