Kabe no Ana (Japanese Pasta at Nex)
We finally tried the Japanese pasta at Kabe no Ane, which means hole in the wall. The restaurant dates back to 1953 when it first opened in Japan. I must say I really fancied the texture of the noodles. Here’s … Continue reading
Matcha Latte (Tully’s at Orchard Central)
The latest drink I see on the menu these days is Matcha Latte. I must be high in antioxidants as it’s concentrated green tea powder. B loves it and I think it looks pretty although I tend to go for … Continue reading

Brunch on the Bridge (TWG at Marina Bay Sands)
TWG might be a tad snooty (still not as atas as PS Cafe), but it’s the place that most women who love high tea, would appreciate. The cutlery and table settings were all just so pretty. The natural light flooding … Continue reading

Inspired at the Art Science Museum (11 of 11)
One level was dedicated to ancient treasures from a shipwreck. Included were intricate gold cups from the Tang Dynasty. And did you know that Singapore was known as Temasek in the 9th Century?

I have very few photos of the van Gogh exhibit as photography was not allowed within the hall. It was an experience – music and projected images in a dimmed hall. It’s hard to describe, but I could have sat … Continue reading

Captures why Art is so critical in our lives. Absolutely loved the melting blue clock. There were portraits of the artist himself. I thought he was handsome as a young man. My cousin thought the moustache made him look like … Continue reading

If you’ve ever played Pet Society on Facebook (used to be addicted to it before I quit cold turkey), you’ll recognize the Dali couch in the form of red lips. It was one of the most expensive and exclusive items … Continue reading

As a child I have always loved the idea of angels. There are one of the most comforting symbols to me. Also I had no idea that Dali sculptures (not original ones) were found all over the world, in public … Continue reading

The Dali Exhibits were divided according to his work. Like this one – Mythology and Religion. The butterfly – to help man escape daily worries for lightness. I wish there was a way the butterflies on earth could help us … Continue reading

Beyond the symbols, the sculptures were just beautiful to look at. Woman of Time (1973) I am loving the idea that beauty can be independent of time. It was interesting how the faces of the sculptures were masked with what … Continue reading

I found the Dali sculptures both beautiful and thought provoking. I definitely have quite a lot of repressed feelings and I probably repressed them, just to survive. I think this is probably true of most people. An interpretation of A … Continue reading

Octapas at Clarke Quay
An interesting, but expensive tapas place at Clarke Quay (S$100 at least for a couple). Since I aim to be honest – service was slow, plates were only cleared after prompting, and the lighting was too dim for conversation. I … Continue reading
