One of the Cutest Posters Against Shoplifting at Don Don Donki
I know that this Japanese chain store is a nightmare for the environment in terms of packaging, but it sure is colourful and enticing. Eye Candy to brighten up the grocery shopping experience.

Another Day, Another Chicken Burger
Sad that this won’t be permanently on the menu. Doesn’t it look so enticing? Had this at a very tiny outlet at 18 Tai Seng, manned by just one girl. Don’t know how she manages, but she does a good … Continue reading

My Favourite Japanese Stores in Singapore #5 : Muji
My storage solutions are usually from Daiso or IKEA but it’s nice to have another option. Previously the stuff here was just too expensive so I’m glad they have come to their senses. Competition from Daiso must have nudged them … Continue reading

Muratama After a Long Time
I requested for the chicken balls instead of the pork. Not much taste but good with the chilli. The broth made you feel very full. B remarked that’s it’s probably full of collagen. That’s great because I’ve been hearing so … Continue reading

My Fave Japanese Stores in Singapore: #2. MOS Burger
Recently it seems to have revamped its offerings and the burgers seem to be fresher. I somehow don’t feel so bloated after eating here compared to say McDonald’s. Perhaps there’s less salt used? Their ice lemon tea is my favourite … Continue reading

The Goat Year & Hinamatsuri at Liang Court
I think my favourite place where I experience the Goat Year festivities is Liang Court. I just think they do things so well and I guess I am a Japanophile? Hinamatsuri is Doll’s Day or Girl’s Day and is celebrated each … Continue reading

Japanese New Year at Liang Court
