St Marc Cafe: Strawberry Milk Parfait
I see myself frequenting St Marc a lot. Well if it’s not too crowded. I love their parfaits. The Yuzu tea was way too sweet (it’s Yuzu jam with hot water added) but at least there is free chilled water … Continue reading

Christmas Owls at Liang Court
Liang Court always manages to delight me. Loving the Christmas owl decor. I’m quite biased as I tend to love everything Japanese. Think I’m not alone though. And of course, I always have to make a stop at my favourite … Continue reading

Christmas at Little Japan (Liang Court)
I always get excited when Christmas is around the corner. It’s shocking that we’re already into December. As I get older the idea of time flying actually scares me. I want it to slow down. Wrote about what I saw … Continue reading

New Cafe at Liang Court: Dulcet & Studio
Wanted to have cakes here the last time but the place was just too crowded, being new and all. This time it was better but the ordering system still seemed a tad messy. Instead of allowing us to be seated … Continue reading

Daiso, the 2 Dollar Store
Would be even more enticing if it was the dollar store but I guess you can’t buy much with a dollar these days. Everyone loves a good bargain.

5 Reasons Why I Prefer Genki Sushi for Japanese Food
Genki Sushi has become my favourite Japanese restaurant in Singapore. Here are 5 reasons why. The presentation might look a tad messy (this is no Jiro’s Sushi), but the taste of the egg and rice, was out of this world.

Saboten at Changi Airport T1: Unimpressed by Meal & Sloppy Service
Won’t be coming here again. Not the worst food experience of course, but considering the price, not impressed. Out of the three people on duty, one was ok and more polite than the others. I am always reluctant to talk … Continue reading

Calpis Sour at Liang Court
Didn’t like this so much. S$4.50 for one can. This has whiskey in it, so we just had to try it. Our conclusion: Prefer Calpis Soda – the fizzy version of this yoghurt based drink which is a translucent milky … Continue reading

Hokkaido Milk Cake at Liang Court

Takashimaya Food Basement
I find the Food Basement at Takashimaya so interesting. Can’t compare to what there is in Japan but it’s still pretty amazing. There is always something new to see and this time we stumbled upon a Hokkaido food fair with … Continue reading

L’etoile at 160 Owen Road: Lovely Setting, Disappointing Drinks
Service felt earnest at this pretty cafe said to be inspired by French style cafes in Japan. Disappointingly though, the food and drinks did not satisfy. Think my expectations have sky rocketed since trying out all the new idie cafes … Continue reading
Flor at 2 Duxton Hill

I Checked out the new Franc Franc Furniture Store at Vivo City
My first impression of Franc Franc. Wow those are the biggest chairs ever. Wonder what it would be like to sit in one. Probably pretty awesome and I would have that Alice in Wonderland feeling. After looking around I was … Continue reading

Itacho Sushi x Jika Udon at JCube
Had lunch at Itacho. It’s a bit confusing as it seems to be two brands in one? The restaurant at JCube seems to be the only branch that has this dual concept. It wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t great either. … Continue reading
