Cafe Melba

Posted on April 15, 2013 by bookjunkie

Had a lovely meal at Cafe Melba and I’ll be happy to return. It’s an Australian inspired cafe located in the East at Goodman Arts Centre and it’s a bit difficult to find so you’ll need your GPS or smartphone map. … Continue reading →

My First Time at the SEA Aquarium (Sentosa)

Posted on April 2, 2013 by bookjunkie

There are some unusual sea creatures I saw here that I’ve never seen before and for that I guess it was worth the huge ticket price of S$29. The tanks here are pretty massive and more impressive than the previous … Continue reading →

My First Time at the Maritime Experiential Museum

Posted on April 2, 2013 by bookjunkie

I don’t know if it’s truly worth the ticket price, but it is worth while to see it at least once. The ticket covers both the Maritime Experiential Museum as well as the SEA Aquarium. The ticket will allow you … Continue reading →

It’s called the S.E.A. Aquarium and you can take the train called the Sentosa Express (using your MRT card) from the Sentosa Station at VivoCity (it’s just next to Food Republic). It deducts S$3.50 from your card and you need … Continue reading →

Finally Tried the Udon at Tamoya

Posted on March 31, 2013 by bookjunkie

Finally tried out the new udon place at Liang Court. It’s at level 1 but located in an obscure corner next to the Food Court. Missed it on another occasion and had Shakey’s Pizza instead. Prices are reasonable but it’s … Continue reading →

Chanced Upon a New Coffee Place at Millennia Walk: Commune

Posted on March 5, 2013 by bookjunkie

I’m always happy to find a new coffee place as an alternative to the chain ones like Starbucks, which I now realize make really weak coffee. Nice quiet seating area too and I guess quiet as most people haven’t discovered … Continue reading →

New Cafe: Dolce Tokyo at Somerset 313

Posted on February 24, 2013 by bookjunkie

Branding really does count, because at first glance, I was impressed by this new cafe at 313 Somerset that had replaced Blue Mountain cafe, but once I saw that MOF was the company behind it, it fell a couple of … Continue reading →

A Day at 100AM Mall: Dragons, Lions, Hong Kong Style Pastries

Posted on February 23, 2013 by bookjunkie

My second time at 100AM mall. As you can see, I was pretty enthralled by the Imperial Dragon Bakery Cafe logo. It reminds me of the traditional depiction you see in Chinese paper cuttings. I know it’s excessive – more … Continue reading →

Posted on January 15, 2013 by bookjunkie

Wrote about it at White as Milk. Also shared what disgusting meal I used to love as a kid. You’ll be pretty grossed out. Would love to hear what odd food you favoured as a child that you find disgusting … Continue reading →

New Maison Kayser at Wheelock

Posted on January 6, 2013 by bookjunkie

Service here is great although it’s a bit less peaceful than the one at Scotts Square. However lazy me will probably pop by here more often as it’s closer to Orchard MRT and just at the connection between ION and … Continue reading →

Posted on December 30, 2012 by bookjunkie

Discovered a new mall, 100 AM which I’ll blog about soon, as well as another chicken Ramen place that satisfies us immensely. My only issue is that it was a bit salty. Between this and the one at Plaza Singapura’s … Continue reading →

St Marc Cafe: Strawberry Milk Parfait

Posted on December 22, 2012 by bookjunkie

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 →

Costa Coffee at Vivo

Posted on December 20, 2012 by bookjunkie

Now that St Marc has opened I don’t think I’ll be returning to Costa (also new) unless St Marc is too packed. Prefer the offerings there. Although to be fair I had tea at Costa instead of trying the coffee. … Continue reading →

Christmas Owls at Liang Court

Posted on December 17, 2012 by bookjunkie

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 →

Posted on December 10, 2012 by bookjunkie

Quite a pleasant place and I would return for the root beer float but not the chicken burger. Felt I had wasted calories with the very oily deep fried burger and the cheesy fries. B liked the beef burger though … Continue reading →

New at Turf Club Road: The Grandstand

Posted on December 10, 2012 by bookjunkie

Doesn’t seem a popular thing to say, but please let me whine that sometimes Singapore is boring. There is not much change in terms of weather and not much of nature to explore as we are an extremely tiny island. … Continue reading →
