Posted on May 26, 2015 by bookjunkie

Good meal starting off with really fresh chewy bread and an aromatic garlic butter. The ribs here are always good and the root beet float was fantastic (after not having one for ages).  I was not really feeling the spinach … Continue reading →

Posted on June 28, 2012 by bookjunkie

The good news is that the cafe at recently opened Dean & Deluca offers free ice water. It’s self service. Just look out for the pitchers at the counter. I only realized this later and if I had known I … Continue reading →

Vintage Cars at Orchard Central

Posted on June 22, 2012 by bookjunkie

B is a car person, me not so much. Sometimes he talks to me about cars and I drift away. I don’t even like driving so I’m glad he likes it. He does complain about the COE though and commented … Continue reading →

Posted on December 12, 2011 by bookjunkie

Had the worse crossaint ever at Tully’s at Orchard Central. It looked good, but turned out to be very dry, hard and stale. The only redeeming factor was the chocolate coating. I’ve had better ones here before and I do … Continue reading →

Pink Christmas at Orchard Central

Posted on December 9, 2011 by bookjunkie

From this angle you can see how steep and high the Orchard Central escalator is. Goes up 3 levels. Seems like they are trying to call the place OC.  But OC makes me think of that show about teenagers in … Continue reading →

Posted on July 6, 2011 by bookjunkie

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 →

Vertigo Caused by Tallest ‘Shopping Lady’ at Orchard Central

Posted on June 14, 2011 by bookjunkie

Trying to take a picture of this tall statue is definitely not for those with vertigo.  It goes up about 6 stories.  As you can see her red boots alone can dwarf you. Another unique feature at this mall, was … Continue reading →
