Feel So Happy Meeting with Two of My Cousins After Almost 4 Years
I have social anxiety, but I don’t feel it with people I’m comfortable with like my cousins. I practically saw them grow up, being the much older cousin. They were the cutest toddlers. It’s true what they say about cousins … Continue reading
TWG at Marina Bay Sands
Service still kinda sucks, but I can’t resist the pretty crockery and fragrant teas. The scones are some of the best I’ve had especially with the clotted cream and refreshing tea jam. The sandwiches are forgettable and pathetic for the … Continue reading

Back to Kampong Glam for Tea
The nasi lemak reminded me of what we would get in Malaysia but what is most comforting to me is the tea prepared by the experienced owner. Very humble settings next to the alcohol free perfume store. This sarabar stall … Continue reading

Another Visit to Jones The Grocer at ION
This was my third visit to this outlet of Jones the Grocer and I love the laid back vibe. It’s at the 4th level next to the bookstore and it never gets too crowded here. Again I tried something I’ve … Continue reading

The Providore at Mandarin Gallery
It’s always fun to try out brand new places and especially when you have great company. I must say firstly that this place reminds me of Jones the Grocer. It was very pleasant to sit here and chat. The decor … Continue reading

New Love for Pasarbella
What an absolute treat it was to visit Pasarbella, the upscale farmer’s market at Turf City (now called Grandstand), at an off peak hour. So peaceful and serene, I yearn to return. An extreme contrast to my very first visit … Continue reading

Lovely French Crepes & Creme Brulee at Paul
Was at Paul at Ngee Ann City (I refer to it as Taka even though Taka is just the department store section) again. The crepe reminded me of what we had in Paris. Sinful but so good. More pancake like … Continue reading

Liang Court: Tea at Dulcet & Studio Again
Think I’ll soon be a regular here. Love the cream puffs and it also happens to be their most popular item. The rose marble cake looked pretty but I found it too strong in terms of flavour. It was like … Continue reading

Best Teh Tarik in Singapore
Back at Kampong Glam for my favourite glass of tea in Singapore. The cafe which has no name but regulars will know where it is. Just opposite the Kampong Glam Cafe near Kandahar Street.
Ignored at PS Cafe (Dempsey)
It’s a pity as the ambience is so lovely. It seems like the wait staff were not making eye contact on purpose. It was so obvious. The people in the table next to us resorted to practically doing the wave … Continue reading

A Walk at Katong: Chin Mee Chin Coffee & Cake Shop
A long overdue post about Chin Mee Chin the old famous coffee shop at Katong. It is pretty sweet with it’s old style decor but I wasn’t impressed by the offerings. I would come here just for the decor and … Continue reading

Canele at Plaza Singapura
This was my second time at Canele, but my first time at this outlet at Plaza Singapura’s new wing. Whenever I feel guilty I try to have salad. But this salad was doused in salad dressing. Mentioned this to D … Continue reading

Hediard: Another Favourite Spot of Mine
Some things you can’t quite explain, but I like the vibe at Hediard in spite of the prices. Just my second time here but I’m charmed by the place hidden in a quaint little Tudor style building. I know the … 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

My Favourite Hotels for High Tea
Blogged about it here. If only the Fullerton Bay High Tea would start earlier and last longer like the one at Shangri-la, I would declare it as my top pick.

Best Teh Tarik in Singapore (Nameless Stall at Kampong Glam)
The elderly white bearded uncle at the little nameless tea shop, just opposite Kampong Glam cafe makes the best tea in Singapore hands down. It’s called a Sarabat stall (selling mainly drinks and run by mainly Indian Muslim owners) and … Continue reading

A New TWG at ION: Smug Service, but I’m a Sucker for the Tea
We have wanted to try the high tea at TWG but always miss out as we are there well before 3pm. It seems worthwhile. But now that I’ve tried it I’m not so sure. All the items are so tiny. … Continue reading

High Society: Lovely Chocolate Cocktail & Cupcakes
Glad D brought me here. It was her second time and my first and I was impressed by the tiny lemon cupcake I had. It was moist and the frosting was not too sweet. D liked her red velvet cupcake … Continue reading

French Comfort Food at Hediard
I just love the Tanglin area and it would be a dream to live here. It’s away from the bustle of town but not too far away either. I’ve always felt that Tudor Court is one of the most quaint … Continue reading
