Updates

It has been more than a yr since i last blog! I have got so much to blog but dunno to start from where. im quite lazy to post abt e happening for e past yr and even thot of just to continue writing from here. But for memories sake, i will just post some of e photos up. Enjoy!

long overdue pics.

I never like ytf but Fu Lin ytf is different from e usual. I heard is a different style of ytf. Anyway, i find it pretty nice esp e sauce of the beehoon.

Went to e cheesecake cafe afterwhich. It is located within walking distance from Fu Lin ytf. They have very interesting concept for the cafe but we are not allowed to take pictures of e cafe w/o anyone inside e pics, thus all e pics above have us in it. We only ordered a few cakes to share since we are still full from e prev ytf.

his and his favourite, char siew bao!

They have quite a variety of choices for e dim sum. Other than e menu dishes, they also have a table in e center of e restaurant displaying food that is not on e menu, whereby u can order e dishes displayed on e table from e chefs over there. Prices are pretty reasonable too!

happy birthday dearest!

Had this for Bry’s bday brunch, is actually more of me wanting to try than him. hah! Anyway, it was my first time there. If im not wrong, their signature dishes are English breakfast, Tunisian, and European. So i decided to try their Tunisian (smth like tomato stew) for smth different and bry ordered European. Hmm, maybe im not really a tomato-ey person so i dun actually love e dish.

BUT, u shld try e English breakfast! I ordered that e 2nd time i went and i love it! e ambience was cosy and relaxing too! Definitely a nice place to chillax.

tung lok ala carte seafood buffet!

thanks bry for the yummy treat!

This is called ala carte seafood buffet coz e dishes u ordered from e menu is all ala carte dishes like what u normally order when u go eat tze char, just that this is a buffet, meaning u can order as many time as u want provided u can finish it. And they only charge u for the buffet price! It’s so worth it esp when u go in bigger grp, u can try all e dishes available on e menu!

happy birthday Singapore!

ah boy’s bday dinner.

21st!

congrats Sharon on ur graduation!

My family usually will order ice cream cake or four leaves choco exotic cake for bdays. Coz we dont really like those very creamy cake so we will usually buy among these few choices, but im sick of always eating e same cake! So this yr, i ordered e popular 717 trading durian cake for mummy bday! Hope she will like it!

Twelve Cupcakes

Happy 2nd Anniversary! =)

Melt – The World Cafe

It’s our anniversary! I have been wanting to try the Twelve Cupcakes and so we went to buy and also bought a few home for my family to try. What i like about it, is that it’s not too dry like other cupcakes and also, the presentation! But i still feel it is abit overrated and pricey for such a small cupcake. We then settled our dinner at Melt – The World Cafe at Mandarin Oriental. There are quite a variety of food like seafood, jap food, chinese food, and even indian food. Other than the food, what makes it commendable was the service we received. When Bry called to make the reservation, they did ask whether is it for any special occasion. So he told them it was for our anni but there’s no need for any special arrangement. Halfway through our meal, they surprised both of us by serving us a small cake for our anni. I thought that was pretty thoughtful on their part! Not to mention that they cleared our dirty plates and refilled our water when necessary too. Definitely a restaurant worth visiting again.

brunch at Spruce.

Did i mention that i love having brunch? Or rather breakfast but having it in e noon time, esp when im not a morning person. =X So we went to Spruce on my last bday. Hmm, it wasnt as good as what i had expected. Maybe my expectation was set too high after reading reviews on it. The pancakes lack of fluffiness, and i thot that was e most impt element of doing a good pancake. Main course wise, i ordered Spruce Big Brekkie and it tasted normal to me. Maybe i shld have order e eggs ben instead. I will try that if im there e next time!

i love my bday tart! =)

I ordered Chocolate Banana Tart for my own bday from Fruit Paradise!
my first try was in 2011 when i bought 2 different slice of tarts for bry’s bday. And since, i love it! I love e combination of chocolate and bananas and how they complement each other. im gg to order e same tart for my bday again this yr!

It’s a season filled with love and gifts! Due to e busy schedule, we hardly have e chance to meet up as a big grp.

valentine’s treat from David

valentine’s lunch at Equinox

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Equinox was having a 1-for-1 semi-buffet lunch promo, and so we had our pre-valentine’s lunch there! When i say semi-buffet, it means that u can order a main course off e selected items from e menu and e rest are from e buffet spread. They have a spread of sushi, sashimi, pasta, salad, soup, seafood, and of course not to forget e desserts like pastries and ice cream! For those who knows me, should know that i dont usually like cakes/pastries coz i find them too sweet for me. But e pastries at Equinox was really nice I would say. They are rich in flavour yet at e same time not overwhelming.

dept lunch at TCS

I like their truffle fries!

We had our dept lunch at The Coastal Settlement. The place has a concept of e 60s to 80s. They uses things in e older centuries to decorate the whole restaurant. Food wise, i only like e truffle fries. I thought, do they have free supply of salt?? Coz e food that we ate were all very salty! Or is it that we have a bigger grp thus e food quality not really up to standard since there are so much to prepare? But i do heard few of my colleagues commented that e pasta was ok. So maybe e next time u wanna try, u can try those.
