The trend nowadays seem to be making fine dining cheap while cafes are making simple fare extravagant and expensive. I’m all for affordable gourmet!! For my boss’ birthday lunch, the whole bunch of us went to Saveur at Purvis Street to sample their affordable French. Started by 2 friends who did stints at Guy Savoy...

Happy New Year!! Welcoming 2013
Happy New Year folks! It’s 2013 and I most certainly hope that it’ll be better than 2012. Wishing ALL of you the best of health and wealth for the new year and even if that doesn’t come true, make lemonade with the lemons life throws at you! I must say that my NYE was pretty...

Merry Christmas!!
Happy happy Christmas everybody! It’s tough during this festive period to stick to any diet and it’s true…just look at what I have eaten: Roast beef, red wine, roast chicken and chocolate pear log cake. Forgot to take a pic of the seafood risotto that mum cooked too. So much for no red meats, alcohol...

Can you spot it? I must say that people are getting more creative with their greetings. Unfortunately, I’m too busy to be...

An ad agency that we use sent me this Christmas Game/Card which is THE best that I’ve ever received in a long long time. Especially in this age of e-cards, this Kungfu themed game is just so cute. Thanks PulpByte! 🙂

Nails for the week – 9 Dec 2012 Merry Christmas!
This has got to be my most time-consuming nail art with the most colours used…ever. Pardon the cock-eyed Rudolph. My hand shook slightly when I was dotting his eye and he now has 1 good eye and 1 wonky one. Oops. This was a pretty ambitious design and I think I’ll be leaving this on...

In a mood for Christmas
I’m in the mood for Christmas!!! It all started off with Canele’s Christmas macarons… Above is Chestnut and Elderflower, although they also have Gingerbread as well as a Cranberry one too…I think. Anyhows, I love the chestnut flavoured one while I felt that the Elderflower macaron was so-so. These little things aren’t cheap at $3...
