This year’s birthday was kinda interesting because, at first, I thought that I was going to have to work the evenings of my birthday week. Thus, I scheduled dinner with my family on the “off day” and then my originally planned Friday dinner with friends was then cancelled with a date to be confirmed. However,...
Look what greeted me at home one day! Such a nice gift from Nutella Singapore! Tada! My personalised Nutella! Now I can safely say that the jar of Nutella has my name on it! If you’re wondering where you can get yours, the roadshow at Bugis+ unfortunately ended on 13 Sep. However, you can go...
Located at a corner where Cecil Street meets Marina Boulevard, The Black Swan resides in an 1930s building which used to be a bank. Running with the Art Deco theme, the Lo & Behold Group transformed it into The Black Swan, which serves classic cuisine that borders on being French-Americano. Upon entering the restaurant, you...
The first time I ever consciously knew that I was drinking a Macallan whisky was last year, when we opened 2 bottles of it during a colleague’s (now ex-colleague) leave-do. Fast forward a year later and here I am at the “Toast The Macallan” event held at Marina Bay Sands Convention Hall. I went to...
If you’ve read my previous post on Bridge Cafe, Restaurant & Bar, you would’ve known how impressed I was with the food and so, I decided to bring my colleague there for his leave-do. Again, I ordered their Executive Set II but I went for the Chicken Roulade for the mains. Again, I was heavily...
What do you do after a Mookata session at Boat Quay? Go for desserts of course!

Otherwise, walk up to their display counter...
Was invited by Harper’s Bazaar to attend Longchamp’s 20th anniversary of their signature Le Pliage, which was held at Longchamp’s ION store on Thu, 30th October. Of course there was champers and I was really delighted to find out that Longchamp has shoes and clothes too! Interestingly, they only had ballet flats and sneakers. No...
There is a recent slew of hipster cafes popping up all across Singapore and Bridge Cafe seemingly seems like one, with a vintage bicycle propped outside. Nonetheless, this is a cafe that I came back a couple of times because I really like how it’s quiet, the ambience is relaxing and the food is damn...
I searched online for quite some time and read tons of reviews before choosing to celebrate my birthday with my family at The Clan Restaurant, located at the quiet Bukit Pasoh. +ladyironchef rated it as one of the top places to bring your date without breaking your wallet and thus, I thought that this would...
I must say that I didn’t pick these dishes and I do know that some of the following are NOT the signature dishes of Lei Garden. Nonetheless, I guess these dishes will also give you an inkling of what not and what to order if and when you do go to Lei Garden at CHIJmes....
