I made strawberry shortcakes on Thursday night simply because I felt like eating them. The strawberry shortcakes that I made are the traditional type, meaning that it is made with shortbread and not sponge cake, which is what you get in most (if not all) cake stores in Singapore. Brought this to work and it...

Durian outing!!
I went to Malaysia with my mum yesterday for a durian trip! YES…it was a whole day full of stuffing our faces with food! Woke up at 6 am (I know…how rare I do so after graduating from secondary school) to reach our church (mum’s church friend organised the whole package tour) at 6.45am and...
Honeymoon Dessert
What do you do when you finish eating dinner and you’re not quite filled? Dessert of course!My family and I went to the new Honeymoon Dessert at Vivo City and here’s what I ordered: Durian with black Thai glutinous rice in vanilla sauce (SGD 6.50). The durian was very good and I was pleasantly surprised...
Hiatus apology :P
First off, apologies for the long ‘silence’ except for the post-dated posts below on my US trip. I’ve been so busy with CNY and regular work that I was exhausted for the whole of last week and finally gave in to see a doctor yesterday who pronounced me infected with a virus. Enough with my...
Niagara Falls…I’m sooo going back again!
It was a bright and early morning and off we went to Niagara Falls again! It’s butt/ fingers/ any exposed body part FREEZING!! Doesn’t help that the wind and mist from the falls make it worse! But the view….awesome!!! I’m soooooo going to Canada one day and see the falls from the Canadian side. Gorgeous...
moooving along…
Still enroute to Niagara Falls and we stop by Hershey’s!! The chocolate tour is a short ride with singing cows and the usual explanation on how chocolate is manufactured. At the risk of sounding atas (snobbish for those non-Singaporeans), I couldn’t help but miss my Godiva, Lindtt and Sins. That didn’t stop us from buying...
Last Day in WI
Got woken up at 7am (ughs…I’m not a morning person) to hug my cousin goodbye before he went off to school as this was our very last day in Wisconsin!! I tumbled back to bed but as tired as I was…I was woken up by the wonderful smells of muffins and pancakes… My aunt made...
Restaurant review – Ippudou
I’m soooo happy that Ippudou is in Singapore!! The first time that I went to Ippudou was in Fukuoka, Japan which is where Ippudou originated as the noodles are the typical Tonkotsu Hakata ramen. See the words in red next to the black ‘Ippudou’ kanji? That reads as ‘Hakata’, which is an area in the...
Lunch at Iggy’s
I was treated to a gorgeous, excellent, wonderful lunch at Iggy’s yesterday and after that experience, I seriously think that EVERY Singaporean should go there at least ONCE in their lifetime. Just splurge on a lunch (their lunch menus are SGD55++) one day. Treat yourself. You will not regret it. Just make sure that you...
Saturday Night Fever
Hmm…not sure whether you are able to see the word in the above pic…but it is Brotzeit! Went to this German pub/ restaurant at Vivo with Siew Mai and Mel Li on Sat evening for dinner and it was quite a nice place to chow, drink beer and chat with friends. The atmosphere isn’t chi-chi...
