Friday, Friday, FRIDAAAAY! Since it’s the beginning of the weekend, I thought I’d share with you 3 drinking spots worth checking out in Singapore. Because, Friday! But first, to get you in the mood, and because I’m listening to it right now, this song – I just wanna dance, I feel gooooooood ♬ AY, WAIT. The below…
AFTERNOON TREAT: CHOCOLAT CHAUD FROM ANGELINA
Day 3 of being unemployed, and I am actually feeling productive. Have been cooking meals, have done batches of laundry (and tidied up!), and my boxes have just arrived which means I should be packing soon. I am hoping my productivity streak will flow over into packing because to be honest, looking at these 2…
SINGAPORE BRUNCH FILES: SELFISH GENE, PRIVE, MARMALADE PANTRY
Because brunch is such a big thing here in Singapore (I’m not complaining, I LOOVE IT!), I figured I’d post about some eateries I’ve visited and share my honest reviews in case you happen to be in the area or you know, you need new brunch spots. Bon appétit! 1. Selfish Gene Cafe @ China Town Nestled…
BEYOND PAD THAI: SPICY THAI ~ THAI CAFE
Exactly one week ago, I had the privilege to sample Spicy Thai ~ Thai Cafe together with a bunch of bloggers. Going to a food tasting with actual food bloggers really got me to step up my photography game, man! Haha! Not that it was any problem because they brought out dish after dish of mouthwatering goodness.…
NOPE, DIDN’T SEE THAT COMING
Had a couple big shocks yesterday. For someone whose days are all normally chill, that’s really eventful. First, there was a blast on the side of my desk. I was typing up a quote (a rate quotation; not exactly the kind of quote I wish I were writing, hehe!), when there was a loud BOOM and I saw…
HIDDEN JAPANESE GEM IN PARKWAY PARADE
I’ve said this a million times, I loooove Japanese food. Lucky for me, my boyfriend shares the same liking. We could eat Japanese food everyday and you won’t hear us complain. One of our go-to’s is Fish Mart Sakuraya. I first learned of this place on my first year in Singapore when my boss and some colleagues…
THAT FAMOUS CEBU LECHON
If you’re in Cebu, it would be blasphemous not to try the lechon (roast pig). Prior to my trip to the Queen City of the South, I asked my cousin Luigi for recommendations and one of his suggested places was Zubuchon, you know, the “best pig, ever” according to Anthony Bourdain. A quick Google Maps search…
MY FAVORITE THAI FIX
One of the special skills I’ve learned living in Singapore is eating spicy food. It was something I wouldn’t dare touch in my previous life, but now, not only can I stand it, I actually look for it in certain dishes like the famous Thai delicacy: Tom Yum soup. From small restaurants under HDB blocks…
BRUNCH AT COASTAL SETTLEMENT
Backlog, schmacklog, I’m gonna dive in on a super recent post. As recent as this afternoon when Luke and I went to The Coastal Settlement for late lunch. Bad idea coz we had a steamboat gathering. In our defense, we thought eating would start later on, hehe! When we got to our seats, we were…
2015 MOMENTS: ARTICHOKE X COCOTTE COLLAB BRUNCH
I love to eat. I think that’s the main reason why I’ve gained so much weight here in Singapore. But before you all give me a collective “DUH!!!“, let me elaborate a bit. Living on your own means you’re in charge of taking care of your own meals. As much as I love the place…
BRUNCH AT SIN LEE FOODS
It’s Sunday! We all know what that means – BRUNCH! Tiong Bahru is always a weekend hotspot for foodies. There’s a certain Brooklyn vibe to it with cool cafes and eclectic shops side by side each other. A little further north from the hustle and bustle of Yong Siak Street, which is quietly nestled beneath HDB blocks, lays…
