{Cotton On dress, Christian Louboutin pumps, Michael Kors bag} Last Saturday, I got to enjoy the ballet with my Tita Becky. I was really excited when she messaged me because it’s been a while since I’ve watched ballet and remember how 7-year old me was enthralled by Lisa Macuja Elizalde? Well, this performance was under her…
PADMA HOTEL BANDUNG
Bandung food and sights aside, the thing I had really been looking forward to about our trip (aside from spending quality time together with the boyfriend, love love mwah mwah, haha) was our lodging: Padma Hotel Bandung. I mean, come on, it looked so pretty in photos! We had a rocky start with it though.…

FINE FRENCH DINING AT LE NORMANDIE, MANDARIN ORIENTAL BANGKOK

DATE NIGHT AT AL FORNO
Al Forno is one of the more recommended Italian eateries in Singapore by Google and my Facebook friends. It’s also quite nearby (East coast, baby!) meaning it’s accessible but at the same time it’s something you can put off going to coz it’s just there anyway. Finally tried it and although the Panzarotti Classici (pasta stuffed…
TRADITIONAL CHINESE WEDDING DINNER IN SINGAPORE
I’ve previously mentioned that if you wanna immerse yourself in a foreign country, you should attend their weddings. It’s easier said than done though as I doubt there’s a lot of couples willing to invite strangers (or those who they aren’t that close with) to their big day. Lucky for me, after 2 and a half…
FOODIE DIARY: SABOTEN
A foodie photo diary of one of my favorite places in Singapore – Saboten over at Changi Airport Terminal 1. My boyfriend and I love our japanese food so we often take advantage of the Changi staff menu available to airport pass holders. Not only is it close to work, the staff is friendly and…
FOODIE DIARY: OUTBACK STEAKHOUSE MILLENIA WALK
I looove steak. If I had to choose just one favorite food (not cuisine!) in the whole entire world, it has got to be steak. So when I saw a Groupon deal for Outback Steakhouse, I didn’t hesitate clicking on “Buy now!”. I guess I should’ve asked for second opinion because as soon as I told my…
COMMON MAN SUNDAY
Happy Sunday everyone! For the common man, Sundays have always been ideal for lazing around and sleeping in. I am one of those people who turn into lazy bears on Sundays. Good thing for brunch or else I wouldn’t leave the bed at all! If you’re like me and you need a bit of inspiration…
