WANT ANYTHING FROM SINGAPORE? My mom’s text read. I gave it some thought before ultimately replying “Mmm, no.” Truth is, there were a hundred and one things I wanted from Singapore but nothing my mom could check-in on her flight back to Manila. It’s been over a year since I was last at the Little…
Sunny Afternoons and Brunch
How today’s sunny afternoon transported me to brunch in Singapore
WISHFUL DRINKIN’
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…
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…
ALL ABOUT THOSE GOLDEN NIGHTS
A quick blog post before I shut my laptop off and shun human contact for the next 12 or so hours. My sore throat has evolved to loss of voice and now to fever symptoms. Word of advice, NEVER google how you’re feeling. I just did and I’m kinda freaking out now. Anyway, I’m just gonna…
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…
