On Thursday night when I got home, I had a “surprise” waiting for me at home – Chu had flown in from Thailand in time for my birthday on Monday. So last night, we had dinner at 7101 Flavours in Marina Square, his favorite restaurant in Singapore. We had our staple green mango ensalada, sisig, […]
Blissful Dinner
We decided to celebrate our first year anniversary in Singapore with dinner at our favorite restaurant, Bliss, which is located in our park, Punggol Park. We ordered the same things that we had ordered months ago when we were celebrating Gelle’s new job (of which her last day was last Friday, by the way) – […]
Heering Accessorize 2009
Last week, I joined a contest in Elle Magazine via their Facebook group and won a pair of tickets to the finale of Heering Accessorize 2009 – the world championship in fashion mixing and drink designing. Mixologists create a Heering cocktail inspired by a haute couture dress and designers create a Heering cocktail dress inspired […]
Chi’s Marche Birthday
We had a belated birthday celebration for Chi at Marche in Vivo City last night. Marche is a swiss restaurant that has several clusters of cooking stations that you have to visit to get your order, and each time you order, your food card gets swiped, and you will pay it at the counter. There […]
Culture Overload
I don’t know who first discovered cultures, but I thank him from the bottom of my heart. They’re one of the few things I love that are actually good for my body, and I don’t mind gobbling them up as often as I can. But if the saying “too much of anything is bad” is […]
When I Fell In Love with Sushi
I am not supposed to be a fan of sushi or sashimi. I am not a fan of raw fish unless it’s in the form of kilawin (or ceviche, as it is known in South America), which does not really taste raw because the vinegar’s acidity “cooks” the fish. But last Tuesday when my former […]
KFC’s Oriental Chicken Salad
I was craving for salad for lunch, and was supposed to head for Pepper Lunch and have a shake-shake salad but got waylaid because I needed to get something from Guardian. KFC was nearby, and that’s where I got a salad instead – their oriental chicken salad. I ordered it ala carte because I already […]
(Not) Just Noodles
What do you do when you have a sweet tooth that you want to satisfy but you know that you gotta eat a real meal to satiate your stomach’s basic needs and you only have 10sgd on you? You head over to Just Noodles. Despite the name, it does not serve just noodles, but all […]
Red Mango Frozen Yogurt
I am a huge fan of yogurt, most especially of frozen yogurt. The best one I’ve come across so far is Red Mango. The tart frozen yogurt was first introduced in Korea but later became the rave in the United States. Singapore is lucky to have one store located in Suntec City Mall ground floor […]
Donut Bite (a Halloween Special)
One of the pics we entered under Cate’s name in the Donut Empire photo challenge won a $50 donut voucher. Last night, we attended the halloween-themed awarding ceremony held in Tanjong Katong…or rather, I did. Gelle and Cate arrived after the ceremony was done, but still in time to load up on free-flowing donuts and […]
