Once upon a time in the little red dot of a citydom called Singapore, there lived a damsel named Deepunzel (what kind of name is that?!?). She lived in an HDB tower in the middle of a concrete jungle. She had magnificent thick hair, as black as ebony and smooth as silk. But soon it was attacked by the Evil Hair […]

Benjamin Browns Bistro & Bakery {Foodee}
I was scrolling through my Instagram feed yesterday when I happened upon a picture of a drool-worthy “over the top” milkshake from Benjamin Browns Bistro & Bakery and knew that I had to try it! So I told my friends about it and when the haze PSI dropped below hazardous level this evening, we decided to go check […]
5 Years Corporate Anniversary
Last month I celebrated my 5 years anniversary in my company. Nowadays that’s considered a great feat, isn’t it? My team surprised me in our former SVP Vivek’s office. I was called in for a pretend issue and when I walked in the door, he popped a balloon in my face and everyone else yelled […]
Birthday Mooncake and Prosecco
Last Monday, my team gathered in the small pantry to throw a fake surprise birthday celebration for YM. Why fake? It was Guohao’s crazy idea. Yanming’s birthday is tomorrow but he’s on leave then, so he said we’d give him a surprise cake the day before that. But so that he won’t expect it, we’ll […]
The Food Journalist
I got a happy surprise when I opened the mailbox after lunch today. There was this magazine, and when I flipped it open to page 17… Anyone look familiar? Have a closer look. Did you spot me yet? 😀 I have to confess, it was a thrill to see my face in a magazine, even though it’s […]
Agrobazaar Malaysia @ Singapore {Foodee}
If you like Malaysian goods, I have just the place for you – Agrobazaar Malaysia, your one stop destination for Malaysian grown, Malaysian produced goods, authentic Malaysian Cuisine and great gourmet coffee. When we arrived, we were given welcome drinks then toured around the place. We started with KopieSatu, or commonly known as KopieSatu Café, where […]
Barbecue Team Building
We had a team building at my teammate’s condo last Sunday. The swimming pool looked so inviting! I wish I had brought a swimsuit. Or that I lived in a condo with a pool too. We had a barbecue and I was pleasantly surprised when my teammate’s roommate (who is Irish) cooked a Filipino dish […]
The Charm of Amsterdam {Deetour}
“So which was your favorite destination?” more than one person asked me after I came back from my 10-destination trip to Europe. “Ummm… I’m not sure,” I always replied. “I’m torn between Amsterdam and Paris.” I guess I was just afraid to pick one and make a mistake. I was in both places for two […]
My Birthday @ Brunches Cafe {Foodee}
Two nights before my birthday, my college friends and I had dinner at the chicest vintage-themed cafe in Jeff’s neighbourhood. I was trying to be a good girl, so I had a salad, which was really yummy! But then I couldn’t resist their iced coffee, which was a frozen coffee ice cube which you thawed out by pouring milk […]
Carlton City Hotel Birthday Staycation
A hotel staycation had always been in our Singapore bucket list, so I suggested doing that for my joint birthday celebration with Armar. Arlyn chose Carlton City Hotel and we booked a room using booking.com. We met up at Tanjong Pagar station and walked to the hotel on Saturday afternoon. I was wowed by their reception area. […]
