Last night I met up with the UE Square girls. Our meeting was a popular restaurant named Spize the Makan Place. I had never been there, before, though, so I took a cab to get there and the following conversation ensued between me and the driver. Me: 409 River Valley Road, please.Driver: Do you know […]
The Ramen Girls
I met the “ramen girls” for lunch at our favorite ramen place for lunch – Marutama Ra-men. It serves the best-tasting ramen and seasoned egg I have ever had. It was raining – the perfect weather for ramen. It also meant that we had to ride a cab from UE Square to Liang Court even […]
Best Filipino Food in Singapore
Years ago, if someone asked me what my favorite cuisine was, I’d reply that I wasn’t sure, maybe Italian or Chinese and that Mexican food ain’t bad, too. That was before I left my country. Now, when someone asks me what my favorite cuisine is, my answer is a resounding “Filipino food!” Thank goodness we […]
Doubly Delicious
I was in Wheelock Place the other day when I walked past The Big O and its counter of delicious looking cakes. In most other stores, I’d be really confused as to which to buy – cheesecake or chocolate mousse? Here, both of my favorites had been married into one slice – the Big O […]

7107 Flavours and Reverse Bungy in One Night
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 […]
