Tucked away in an idyllic yet hard-to-find place near Dempsey Hill is a wonderful glass house called PS Cafe which serves full day brunches during the weekends. Somehow Ngangi discovered it, and that’s where we celebrated her birthday. Â By hard-to-find, I meant my cab had to circle the place several times before we found it, […]

Flooded Singapore
This morning: Gary volunteered to come fetch me from the bus stop where I was stranded, saying, “I don’t think the rain will stop. Then you’ll be stuck there till lunchtime, so cold and with nothing to eat.” He had a point. Glad he came to my rescue. Then everything would have been awesome if […]
The Sweetest Muffins: Chocolat N Spice
Chocolate and spice and everything nice… that’s what these muffins are made of. I highly recommend the chocolate chip and chocolate flavors, toasty warm or ref-cold depending on your preference. The cheese is not bad too, but my issue with it is that the cheese is only at the bottom. I prefer my cheese muffins […]
Elma’s Birthday in Bakerzin
Last Thursday Elma invited us to celebrate her birthday with dinner at Bakerzin. I had my favorite pasta dish – spaghetti aglio olio. It was good, but it could’ve been better. However I loved the spaghetti bolognese which I swiped from Cate’s plate, the tomato soup which tasted like spaghetti sauce, and the strawberry-flavored Italian […]
We Bake Our Cake and Eat It Too
Yehey! One more item off my bucket list! Chi decided it was time we learned how to bake. AA found this recipe which we decided to follow (after all, you can’t go wrong with Hersheys, right?) and I found a video from Insightful Nana for good measure. Ingredients 2 cups sugar 1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour […]
Boss Ed in Singapore
Boss Ed, my former boss from KPMG in Makati, was in Singapore for a business trip, so we met up for dinner last night. I brought him to Funan Digitalife Mall since he said he wanted to check out gadgets but it closed early at 9pm so he wasn’t able to buy anything. He said […]
One Hell of a Summer
My colleague recently went on reservice training. All Singaporean guys are called by the government to go on military “reservice” training once in a while where they are taught how to be soldiers so that they would know how to defend their country just in case it went to war. I have to say, their […]
Blackie
We have an adopted dog in our company. Apparently one of the neighbors own her, but she’s always at our place, probably because our mechanic always dotes on her and de-fleas her and you know it’s lunch time when you hear him calling out for her in a loud, sing-song voice. “Blackie!” he sure gives […]
Nando’s Peri-Peri Chicken in Singapore
Our favorite peri-peri chicken has taken its roost in Singapore. We loved it so much that we ate it for two meals during our Kuala Lumpur vacation last year. So when Gelle announced that there was now a branch in Bugis Junction, Chi made a last minute invite for dinner there. And by last minute, […]
