queic by Olivia at Jewel Changi Airport wasn’t on our original plan. Hubby just collected his new iPhone from the Apple Store and needed time to fiddle with it. We needed coffee. Then we spotted queic by Olivia, and Hubby’s eyes lit up. He’d been wanting to try their cheesecakes after seeing them all over […]
LIDL UK wasn’t even on my radar until I tried the doughnuts and cookies my FIL always buys from there. He’s a regular at the local store, making his weekly pilgrimage for these treats. My MIL needs her afternoon tea ritual sorted, and apparently, LIDL is the answer. After trying what he brought home, I […]
My hubby had actually preordered his iPhone 17, but after finding out that the Apple Store at Jewel Changi Airport had limited stock of the green one, he cancelled his online order and placed a new one for in-store pickup. We flew over to Jewel almost immediately—he just couldn’t wait to get his hands on […]
Poundland UK has been my favourite discount retailer for over a decade, and honestly, it’s one of the things I miss most about living in the UK. This place stocks everything from chocolates to beauty products, and the prices? Still ridiculously affordable. When I first walked into Poundland more than ten years ago, literally everything […]
Peng Guan Bak Kwa changed my entire perspective on affordable bak kwa in Singapore. I stumbled upon them on Qoo10 years ago when they were selling at $13 per 500g. That price already seemed brilliant. Fast forward to today, and they’re now $10 per 500g on Shopee. Yes, you read that right. The same deal applies […]
Loong Fatt Tau Sar Piah was my first tau sar piah love 15 years ago. It’s still my number one today. Back then, each pastry cost just $0.60. Now it’s $1.30. The price has more than doubled, but honestly? Still worth every cent and every calorie! I wrote about Loong Fatt Tau Sar Piah on […]
Taco Bell brings back memories from the early 2000s when their first Singapore outlet opened at Funan. My friends and I hung out there regularly because it offered something refreshingly different from the usual burger and fried chicken joints. This American fast food chain serves Mexican fare like tacos, burritos, and quesadillas that felt novel […]
One of my favourite things to do when I travel is to explore the local supermarkets, apart from sightseeing and eating of course. I don’t know why, but I find it oddly satisfying to wander through the aisles, check out the local produce, and discover interesting products that I’d never find back home in Singapore. […]
Millie’s Cookies has been that one treat we kept walking past, always telling ourselves we’d grab it next time. Well, next time finally came during our latest UK trip, and spoiler alert: we should’ve stopped sooner. Since 1985, this beloved UK brand has been baking up sweet memories across the nation. My husband grew up […]
