We stayed at Tribe Amsterdam City for four nights during our European adventure. After spending time with my in-laws in the UK, we hopped on the Eurostar to Amsterdam and checked into this boutique hotel that opened its doors in April 2022. We booked directly through the Accor website and paid €476.08 (about S$715) for […]

TESCO UK surprised me with what might be the best choux buns I’ve ever eaten. Right after raving about LIDL’s cookies in my previous post, here I am again, completely obsessed with another supermarket find. Who knew British supermarkets would become my unexpected dessert destination? Back in Singapore, I’ve tried plenty of fresh bakes from […]

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 […]
