It’s time for tea at Tart Blanc, which is a little tart specialty cafe that serves up an array of artisanal desserts/pastries (tarts, cookies & macarons), gourmet sandwiches & wraps and fresh brews of coffee/tea. A cosy space with just 10 seats, this place is perfect for that leisurely afternoon tea and/or whenever you need […]
Update: This cafe has ceased operation. After a leisurely walk at Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park, the husband and I chanced upon Cafe Mojito that was located just across the road so in we went to grab some tea time refreshments. They had a small selection of cakes and pastries on display… …as well as some […]
Update: This cafe has ceased operations. I hate rainy weather but it makes me smile when I catch sight of a rainbow after the rain. Similarly, the cafe name ‘Rainbow Cottage’ really appeals to me because it sounds so cheery. The girlfriend and I decided to head to this small and cosy cafe for a […]
Sep 2017 update: For my latest review on Citrus By The Pool, check out this post and see what’s new on the menu. I come to Woodlands quite often but have never ventured beyond Causeway Point and Woodlands Civic Centre. Even when looking out for food options, I tend to only confine my search within […]
I love anything with yam so when I heard that Double Scoops in Ang Mo Kio serves up Orh Nee (‘yam paste’) ice cream, I just had to come by for a little treat. And I had this little fellow as company cos’ we were just next to each other by the wall. How cute, […]
Update: Closed on 31 December 2016. I was making my way to Tong Heng to grab my favourite egg tarts when I stumbled upon this Korean-inspired cafe which was located directly opposite the Chinatown Food Street. I was just captivated by the arty-farty feel of the cafe exterior which was likely trying to replicate the […]
Final stop of our latest JB food-hopping trip. If you’ve missed out my earlier two posts, here they are: Restoran Ya Wang @ Jalan Segget It Roo Cafe @ Jalan Dhoby After two filling meals of roast duck rice and chicken chop, the last thing I wanted was another savoury or carb-loaded meal. Barely a […]
After our roast meat meal at Restoran Ya Wang @ Jalan Segget, we ventured out to the streets again for further exploration and found ourselves stopping by It Roo Cafe for a second round of feasting. That’s what food-hopping is all about, isn’t it? Eat, eat and eat! 🙂 Well, no complains, really. Haha. Above […]
I used to work near United Square years back and would often come by the Cedele outlet here for their soups during lunch. Their curry pumpkin soup and home-style beef stew were (and still are) my favourites and what I also liked about dining there was the free flow of artisanal breads that they provided. […]
I came by City Vibe with H as we wanted to redeem our frozen yogurt treats that we got from Qoo10. We were quite surprised that even though Clementi was a bustling town centre, this mall that was located near to the MRT Station and next to Clementi Mall was just deserted even on a […]
Shrove Tuesday (also known as Pancake Day) is the day before Lent (the Christian season of preparation before Easter) begins and is celebrated in some countries by making and eating pancakes. This visit to Shrove Tuesday was a memorable one because it was the first time D and I went food-hopping together. I had brought […]
Before I conclude my review of our 3-night Straits of Malacca cruise onboard Princess Cruises’ Sapphire Princess, I thought I would share this little gem I found while exploring the streets of Georgetown on foot. We arrived in Penang on the 2nd day of our cruise and since it was only for a couple of […]
I was on my way to the spa some weeks back when I spotted Lady M at Orchard Central and just had to come back for a pampering pre-dinner treat. If you have a sweet tooth, you’re probably already very familiar with the brand. Hailing from New York, Lady M is often known as the […]
Update: The Mama Shop has closed w.e.f. Aug 2015. The husband and I went to Chinatown to shop for kitchenware and were about to make our way home from Pearls Centre but we couldn’t catch the CT8 bus in time which meant we had to wait for another 40 minutes for the next one. As […]
The husband and I wanted to have lunch at Nakhon Kitchen at Ang Mo Kio Avenue 10 but it was closed (without notice) on that day so we ended up eating duck rice from a nearby coffeeshop. We were about to make our way to Coffee Bean at AMK Hub for a coffee fix when […]
Flock Cafe is a family-run cafe nestled in a quiet side of Tiong Bahru that one can easily miss out on unless you’re going for the mee pok at Hua Bee (or Bincho yakitori restaurant by night) which is just next door. A modern outfit with a touch of industrial chic – natural wood & metal combined with concrete flooring – it’s […]
