We were in the mood for chilling out in a cafe and decided to head to S’Patisserie which we stumbled upon the other day while walking to Trang Tien Plaza. S’Patisserie 17-19 Hang Khay Hoan Kiem, Hanoi Vietnam Tel: +84 4 3938 5555 Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/SPatisserie.17/ It’s located across the road from the southern end […]

After completing one round of Truc Bach Lake (read my earlier post -> Truc Bach Lake, West Lake Hanoi and Bo Bia) on foot, we came to Highlands Coffee, a popular Vietnamese cafe chain. The 2-storey cafe was like a red boat docked at the pier – very eye-catching even from a distance. Hubby said […]

I was invited back to Citrus By The Pool for a food tasting session last week as they had recently launched a new brunch menu. For those of you who haven’t heard of this place or haven’t been here yet, Citrus By The Pool is a halal-certified casual dining cafe and restaurant located at Woodlands […]

Ask any local where to get good old Hainanese coffee in Georgetown, Penang, I’m sure he or she will likely point you to Toh Soon Cafe which is just two streets away from the famous Line Clear Nasi Kandar and is located in a back alley off Lebuh Campbell. It was a late afternoon on […]

The last time I came to Penang, I had a lovely tea break at Coffee Affairs that served up decadent mille crepes and cheesecakes. While exploring, I also discovered several other hipster cafes in the old quaint streets of Georgetown that I felt would be worth a separate cafe hopping trip. And indeed, this time […]

Update: This cafe has ceased operations w.e.f. October 2016. I must admit, I’m now an addict. Hopelessly addicted to anything salted egg, lol. What used to be something that my ah gong or ah ma would pair with plain rice congee is now a nationwide sensation. How incredible. I used to patronise Irvin’s Live Seafood […]

I ditched the panda for the kangaroo this time. 🙂 Previously, I would often use Foodpanda to order food online and have it delivered to my doorstep on lazy days when I just didn’t want to cook or even go out and buy. Now I’m a convert and I’ve been using Deliveroo ever since I […]

I’ve long heard about the cafes at Bukit Merah Central that have garnered raving reviews on social media but it’s a part of Singapore that I don’t really come to often because it’s quite out of the way for me. When I was at IKEA Alexandra the other day, I thought I’d just swing by the […]

Latest update: This cafe has closed w.e.f. Jan 2016. This used to be a hair-salon-cum-cafe by the name of Take 2 Cafe Take 2 Saloon but as the cafe was doing so much better than the salon, it is now changed to a full-fledged cafe. Take 2 Cafe is a family-run establishment that serves up […]

Every time the husband and I walked past Humble Beginnings at JB City Square, we kept saying to ourselves that we would come back for their mille crepes next time but it never did happen. So at our last JB exploration trip when we came back to JB Sentral from AEON Bukit Indah, we immediately […]

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 […]
