ROPUDON 肉山の霸丼 at Permas City, Johor Bahru first came on my radar through RedNote posts flaunting their drool-worthy donburi bowls. I’ll admit, I was completely hooked by those pics. Since I was heading over to Plentong for some shopping at Eco-Shop and Ninso, and Permas City was right along the way, I figured it was […]
Every Monday evening, the area outside KSL City comes alive as the popular KSL pasar malam kicks off from 5pm. After indulging in a relaxing massage at nearby Thong Thai, we strolled over to join the crowds and see what the buzz was all about. The night market was a feast for the senses – […]
Not exactly sharing a long, detailed food review post about Hiap Joo Bakery & Biscuit Factory this time. I’ve already raved about their banana cake and coffee cake previously. But I thought I’d share their 2025 price list so you know what to expect before heading down to JB. There’s been a price increase since I last blogged […]

Getting to Amari Johor Bahru Same as last year, we arranged for a driver from the same Desaru car […]
Exactly one year after our Ironman adventure in Desaru, we found ourselves back at Anantara Desaru Coast Resort & Villas. Last year, we stayed at Westin Desaru Coast, but this time we fancied trying something different. Same arrangement as always – with a triathlon bike and massive suitcase in tow, we booked private car transport from […]
I needed to collect a cake from Awfully Chocolate at Tampines, and that gave me the perfect excuse to finally check out Abundance Taiwanese Restaurant & Craft Beer Bar at Century Square. I hadn’t been since it opened in September 2024, so I made a lunch reservation. What followed were two visits in just three […]
If you’ve been wondering whether Bird Paradise Singapore is worth a visit, let me share my experience from a recent day trip. Even as someone who wouldn’t call myself a bird lover, I had way more fun than expected! Starting Our Bird Paradise Adventure My hubby and I decided to arrive early to make the […]
