Hubby and I were on the way home in a taxi after paying respects to my late grandmother. We passed by Upper Thomson Road so decided to alight there to grab some brunch. Had seen this prata place for the longest time ever and since we hadn’t tried before, we settled on this. Here’s a […]

Outback Steakhouse @ orchardgateway

Wow, how long had it been since I ate at Outback Steakhouse? At least 10 years probably, lol. I remembered visiting their outlet in Bangkok when I was there on holiday with a colleague. I was planning a birthday meal for D not too long ago and it was quite tough because there were different […]

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.

This Indonesian Bamboo Cake stall is located along Trengganu Street just opposite Fatty Weng Restaurant.
