Sigh. There’s a scary backlog of posts piling up. I shall do the unusual and start backwards. Part of the reason is because this post was such a fond memory. This year’s gathering wasn’t as big as the previous year’s, but this meant we could have more cosy interaction. The event was meticulously organized by [...]

This is a really belated post. I think it dates back to April, when I lunched with Vincent in Raffles Place. He took me to this tiny sandwich shop that serves awesome hot sandwiches! Ok, perhaps, that was an overly bold statement to make for a first visit. But the two subs we shared were [...]

Two weeks ago, Camemberu and I played tai-tais for an afternoon! I say “played” because we aren’t rich ladies of leisure. Desperate housewives is more like it, hee! Anyway, prior to that, we both had a somewhat trying time (work + family issues). So we said, hey, why not splurge a bit and reward ourselves? [...]
Posted in Eat-Out: Non-Asian, Hubby's breakfast on Apr 25th, 2010

Having heard that Spruce is always fully booked on weekends, I made a reservation 5 days in advance for Sunday breakfast. Instructions from the [...]

French food + wine? Oui! Pizza/BBQ wings + beer? Yeah, baby! But, French haute cuisine + beer?? A few weeks ago, Singha Beer — produced since 1933 in Thailand, and the most popular beer in its native country — commissioned celebrity Chef Emmanuel Stroobant of Saint Pierre to create a special beer-pairing luncheon. Naturally, I [...]

This was a quick dinner we grabbed before our night photography workshop at the Singapore Flyer. Rick and I got two combo meals to “share share”.

Has it been eight years already? How time flies. So, where should we celebrate another year of wedded bliss? Naturally, the stressful task of choosing the perfect venue fell on the foodie’s shoulders (mine, who else?). As we had to attend a workshop that night, I suggested taking the day off to indulge in a [...]

I remember that when Subway first started out in Singapore, it was met with cool reception. Firstly, we were more into rice and noodles rather than sandwiches. Secondly, who would want to pay 5 bucks for just a sandwich when we could have a full meal (main course + beverage) at the hawker centre or [...]

This is priceless! Rick and I had a hoot taking this pic while waiting for our food to ermm, come.

Occupying the premises of a former army barracks, House is a lifestyle concept that houses (sorry, I couldn’t resist) a spa, cafe, and bar. This is how the cafe’s name comes about. But this is also where any association with an army camp ends, for Barracks resembles nothing like a military mess hall. From chic, [...]
