After having a hearty breakfast at Happy 3 Bites Cafe, my ‘PIC’ and I hopped over to Batterworks where we spent the longest time in out of the three cafes we visited at Everton Park. This cafe was such a sweet find. Clearly a hidden gem in this quiet neighbourhood. I loved its cosy ambience, […]
Update: This cafe is now closed. My ‘partner-in-crime’ and I dedicated a Saturday as our brainstorming day to talk about our business plans and it couldn’t have been a better time to pick a quaint and quiet area to discuss things in peace while enjoying a good cuppa with assorted bites on a lazy afternoon. And so we were here at Everton Park, […]
I had long heard about the vintage high tea at House at Dempsey but hadn’t had the chance to visit earlier as the high tea is only available on Thursdays and Fridays. Just when I was planning a day out for the husband’s Big 3-0 birthday two weeks ago, I realised his big day was […]
After our morning outing to the River Safari on my birthday, the husband and I headed home to get changed and left for the Fullerton Bay Hotel where we enjoyed a relaxing afternoon, indulging in an elegant high tea in full view of the waterfront panorama of the Marina Bay. “Built in 1933, Clifford Pier […]
Palais Renaissance in Orchard Road is probably on one of the less busy stretches of the area. I only frequented this particular place during my school days in the 90s when I was working part time at a Brit company located in Orchard Towers and the office manager would sometimes treat me to lunch at […]
When I last blogged about the palmier I had from Galicier Confectionery (read the post here), I made a comment that the one from Marks and Spencer Bakery was much better so when I dropped by Wheelock Place earlier, I decided to grab some bakes to go. In the beginning when M&S had revamped its flagship […]
When I was recently blogging about Tea Lounge @ Regent Hotel where its scones are very popular with the locals, I was reminded of the best tea time experience I’ve ever had when I visited the birthplace of William Shakespeare at Stratford-upon-Avon. Getting a taste of olde England in Shakespeare’s hometown was something very surreal to me. […]
If you’ve read my earlier post on L’Espresso @ Goodwood Park Hotel, you’d know how much I had enjoyed my dining experience there. And it’s definitely double bliss, now that I have also found another high tea buffet that could be on par with L’Espresso’s. Tea Lounge at the Regent Singapore serves an eclectic mix […]
If brunch equals to breakfast plus lunch, then high tea should be lunch plus dinner. That is why I adore high teas! And L’Espresso would be my ultimate choice for an ‘elegant teatime pursuit’ that exudes pure indulgence in a modern English, sophisticated setting. The English Afternoon Tea Buffet at L’Espresso is available daily with […]
Sunday is best spent with a good brunch coupled with a laid-back and tranquil setting. Given Singapore is such a concrete jungle, it is rather rare to find a place that fits the bill. I first heard of Spruce from a colleague and decided to head over for a lazy weekend brunch with my good […]
I love British street food. I have tasted good fish & chips while in the UK esp. the fresh cod ones. Not sure why this outlet is labelled as a British Take Away though I don’t recall seeing such greasy deep fried snacks around when I was there. Even my Brit husband said this was […]
I was invited to a launch party at the newly opened Avalon club here at MBS but was made to wait at the door as there was another private event going on – so much for having a VIP invite. Feeling annoyed, I suggested to the husband to go in MBS and have tea while […]
My colleague and I decided to indulge in some comfort food after a depressing day at work. Sharkie Freeze ($6.50 per big glass for 2-pax to share) Their signature passion fruit blend that is huge enough to be shared by 2 persons. Have them split […]
A day of exploring the Marina area brought us to The Sail where we spotted a lovely looking, no-frills bistro with open air seating area. It was such a breezy afternoon that we had to hide behind a pillar wall to prevent bad hair days while dining. And we love the concept of this bistro […]
While my first entry on Muddy’s was about its lunch/dinner menu, for now I would like to highlight its equally good bar food menu. A great place to hang out after work. I invited two of my colleagues to join me this time round. Mango/Lime/Strawberry daiquiri ($16.00 per glass) You can order a normal daiquiri […]
I had tried this once some years back with an ex-colleague and it didn’t leave a very deep impression in me then. Perhaps my stomach had gone out to Fish & Co. (its direct competitor). For some reasons, I decided to give it a second chance and to see if the quality (and taste) of […]
