Okay, let me tell you about The Pakora Bar in Edinburgh because honestly, this place left such a strong impression on us. We went in not expecting much and came out absolutely stuffed, smiling, and still talking about the meal days later. It’s the kind of meal that ticks every box — food, vibes, service […]
After checking out from Novotel York Centre, we hit the road for a four-hour drive up to Edinburgh. Well, slightly longer if you count the lunch stop at a service station along the way. Our home base for the next four nights? Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile, and let me tell you, the location alone […]
Acai bowls are my weakness, especially on those lazy, humid Singapore afternoons when cooking feels like a chore and I just want something cold and refreshing. For years, An Acai Affair at Waterway Point was my Punggol go-to (basically the only game in town back then). But ever since The Summer Acai opened at One […]
Back again for another June Bakery review, and honestly, I’m not even surprised at myself. Hubby and I checked into PARKROYAL on Beach Road for our third staycation, and the first thing I did after dropping our bags? Sprint over to June Bakery before the tarts sold out. If you’ve read my first June Bakery […]
For Mother’s Day lunch this year, I gave Mum two options: Good Bites or Galangal in Bishan. She picked the latter without hesitation. No surprise there—my folks have always been Thai food enthusiasts. Both restaurants boast eyebrow-raising 4.9-star Google ratings, which had me genuinely curious. Were those reviews legit? Only one way to find out. […]
We’re back at Pan Pacific Singapore, and yes, I really meant it when I said we’d return. If you’ve read my previous Pan Pacific Singapore review, you’ll know this hotel stole my heart on our first stay. So when Hubby signed up for the T100 triathlon, booking another two-night staycation here was a no-brainer. This […]
After a hearty lunch at Burgsy’s, we took a short stroll over to Shambles York—our last stop before bidding this gorgeous medieval city goodbye. And honestly? You can’t leave York without setting foot on this street. It’s the most famous and historic lane in the city centre, and within minutes of arriving, I understood exactly […]
After two solid hours wandering around York Castle Museum, our stomachs were grumbling. Hubby was craving a burger, so a quick Google search led us to Burgsy’s, just a five-minute stroll away. We rocked up around 1pm to a packed house but somehow nabbed the last free table. Lucky us. The Vibe at Burgsy’s The […]
Anyone who has helped a friend plan a Singapore wedding in the last few years has seen the numbers. A mid-range banquet at a hotel ballroom now starts around SGD $1,200 per table for a Saturday evening, with most couples landing somewhere between $40,000 and $90,000 once décor, photography, attire, and return gifts are added […]
