Back at one of my favourite dessert places. ? Japanese patisserie chain Henri Charpentier used to be located at Dempsey and it boasted a pretty and atas outfit that really made us feel like tai-tais when dining in. Now that the Dempsey restaurant is closed, we can still head to their two outlets at Tanjong […]
My love for choux bun began in UK. ? My then-boyfriend (now husband) thought I was too easily satisfied because it was just a simple, unpretentious choux bun from a supermarket chain that only cost £1! So whenever I visited the UK, he would buy a few boxes of the choux buns before picking me up […]
If you are staying near the Pratunam Market area and are thinking of heading to Siam Paragon and the nearby malls for some shopping and eating, check out my earlier post on How to get from Pratunam to Siam Paragon in which I’ve shared this alternative shortcut route without having to go through the skywalk. […]
I had come across Cat and the Fiddle on Instagram for a long time and I thought I would order their Fickle Feline cheesecake this time just to surprise the husband as he was craving for cheesecake. For those of you who haven’t heard of Cat and the Fiddle, well, it is an online cheesecake […]
Used to patronise the Udders outlet at Thomson Road almost every week when I was working in the vicinity. And now whenever I come to United Square, I would still stop by Udders for an ice cream treat or specifically, Mao Shan Wang Durian ice cream – which is still the best durian ice cream […]
After a satisfying dinner at Din Tai Fung, Hubby suggested that we stopped by Caffe Bene for a bingsu (Korean shaved ice dessert) because it deserved a ‘second chance’, lol. Well, he said that because ever since we had a bingsu at Cafe Insadong (it had ceased operation on 31st December 2016), we totally shunned […]
I was never a huge chendol fan previously until I tried what I thought was the best-chendol-ever at Penang Road Famous Teochew Chendul in Georgetown, Penang last year. The one that I went to was a roadside cart in an alleyway which was also their first and original outlet. Today, it has expanded its business […]
Came across Vincom Mega Mall Royal City while reading the news so we decided to come here on our second last day to check this place out. VMMRC is about 7km southwest of the Old Quarter. The taxi ride (booked via GrabTaxi) from our hotel to here cost 80,000 VND (SGD5). Vincom Mega Mall Royal […]
Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone! Hope you all have something planned for the day and are looking forward to spending a good time with your loved ones. 😉 We were in the mood for sweet treats after we had some incredible crème caramel at Kem Caramen Duong Hoa on Hang Than Street and continued our search […]
Located on the same street as Bun Cha 34 is Kem Caramen Duong Hoa that has three outlets in Hanoi, located on 29 Hang Than Street, 33 Nguyen Khac Nhu Street and 101 C5 Tran Tu Binh Street. This dessert house is said to be one of the best places for crème caramel in town. […]
While on our way to visit the Hanoi Opera House, we stopped by the iconic Trang Tien Plaza which is Hanoi’s first high-end luxury shopping mall. It is located across the road from the southern end of Hoan Kiem Lake in the Old Quarter. Expect to find familiar brands here such as Cartier, Dior, Louis […]
Two weeks ago, I accompanied W to Tan Tock Seng Hospital and I came across this pretty-looking Green Tea Puff (S$2.90 each) while buying snacks at Polar Puffs & Cakes. Had to buy two home to try. 🙂 When I cut into the puff, I was really delighted to see how thin the choux pastry […]
Those of you living in the West may have already stumbled upon Hokkaido Baked Cheese Tart at Jurong Point. However, do not mistake this for BAKE Cheese Tart at ION Orchard and Westgate which is the real deal from Hokkaido, Japan whereas Hokkaido Baked Cheese Tart is by Malaysian cafe chain, Secret Recipe. I first […]
Never expected myself to be crazy (ok, not that bad, haha) about Taiwanese desserts in Singapore as I thought they were just overpriced, mediocre stuffs that were probably not worth the sugar and calories, haha. However, since I tried my very first bowl of ai-yu jelly from Nine Fresh, a Singapore local chain for Taiwanese […]
Whenever I’m near Paya Lebar, I will always head to Haig Road Market & Food Centre for putu piring but now I don’t have to do that anymore because my favourite stall, Traditional Haig Road Putu Piring, has opened an outlet near where I live. Woohoo! 🙂 Two days again, I shared about this pretty […]
From Toh Soon Cafe, we walked for about 5 minutes along Jalan Penang to Lebuh Keng Kwee (just 4 streets away) for our final food stop which was this chendol pushcart with an incredibly long queue. This auntie’s speed of whipping up bowls and bowls of chendol (RM2.50 per bowl) and ice kacang was just […]
