Like many foodies out there, the husband and I sometimes face what’s commonly known as a ‘first world problem’ because we always don’t know what to eat even though there is a huge hawker centre in our neighbourhood and several coffee shops too. To me, I guess it’s a happy problem because it spurs me on […]
I’ve been looking for gold again on Qoo10 and found another great ticket deal for the S.E.A. Aquarium. Ended up paying only S$24+ for 2 (admission-after-2pm) tickets that included admission to The Maritime Experiential Museum and Typhoon Theatre as well. That was a whopping 40% off the published rates! 😉 These tickets had at least […]
I always chuckle when I think of roti john because it reminds me of the first time the husband and I played Taboo (Singapore edition). He hadn’t eaten roti john before and he didn’t know everything about Singaporean cuisine since he only moved to Singapore from the UK not long then but he managed to […]
I love figs but the ones we get here in Singapore are usually the dried ones which I would normally add into my breakfast oats or just have them with assorted nuts for a healthy snack. When I saw beautiful fresh figs at the supermarket (uncommon so buy if you see them!), I just had […]
Ever since I visited Spizza @ Club Street five years ago, it has been my favourite pizzeria to go. I totally heart their thin-crusted wood-fired pizzas that are rustic, fresh and comforting. When I knew that Spizza had opened a new outlet at Capitol Piazza, I just had to plan a pizza date with my […]
Since my last visit to Ocean Curry Fish Head for its Nyonya-style fish head curry, I had been missing that sour and spicy gravy that was deliciously moreish. Do you know Nyonya-style fish curry is made from assam or tamarind (that’s why it’s tangy) and that there is no addition of coconut milk? It’s what […]
Last Sunday, fellow bloggers and I were invited to a cooking workshop conducted by Chef Ronald Li, head chef of Salt Tapas and Bar, following the launch of their new brunch menu the day before. Chef Ronald did a demo of these two dishes (one savoury and one sweet) from the new brunch menu. Cigar […]
Happy Birthday, Tools of The Trade (ToTT Store)! I was invited to ToTT’s first-ever Carnival Day on Saturday to celebrate its 5th birthday. For those who haven’t been to ToTT, check out my earlier blog post, ToTT Store @ Dunearn Road – A One Stop Shop for Kitchen Supplies. It’s my favourite store to go for […]
I had actually stopped buying stuffs on Qoo10 for a long time because it was just too easy to get hooked onto online shopping. I would tend to overspend and end up buying things that I didn’t really need. Having insufficient space at home to store my white elephants didn’t help and I had to […]
