Krispy Kreme will open at Tangs
Just read about this on my iphone through the Straits Times. Finally. Have been waiting for ages and since then lost my craving for donuts. Still need to wait till mid October though. The last time I had Krispy Kreme … Continue reading
Tsuru-koshi at IMM
This is so great. I don’t have to queue for this at the Takashimaya basement any more. A great Japanese food option at IMM and I love the mini udon option for S$4.
Another Visit to Jones The Grocer at ION
This was my third visit to this outlet of Jones the Grocer and I love the laid back vibe. It’s at the 4th level next to the bookstore and it never gets too crowded here. Again I tried something I’ve … Continue reading

The Providore at Mandarin Gallery
It’s always fun to try out brand new places and especially when you have great company. I must say firstly that this place reminds me of Jones the Grocer. It was very pleasant to sit here and chat. The decor … Continue reading

Samy’s Curry at Dempsey: Revamped
It was nice to see the old style colourful flags up for National Day I presume. B commented that these were the kinds of flags they used to decorate our primary schools in the past. The curry at Dempsey is … Continue reading

Back to Little Japan: Liang Court
It’s always a treat to come here – explore the supermarket where there is always some new product to tempt me, new titles at Kinokuniya to entice and the best affordable Japanese cuisine in Singapore. I was so glad to … Continue reading

New Love for Pasarbella
What an absolute treat it was to visit Pasarbella, the upscale farmer’s market at Turf City (now called Grandstand), at an off peak hour. So peaceful and serene, I yearn to return. An extreme contrast to my very first visit … Continue reading

A Day at Vivo: What’s New
Surprised to see H&M open where the National Geographic store used to be. I quite like the kiddie clothes here. Cute hair and phone assessories too – cute pink walrus iphone cover. And I do like how mustard and navy … Continue reading

At Plaza Singapura Again: thoughts about queues
Talking about pretty designs, I’m loving the new white Starbucks mugs with the embossed logo and wonder how much they cost. Finally got a seat at the Starbucks outlet at Plaza Singapura’s new wing. We came here to try the … Continue reading

New: Starbucks at Hougang Mall
Starbucks lattes are getting more and more dilute but I’m still excited to see one soon to open at Hougang Mall. At least I can get my coffee fix the next time I’m here. There were no other options before.
New at Suntec City: Again While Bored and Hiding from the Haze
The kids clothes are cute at both these places but a lot more affordable at H&M. For adult clothes I much prefer Gap for the styling. The H&M clothing seems flimsy but much cheaper I guess? This place is still … Continue reading
New at Novena Square: Sophie, French Bakery
I like the name Sophie and the concept looks interesting, but I tend to prefer sit down cafes. I wonder if their other outlets have more room for tables but from this blogger’s post about the Wisma outlet, it doesn’t … Continue reading

Jem: The Upscale New Mall at Jurong East (& My Directory Picks)
We were super kiasu, I’m embarrassed to say, and checked out the newest mall jem even though most of it is just a replica of malls in Orchard Road, like Centrepoint. And nope, no queuing for us as we didn’t … Continue reading

Eager to Try: Jamie’s Kitchen & Madam Kwan’s at Vivo
Took these photos some time ago, before I fell ill. Wonder if Jamie Oliver’s restaurant has opened since then. I also wonder if there are still queues at Madam Kwan’s (probably). Considering that it’s perpetual summer, here I chuckled over … Continue reading

New Places in Singapore
3 new places in Singapore that I chanced upon recently. Hope to explore more of the new, instead of revisiting the same old places like we usually do.
New Mall: Alexandra Retail Centre (ARC) & My Pick of the Directory
5 Reasons Why I Would Return to ARC: 1. Relatively Empty (don’t have to squeeze with other folks when you dine) 2. Free Parking on weekends and on Weekdays if you spend $30 (no need to rush off and with … Continue reading

Pasarbella
Checked out Pasarbella at Turf City (now called The Grand Stand) which is turning out to be the place for dining rather than just used cars. The only thing local about it is the name pasar (which means market in … Continue reading

Haven’t Tried Laduree Yet as the Queue was Closed (& A Tea Salon Might Come After All)
We were dismayed that there was no dining in concept, just take away. That totally zaps the fun out of it. (5 May: just learnt that Laduree will open a tea room perhaps in a year or two but I … Continue reading
