CNY dinner @ Paradise Inn

Lunar New Year falls on the eve of my birthday this year, which means, it will be a double celebration for me... Hope 2012 will be an awesome year for every one of you, as the dragon has always been an auspicious Chinese zodiac among the chinese's belief...


I wore a red dress on the first day of Chinese New Year... Gong Xi Fa Cai

After visiting my relatives in Tampines, we made our way to my brother - Henry's place at Simei for some relaxing moments.

Upon entering his place, I was greeted by a framed up Buddha Sculpture... I was amazed by this magnificent and fine artwork, as per my brother, it costs him SGD200-ish...

Taken from 2 angles (left & right)... Do you guys notice any difference between the two photos of the sculpture?


This is a 3D framed up sculpture... Do take a look again, you will notice that which ever direction or angle, you look at the sculpture, the buddha's face will be still facing at you...


After slacking at his place by playing cards, it was time for dinner... We went to Paradise Inn at Eastpoint for our dinner, which was just walking distance from his place.

Traditional concept with oriental ambience, great for Chinese fare soup lovers as they serve pretty classics double-boiled soups...

Double Boiled Spare Ribs with Winter Melon... The broth was clear and the spare ribs was pretty soft too.

It was a pretty much soupy dish, all of us love the poached Chinese spinach with the combination of egg, salted egg and century egg...

Hotplate Tofu - A unique way of cooking, the tofu is very soft inside and semi crispy at the outside, the gravy makes it perfect.
Prawn Balls with Salted Egg - This is the best item, the taste of salted egg was over-whelming and I enjoyed it very much... Highly recommended!!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
We enjoyed the dinner as a whole... Simply indulge ourselves in the simple yet authentic affordable food. I personally feel that this eatery place is an ideal choice for casual meals among friends and family. I love this family bonding dinner and the damage was SGD106... I want more lunchies or dinners in the future (:

Korea's No. 1 beauty brand, KUNDAL shower/hair products are now available in Singapore, and I am honored to try out their full series of shampoo, treatment, body wash and hair serum which includes a special gift from them - Bath Bombs! KUNDAL o ffers natural hair/bodycare products that have the perfect blend of plant extracts. Their products are comfortably referred to as green products due to their biodegradable and non-toxic components. What I love about the  KUNDAL HONEY & MACADAMIA  range is  that they use honey and macadamia extracts as their main ingredients. They are also infused with a specific scent - such as Pink Grapefruit, White Musk or Cherry Blossom, or the most popular floral scent, Baby Powder.

Thanks for introducing COCOnCO from Korea which has helped me to achieve pleasant results from my beauty regime.   COCOnCO First Essence Toner  is a fermented facial essence, and it soothes wrinkles, tones, moisturizes and nourishes the skin, enhances blood circulation and metabolic processes at the cellular level, evens out complexion, brightens the skin, reduces the secretion of sebaceous glands and fights rashes. If you have pale, tired skin with sagging and fine lines, these can be miraculously transformed with regular use of the essence! It is suggested to be used as the first step in daily skin care. Apply it to cleansed skin first before applying the lotion, emulsion/serum and cream.  It is recommended for the product to be used twice a day - Once in the morning, and once in the evening.

The common scalp problems can cause a lot of irritation, but also hair loss. I was in complete shock at the state of my nightmarish infected scalp!

She also explained that my scalp was pretty oily, and my scal
