[random] New food item launch in KFC / Genki Sushi / Kim's Family Korean Restaurant

Image
I've been working from the office on Fridays for a while now, and many of my friends are asking me on my thoughts! I have mixed feelings about it. In the office, the computer runs faster and the printer is available to me as a tool to print out reference materials/emails. Lastly, my bosses are always there to guide me should I require any assistance. However, this is not to say that working from home is not productive, as I think most of us must now adapt to this new reality. Working from home can be efficient too, as long as you have the correct mindset and professionalism! As usual, Baby came over to Suntec City to fetch me from my work, and we settled our dinner at Genki Sushi . We were so lucky that we were directed to our seats upon reaching the eatery. We ordered quite a few random sushi items and our orders 'rode' in on a mini Shinkansen (Bullet Train) all the way from the kitchen to the respective table by a special track. This is definitely faster than a conveyor

The Mid-Autumn festival is coming soon, and it will soon be time to have scrumptious mooncakes again! I do eat traditional mooncakes, but I prefer the snow skin ones. I will definitely keep my options open for more exciting and interesting mooncake flavors.  You are in luck, especially if you love to eat durians! Recently, I got introduced to   Chui Lau Heung , and their snowy mooncakes are authentic and very delicious! They also offer innovative flavors such as, D24 Durian Snowy Mooncakes and Mini MAO SHAN WONG Durian Snowy Mooncakes.  Chui Lau Heung Mooncakes are sold across the world, such as places like Hong Kong, Macau, Guangzhou, Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Jose, Seattle, Houston, Honolulu, New York, Chicago, Toronto, Calgary, Edmonton, Montreal, Vancouver, and now it is finally available in Singapore! Being an avid durian lover, it goes without saying that Durian Mooncakes are always the first choice on my list! I really love the Mini MAO SHAN WONG Durian Snowy Mooncakes ,

[random] Lunch at Monzen@Gardens

Image
  Monzen@Gardens is located at  myVillage , a heartland mall at Maju Avenue , and it is a fairly-new Japanese eatery which serves classics like   various Chirashi Dons and Japanese sides.   We started off our lunch with Gzoya and Corn Croquettes. I had their signature Bara-Chirashi Don, and the ingredients used were fresh. What I loved most was the sushi rice that had a strong vinegar taste, that was topped with Tamago and Tobiko.   It is a perfect place for any occasion/gathering, or or even a short meet-up with friends for drinks. (I love this - all day happy hour deal for SGD10/pint).   Recently, I went for 5D eyelash extensions and the whole session took 60 minutes to complete. It comes with a free touch up within 2 weeks. OM! I really love my end results! Thanks EL for the recommendation. Every year in July is our company's anniversary, but due to this pandemic, our company called off the outdoor celebration. Instead, they ordered a lunch Bent

[Northwestern USA trip] Day 5 in Seattle, WA - Kerry Park + Fremont Troll + Seattle Starbucks Reserve Roastery

Image
Another day in Seattle! Kerry Park is a small public park which overlooks Downtown Seattle . The park's view is considered to have one of the most iconic views of the city skyline, as it offers a great shot of the entire Seattle picturesque skyline. It was just a short drive from our apartment, and I must recommend Kerry Park as a worthy visit if you have some spare time for photos! A giant troll made of cement clutches an old VW car underneath an overpass in Seattle’s Fremont neighbourhood!  The Fremont Trol l is literally located under a bridge at the dead end of a street. We parked the car a little distance away from the bridge and walked through the neighbourhood to give the troll a visit! We went to the Fremont Brewing Company to get some beers! We spent about an hour at the premises. They offer free pretzels to go along with drinks! This place also allows you to bring your own food while enjoying their local be
