[café hopping] Flipper’s at Ngee Ann City + Dinner at Xing Hua Restaurant

I started to take days off from work in order to clear my annual leave this year. I met up with R, S and E to have our girls’ afternoon day out. We went for an afternoon tea at Flipper’s which is located at Ngee Ann City.



Upon reaching the premises, we were greeted by bright yellow neon signs. The eatery place was pretty spacious as it was decked out in yellow, grey and wood furnishings.



Flipper’s offers signature soufflé pancakes in sweet and savory options. All the pancakes at Flipper’s are crafted with fine ingredients.



No Japanese café visit is complete without Matcha (green tea) desserts, so I ordered the Kiseki Pancake Matcha. The pancakes are served with a parade of toppings: azuki bean paste, Matcha whipped cream, fresh cream, and topped with Matcha powders.

 

The texture and flavor of the soufflé pancakes are light, which felt like a chiffon cloud! There is a hint of earthy bitterness that makes the Matcha so distinct. 



Chocolate fans can opt for the Kiseki Pancake Hazelnut Chocolate instead.



The damage was about SGD32-ish. After 2 hours+ of non-stop chatting, we left the eatery place, and proceeded to Daiso Ion to get some gift bags for our Christmas gift exchange preparation.



Both Baby and I revisited Xing Hua Restaurant which located at Suntec City. As usual, we ordered Xing Hwa Lu Mian, and it tasted extremely delicious!



The Sweet and Sour Pork with Lychee was da bomb! It is always on our top ‘MUST-ORDER’ list!



The Prawn Roll tasted pretty decent! It was a pleasant meal on the whole, and the damage was only SGD50-ish.



Lastly, Baby invited his colleagues - A & C over to our place for an early Christmas lunch gathering. We did a simple gift exchange over the meal. We were glad that they enjoyed the simple meal that Baby had specially prepared for them! Thanks for coming and thanks A for her lovely house-warming gift!



I end my post with my Christmas gift which I received from Boss D, thanks ya!

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.
