I love weekends! Baby and I went over to 313@Somerset lunch. We settled at Sushi Plus .  After lunch, Baby sent me to meet up with both Chewyjas and her daughter, Rena at Gardens by the Bay to watch the South-east Asian debut of Pooh’s Grand Friendship Party. It is a 10-minute song-and-dance parade. The spectacle featured whimsical inflatables of Pooh and his best friends that were towering up to 7m, supported by more than 25 performers. No celebration is complete without dessert, and the parade culminated in a delightful surprise: a giant, inflatable three-tiered cake. After that, we headed over to Shaw House for our food tasting at Penang Jiak . It offers authentic Penang dishes at affordable prices.  We tried the Penang Prawn Noodles, Penang Char Kway Teow , and Signature Assam Laksa .  I had the Char Kway Teow , and it was a truly enticing flavor!  I’m glad that Penang Jiak brings the true flavour of Penang dishes to customers without having to leaving our ho...

[food review] 新美香卤面 Xin Mei Xiang Lor Mee + Yellow Cab Pizza Co.

Image
I am a huge fan of  新美香卤面  Xin Mei Xiang Lor Mee , and on a random weekend, I was at the Tampines area, hence I visited the Tampines branch!  新美香卤面  Xin Mei Xiang Lor Mee 's  popularity rose tremendously with locals over the years, and they also gained significant recognition by many media platforms. With their recent expansions, we were delighted to know that this nostalgic taste has becoming more accessible. Now, they have six outlets - Balestier, Clementi West, Holland Drive, Bishan, Tampines, and, of course, their flagship stall at Old Airport Road. 新美香卤面  Xin Mei Xiang Lor Mee   is known famously for long queues. Many patrons still patiently brave the long lines and queue, just to have a bowl of comforting traditional Lor Mee. Apart from the traditional/classic Lor Mee, they've also introduced some new creative variations, such as chicken cutlet, crispy fish and even scallops.  The  Double Fish Lor Mee  is a personal favorite of min...

[Food Review] iVegan + The Space Bistro

Image
I've decided that I want to eat clean and improve my diet to reduce health problem & issues as I grow older. Exercise is one of the good options to stay healthy, but eating clean does a great job too! Therefore, as one of the goals to be healthy, I decided to change my diet to a healthier one! iVegan has 2 outlets in Singapore. One is located at Thomson Plaza and the other one is located at i12 Katong . We visited the outlet at i12 Katong for a vegan lunch. This vegan eatery place holds a very strong philosophy to serve food that is all natural, plant-based, with no MSG and refined sugar added, and they only use olive oil and pansalt, a low sodium salt! It is not easy to find eateries in Singapore that serve good vegetarian or vegan food. Perhaps I am too picky when it comes to vegetarian food. First things first, I do not like mock (gluten) meat, which one can find easily at some vegetarian food stalls. I am not a fan of ‘impossible meat’ too. Luckily, iVegan fits into my c...
