HÜBSCH JESS BABY

After 5 years of hiatus, I re-visited Antoinette which located Penhas Road , as I stay nearby to the Lavender area. The place looks so jaded as compared to my last visit, although it is still a great place for desserts. Baby and I shared the Japanese soufflé pancakes - Tres Berries , and share a pot of Chamomile tea . I really enjoyed the desserts in Antoinette and I will be back. I really hope that they can do some refurbished in their furniture. I still want to keep my memories fresh of the hay days of Antoinette. I re-visited Soi 47 Thai Food after a hiatus of 2 years. This eatery place is located at King George Road . We started off with the Thai Prawn Cake , and it tasted super yummy!  We also ordered a bowl of Tom Yum cream Soup with Seafood . The spiciness level just right for us and it is pretty authentic. The soup does come with a generous portion of seafood, which included fried fish and prawn. The total damage was about SGD35! ...

An easy day trip to another beautiful location from Hokkaido's capital city of Sapporo is Otaru. It is a port city with beautifully quaint streets and views of the Otaru Canal. Otaru is nice enough to spend a day, and we covered most of the highlights within a day. Prior to our departure, Baby and I purchased the 7-Day Hokkaido Shinkansen Rail passes from Changi Recommends, as there was a discounted rate for the passes. The two passes cost us around SGD570 after the discount. The pass covered the entire Hokkaido Prefecture. With the passes, we were allowed to travel on an unlimited number of rides to all areas on all the Hokkaido JR train service lines. These included all 'Special Rapid Train' services too! After having brekkie, we headed down to Sapporo JR Station to exchange our JR passes for the actual train passes. The travelling time from Sapporo to Otaru took us only 40 minutes. Yay to the famous Otaru Canal! Back in the heyd...
