[random-ness] Jack's Place + Mouth Restaurant + Craftholic

Baby brought me and Auntie Vi for an early Christmas dinner at Jack's Place which is located at Civic Centre.
 
 
We kicked off with Calamari Rings and Escargots as our starters! The damage was about SGD100-ish, and thanks Baby for the wonderful meal! (Actually, thanks NS50 for the vouchers haha!)

 
I have been a lover of Craftholic since 2013, and I proudly own an extra large 'Rock-Star Craft Rab, 2 medium Plushes that consist of 2012's Christmas Limited Edition Red Craft Rab & Classic Craft Sloth, a Sakura Craft Rab Cushion, a Classic Craft Sloth iPhone6 cover, and lastly, a Hawaii Craft Rab pouch!

Recently, I picked up 2 more items to add on to my Craftholic collection from the newly-opened store on VivoCity. 



 
I love both the Pierrot Craft Multi Case and Smile Craft Card Pouch. 




 
This year, Christmas Eve fell on a Sunday, and Auntie Vi & RKM maintained their daily Sunday Brunch by having Dim Sum! This time, we went to the Mouth Restaurant at Chinatown.
 
Mouth Restaurant began as a teahouse, which serves quintessential dim sum to the Cantonese Community in Singapore since the 80's, and now it has become a prominent Chinese Restaurant that offers modern Cantonese cuisine at affordable prices!
 
Upon entering the premises, we were greeted by a typical Hong Kong old school dim sum teahouse but upon closer look, we notice that the eatery place is designed with modern wallpapers and ceiling lamps. 

 
We were lucky to get a table without any reservations made in advance on a Sunday late morning. Some reviews online recommended the Salted Egg Custard Bun as a definite choice, so we decided to give that a try. It was a good choice as the buns were unlike the typical steamed buns as they make it akin to the HK-styled Bo Lo Buns which made the overall taste better!


 
My personal recommendations are the Steamed Spare Ribs with Garlic & Chili, Phoenix Claw, Shrimp Beancurd Roll, Siew Mai and Pan Fried Carrot Cake.
 
We had a delightful meal, and the damage was about SGD118-ish. While this may seem steep, I must add that we also ordered half a Peking Duck! Thanks Auntie Vi for the Christmas Eve brunch treat!
 


 
Lastly, thanks Skin Inc for the Facial in Flash Trial kit to me to embark my beautiful journey.

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. The scent still lingering in the bathroom for hours and it smells pleasant as well as not being over-powering. I love how my hair feels smooth after using each of the products. I tried the White Musk shampoo and Cherry Blossom treatment, and I was

[product review] Celladix Sebum Rebalancing RX Ampoule + COCOnCO Skincare Line

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. After using the COCOnCO First Essence , I did find it more hydrating and my skin is now less sensitive. My favorite way to use this is just as an essence after applying my toner, in order to ad

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
