[with family] Birthday Celebration 2023

Image
My birthday fell on the third day of CNY and also a public holiday, so therefore it was a 'gai-gai' day for me! We had an afternoon tea at The Courtyard, The Fullerton Hotel for my birthday celebration. We spent quality time over our afternoon tea by sharing with each other on our travel plans to Japan in conjunction to celebrate our wedding anniversary.  They have a wide selection of tea by TWG and coffee by Bacha. Check out the quaint miniature confectionaries that had a CNY theme, and they certainly got my attention!! No high tea set or buffet is ever complete without scones! They always nail it well, and their scones are so delicious and perfect. They are warm and fluffy, and these golden pastries come with a crispy , glazed top layer. Each bite of the buttery scone melted nicely in my mouth. They are truly the ultimate teatime treat. Thanks for the kind arrangement by The Fullerton Hotel, as they prepared a birthday cake for me! I took some photos before leaving the ho...

Delicious Salmon from Norwegian Salmon ATM + Stay Safe with Sparks

Image
Salmon lovers can now get their fish from the Norwegian Salmon ATM found at several locations around the island. The process is entirely cashless, and the machines either accept payment by credit card or Virtual Loyalty Card via the Monyx app .   I picked up a pack of Norwegian Premium Smoked Salmon and Premium Sashimi-grade Salmon. They are frozen and kept fresh without any re-packing locally so you can eat them conveniently and directly without worrying about their quality. It may sound a bit edgy, but the frozen ATM salmon really does taste good!   The vending machines operate at -20 deg C and are currently selling at the discounted price of $5.90. The machines offer ease and convenience by operating cashless 24/7, and therefore you can consider adding more Salmon to your Lo Hei session this upcoming Chinese New Year!   Check out Norwegian Salmon ATM - Vending Machines, as they have over 100 locations island-wide and there might be one near you!

We celebrated our 12th anniversary over a meal at TungLok Seafood . Baby booked a table for us for this occasion, and it is l ocated at level 11 of Orchard Central . We love seafood, so we had a blast with the Chili Crabs, Shark's Fin with Fish Maw Soup and Broccoli & Scallops with XO Sauce ! We ended our dinner with some desserts!  We spent quality time together and I enjoyed with moment with him. Thanks for the unconditional love you have given me for the past 144 months. After a 5 months hiatus, I finally revisited  Hokkaido Ya ,  VivoCity on a Saturday afternoon. It tasted still as good as before!   We had our lunch there, and we did some shopping in the mall. To our horror/surprise, we discovered that some retail shops had closed down. It was a pretty sad t o see many shops being affected due to the COVID19 pandemic. Do remember to support local businesses! Together, we can make the difference! It is always nice to dine out after a day of WFH. I ha...
