Random happenings in December

Image
Christmas has been my favorite festive holiday since young, and I love shopping for gifts for my friends, colleagues and for my favorite person in life. Baby and I went to  Jewel Changi Airport  and I took photos against the beautiful Christmas decoration displays!  We chanced upon EVA Air's pop-up event, and we joined in the fun as they offered interactive experiences like a memory game, 360° photo booth, and stamp collection to win prizes, including flights to Taipei, Sony headphones, and exclusive EVA merchandise. After my last visit with Baby to Ume San 10 0, I fell in love with the food and vibes offered at the Speakeasy. I decided to introduce this food gem to my 2 closest friends. I revisited this eatery place with them on a random Thursday evening for a mini X'mas gathering cum Gifts Exchange dinner after our work. Japanese Vending Machines is the entrance of Ume San 100 , and it is located at an unlikely place, Fortune Centre . We met up one another where this...

Weekend outing at Marina Bay Sands

Image
I visited the  Marina Bay Sands over the weekend again, and I t ook more pictures against DIOR's  stunning and beautiful Christmas Tree. I can feel the that the festive season is here! Baby and I headed down to the latest immersive installation which is located at the  Event Plaza - Marina Bay Sands.  Ralph Lauren Fragrances  brought the epitome of New York glamour to the Garden City with  Ralph’s Club: From Singapore to New York.  The showcase was to also promote Ralph's Club Elixir perfume , and the brand ambassador was the Chinese celebrity, Xiao Zhan ! This pop up is an all-black setting with 5 interconnecting rooms that tell the story of the latest fragrance - Ralph’s Club Elixir .  We began with ‘The Elevator Room’ which transported us from Singapore to New York, in the heart of downtown Manhattan, complete with a panoramic backdrop of the city skyline. We had photo opportunities at the Centre Stage, along with a fragrance profiling ex...

[random] Eating out at Kanada-Ya + Changi Jewel

Image
Singaporeans love ramen, and lately there have been many new ramen restaurants spotted in Singapore.  Finally, I got the chance to try out Kanada-Ya which recently opened in November at Marina Square . Previously, when the flagship store was opened at Paya Lebar Quarter last December, the queue was horrendous. I was forced to give up and to seek another meal alternative in the mall instead! You can probably understand why I was elated when another new outlet opened so close to my workplace! Baby went for the  Basic Tonkotsu Mix Ramen , while I had the Basic Black Garlic Ramen , and they tasted equally delicious.  We also tried one side dish, the Crab Cream Croquette . It was marvellous! Not only was the batter  super crunchy, but it was also fluffy and light, without the any greasiness. This is a satisfactory meal. The ramen is good, and I will come back again. I paid SGD50 for two persons. A little treat for my Baby!  At Jiu Gong Ge hotpot ( 九 宫格火锅 ) , they ...
