[treatment review] Accent FACESLIM at ClearSK Medi- Aesthetics

Image
I always envy ladies who have a defined jaw-line and a V-shape face, as these attributes and enhance facial features makes one look younger. For me, I have baby fats and a wide jaw-line. In short, this gives me a round chubby face.      I was glad to be given a chance to try out ClearSK Medi- Aesthetics' Signature V Face Shaper Treatment , Accent FACESLIM . It is a non-invasion treatment that directs Ultrasound Waves to reach deep into muscle layer (as deep as 4.5mm) to strengthen and stimulate collagen. It may sound scary, but do not worry, as the treatment is safe and has no downtime. The therapist told me that I can achieve significant results in just one session, and the effects can last up to 3 weeks The first step was to cleanse my face, and once it was fully cleansed, a thick layer of cooling gel was applied to enable the ultrasound waves to penetrate evenly into my skin. The device used was safe and it worked its way gently aro...

[food review] Taipei Seoul Café

Image
I was invited by a friend of mine, Jacky, for a food tasting at Taipei Seoul Café,  which is located at Jalan Leban. It is a very new joint which only opened in July.   Upon reaching the café, it gave me a surreal feeling. I love the 'pastel blue' décor of the place, as it has a pretty dreamy vibe to it. The décor was pretty simple. The staffs are very helpful and efficient in their services, and the friendly lady boss, Maggie, who is a Taiwanese, shared with us on her unique food creations.      We kicked off the food tasting session with Taiwanese street snacks, Sour Plum Sweet Potato (SGD3.50) and Taiwanese Popcorn Chicken (SGD6.50) . These are pretty common Taiwanese food-fare items that are served in any Taiwanese eatery places, but I must say that I really loved the Sour Plum Sweet Potato that was served at the Taipei Seoul Café! I've had this dish before at other Taiwanese food joints, but this one here tasted...

[WEEKEND] Sunday brunch at House of Roasted Duck

Image
Sunday Brunch is a great meal to indulge in with family, friends, and loved ones! Therefore, Baby took me on an impromptu visit to an eatery place located at Sultan Plaza for a Sunday Brunch!     The 'House of Roasted Duck' , is headed by a Hong Kong Chef who was formally the chief 'Roast Specialist' at the Excelsior Hotel, Hong Kong , and he has opened it in Singapore!     This eatery place offers a wide selection of Hong Kong delicacies such as congee, noodles and Cantonese dim sum/side snacks.   Baby ordered the Shrimp Dumpling Noodle (soup version). The noodles were springy and the soup was flavorful too.   I prefer the BBQ Pork to their Signature Roasted Duck as the BBQ Pork was not only juicy and tender, but it tasted awesome! Being a pork lover, I couldn't help having additional servings of it! Both Baby and I enjoyed the Deep Fried Bean Curd Roll with Prawn , as we couldn'...
