[FOOD REVIEW] Xian Mei Yong Tau Foo

Image
Normally, in Singapore, Yong Tau Foo is ordered as a soup or dry version. However, due to the innovative and creative ideas from the owner of Xian Mei Yong Tau Foo , she has come up with Curry Laksa and Ma-La versions! Apart from the traditional Yong Tau Foo, Xian Mei Yong Tau Foo also offers the Hakka version too! Each tofu cube, egg-plants and bitter gourd are deep fried nicely, and stuffed with delicious minced pork. I enjoyed eating the homemade Hakka Meatballs the best, as I love the crispy exterior and the delicious taste!   The 5-pcs Yong Tau Foo + Noodles/ Rice (SGD3.60) is a pretty reasonable price. What I loved best was the  5-pcs Yong Tau Foo with Chee Cheong fun which costs only SGD3.80 . It can be served in either curry gravy or paired with homemade chilli and sweet sauce. It is definitely a genuine traditional chee cheong fun recipe!  Each ingredient is handmade from scratch every morning before the stall opens for business. ...

[random] Control-T Cleansing Foam + DrGL + Latulle Cafe + Osaka Ohsho

Image
Recently, I brought Baby to Osaka Ohsho which is located at Raffles City Shopping Centre for our after-work dinner. I introduced him to my favorite Scallop Okowa Rice ! We also shared a portion of Fried Softshell Crab . In my honest opinion, Osaka Ohsho serves the best Gyoza in town! Do not miss out on their delicious Gyoza, as each piece tasted delightful. I think I will probably head down there for another meal again soon! Recently, I picked up 2 set of Necklaces from The Stage Walk's website, and the delivery was prompt! The damage for each set was SGD9.90, and they looked great as an accompanying accesory to my everyday outfits!   My lovely Mommy got me a pair of earrings, and they looked lovely. Thanks for the gift, Mom!   I think I am overly crazy about earrings. I picked up about 20 pairs of earrings for myself, and these excluded the ones which were meant to be gifts for my friends and colleagues dur...

[product review] Back to basic with Althea’s Bare Essentials

Image
I first started my collaboration with Althea Korea back in 2015, and during this journey, I've watched the brand grow from a one-stop online hub for Korean beauty products, to them now launching their very own products!   Now, Althea Korea is no longer just a online shopping website that offers Korean beauty fixes! They launched their very first own beauty product last year, the Althea Petal Velvet Powder.   After the successful launch of Althea's own beauty product, they are back again this year and have made a breakthrough by launching their own 'Bare Essentials' skincare range! These consist of 3 main key products which are normally used in one's daily skincare regime - Contour Cleanser, Prime Water, Fixer Cream.   The newly launched Althea’s Bare Essentials range embraces a minimalist concept, as the range focuses on utmost skincare fundamentals, as well as cutting out on complicated steps in one's daily skincare regime. These special ...

[staycation] The Fullerton Bay Hotel - Bay View

Image
I was extremely glad to be back at The Fullerton Bay Hotel to enjoy a one night stay at a Bay view room! Thanks so much to the hotel for this complimentary stay!   Upon entering the room, we were amazed by the spacious and beautiful room which had a better view as compared to our previous room during our wedding solemnization day. The Wi-Fi in the room was running TREMENDOUSLY FAST, and I enjoyed my dramas online without having any issues.  The hotel provided TWG tea bags for their staying guests in the room, which were replenished daily! Naturally, we helped ourselves to the tea, and this went great with the Matcha Chocolate Wafers  from  Royce that was given to me as a gift from my ex-colleague, Lynn!   I went over to the bathroom, and all toiletries they offered from Bottega Veneta. They were replenished daily as well! Apart from the toiletries, we also felt pampered by the other h...
