I enjoyed the atmosphere at the Yebber Fashion Fusion Bazaar too! It's really a fashion fusion I must say. With all sorts of little items for ladies, you'll feel so spoilt for choice!
The idea of having the bazaar at a cafe gave it a very cosy feeling, plus the fact that the stall vendors there were mostly pretty friendly, it made my shopping experience better than ever.
Although there isn't a exactly a fitting room to try clothes or hundreds of shops to visit, I would say that a bazaar-shopping experience is definitely different from the experience at a shopping mall, because the environment is much better. People are more friendly and all.
Also, with all items displayed out, it makes shopping easy and quick! Just one glance and you can see everything, you really don't have to waste much time. Quick shopping, immediate satisfaction!
You see it around, you think it's good. I think it's bad. I'll see it around, but I'll never go there again.
I was in the area twice and had to find somewhere to sit for a few hours. I thought the place looked good, and so I decided I'll sit there for the few hours and get a drink too. Sounds perfect. But it sure was disappointing.
I got myself a Iced Chocolate. It was actually hot chocolate with ice. The taste was normal.. like any hot chocolate. But the drink was very powder-y. And it didn't look any professional either, when the waiter came with my drink (after quite awhile) with the foam overflowing.
I was hungry, so I looked for something to eat. I thought the Mango Danish looked nice (it looked like a sunny-side up egg actually) and it was one of the cheaper pastries there going at $2 (their sandwich is 6 bucks!). But I was utterly disappointed to know that the mango thing in the middle wasn't exactly fresh mango. Rather, it tasted like cheap mango ice cream that you get from NTUC in tubs.
I know the place was bad; I had no choice but sat there again. I decided this time I'll get something with a bit of coffee. After all they are supposed to have good coffee right. So I got a Mocha Spin (apparently it's just ice-blended mocha). I don't know about you, but I couldn't quite believe that I paid, more than a mocha ice blend at coffee bean, for a cup of ice blended mocha that had "sand" in it. What I mean by "sand" is actually the coffee beans! It's weird and I really can't believe it, but why do you blend coffee beans?! It really ruined my whole drink. You just feel like spitting out every sand-bit with every mouth you take.
Horrible.. Really. Maybe their hot coffee drinks are good, but for me, I definitely won't be there again.
I went to Bugis Junction not too long ago and I noticed that the food court was gone! Well ok, the one at the basement at least.
The foodcourt was shifted up to the 2nd or 3rd level, taking over where The Edge used to be if I'm not wrong. So now there's this whole corner that's solely for the foodcourt. I thought the new interior of the foodcourt was quite nice. It gave it abit more class; a level above the normal foodcourts you see around. With the cushioned chairs it actually give me a slightly oriental feel, somehow. =x
However, the bad thing about the place was that there were too few seats. With the new tables and all, it took up even more space than usual. There was a lack of tables and even walking space.
On the other hand, the foodcourt now seems to have many more stalls! I even saw pepper lunch and such! It was quite interesting because, well you don't usually see a fastfood outlet in a foodcourt do you.
The overall feeling was that the quality of food was better and there was a larger variety of food. Worth a try at least(:
In the past, I never really bothered about the smell or the quality of the seats in cinemas. But after reading what people have to say, I subconsciously begin to notice these things. Lately, I've been to 2 cinemas and it did give me some grounds for comparison. I realized that actually the cinema at Century Square is not bad a place after all!
I like the place because firstly, they don't have any weird smells around. Instead, they had this slightly sweet smell lingering in the air! I don't know what was that, but it's better than something stinky right. (;
Secondly, this place may not be brand new but their seats are a fair distance apart so it gives some reasonable leg space. Only that I think if people were to be through, there'll be a slight problem, unlike GV Marina. It has big leg space!
Thirdly, I like the seats! I think it's one of the more comfortable ones I've been to (other than Suntec City, where I sat on the couches! Haha). The seats curve in a certain angle, somehow it suits your back shape better. It makes it comfortable for seating for a long time and doesn't give backaches (for me at least =x), as compared to when I was at GV Marina Square. But I think a comfortable seat is more important than anything else!
Well, it's not too bad a place I guess. It's not that packed most of the time I think, as more people seem to go to tampines mall just beside. I think I'll probably go there more, now that I find a more comfortable place (:
Coffee Bean is everywhere. The thing is, being a franchise, the standard differs everywhere. This outlet at Parkway Parade is a small one hidden in the basement. Nonetheless, it doesn't stop people from coming here, for whatsoever reasons.
I like Coffee Bean because it's just a great place to catch up with friends over a cuppa. It seems to spell "this is a place to catch up".
I like their cakes. Today, I just realized they have a new cake! Cheesecake with Toblerone. It looks good but I've yet to try. But I'd say their Blueberry Delight is good! But that you must eat it there, unless you put it in your fridge immediately after bringing it home. Also, I think that this place makes nicer Chocolate ice blend. It's more tasty, unlike quite a lot of places that's either too sweet or diluted =s
Basically, I kind of like the ambience (not that it's very great) that you get from the place and I like the cakes and drinks you can get from this place.
Great place to go just to sit and relax I'd say! Plus, there's Gramophone just opposite this Coffee Bean, free music! (:
