If you are around Plaza Singapura and need a place to rest, chill, chat, have a drink, have a snack or food, go to the "hidden" cafe inside Made With Love, at level 3, next to OP.
They have lots of yummy food which I love! The photo attached is my latest fav - Spud with Sausages. This also comes with vegeterian diet version, which I saw Elaine eating it the other day I was there. Looks very yummy too! However, this yummy spud will only last for an hour or so and than you'll be hungry again. (This is what Malee, the cafe guy, will tell you too if you ask him.) Or if you can't take this or wants abit more of that, just let him know! He'll surely cook up something that will suit your unique taste! The cafe people never fails to perk one up with their food.
Another one that you can't miss is their Roast Chicken Ciabatta served with chips. This one will sure fill one hungry tummy and last for at least 4 hours or more. Healthy (beside the chips) and yummy!
There's also this very colorful decorated chocolate cake, Pari Pari or for some who call it the "Fairies Cupcake". I've yet tried it myself, but it sure looks sinfully delicious! When heated nicely, its one cake that chocolate lovers cannot miss!
If my review aren't enough to wet your appetite, ask Malee! (At table scraps of course!)

Honestly, I'm a mini fan of Kenny Rogers and I have no idea why.
Suntec is a really central area to go. Very accessible by MRT and bus and with plenty of shopping space I would say this is a good restaurant to seek.
The ambience is cosy. The seats are a little run-down upon inspection but the overall look's alright.
It's a self service thing but the servers are always on hand to help you with your trays. It can be really heavy at times.
It's mostly chicken but they also have some fish fillet. They have chicken fillet for those who can't be bothered to operate on those bones. There's also the Chicken Soup in a bread bowl thingy which is very filling and delicious!
I rarely order the chicken as I eat very little. But I love the sides. I prefer the rice, the vegetables and the mashed potatoes. Sometimes I can caught up with the cheese macaroni.
2 plates are generally enough for 3 people. So it's possible for 3 to eat below $20 which is very reasonable. Drinks come in a big cup but are non-refillable. I don't think you would want to get them refilled anyway.
Great place. :)

I'm sure many men and women have heard of Victoria's Secret before.
It's a US store which sells mainly lingerie. It's not available in any store in SG. For your info, if any shop sells it in SG, it's illegal and the shop may face legal action as VS does not allow any shop to sell its stuff in Asia.
That aside, its online store has a wide variety of lingerie and sleepwear. Not to mention it has many sexy tops and dresses for you to choose from. They also have a comprehensive size chart which you can have a good gauge of your size from. The cutting of the clothing is not very big so it's fine.
The staff are very helpful when you ask for assistance, whether through email or phone.
When it's sale time, the prices of the items can be so low that it's worth it even with the hefty shipping costs.
The whole thing would be a good experience if not for one incident. I had clicked on a top which should have costed $20, but in the shopping cart it sneakily appeared at $25. And no matter how I clicked it didn't change. For those not too careful they would have then paid an extra $5 for that item.

This is located at the Tampines Store along Tampines Ave 10. You can take a free shuttle there from Tampines/Bedok MRT station. Parking is free and plentiful. You can even park at Giant which is opposite Ikea.
It's very crowded during weekends and weekday mealtimes. There are quite a number of people even during weekday off-peak hours. So be prepared!
Some of the most popular food here is the Swedish Meatballs and the chicken wings as mentioned by the other reviewers. However the Meatballs are made of beef which I don't eat. The only one time I did have it... It was quite dry. I guess it was because it was near the bottom of the tray and had been there quite long already. But the cranberry sauce that came with it was tasty. I personally feel that the chicken wings are also a tad dry but much healthier than the ones you find at Hawker Centres. It's less oily but dry because of the same reason.
I usually take the Salmon and chips. I like the fries as they are the fat kind. The salmon is alright, just that the sauce can be a tad thick occasionally. The kids' burger meal is quite tasteless. The burger is just two dry buns sandwiching the meat. Without any sauce it's quite hard to swallow.
However i like the system there. The self service system so that you can "tailor" things the way you like them. I also clear my own cutlery although that is not too successful with Singaporeans.
It's usually $15 for a meal for two adults plus drinks. Of cos if you are an Ikea Member you get the free drinks thingy which is great.
Relatively good place to rest and relax before heading the the rest of Ikea. :)

I loveee going to Ikea ever since like 10 years ago when I moved to my current home at Sengkang. I was super excited when they opened at Tampines! (Just a 5 mins drive from my place!)
I go there pretty often nowadays just to grab a bite. I love their Fresh Water Shrimp. Cheap and fresh. And on Tuesdays or Wednesday, their Fish & Chips (sometimes with Sambal chilli) is my favourite too!
I know many recommended their Meatballs, but I've never tried it. Last time cause I don't eat beef, but now when I start eating beef, I can't eat pork. So never am I going to try their famous meatballs. (Maybe one day they will change to all beef or combine beef and chicken?)
Oh ya! Their chicken wings! How can I forget! Juicy and yummmmmy!! I know its unhealthy and fattening, but how can I resists??
No where to go, go Ikea Tampines! Best part is, parking is free!!

Chanced upon this tiny cosy cafe at the basement of Century Square when I was there with my mum last week. Since mum is currently on a healthy diet, we decided to give this organic cafe a try.
Can't remember the actual name of the dish but its grilled cod fillet with brown rice. (Not on the main menu. Its a $9.90 promotion menu or something.) But just look for it lah! Cause its super yummy! I'm not a fish person (that's why I ordered the spicy beef spaghetti which was also very good) but I enjoyed eating my mum's dish!
Another must try is their yogurt. They've many toppings to choose from, we had the mango one. Nice.
If I'm not wrong, they also have an outlet at Velocity.

Something different from the usual Swensen's outlet. Earle serves a finer menu and yet have their famous sundaes and fish and chips.
Went to Earle at Vivo almost everytime we were there for dinner. What we enjoyed most is the salad bar that comes with all main course order. Not alot of variety but enough to make you want to have more than just one serving.
If you're there with a friend, try their Cioppino. Yummy sauce and fresh crayfish. Sure to fill 2 hungry tummies. If you're not into sharing, and can't decide whether to take the chicken or the seafood, give Surf & Turf a try. Chicken breast meat, fresh prawn and fresh crayfish grilled to perfection! The thought of it now just make me want to have it now!
So if you're down at Vivo and don't know where to makan, try Earle Swensen's.

I returned today with a few yebbers for lunch. After reading their menu for 30mins (while waiting), I decided to try their lobster. There were 2 options, the grilled or the baked. When I saw my order, I was rather upset and thought I should have taken the baked lobster instead. The lobster looked white and there's no sign of grilling done. Tasted it and ya, definetly not grilled. Or maybe they did for like 5 seconds? It's more boiled than grilled.
This time round, the quality of the food dropped. Wasn't just my own opinion, but the others there with me also mentioned that the food isn't good. Quite disappointed with my visit this time round. Might give this place a miss the next time I'm at Vivo. Hence, I'm re-rating Earle Swnsen's.

Great place to check out on Sundays. This Flea Market has been around for many years. (It was previously at Clarke Quay if I'm not wrong.)
What you'll find there?
Collectors items, Toys, Vintage stuff, Second-hand stuff, Fashion accessories, bags and many many interesting finds.
Do give this place a go if you've got no where to shop on Sunday.
Nearest MRT station: Chinatown or Raffles Place

I was back again recently and took a video of what you will usually find at China Square Central Flea Market.

This is THE place to get all your scrapbooking and paper supplies! They have the largest collection of materials such as pattern papers, tools and embellishments. The largest scrapbooking store in Asia I think.
The staff are all very friendly and helpful. Always willing to give a helping hand. For mummys out there, they can help look after your kids while you shop too! (Well, this one depends on the crowd lah. If its very busy day, try to understand.)
They have very cool workshops too! Learn to scrapbook and create pretty handmade albums and cards.
If you're around Plaza Singapura, check out their store!

Cafe Cartel has been in Siglap for a long time... 6-7 years maybe. It's a permanent fixture now. They've recently adopted a 10% service charge (across all outlets) and started to serve the customer, instead of having the customer go pay at the counter. (I prefer the old system actually)
These are my usual orders: Pork Ribs, Chicken Lasagna, Aloha Soda.
I love the Aloha Soda. But well it's the only drink which has remained constant. Due to the change of servers all the time, the blended drinks tend to taste different every time my friend orders them.
The food portions have gotten a little smaller. But still sufficient for one person. The fries that come with the Pork Ribs... have been reduced to about less than 20 bits. But it's the kind I like the fat sort.
The cakes are pretty good. They go half price after 9 every night so that's a good thing if you love cakes.
All in all, I still frequent the place, but it's not really worth the price. 2 people for about $30 ...
