    I was there last Saturday with my girlfriends. I've been wanting to check out any one of the boardgames cafe in Singapore for the longest time! But never had the chance till last Saturday. And now, I think I'm hooked!! Thanks to my friend!

    Pitstop Cafe is a homely and friendly boardgame cafe. Located on the 3rd level of 14B Circular Road (within clark quay), players first challenge was to climb that scary looking stairs leading up to the cafe. (I'm afraid of stairs you see... actually its not that scary lah!)

    You'll be welcomed by this unique looking door that most people will find it rather familiar (aka the push and pull toilet door) and upon entering, you'll see the entire wall filled with photos and graffiti! Great place for those who loves doodling on walls and photos! (Please keep to you own little space on the wall and photos only.)

    Free-flow of sky juice (aka plain water) in cute little pitchers. And I love love the cheese balls! But only got 8 pieces, which were shared among the 5 of us... next time I go (which is on Saturday!) I'll sure buy a whole plate for my own consumption! Wahahaha!!

    People at Pitstop Cafe are very friendly, fun and helpful. Need help with the games, just raise your hands and they'll come to you! (But pls understand that there's only couple of them and so many guests, so give them a little time to attend to you ya.)

    This is a great place to hangout with your friends and family! I'm definetly going to visit them very often for lots of fun and games and food!

    Kenny Rogers is the place we usually dine when we're at Suntec or Marina area. Cause we just love their sides!

    Usual orders would be the quarter chicken with 2 sides and the BBQ Chicken pita with 2 sides.

    Used to love their corn muffins but think I've grown out of it. *lol*

    And our usual 4 sides cause they are just too good to resists... Macaroni cheese, long beans, pasta salad and either the boiled corn or the steamed cauliflower.

    Overall a nice place for dinner.

    (Now I'm craving for their Macaroni cheese! -________-")

    The place looks so bright and cheerful and welcoming now! Kenny Rogers has changed their image and I'm loving it! Go check it out!

    133. The Central

    The Centr@l Mall is a new shopping mall and not every shop is ready for business just yet. In my opinion, its not quite a mall for shoppers who wants to shop around and just enjoy a shopping experience kind of place.

    However if you're looking for good food, that's one place you can try. Many nice places to eat at the "backside" or "otherside" of the mall, which is pretty hidden to me and my friend when we were there the first time. I only discovered them the second time I was there. Maybe due to the design of the building structure. At once glance, from the entrance via the bus-stop/mrt station, the mall seems pretty sad. (You'll see only a few shops , the rest are kind of "hidden" at the back of these front shops.)

    One shop which I thought was worth mentioning here will be Gobi. Their cute little cakes aka chocolates are the perfect gift for the sweet tooth girlfriend. They can be located at Level 1, opp Starbucks. (Web: http://www.gobi.com.sg/)

    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!)

    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.

    137. Earle Swensen’s

    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.

    Updated 23 September 2007
    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

    Updated 7 September 2008
    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!
