    I walked pass this outlet at the bugis junction and could not control myself not to be tempted by the nuggets of gold smiling at me over the glass counter. The aroma of well fried pipping hot fritters... oooh!!! makes me salivate uncontrollably. While I carefully inspected the exhibits, something healthy jumped out at me.....

    Fried Tofu in a cup... Its going for $1.50 for quite a number of pieces of fried tofu. Well I thought its healthy and full of proteins so a cup might just satisfy me for the time being. The expressionless staff simple asked... Do you want chilli sauce, mayo or nacho sauce to go with it... For sure I go for the cheese and there I go... piping hot deep fried tofu drizzled in yellow cheese.

    The cheese is superbly yummy. Like every nacho cheese flavor in town, its with a hint of paprika. Crunching on the thin crust of the soft and creamy tofu, though piping hot is superbly satisfying. The aroma of the just fried tofu while the springy tofu only mean fresh ingredients and well prepared batter.

    It was a rather good experience and I'm surely going back for more.

    Went to Laline at Marina Square yesterday and I must say, the service is really good. Their Staffs are so attentive and knowledgeable about their products. As she explains about their different range and products, I was invited to try the product at this very nice squarish sink.

    The body peel is actually a body scrub that comes in a couple of exotic flavours. Theres also this oil soap which is not oily at all, just that after a good wash, it feel soft and moisturised. Great for dry or flaky skin. The products are arranged by their flavors and they also do have smaller ml ones for travel.

    As its my birthday month, I've got a 50ml handcreme for free and I get to even choose the different flavors. On top of that, I was offered a one for one regular price items which I bought a body pill in oriental flavor and a body creme that smelt of my favorite range, the OCEAN OCEAN. I've also got for myself a travel set with body wash, creme and handcreme in Vanilla Scent.... :)

    It was a very pleasant experience and the location is easy to find. Just right at the corner facing the event concourse just next to the Old Fox Shop. Service is good, pricing had increased since they first launch but still of good value. Now they have a promo to receive a free lip gloss for thursday shopping. For more info, can check out the FB.

    I went to peach garden for a family dinner and though we had a great deal of ala cart buffet at S$ 39 buy 3 get 1 free, for a table of 12, we still paid about S$460 with no beer, just the buffet...

    Everything was good, selection plentiful and we've got one set of the peking duck free which is quite yummy. Each were entitled a bowl of sharks fin which came in many colours. Why i say so, each flavor has got a different colour. I ordered the crab meat one, and its slightly reddish, while the fish bone a marrow one was milky white.

    Dishes are sized according to the table size, however we always asked for a smaller dish just so that we will not end up wasting food. If we liked it, we order a 2nd or 3rd helping. For the entire dinner this is what we ate

    1) Fried Fish (2 orders) - nice and crispy
    2) Steamed Fish (2 orders) - in soy sauce more of a hongkong style
    3) Wasabi Prawns (2 orders) - crispy and creamy
    4) Black Pepper Prawns (2 orders) - fresh prawns fried with shells
    5) Stewed Pork in Meichai (1 Order) - Pork soft and yummy
    6) Braised Beef Tendon (1 Order) - Soft yet smelt like stewed pork
    7) 3 eggs spinach (1 Order) - this took slightly longer to arrive i wonder why, spinach is yummy.
    8) Braised Tofu (2 Orders) - Tofu is fried with a smooth thick sauce over it.
    9) Fried Fish with pork floss (2 Orders) - Fish is crispy and light with a generous pork floss topping.
    10) Fried Ee Foo Noodles (1 Order) - Noodle over done, bloated and not yummy. This dish is badly done.
    11) Fried Hor Fun (1 Order) - Noodles too sticky and not properly done
    12) Fried Rice (1 Order) - Ingredients ample and simple and light, tasty yet healthy.

    The choice of desserts are plentiful and almost everything is yummy... We had many servings each.

    1) Mango Dew with pomelo - Very yummy, slightly acidic yet is super nice
    2) Passion Fruit Ice Jelly - Jelly is QQ and dessert sweet... just hope they gave more.
    3) Black Glutinous rice - Comes with a ball of coconut ice cream... extremely nice and balanced taste.
    4) Almond cream - Yummy, balanced and sweet
    5) Longan and Red Dates soup - Loads of longan... yummy!

    Service is pretty good, staff attentive and restaurant is busy. Located about 5 mins walk away from the Novena MRT and you have to cross the road.... Its quite a hassle to cross this road. Great experience, food is okay only for the price. I still feel a little over priced even with the 3 free 1 promo.

    After reading the review from Natsu, I went especially to try the Ramen and of course the free flow Eggs.... Was so excited, I brought along all mine Kakis and proceeded on a wednesday evening to bugis.

    I must say the place is easy to find and rather spacious despite the small shop front. The restaurant is pretty long and casually decorated with a traditional Japanese style to it. As we arrived, we were shown into the restaurant, at this time 7pm the restaurant is still pretty empty with only about 5 tables taken up. We were each given a slip of paper to fill in our orders and a menu that is very limited in choice, just some side dishes but loads of flavoured Ramen roughly categorised into the 4 seasons, Winter, summer, autumn and spring as well as a KING...

    We each decided which Ramen type we wanted to try and chose the strength of the soup... The stronger the broth the saltier the soup, as such most of us picked natural, add on sides if you would like, an additional $1 for a slice of seaweed, $2 for an egg, etc... As we completed our orders, we were quickly served water (i appreciate that), self grinding sesame (terribly aromatic) and a container of seasoned bean sprouts...
    A table full of whatever Jap seasoning is available for us to add that extra punch.

    The noodles arrived shortly and all four seasons tasted different yet distinct in its own way. We ground our sesame, i must say pretty fun and added that into our noodles and it made it more yummy. The noodles were properly cooked and broth very tasty, though it felt natural is still too salty for me. We have loads of bean sprouts as it was crunchy and very appetizing and the free flow EGGS were amazing.

    The eggs were not HUGE eggs but rather of a smaller size but so well-cooked, i never had a better boiled egg. The egg white is springy and soft yet the yolk is totally cooked. I had 2 of the eggs while my friends had more than 2 because its totally too delicious. The entire meal was very enjoyable and service is fast. Food is delicious and the ramen is priced affordable. Ambience is nice, very jap style and environment comfortable. Good for dates and great for big groups, however do note that they only allow entry for complete groups, as such when u see a long queue outside, don't frat coz maybe it s just incomplete groups waiting, so do proceed to the door and ask the staff...

    I went for the Clarins Beauty Talk with the OCBC credit card mailer and boy did I not had a wonderful time... While I emailed to make the appointment, the reply was quick and for a slot of max 4 persons, i managed to secure 2 at the time and day of my liking. Its not for free of course, yet its extremely worth it because the amount paid can be fully redeemed with purchase of any product.

    I was excited when I approached the counter with my friend for the beauty-talk. We had to make payment first which was quick and were issued vouchers of the entire sum we had paid, then we were offered to seat at a private corner while the friendly staff chat up with us on the daily skin problems we face. After making a mental note on our issues and skin type, we proceeded to start the beauty-talk because the others were late. I silently appreciated this professional act. The staff introduced their beauty analyst who brought with her a large tray of clarin product and offered us disinfected hair bands. This is a hands-on session and we could use all the product available.

    We eagerly put on our hair-band and the analyst sprayed a perfume like alcohol sanitizer on her hand while she explained the use of it. Smelled really nice and we felt like princesses. She worked on my friend's face while I work on my own imitating her actions as she knowledgeably explained the functions and ingredients of the products. I love the mask, though we only tried on half our face. The mask is light and foamy yet creamy. Its goes thick yet light on our faces and after we cleaned it off, our skin felt tighter and perkier... Its good result for one application.

    As we kind-of completed our applications of the various pampering products, Our faces felt essentially moisturised, light and gives off a pinkish glow. We were also given a starter set that comprises of travel sized items as well as generous set of test packets of their latest anti-aging range of serum and day and night creams. We were wooed to buy more of their products however as we rumbled on the current products we were using, the friendly staff was not overbearing nor insistent about our purchase. We each used up the coupon to purchase some daily products and happily headed home. Though we didn't give them a BIG SALE (as the products are moderately higher priced), the staff were still friendly and professional, as such, i'm sure to go back and give them more business. Excellent character and sales attitude. I am impressed.

    The products were great in texture and do really made a difference to my skin, though I'm the regular combination skin with many other issues due to my laziness. I'm gonna try the stuffs in my goodie bag and be sure to go back for more...

    I've had a great experience and its totally worth it. The money I used to buy the products, I get a free comprehensive hands-on on most of the products on top of that a very fruitful goodie bag... I'm simply aesthetic....

    If you enjoy looking pretty and making other's pretty then the MAKE UP FOREVER ACADEMY have courses to offer you to learn the art of using cosmetics to create illusions. I feel honoured to be invited to attend their open house during the SG Night Festival and am even more excited to see their products.

    I was admiring the awesome glittering tattoo on the lady's face when she greeted me at the door with the warmest smile I've ever seen. While I step inside, I am amazed by the rows and rows of cosmetic products in a huge array of colours, hues and textures. The staffs mostly dressed in black, with the most flawless made up faces and funky tattoos happily introduced their products to me. The products are made in a few range, one for normal, another for artistic expressions like body arts with options of high glittering colours and luminous colours. Yes you heard me its luminous and not fluorescent, though they do have fluorescent hues, its the luminous that AWED me.

    I was later invited upstairs to view their exhibits whereby mannequins are painted with luminous cosmetic products in the most intrinsically mesmerizing design styles. Its an exceptional experience as we entered a dark dark room, only illuminated by UV tubes of a dark blue hue and the body art of the mannequins simply light up the spaces around them. It looked fantastic, every theme on the mannequins are carefully chosen and expressed in the most illustrative manner. Check out also your teeth and eyeballs, they too glows in this light wave.

    After a tour of the exhibits, we headed back down and got ourselves a cool tattoo in luminous body paint. A further explanation of the different courses they offer like bridal make-up courses, diploma courses in make-up, body painting and many other beauty related courses are also available and scheduled.

    The visit ended with a good tone and by their individual made up faces as well as their demo of the products, I could find their proficiency in using these professional make up tools and products as such if I have any friends who is interested to learn the art of using cosmetics, I am sure to ask them to take up a course here.

    The range of the products is pretty comprehensive and location really good, near to Armenian street and facilities complete.

    The signature green and white cubic table cloth brings back fond memories of celebration lunches and dinners when I was just a little girl. I appreciate the thought of keeping all the Jack's Place restaurants simply designed using natural materials and colours.

    When I get to visit Jack's Place during lunch, I will definitely get the SET LUNCHES... because its of a very good value and portion is just right for the big eater me. There's the standard executive set lunches with choices like deep fried dory fish, ribeye steak, t-bone steak or steak and chicken combo while they also do have daily specials for all 7 days of the week featuring real nice sirloin steaks and etc. The daily set lunch menu are different for every outlet, so do identify your favourite set lunch outlet.

    For a mere S$12.80, you can get a soup of the day with garlic bread, a main course, a dessert and coffee or tea. Upgrades are also available for drinks, soup and sides, however the standard set works for me.

    The soup is a cream of mushroom and its rather watery with bits of mushroom inside, it tasted a tad too salty for my liking however it is clouded with a thick aroma of chicken and mushroom. Garlic bread is ever so crispy and yummy. My main is the fish and chips, fish fried till crispy and juicy inside. I simply enjoy the salad that comes with the fish and chips, concoction of fresh veg and dressing is yummy, juicy and refreshing as compared to the fried fish. Dessert is a light cream cheese cake which is surprisingly yummy and light and i had some singapore blend red tea which tasted extremely local.

    I love the baked potato, but I didn't have any, perhaps the next round. The service is prompt though the place is pretty crowded, I get the staff's attention quite easily. The restaurant's location is quite good, next to the restroom and seating arranged in a good manner where everybody gets ample space.

    Quite a good environment, value for money food and pretty good service. I enjoyed my lunch :)

    We held our last 38 auntie gathering at this outlet of the Peach Garden dedicated to a night full of 'yaking' about the everyday topics of family, children, why we must buy la senza lingerie, which store is having a good sale and of course the cute guys we meet through the mundane routine working lifestyle. Nonetheless, we enjoyed a good array of yummy food and the loud culture of a local chinese restaurant, we are kept safe from angry stares and loud SHHHHs.... as you know when there are more then 2 glee ladies on a round table, it tends to get a little out of control.

    So I am late again and have decided to avoid the enthusiastic newly checked in guest at the lift and I've decided to take the stairs. The Stairs looked grand alright, windy and carpeted, however on the third level I came to a closed door... While i tried to open the door, it was locked yet somebody heard me tugging onto the door and with a swish of the floor lock the door opened up to a new world. The friendly staff told me that nobody comes up by this way thats why the door is locked.. good thing he heard me :)

    While I settle into this really large and 'OLD SCHOOL' lavishly designed traditionally chinese styled restaurant, I cannot but notice the old looking wooden doors that leads to every entrance/exit of the restaurant, it kinda mismatched with the overall lavish deco.

    Anyway, the lady manager was nice to offer us whats nice on the menu and we decided on their famous Paking Duck and a few other dishes.
    Appetizer is some canned wetish nuts and we were served a tea which is fragrant yet the staff ain't sure what it was. The Peking duck was first striped off the skin and wrapped in crepe, served together with spring onion and cucumbers. Though the dark is huge, the veg that comes along with the many slices of skin and crepe is insufficient.

    The duck was then de-boned and served on a plate, pretty convenient for us ladies when we yak away, we kinda forgot how large the duck originally was that ended in a small plate of meat. We had "Luo Han Chai" which is a mixture of veg and bean curd skins stuffs in a claypot of braised sauce. The sauce is a double boiled brownish red in colour and it tasted yummy. Veg is cooked just right and savoury yet retains the bright green colour. We also had some longevity noodles which is braised in a similarly brownish red sauce. Noodles are yummy and is of a good portion.

    Dinner for 4 ended at about slightly below $80 with the other stuffs ordered, no rice, just all the dishes... and we chat and sat till about 9 where we realised we are the only ones left, The other 3 tables have left and they are packing up. Not crowded and can talk loudly... not that we want too, we just can't help it.... :)

    Great place for group lunch or dinner, Price is reasonable and food quality good. Portion is pretty good, staff service a mixture... manager is helpful when ordering yet its hard to get attention from them but when they are free they will drop by to refill your tea... So.. Its pretty above average on the services.

    Spotted a very rare sight of a moomoo spotted black and white food van that is really selling food out from it. Curiosity made me decide whatever that is available on the menu, though there is not many varieties to choose from just the standard 4 to 5 today's choices, just for that thrill of buying from a food van, I will pay any amount and have no qualms about tasting anything.

    The way the menu is being placed is super fun... Its like a black board by the side of the truck where 2 window like spots open up to a small kitchen in the truck and there you order, you are served and you make payment. Inside the van is a kitchen spacious enough for 2 person and pretty airy I must say.

    The menu today is Chilli Crab Alio Olio, beef burger, hot dog bun and chocolate brownie, while I am not quite in the mood for something savory I decided on the chocolate brownie. Its served in this really cute lunch paper box with the travelling cow logo on it and you could take as many forks and serviettes you want from them. There is no sitting area so just hang around standing around the truck. The brownie is warm and there a white creamy sauce on it, the sauce tasted pretty bland yet creamy and enhances the taste of the brownie. Brownie is chocolaty yet not too sweet and chunks of bitter sweet chocolate as well as some nuts made is extremely yummy.

    I think they are slightly higher priced then normal cafes and portion is not really quite enough for one but the quality of food is pretty outstanding and the concept is priceless!

    Love the concept of the travelling cow and upon understanding, they do travel to different spots to sell their cuisines and even ulu places that is hard to get away to buy lunch, they can be there to provide to you occasional treats. If I am organizing a party, I'm for sure to engage them.... their presence will Jazz up any party and make it the hippest one ever could have thrown.

    Attended the MEGA FLEA 8 organized by T.Cartel over the last weekend @ Suntec City hall 404. I must say this event is one of the best flea events I have ever encountered.

    The direction boards leading to the location was well placed as there are many other functions happening at the same location, there was not much pondering and I immediately could find the entrance of the location.

    At the entrance there is a photo booth where shoppers can take funky pictures with props and backdrops. Watching participants getting excited and all hyped up made me happy and added a good fun factor to the event.

    I was surprised by the scale of the event and how neatly arranged the stalls are. Though crowded, there are ample space for 2 to 3 shoppers to stop and browse while others can walk by. Though you still get some bag slapping action and butt bumming around, its still considered spacious for a flea market when every inch of space is must be accounted for.

    While I browse the stores, I realize some of the businesses are those that we hardly see on a normal flea, stuffs such as sale of red wine, fleece blankets, house cleaning services, innovative house hold products, imported foldable bicycles... There were also a good mix of young designers and patisseries, those that launch their special shirt designs, ladies fashionable bags, home made cookies which are rather yummy and even community project handmade retailed items... I was impressed by the good mix of participants and some of these stalls does have the WOW factor.

    The crowd is pretty good, yet there is ample space for browsing and hanging around. The ambient temperature and noise level is kept at a pretty healthy level and shopping at this flea market is extremely comfortable and enjoyable. Love to be able to go for more of such well-planned and comprehensive flea markets.
