Pretty handmade crochet charms and embellishments make her accessories one-of-a-kind. Her lovely collection of accessories is very pretty and womanly. Her use of colors is simply magical.
Love all the designs! If only I can have them all!
Maria is also a very friendly lady who moved to Singapore with her family as her husband is deployed to work here. Very nice lady to chat with. She makes everyone feel so welcome at her shop (when she's goes MAAD at red dot museum.)
Go take a look at her blogstore. Buy one for yourself, or if you're a guy, buy for your gf/wife/mother.

I am a fan of TCC.... I simply love the nice comfy seats and warm ambience. Every TCC seemed like a sanctuary for me to spend a lazy evening chatting with my friends or simply just read a book. I simply love the whole feel of this place.
Not to forget the great selections of beverages they have. I am always amazed by the new creations like the NUTELLO... which is a shot of expresso with nutella smeared all over this nice oval short glass... Its drives you NUTS.... with its nutty taste and mind you.. this innocent looking beverage is simply delectable. IF you are a chocolate lover, this is the one drink for you. It combines the beautiful smooth nutella chocolate spread with potent expresso... The provide a small spoon for you to nibble and scrape the chocolate. Really fun and unique.
Bursting flavours from two ends of the world. Your taste buds will be so amazed by the bitterness of the premium coffee and the sweet sweet chocolate spread.
Are you bold enough to try it?

If you like paus, you must try this humble looking stall....
They make their dim sum on the spot, with fresh ingredients. I was attracted by the fact that a small stall can house so a mini dim sum production team... The prices were really reasonable and the paus were delicious...
I tried the char siew pau. and it was bursting with flavour. The thin, soft and chewy pau skin with generous fillings is a must have for breakfast. Very very nice...
When i sink my mouth into one of the char siew paus immediately i could feel the skin melting into my mouth and the flavours of the char siew fillings waking my tastebuds. It is saucy yet not too wet and the texture is a little chewy and chunky... Very very delicious.
Next i must mention is the red bean pau. The filling so smooth and generous... Oh.. very very nice.. Thin and soft skin unlike those in which you finish 80% of the pau then you find a tiny bit of dao sao. THis one is filled with red bean at least 70%. Red bean paste so SMOOTH, just right in sweetness, SOFT and Slightly Wet is just right for all RED BEAN BUN FANS out there....
The other dim sums were very very nice as well.... You MUST TRY THEM.... Really DELECTABLE.........
SHIOK SHIOK SHIOK SHIOK...................

Have you been to SHUNFU Food Centre...
Nicely tucked away from the vibrant Thomson Road is this humble looking building undermining the glamourous treasures it possesses.
There are a couple of famous stalls there at this 1 level hawker food centre... Perhaps a regular haunt for food lovers. The basement is a market and upper levels are sheltered parking. How convenient yar...
Let me introduce to you some of my favourites......
Stewed Duck Rice.. Simply delicious. This franchise has branches all over Singapore and the one that i frequent is at Liang Seah Street.
Char Kway Teow... Nice, generous plate of this singaporean favourite with fresh cockles deliciously stir fried till perfection. Got to wait, so if you want a taste of this fabulous local delicacy, have patience. Try also their freshly made Orr Tah.... A dollar a piece but its value for money. Very yummy.....
Next to the char kway teow stall is a Pau store. Freshly made paus with delicious fillings that is ozzing with flavourful sauce when you sink your teeth into them. Really really good and fresh. Can buy more for supper and breakfast.
Poh Piah.. This uncle's poh piah is simply the best. Healthy serving of fresh veg and nice crunchy stuffs he put inside. Juicy Crunchy appetizer.
Prawn noodles Soup or Dry...... Really good. huge prawns and soup so sweet you will leave a truly empty bowl.
Our all time king of the queue.... Muffins. This muffin stall trains our patients featuring a good variety of high quality YUMMY muffins at value for money prices. I personally recommend the double chocolate and my dad loves the cheese one. He can eat 6 of these muffins for tea break.... thats with LUNCH before and DINNER afterwards....
You can NEVER MISS IT.... The AROMA is to DIE FOR........
For other delicious food, Be there to find out......
Be there or Be SQUARE........

"Tau Sar Piah at Balestier Road is the Best......"
Have you ever heard of such a comment?
Well I have...... and i hear it all the time. That is so because people around me like my mama, papa and etc etc etc. loves it. This traditional pastry brings alot of good childhood memories for them and for me......... i just want to gobble them up, less the calories of course.
And so, the story goes....
On a faithful weekday afternoon, I was out 'eating snake' and because it was cool after the cats and dogs have all fallen, i wound down my windows while driving leisurely at balestier road heading towards the PIE.
While making sure I do not kiss the butt of the car in front of me and checking out the other cute drivers, something TINGLED my senses.... It was a familiar yet surprising aroma. It was that nice buttery aroma that reminded me I WAS ON BALESTIER ROAD.... Subsequently i saw a banner box written on it " TAU SAR PIAH" so immediately i tarik the car into the carpark next to it, just when i was about to miss the opening and drive into the shop.
The aroma itself is enough to convince you how SHIOK it will be to sink your teeth into these pastries... I approached the shop with much apprehension... I was afraid i had to queue but i was in pretty good luck because NO MORE QUEUE. So happily i started browsing through the various items they have.
I had to say.. the shop was neat and clean with a welcoming ambience. There were various flavours of tau sar piahs and even other pastries like chicken pie, apple pie, char siew pau, flavoured Breads, cookies and my favourite Kueh Boo LOO...
Then i realise some flavours are out of stock so i asked the lady and she said gently SOLD OUT... GOT TO WAIT IF YOU WANT MORE... Uh HUH.. thats why no queue anymore lor... So i just chose those that were left quickly.. before somebody else buys them.
I chose some tau sar piahs of assorted flavours, other pastries and a bag of Kueh Boo LOO and brought it home, hoping to curry favour my daddy, mummy and etc etc etc... These warm UFO looking pastries are very powerful... Even more powerful then my Double Dose of ambi pur... making me hungry all the way home...
I truely understand what it means by BAKED TILL PERFECTION when i saw the pastries.
Nicely shaped, freshly baked, salivating aroma, flaking buttery skin that melts right away in your mouth, leaving crust at the edges of your lips for other to oogle at....
I am truly considering joining them as a QC inspector......
Oh.. not to forget the generous fillings which are full of flavour and just right in sweetness. These little treasures are of such a size that one is definitely not enough, two is perhaps just right, three is when i'm not too hungry, four is a blessing.. but more is what i need.
My daddy loves the durian flavoured piah. He commented he never tried such special flavour of tau sar piah and the flavour is so strong but yet not as sweet as the traditional durian Kueh, and had all 3 of them leaving NONE for me.
Mum loves the Black Sasame piah. She says its of good nuitrition, helps produces more black hair and it was unique in every delicious way.
Etc Etc Etc prefers the nice, thick, smooth lotus seed and traditional red bean piahs. It brings back much mid autumn festival emotions that they started to play with sparkles.
I love the traditional salty and sweet tau sar piahs. They fillings are smooth and generous. Most importantly it does not stick to your teeth like most grinded tau sar. It simply melts in your mouth... And the Apple Pie. i bought it because its HUGE, bigger then my PALM.. looked Soooo CUte.....
The chicken pie was also soooo good.... Flaky crust with chunky filling so chicken cubes, some veg with delicious sauce.. The pastry is not thick at all but yet it can hold much sauce inside.
HUMBLE PIE BURSTING WITH FLAVOUR......
The curry puff, not for the faint hearted or weak stomachs. It is spicy... very very suitable for those who love the excitement of RED HOT CHILLI. THe fillings look innocent with hardly any signs of chilli. But it is SPICY.... Fills your tastebuds with that exotic explosion of spice and flavour. Guarantee your nostrils smoking.... It is definitely a MUST TRY...
Not forgetting the Kueh Boo Loos. I kept them for breakfast and they are still crunchy.... yet soft and nice on the inside. Goes so well with my pipping hot Coffee O....
Really SHIOKING Start for another working day....
Prices are reasonable. From fifty cents one tau sar piah is what i call... VALUE FOR MONEY..... The apple pie and chicken pie is also a MUST TRY....
Buy more can keep, they are freshly baked, thats if you can tahan not to gobble all of them up right away. I give SHIOK SHIOK SHIOK SHIOK for this traditional pastry shop. Must try, BUY and RECOMMEND ah............

Jalan Kayu used to be my dinner place after work couple years back. It was near my work place and near my home. Although there are quite a number of food places along Jalan Kayu, Cafeela is the one that we frequent often. So often that the uncle working there recognises us.
They've recently expanded and now has an air-con dining area too. Price and food still the same. Just that the menu in the air-con place is newer and has more seafood stuff as compared to their normal menu. This dining area is also a good place to host mini dinner party.
My usual orders at Cafeela includes their Pataya Fried Rice (Rate 4/5), Salted Fish Fried Rice (Rate 3/5), Curry Fish Head (Rate 3.5/5), Fried Beef Kuay Teow (4/5), Pratas (Rate 3.5/5, I prefer this as compared to the one down the road.) and Chicken Wings with Sambal (Rate 4.5/5). The wings aren't those crispy kind, but I like the marinating and the sambal just makes it more yummy! And now they serve satays too! Quite nice also. Can try. But you got to wait for quite a while during dinner time.
Overall, the food is not bad. Staff are mostly friendly, but do expect to wait for the food (sometimes even the drinks) during weekends dinner hours.
Nice place to chill too after midnight. If you like chilling with Tek Terik and Milo Dinosaur. =)

There were couple of shops selling Tau Sar Piah along Balestier Road. When we drove past these shops, the was no queue at these stalls. So I didn't expect to see a queue when I'm at my destination. But to my surprise, the queue was pretty long at 603 Tau Sar Piah. It seems to be very popular among the young and old.
While queuing I was always peeping to see if there's still Tau Sar Piah left for me when it's my turn. And true enough, by the time I reach the counter, there were only 2 salted ones left. (So sad. I love salted ones.)
The Tau Sar Piah is soft and fluffy. It was still warm when I bought them. (Fresh from the oven!) I couldn't resist so I had them in the car. Took couple of photos too. Uploaded here for everyone to see. As you can see, the fillings is packed full and the skin is thin and yummy!
603 Tau Sar Piah is worth a try! I was told weekday queue is shorter and more variety will be available at any one time. They're open till 6.30pm. Go try lah!

Bad Service
I'll definitely avoid going to this branch of Boon Tong Kee's again. Before we even stepped in, one of their waitress bumped into my friend with a dish on her hands. Instead of apologising, she gave him an annoyed look.
What happened to customers always being right?
And when we were trying to order food, the waiters and waitresses all seem to only have a 10-degrees viewing angle. All of them just can't seem to see the 7 of us frantically waving our hands at them to take our orders.
The food was not that fantastic either. The taste wasn't exceptional, and the food looks badly laid out. And being Boon Tong Kee, the price is on the high side too.
Boycott this branch, I say...

If you've not visited GV Vivo, then you better go give it a try. But let me warn you first, after visiting GV Vivo, you might not want to watch movie anywhere else!
Ever since I stepped foot at GV Vivo and caught a movie in the largest theater, GV Max, I'm so in love with the place that I insists on going to GV Vivo for all my movies! (But of course, I still will give the new cinemas a try.)
The seats are comfortable and leg room is so much more spacious than the other GVs. I think GV should start renovating the other cinemas too and make it as good as the Vivo one.
But then again, once GV Vivo is old, and if GV doesn't maintain the cinemas regularly, it'll one day become smelly and worn out too. So go try the cinema out if you've not already done so. Before it starts wearing out... tsk tsk.

Love fishballs? Love liver? Love lean pork? This fishball noodle stall is one that you cannot miss when you're around Toa Payoh area! Located opposite the JTC factor, this stall operates from morning 7am to noon 2pm only. (Sometimes they close as early as 1pm when they're sold out!)
Its hard to find $2.50 fishball noodles these days. But they stay true to their loyal customers who have been with them for many years. You can also upsize your order to $3 or more if you want more noodles and fishball.
Their fishballs are bouncy and tender. The noodles is cooked to the right tenderness that'll make you want more. Their self-created chilli is one that I cannot resists! You can ask for more if you think you can take it extra spicy.
Their other famous dish is the Fried Kway Teow. Appeared once on the chinese newspaper. This created quite a havoc for this stall as people travelled all the way from the West just to give this Fried Kway Teow a try.
This stall is sure one that you have to try!
