Art Friend is one of the most well-stocked places where you can get your art supplies. It boasts a large variety of every single thing you would need for your art piece. They even have art supplies targeted for artists on every level from the kid artist to the professional ones. If they don't have it, they could order it in, if you're willing to wait.
However, the staff isn't very friendly. They will not offer help and are usually found at the counter (if they can be found at all). But you could ask the customers there for help. Plenty of art students there who could give advice.
The pricing of their items vary. Some of the things are much more expensive but they also have bargain items.
I would usually head there if I know that the things I wish to find are quite hard to source for.

This was last Christmas. It was really value for money... 2 days 1 night weekend stay for $148. The room was quite spacious with a tub and double bed. It had those new sort of design where there's a glass between the room and the toilet? Room has a nice sofa and working desk too.
As for the facilities there's a gym, rooftop swimming pool, steam room and a spa on the roof top. They have 2 award winning restaurants... One's Jap and the other's fusion. I've yet to try both as I keep hopping to the Hawker Centre nearby for my favourite Chicken Cutlet Horfun!!
For entertainment you could even go to Pulau Ubin for the day - cycle, fish, paint, etc. Pretty cool really.
It's a real nice getaway place.

I believe this outlet has moved to Siglap - Cresendo building.
Great layout and ambience of place. Everyone was very friendly. No stuck up stylists introducing all kinds of greek hairdressing terms.
Athel cut my hair. I think he was one of the Senior stylists if not the head. He did a good job and kept up some small talk, without being too inquisitive. He wasn't irritating, but reasonable entertaining. After snipping my hair a bit, I had to wait a little for the Shampooing to be done. The receptionist immediately delivered magazines to keep me occupied.
The Shampoo and head massage was well done. The shampoo and conditioner they used didn't have the usual salon smell which i thought was FANTASTIC! It smelt really good.
They also shared some tips with me on how to maintain my hair without too much hassle especially after I told him that I was lazy.
All in all I think it was a good experience for my $37.

The shop sells Chinchillas, rabbits and hamsters... and all things related to them. They have a large variety of things for small animals because they specialize in them.
I love it for its wide variety. Jevon and Lifan are always available to dispense advice on your pets. They're very helpful indeed. The place is cosy looking and you can see that they try to entertain the pets a little and not treat them as lifeless commercial products. They take good care of the animals there so it's pretty safe to buy from them.
There's also free delivery if you spend more than $50, which is quite a low limit.
The slight downside is that they aren't very cheap. But I guess for the free advice... it's ok.

I went there some time back.
The ambience was ok, pretty much like the other cafes.
The pricing seems fine on the menu. (but did not seem so fine later).
Firstly, after we ordered, I asked for plain water and the server nodded. After a while, no water came so I raised my hand to remind. It was only then the other server informed me that iced water was not served (FOC) at this cafe. I'm not angry that water is not served (many places don't.) but I'm pissed at being made to look like a cheapo who keeps asking for free water.
Next the food that came looked ok. I took the ketuchup on the table and started to tilt it. Nothing came out. This was one of the situations where it's hard to get the sauce out from new bottles.... So we tried for a while but to no avail. SO we asked for another bottle after explaining the situation. The server gave us another one.... WITH THE SAME PROBLEM! I think it would have took just a little common sense to TEST first before handing the customer another stuck one! Then we raised the issue again and this time the server brought two bottles and he tried to pour for us... AND BOTH WERE STUCK! It was frustrating! The manager (or senior server) came to help and he just tried at our table.
(The correct thing to do at this time was to use a chopstick to stir the sauce in the kitchen, pour it out on a saucer and serve the customer the dish of sauce.)
Anyway finally we borrowed the sauce from the next table which seemed to have no trouble with theirs.
Food not fantastic.
Then we asked for the bill which took 10-15 minutes to come... and mind you, there were only 4 other tables occupied.

The Cheesecake Cafe is located just a stone's throw away from Siglap Centre. It's open from Wed-Sun, 4.30 - 11.30pm.
It is THE Cheesecake Cafe. As in THE. It serves up a whole host of different cheesecakes. There are also specials everyday which are not in the menu. The Rum N Raisin Cheesecake and Strawberry Oreo Cheesecake are great! There's also a peach one which I love but I can't remember the exact name. Anyway TRY ALL. I'm serious.
The food isn't all that great. They serve some finger food that taste different from time to time. The drinks are fine.
The ambience is very relaxed with jazz playing in the background. There are sofa seats and dinner tables to choose from, depending on what you wish to order.
It's the perfect place to chill out with your friends. But not for dinner.

Pepper Lunch! Definitely something new. The food cooks at your table so you needn't worry about it being served cold or stale-like. There's a wide variety of dishes for you to choose from with different combinations.
You could have salmon, chicken, rice, etc.
I had the Salmon and Chicken Combo, whilst my companion had the Beef set. Both of which tasted great. It would not be overcooked as the pan on which the food is served cools after a while.
The ambience is very casual as it is a fast food restaurant. The prices are higher than that of your regular fast food joints but it's really due to the quality of the food.
One small gripe I have would be that the servers could afford to smile a little more and they could make the system of seating the customers more transparent.

This is actually a concept restaurant. The food cooks at your table on a very very hot stone. There's no oil added, so it's really healthy. They use spices and marinate to make your meat taste good. There are pretty special dishes like the huge mushroom and all dishes are served with some vege and potato mash which tastes really nice!
The servers are well-mannered and always willing to help. They are also very knowledgeable and are able to dispense advice regarding the choice of food and the cooking method promptly.
The pricing is average. For the quality and ambience i guess it's reasonable.
I only have 2 gripes. One of which is that the variety is quite limited. There is only one dish of every meat... which means one chicken dish, one fish, one beef, one seafood, etc. The second is that I left the place, smelling as if you've just been to a barbeque.

Last thursday while i was rushing for an emergency pee pee while walking from raffles hotel to raffles city shopping center i came across a very interesting shop. Its not a shop actually, its a push cart... All i remembered was i glanced at a nice big brown bag that seemed leather to me from afar before i disappeared into the alley in search of the ladies.
Next i knew, i was already browsing at the nice bags, mostly leather i think. According to the lady it is low quality calf leather. The bags felt really soft and the designs were great. Looking around i saw there bags of different shapes, sizes and designs. What even better.. its having a STORE WIDE 50% discount. My favourite was a huge Deep Brown leather bag. Simple in design but very chic i felt. The lady at the cart is really nice, showing me the different models she had, designs and usages, even modelling to me the bags. I loved them all, had so much choices i just couldn't decide. At last i decided on a dark green smaller version of the one i saw and till today i still couldn't forget the one that mesmerized me..
There were bags for every occasion mostly casual and rugged in look. If you like perhap a elegant chic look when fitted with tight riding pants and white shirt.... According to the lady, they only manufacture a few pieces and so go grab the ones you like soon before they run out of stock.... all thumbs n many toes up.....

I marked my 25th birthday resolution with a DARE for myself. I think that it is pretty memorable to be a quarter century old and for this. i am going to do something that i feel, takes alot of courage. I am going to take my class 2B licence, aka learn to ride a motorbike. I have never been on a bike before until when i was 22 and boy... it was really thrilling and so. i make it a point to enrol myself for this course.
Being a non-bike orientated person, everything seemed net to me and so, i started surfing the new and came across HKL Racing. I went down to their Shop and to my amazement, they have 3 outles in the same area. The shops displayed vast arrays of various models of bikes, peripherals, parts and accessories. I was so amazed..... but i try to keep myself in focus. I wanted to buy a nice helmet, and so i approached a busy looking technician whom kindly referred me to a friendly female staff, pretty young and bubbly i should say. They brought me up to their other showroom with all the peripherals. There all sorts of helmets, for scramblers, racing bikes, for choppers, for vespa scooters, full faced, half faced with all sorts of finishings like leather, patented material and etc etc etc. The prices were pretty reasonable and there are also special limited edition items.
There are specially designed n padded riding vest, gloves and suits for purchase also. Being a newbie i settled for a $50 helmet in white, nicely cushioned and detachable cushions for hygiene issues. I am now ready for my first lesson in riding. They even have a website for you to view their huge product range.
For the vast array and plentiful choices with reasonable prices, i give it 2 thumbs up... Can you lend me 2 thumb, that will be 4 thumbs...... Why i have only 2 thumbs???
