If you are looking for quality skin care products with an economical price, this is the place to go. I walked pass this shop a couple of days ago and was simply overwhelmed by the beautiful yet clean image. Smiling faces and warm cheerful "Hellos" greeted me as I entered this beautiful shop. The "whiteness" and refreshing scent of the shop is very appealing to me as it gives me a sense of purity, cleanliness and somehow serenity.....
While I browse through the enchanting bottles of body scrubs decked in various colours and flavours, the friendly staff actually offered me an experience of this product that is enriched with dead sea minerals over at this very posh sink. She gently rubbed some lavender flavoured body scrub on the back on my hand and explained to me the product, after-which she washed it off and pat my hand dry with some tissue. The experience was great and my hand did feel rather smooth and moisturized without the sticky feeling like most scrubs will do to me. The scent was gentle and does not give me a headache. You must be curious why i say that... because the scent of lavender usually gives me a headache and only from a few prestige branded products that I do not get a headache from smelling them and I'm glad.. this lavender body scrub isn't one of them. I liked the after-math feeling of my skin and decided to buy a large bottle at S$29.90. Be sure to also purchase a small little wooden scoop which pairs really well with the clean small square bottle. While I smelt the other various flavors, I've also decided on a smaller 150ml Cherry Blossom body scrub which gives a sweet floral scent. I mean.. a girl needs a new scent for every mood, every activity and everytime she dresses up. Just be glad I didn't buy the entire 7 flavours.
They do also carry matching flavors lotions, creams, shower creams, mist, the entire complete range of body care and 2 items i find extremely interesting. The foam whipped body soap is a pressured bottle of liquid body soap that creates a thick and rich foam when pressed that is of a light and creamy texture that cleans very well. The body souffle is also mighty fantastic. This gently scented body cream that is very moisturizing yet does not gives a sticky after application experience comes in a neat flat bottle for easy carry around and no spills. I love the texture as I find it rich and creamy yet easy to apply and I was surprised by the quick absorption of the smooth cream on my skin. My skin did feel supple after application, as such I also got myself a travel sized of 50ml one for S$13.90.
They also do carry various bath accessories including bath towels and bath robes... A true bath experience accessories, scents and products. Its like bringing the entire MiddleEastern Bath experience right to the comfort of your home.
The price is great, product is fabulous, exotic scents such as vanilla and sandalwood available and most importantly, the helpful staff generously puts you through trials after trials.... I love the attitude and indeed a feel pampered just by visiting the shop, not to mention the beautiful packaging which I will elaborate in the next review.. So stay tuned...
Somebody did once tell me: 天下没有丑女人，只有懒女人。 :)

We visited KBox during the first week of the new year as we would like to start of this year with an out-blast of *non-coordinated* *heartfelt* *ear-bleeding* emotional declaration of love songs, kpop, jpop and Gong Xi Fa Chai Songs.... Yes.. Kbox do carry a wide variety of songs of various genre, language and artist from the international scene. What is most appalling is the songs our local Singaporean artiste sings. Matter of fact, if not for the interactive and easy to use Kbox computer song selection system, I would not have known that our local tv-serial stars did singing and you could sing their songs..
The outlet is at the second level of *Scape, if not the top level. It looked like a black/red hole with a counter. I am thrilled with the Kbox logo stuck to the ceiling, I thought its interesting but seriously, how many people do raise their heads to notice whats on the ceiling? Its not a big place and the rooms are small... We are sadly given this really small and oblong room to house 4 of us and the air-conditioning is really WARM.... Matter of fact, when we open the door to the outside we could feel the rush of cool wind into our room... While we kindly notified the staff, we were told that nothing could be done. While our group increased in size, we asked to change a room and the kind staff gladly agreed to let us, however this came with a PRICE.... which i will tell you later... The next room though slightly larger is also WARM... shortly as we inquired further.. the two rooms are sharing the same compressor unit... *FAINT*... yes.. laterally feeling faint...
Though the service is pretty friendly and the snacks are yummy, not all the gadgets in the room is working properly. I guess its about time for a total maintainance of the equipment must be made. Except for the song selection computer system, i should say the *applause / jeer / clap* functions which is very fun to me is NOT WORKING.... the wall control system is also not working and the microphone sometimes goes out of connection....
Now the price we are talking about... they allowed changing of rooms only when we had more people and just an additional of 2 person up us to the next catagory in which instead of just having to pay for the additional 2 person, we had also to pay for 2 additional snacks. Now the price of the snacks is the same as the price of 1pax... so its 4 pax in total. Not forgetting the room rental price and other misc. So it turned out to be pretty expensive and not the small promo amount they offer you. With the many separate charges here and there, i think its wiser to inquire on the phone or online first before you actually pop by.
This is a really small outlet and the rooms are small with no attached toilets. So if you are coming to this outlet, the sauna rooms are 503 and 505....

Someone had a craving for Peking duck for a family dinner so we randomly picked this place instead of the ever popular Imperial Treasure. 6 of us decided to be adventurous and over-ordered the no of dishes - but later realized that some of their portions are rather small so we ended up nicely full ~
Triple Delight Roasted Peking Duck (half) ($35) - to be honest I expected more from the reviews I heard. The skin was less crispy than ideal, although they did carve it tableside and all that. The sauces were very good though. Didnt manage to take a pic of the duck itself too.
2nd course Ee Fu Duck noodles ($8) - I was vetoed for my choice of how to have the meat done so we had this - which turned out to be actually quite nice as braised ee fu noodles are quite boring to me. It has a nice wokk hei accompanying it.
OHK Soup of the Day ($25) - This was excellent! The soup was double boiled watercress with pork ribs and they portioned it out for us but if you look at the colour of the soup, you'd know that it is really quality soup. A tad expensive for the dish but hey, ou pay for the ambience and quality.
Braised prawns with vermicelli ($13.80) - This was so good we ordered a 2nd portion. The vermicelli was full flavoured and must have soacked up whatever stock it was in. Generous portion of fresh crunchy prawns made this the best dish of the night for me. The crazy promotional prize is only valid for Fridays though - and other days have different dishes on offer.
Baked fillet of cod fish with white truffle sauce ($28) - 2 pieces of the fish nicely grilled and drizzled with white truffle sauce - simply yet very good. A smallish portion though.
Sauteed scallops with lily pulp ($28) - What I would expect and nothing out of the ordinary. You can skip this boring choice if you like.
Braised beancurd with mushrooms and vegetables ($13) - Same boring dish too - good but nothing wow.
Sauteed seasonal beans with conpoy ($18) - The long beans were not deep fried which is such a rare bonus. The plate was topped off with ikan bilis and shredded conpoy bits which made the dish feel more luxurious than average.
The bill came to $236 for 6pax (inclusive of the tea, towels etc) which seemed quite okay for the number of people we had and looking at the no of dishes we ordered. But its still not a everyday place.
Service was rather good and attentive so the experience was a plus.

I had the opportunity to attend a biz lunch there and had the set lunch at $38 per pax. The photos, by the way, are terrible as I had to sneakily snap them with my phone.
Steamed pork dumpling and deep fried prawn in pumpkin sauce - the pork dumpling is siew mai really which was okay but the prawn was fresh and crunchy and literally drowned in the rather tasty gooey pumpkin sauce.
Braised minced fish in thick soup - nice but I couldnt taste the minced fish - a dash of vinegar made it better though.
Deep fried spare ribs in vinegar sauce - the vinegar sauce was quite unique but the ribs were too fatty for me.
Chef Chan's famous roasted chicken - I had this before years ago and I remembered not being wow-ed by it. This time, it felt the same.
Sauteed seasonal vegetables with minced garlic - disappointingly normal.
Chilled hawthorn jelly - good and a big portion too.
Service was very good but maybe because we had the semi partitioned hall and had 11pax. You also do feel the atas-ness within the traditional Chinese settings which makes the experience a bit better.
That being said, I wouldnt return as the food is really average for a supposedly reputable restaurant. Maybe because Chef himself no longer runs the kitchen?

Came here for a business Christmas lunch and opted for the buffet which had a 20% via most credit cards. I trusted the Sheraton brand and picked this place not really based on reviews, which I maybe should have done.
The place was surprisingly quite full for a weekday afternoon - especially for a price of $58++ before the discount. The best part about this place is the view of the man-made waterfall which somehow relaxes you as you space out watching it.
The buffet has all the essentials of a buffet: cold seafood, sushi / sashimi, appetizers, cheese, bread, soup, roasts, desserts but most were forgettable unfortunately. And that's why this is a short review.
Memorable - chicken soup and rum & rasin cheese. That's all.
In short, I wouldnt come here again.

This was a birthday treat for a close buddy but I've heard much about this place and the pictures on the website does make this place look very attractive!
The place was quiet on a Mon evening with only a handful of tables filled. Curious tourists were having fun snapping pics of the interesting decor. There's a almost romantic feel about this place and you may for a moment feel like you're not in Singapore.
Handmade mini crab cake sliders ($18) - specially seasoned crab cakes made in-house with guacamole, tomatoes, and caramalized banana ketchuo sauce sandwiched between mini saseme coated burger buns - Quality crab cakes with no stinging on the meat sandwiched between okay saseme buns. The banana ketchup sauce was not obvious enough though. But still a good appetizer!
Truffle fries ($15) - a huger portion of thick cut fries with a sprinkling of seaweed bits over it, served in a 'magazine' cone. Nice but they could have been a little more generous with the truffle though.
Duck confit ($27) - a popular classic with an Au Chocolat twist, pan roasted duck thigh served with potato mash, a white wine poached pear, and topped off with a tangy oragne chocolate sauce - For someone who doesnt usually take duck, I really liked this! The meat was fall-off-the-bone tender and it was still juicy despite the deep frying. The poached pear was nice too without the sickly sweet taste of most poached fruits. The sauce was intiguing but still tasty. The mash was average though.
Au Chocolat Macaron Burger ($18) - a chocolate macaron filled with layers of milk chocolate mousse, pasion fruit gelee, fresh strawberries, pistachio sponge, and our special sauce served with fried apple wedges and berry compote - I had expected the dish to be a sugar overdoes but surprisingly the combination was just right. The macaron itself was one of the better ones I've tried, and passion fruit gelee added a nice pop of tartness to the otherwise je lart dish. The apple wedges were a nice crunchy addition to the plate too.
Service was very good - this is the first place where they offered to make me a brand new latte at no charge after I asked them to help warm up my cold half finished one. Really nice touch.
A place good enough to take a shot at it / bring your date etc etc.

Indulge in a world of colorful Mexican music, flamenco and authentic rich and yummy snacks and mains...
I was there on a saturday night and this place is packed to the brim. I love the interior decoration of this place as I've always been a sucker for nicely decorated joints with matching theme and menu. Be greeted with beautiful tinted lightings and ceramic tiled tables and chairs. The air resounds party yet its audible for friends chit-chats with the occasional loud laughters that makes it even more relaxing.
Love their Signature frozen Margarita because its well mixed with a variety of flavors to choose from. We tried the assam flavoured which is pretty exotic and we don't get it anywhere else. Its very special and balanced as the extreme sourness of the assam tamed the bitter and spiteful tequila. I should say its one of the best Margaritas i've ever tasted. Especially served in these colourful and ruggedly gorgeous looking margarita cups made the entire experience even more interesting.
The food is yummy and interesting. Cheesy nachos is cheesilicious with a spite from the jalapano and the grilled chicken salad came in a edible bowl of crispy pastry. What is most surprising is the plate which matches the table design. I'm sure you will love it. Food is yummy and rich just like the way you have them in mexico, yet tamed to our asian taste buds. The portion I should say is good for sharing and you will surely love almost everything on the menu as I find it comprehensive with something agreeable for everyone.
I love the wall paintings as well, full of culture and gives the place a unique identity. Though being priced above average, i find it worth it to dine in a place with such interesting personality. Its a great place to visit with friends especially with big groups.
Be prepared to spend $30-60 per pax with signature Margarita in a group of 4.

If you are craving for some yummy home cooked japanese food, OOTOYA is the place to go. The restaurant looked simple with earthly coloured interior and i must say really low chairs and dining table. It gives me a feeling of dining in a small restaurant in the outskirts of tokyo. Very simple decorations and cutlery designs yet homely, warm and welcoming for me.
Food is delicious and simple... Choose from stirred fried meat and veg dishes to special appetizers like my favourite HIJIKINI.. which is a mixture of seaweed, toufoo skin and black soya bean. The soya bean is caramalized making the entire dish sweetish and the toufoo skin juicy. Not to mention the excellent health benefits of this low calories dish; how do i know of its calories??? Well they are all stated on the food menu. I am very surprised to see the estimated calories for each dish on the menu for all the selections in the menu including desserts, both for single dish order or complete with set. Also when you order the set, you get to choose a few types of rice combinations in a bowl, which included the Gokoku low calories, high fiber rice which is tediously chosen and carefully cooked, only exclusive to the restaurant. You can also choose 3 other types of flavours such as seaweed.
The service at this outlet is pretty good during my time of visit, however I am not sure of peak hours but... I love the open concept kitchen and the huge square table for mass shared sitting that faces the kitchen. Its extremely old jap feel however when you are here, you don't have to seat on your knees... Tables are pretty limited and they only admit customers with groups that have completely arrived. Reservations are also limited, so be early and on a weekend, prepare to queue for a little while.
I find having a meal here is pretty of a good value as the portion is not tiny and the price not gigantic. A rough ball park.. appetizers (S$3 - 6) drinks (S$1 - 5), Mains (S$18 - 35), Desserts (S$5 - 9).
They also do run some fantastic lunch time, high-tea and weekday dinner promos. So do watch out for the small little signs on the restaurant. And while you are there... don't miss the entrance as its small and so square... and low... you might mistaken it as being CLOSED.... if you can pop your head in.....

SASA is a great place to shop for all your skincare and fragrances. They are like a huge emporium for all you need to make yourself look good and smell good. This outlet i should say is much larger then any other outlets. I mean I have been to SASA so tiny and full of things... its like a one way street... One side IN and the other side OUT..
Spanning a great space, this particular outlet allows you to salsa inside. Well arranged with a wall of fragrances with many famous and big brands like ralph lauren, GioGio Armani, CK, Hugo as well as some exclusive brands that is only available in SASA outlets. I love it when they are running some promotions. These promotions could be so attractive that you can't just stop at buying one bottle of perfume. I should say they are also very generous with their testers as you could test on any fragrances you fancy and the helpful staff are always there to intro you the best selling and the best smelling fragrance. I find them knowledgable, helpful yet not intimidating.
If you are a lady, don't forget to browse through their extensive range of the cosmetics. They do have fanciful korean, japanese and taiwanese cosmetics with mascara so dramatic that you could look like a doll overnight.
Skincare range is fabulous too... though i feel that prices are pretty similar the departmental stores, however sometimes the promotions could be pretty attractive.

My favourite hang out cafe especially on sunday mornings while waiting to go for church service... Located next to subway and the food court which is currently under renovation, nicely tucked at a cosy corner spanning a good number of about 10 tables is everyone's favourite cafe.
My favourite food if you may ask is the good old ham and cheese toast.. Somehow, I feel nowhere makes the grilled ham and cheese toast as nicely as Cross Talk. Well you may say maybe i'm too hungry or perhaps its the press grill... Somehow... its very yummy for me.. I love the crispyness of the bread coupled by the buttery inside with juicy ham and nice gooey cheese... Grab a cup of regular coffee and you are on your way to paradise.
They do also serve a good range of cafe food and local snacks and quick meals like Nasi-Lemak, Soft Boiled eggs, etc. Price wise i think its pretty economical for dining in town. Its a simple small place ran by locals. Extremely homely, cosy, easy and great for small chit-chats or informal business talks. Not really a good place for big groups but if you are looking for a not so noisy and cosy place which serves pretty nice snacks with some quiet chit-chat this is the place. I particularly love the seats near the glass window panals as i love to watch bustling everyday happening while sipping my cuppa potent caffine laced beverage.
Nothing really WOW-ing but its great for weekly or daily homely hangouts :)
Great place, Friendly staff and fabulous grilled sandwiches.. YUM!!!
