I was at Changi Terminal 3 public area recently and was surprised by the number of great food selection there. In the past, there was only the food court and a few miserable overpriced restaurants, but now, things are different. They have a good variety of restaurants such as fast food, Chinese cuisines, Japanese Ramen restaurants, Coffee & toast cafes, Butter Studio Cupcake shops, Carl's Junior, Crystal Jade, Dian XiaoEr, and even Durian Empire. The prices and food menu is very much the same as what we eat in town. Not much an increase of change of menu.
Shopping has also increased in varieties. Now they have Cotton On for some last minute clothe purchase, shoes at BATA if you feel your footwear is not so comfy, Giordano for I LOVE SG t-shirts which make great gifts for your overseas friends, Home Fix if you forgot to bring your handy torch or even KidzTime.... They now have almost everything required.. even Telco's set-up shops in Terminal 3... which i feel is all geared up to be used full fledged once the budget terminal phases out in September.
The thing i don't really like about terminal 3 is the confusing carpark area... I just feel that its confusing and sometimes we would like to park nearer to the entrance to the mall/public area to facilitate children or old people. Its hard to find the mall area in the carpark because its not too well lit and signage are few and hard to spot. When you get there, most of the space are already taken up and poor grandma... she really have to take her time to crawl there and the carpark is soooo huge.. by the time she did so..... we could already have finished our meal.
The lifts and decorations are great in the mall. Brightly lit with greenary and sophisticated electronic buttons for lifts and other electrical fixtures. The toilet is clean but i've been to much cleaner airport toilets. I also feel that airport toilets should be like hotel toilets... as airports are our first and last impressions to our invaluable overseas guest. The toilet sign in T3 looks fabulous and the setting of the wash basin, sensor tap with hand wash, hand dryer, tissue for cleaning your hand all at one spot and not forgetting full length mirror for that last check to make sure you don't walk out with a trail of toilet roll stuck to your heels.
I should say.. its not the World's BEST Airport I've been to but it sure is one of the FEW BETTER AIRPORTS... It has everything we need and does not cost much more then the regular city retail prices, transport to the airport is convenient, quick and not too pricey. However service is still not so good though I've met pretty friendly airport staff, yet not so handicap or elderly friendly Eg. like wheelchairs are not easily and readily available...

This is dedicated to our good friend who have yet to taste the mystifying revolutionized bubble tea from Gong Cha...
Many would have observed the large number of students, office workers, tourist and casual diners hanging around this Gong Cha outlet.. They are actually waiting for their number to be called to receive their carefully concocted, mixed, shaken and pearls/jelly/bits of yummy stuffs added in, heat sealed in an air tight plastic container drink.
All you have to do is to choose the kind of drink you would like to order, decide on the level of sweetness you would like (100% / 80% / all the way to 20%) and make payment at the cashier, then you get to stand around and wait for your number to be called.
There are many great flavors and are all exciting to try, however, you might prefer regular flavors, I would say, they make the regular common flavors taste yummy. I particular like the Winter Melon Gong Cha with cream on top with pearls and sprinkling of green tea powder. The cream is a little salty when tasted on its own, however it goes so well with the winter melon tea. Pearls are chewy and does not lump together, a little honey taste and they give a good amount as far as dessert is concerned.
They even have earl gray milk tea or oolong milk tea, but the other one I love is the Lemon Roast Melon Tea... it has bits of Roasted Lemon in the tea, both a little zesty sour yet full of flavor.. One Cup of such Tea is great for curbing both your sweet tooth and thirst...
So dear friend.. its time to revolutionize your taste buds.... Pick up some courage, buy yourself and US a cuppa Trendiness.... Get HIT by the wave of HIP Tea Drinking.....

Bao Today 包今天 is not Justice Bao 包青天。 I was hoping to find a judge or a bao that is almost totally black with a crescent moon, however i fail to find anything like that! But what is really nice is the half baos.... They look like naked baos without their caps on.. or more like botak baos when all you can see top down is the filling of succulent meat, egg and mixed veg sitting on a round bao skin. Here is all the filling you can have without filling yourself silly with the excessive carbohydrate rich bao skin.
Out of the many other dim sum items we ordered, I love the fried carrot cake best, its crispy on the outside and soft and creamy on the inside without the excessive oil on the outside. The Belly Pork Bun is also yummy. The Belly Pork not too fatty and sauce savory and well spiced. BBQ Pork noodle is of a good portion with fried wanton and wanton soup with succulent prawns, however i find the noodles a tad too salty.
Seating is tight... If you are with a big group, this is not the place to go. Service is almost non-existent however, the food is pretty decent so, during meal times it is still packed. I feel like a sardine seating in for a meal and what more by the walking area, though i enjoy watching shoppers salivating at my food, I am also afraid of running toddlers banging onto my table with hot soup and coffee. Seat are not comfortable, so I will only recommend takeaway, however that is not advisable as well as food ain't yummy if its soggy. So.... GO ALONE... or at most bring one friend........

If you desire the creamy texture on a smooth crispy butter cup of an egg tart yet feeling bored with the plain egg tart flavor, then be blown away by the savory and sweet egg tarts from fancy delight.
I was pretty skeptical about trying their egg tarts at first as i always thought egg tarts are like soda drinks... They only taste good in their original flavor and only when it is sweet. The green pandan flavored tart, double chocolate brown coloured tart and the pinkish jam centered tarts look rather unusual to me, however on receiving a half a dozen of these tarts in a box made me change my mind.
I tried the cheese egg tart, which is more savory then sweet and find it rather enjoyable. The creamy filling infused with generous melted cream cheese is simply heavenly. I love the mushroom & cheese as well as the black pepper chicken flavored ones. The butter pastry cups that holds the entire tart together goes very well with the savory fillings and simple melts in my mouth.
The sweet ones are yummy too.... I tried the chocolate chip which tasted just of the right sweetness and fused with the egg tart filling well. The blueberry jam one i had is a tad too sweet for my taste however i still finished it all. Last I ate the original flavored one.. Original tasted creamy, thick and smooth. It is of the right texture, not too watery or thick and hard like most traditional egg tarts. I love it when it looked a tad toasted with sugar on the top.. somehow.. caramelized sugar makes anything looks and taste good.
Meanwhile, there is not much to the shop in this outlet. I walk pass it almost often and location is great for take away as it is on the same level as the link way to the MRT station. Grab some tarts and some frozen yogurt and perhaps some really fine bread down the hallway... Meanwhile, they have so many other flavors..... I think I will need to run more so that I can try them all....

A fabulous dinner place with a great choice of food to choose from and all at a super value for money price.
It was a girls day out and while strolling through the many restaurants at Millenia Walk, we pass by this very small counter next to TCC, we were warmly greeted by the counter staff there. While we were issued charge cards, we walked into a so much larger dining hall with open concept kitchen, flaming pans and the aroma of grilled meat with sweet spices.
There were so many choices of cuisines you could choose from; spanish tapas, kababs, skewered meat, turkish rice dishes, sandwiches in panini, pizza, salad and so much more. The portion is pretty decent and some may feel big.... Wash it down with more then 100 choices of beer from all over the world. While I was there I was thrilled to see their One for One offers. You can have One for One for any kinds of bottled beer (till 8pm), sandwhich is also going one for one, and skewered meat as well.... Usually such offered are only valid on a weekday, however.. which I was there on a saturday evening... I get this special offer as well.
Dessert is also fabulous, though not many choice to choose from, you get the essential yummys.. Like Crepe and Ice-Cream, Brownie, Chocolate churros, ice-creams with waffles and other cakes. I would suggest go for the weekday high-tea... They serve a good array of sweets and savouries in a beautiful dual layered serviing plate.
They have both indoor and outdoor alfresco seats which are well ventilated with fan and great for evening drinks. Last i checked.. no mozzies and dust from the nearby road. Services was overly friendly... The staff was attentive, friendly and provided many good information. Basically, you get more than what you ask.. and before you could ask.. what you need is served....
A great place to hang out with your friends and family.. Big groups are okay here as there is ample seats.. however the crowd does come in during dinner time, so be sure to make reservations. Interesting colourful array of menu, drinks and deco.
Oh.... about the damages.. First there is no service charge and service is super great, then i ordered a one for one sandwich (ham & cheese / Roast Beef served with fries and tossed salad) which i couldn't finish and it cost me a good $13.80. Bottled german beer about one pint per bottle $15 and its one for one. Skewered meat and skewered muchroom one for one $12.80. Spanish seafood in a cute cone looking clay plate with Spanish rice $18.90.
It seems like I will be coming here more often.....

I had lunch at Carl's Junior at Jurong Point today.. though I'm a west side girl and frequent Jurong Point so very often, it was my first ever visit to this Carl's Jr outlet, mainly because there are much too many restaurants, fast food joints, food outlets and high calorie food to choose from.
It was a great experience. Great because I was served by this really really really cute Caucasian staff, tall, handsome and very polite.... and of course deeee.....licious burgers....
I would say that the location of this joint is like an indoor alfresco styled setting. Why... because you get the natural sunlight from the floor to ceiling glass window, you get to seat by these windows, watch the busy road below, trees swaying in the wind, birds flying blindly into the well polished glass yet.... no sweat from the blazing afternoon sun on the Sunny Island Set in the Sea.... Plenty of well cushioned seats and clean tables.
While I was there, I could see that the outlet is understaffed, there is only this cute guy at the counter, the branch manager and another kitchen staff in the kitchen and there is this two other guy dressed in well ironed shirts and pants looking more like area manager or management staffs of the franchise. While lunch hours picks up, this 2 management staff actually helped clean the tables, pack the rubbish, go around collecting trays and greeting customers. I was impressed watching all these happen and humbled as well.... Though understaffed.. I still feel that service is good. My order is served quick enough and the way its prepared is as expected.
Theres this promotion going on, called the S$7.90 combo meal which you can find more info at (http://carlsjr.com.sg/live/promo14.php) and I thought its the best value ever. I ordered the Chili Cheese Burger, which is done mexican style the way I liked it. Beef patty is juicy and the beef chili sauce is seasoned just right, the burger is huge and the combo comes with medium fries and a medium drink cup, I should say good for 2 if you are not a particularly BIG APPETITE diner, you could also upsize it to everything large for an additional S$1. The fries/chips is the best of the fast food chains I ever eaten and they are pretty generous in quantity...
I love the Self-Serve unlimited refill drink booth with free flow of ice tea and slices of lemon. The self-serve condiment is great as well, you get chili sauce, ketchup, salsa and pickles, which is really yummy..... The ingredients are of pretty decent quality and if you haven't tried a Carl's Jr Burger... you must try it.... and I'm sure you will be back for more!!! Stop counting the calories.. Just Burn MORE!!!

What comes into your mind when you hear about Chalets in Singapore? I recall wet and sandy bathrooms, mosquitoes aplenty, squeaky bed and a beach full of noisy teenagers.... but this place is nothing like i've ever imagined....
I was first greeted by a private parking area exclusively for only two bungalow (G & H) with 8 parking lots and a security barrier... Walking into the house, which is nicely cooled at 25 degrees by a nicely decorated hall by a strong shiny LG air-conditioning. Containing 4 bedrooms at 3 levels with every room equipped with a good strong aircon, nice clean bedsheets, firm beds, LED TV and PS3 for our complete entertainment pleasure and super clean and luxurious bathrooms, complete with hotel grade toiletries and towels... Matter of fact, there is an air con unit at every level of the walkway, which i think its too luxurious.
At the hall, you will find a full fledged karaoke set complete with a selection of 2000 over songs to choose from, cable tv, wifi and a OTO massage chair. Theres also extra chairs, mahjong table, big strong circulation fans in the storeroom for huge parties.... Dining table can seat 8 and theres a kitchen with electric stoves, oven, huge efficient fridge and all you need to cook up a good meal for a big celebration. An efficient gas BBQ pit seats outside with nice huge wooden tables, a swing, lawn picnic table that seats 6 and you also get a private garden with beautiful lush wooden gazebos and good seaview. Tanning chairs and a door to the almost private beach. The beach is small but beautiful.... and i forgot to mention.... table soccer that is all yours to play... No need to put in the coins....... Airplanes fly low to land at the changi airport.. watch people sailing and coast guards driving their boats by... Its an all new experience.
Truly resort style living... I mean.... I would love to have a house like that.... minus the cleaning and maintenance.... Its a fabulous place to rest and relax... for a quiet family getaway and also for parties of up to 80 people.... Its a great place... especially for those who tend to get drunk during parties... You can just throw them at your private garden lawn area! Puke, Sleep, Snore all they want.. you know they are safe yet you won't have to smell their stench. Not many bugs or mozzies and its very clean and children friendly, only set back is that its exclusively for SAF personnel. So its high time we get to know more of these great people!

I agree with $money$ that the outlet is a tad too small, however it serves the people working around that area well. I mean sometimes you just want a packet of sugarfree candy to perk up the not too happy, non-efficient afternoons.
I love to shop at watsons actually.. I mean for a comfy 10 mins break.... Apart from snacks, candy and toiletries, sometimes there are some interesting finds. Like Hello Kitty Candy in Box... or snoopy limited edition pocket tissues, ....
I find this outlet especially convenient for those who wants a quick fix of painkillers for their headaches and when on dire straits when your mother's eldest sister (YI MA) comes visiting.... You wouldn't want to walk too far... Excellent location, however if you can have a bigger outlet, that will be great.... It has everything I need especially eye make-up removals for my panda eyes due to that smudging eye liner.

This is where the old Sushi Tei used to be, and the charcoal barbeque part was what attracted us to pick that place. We arrived on a Friday evening to see the place packed almost to its brim, which we hoped was a good sign.
The seatings are split into 2 level: ground floor and 2nd floor. The first floor is where they have a bar seating too, and upstairs are where all the barbeque happens, plus private rooms available.
We were seated on the 2nd level - the tables are thankfully not placed elbow to elbow. BUT oh my, the smoke is crazy. You can see and smell the barbeque anywhere you sit as the place is not equipped with even 1 of those thingy that sucks up the smoke instead of letting them drift all over (are they called smoke inhalers?).
Bimbimbob ($18) - (dont know why its spelled this way) we decided to each order a main instead of the bbq after all. This is what I always order at a Korean place and was keen to see if there was any difference in how an authentic korean restaurant does it. Not too much difference I must admit although the stonepot was piping hot and created the burnt bits of rice I've always had a fetish for. It was served with the sauce on the side and soup which was cabbage I think.
Side dishes (complimentary) - The sides dishes were nice but not wow. We had ikan bilis, boiled veg tossed with sesame oil, lotus root chips, radishes, kimchi etc. Any of them is refillable and there'll be new ones if any of the above runs out.
Raspberry wine ($28) - We tried something similar at Bibigo (Raffles City) once but this is not as nice, a bit too acidic for me.
While the good was average, the service is seriously amusing. It was almost non existent if you end up sitting at one of the corner tables like us - and it almost felt like they were trained to not see waving hands. Requests for more of the side dishes had to be repeated several times to different staff, and our order of dumplings were forgotten. We waited very long for the wine and decided to ask what is happening to it - then it came soon after that.
But when the bill came, they had charged us for the dumplings which never came, and 2 bottles of the wine. We brought this up to one staff who seemed to be hesitant, then the bill was brought to another staff, we saw them discussing it, and the staff who took over the bill looked at us suspiciously before turning to the cashier to take off the items we never had.
I'll not come back. While food is nothing to complain about, having to deal with the experience is not okay for me.
(sorry for the blurred pics - must be all that smoke)

TCC is having a 1-4-1 main course of pasta right through to 31 July as their Great Singapore Sale (GSS) promotion and was thus a good choice for a family dinner of 6pax.
We picked the indoor seats and had good cushy seats for all of us. We had varying choices but I can only comment on what I had:
Crumbed Mushroom Patty with Wild Mushroom Glaze ($20) - this was a tough choice against the pastas but ultimately I picked this as it looked interesting. And it was...sort of.. The 2 big patties had enough diced mushrooms in them but I felt the mushroom glaze could have been served on the side as it makes the patty soggy. The accompanying roasted potatoes were alright, but the greens were sadly lacking a dressing - any dressing would have been good. The marinated tomato was good though.
Service was okay, nothing to complain about. Good while its still for 1-4-1 :)
