Looking for another interesting haunt to hang out with your friends? Why not come to T*3 Cube Cafe at Potong Pasir. I like this place the moment i step into it. Its a Jolly Fun place to be in. With its various colourful decorations and leisure ambience.
It feels exactly the living room everybody hopes to have when they are feeling JOLLY GOOD. I can say, this is one place with character. I describe it as Relaxingly FUN.......
Never been to a cafe FUN like this, there is just so much to do here. You can surf the net, or plug your lappy in and go crazy with an online war with your friends. If you are in for a football match, you could also hog the flat panel tv they have in the shop. But this is not all. There are a HUGE VARIETY of magazines NEW and OLD, Comic books and other reading materials for you to laze away.
If you are still not yet satisfied, you could also grab hold of the various BOARD GAMES to play with your friends. Wanna leave a footprint in this shop, write a message and paste it on their notice board.
The prices for the food and beverages here are of a very reasonable price. You know what i mean by reasonable. They serve coffee to desserts to beer and for food, they have snacks like brownies, cakes wedges to main course like sandwiches, spaghetti, lasagna,etc ,etc etc. You can get a decent meal here for less then $10, fun and entertainment is on the house. Ice blended fruit juices are only going for less then $4. Even their drinks and food are adorned with pretty little knic knacks. Its hard not to be JOLLY HAPPY here.....
This is a fun place and with the variety of options for FUN things to do here, it is hard to recommend all my friends to drop by....
One of the very few all women fitness club in town, I am AMORE fitness club's loyal fan.
I love the fact that it is a ALL WOMAN and Only WOMAN fitness club. Talk about Girl POWER.....
There are various classes available and usually in smaller groups. I like the attention of the trainers and the company of other women. WHen I am there, i need not worry how i look and am more focus on building my physique.
The classes that i enjoy most is pilates and hip hop. The gym is also fabulous. With many state of the art equipments available and a cosy changing and shower room. When i am doing the treadmill, i get a good view of the shoppers below. It reminds me of the calories i ingest and makes me more determined in burning them.
How do we know if we ordered a good bowl of wanton noodles. It depends on the ingredients, the texture of the noodles, black sauce and wanton...
Pontian wanton noodles is one of the best i had in singapore. It taste similar to the ones i like in KL. It is good because:
Firstly the char siew is of a good texture, not too hard or soft and the skin of the charsiew is mirinated with a good mixture of spices on a good source of fresh pork. The selection of choice meat is one that is lean with 30% of fats to keep the meat moist.
Secondly the noodles are cooked in such a way that it is chewy to bite yet not soggy. It is must be QQ to bite yet not too hard to swallow. The sauce is one that is of a good mixture of dark soya sauce with other type so sauces. It must be black with a little charred taste yet not too salty.
Third, the wanton must be one that contained just enough filling. The skin must be thin and smooth and the fillings marinated to perfection...
Pontian wanton noodles possesses all these criterias and it is hard to come by such a good stall.
Definitely a must try for all the food lovers out there.......
It was another rainy weekday afternoon and I had just emerged victorious from another massive jam on the Sheares Bridge. I suddenly have cravings for hot lce Lemon Tea.
So....... Kampong Glam Cafe... here i come.......
Parking is a breeze, thats if you have a real good luck, but because it was rainy, I found a good lot nearby the cafe almost immediately. Usually that place is cramp during lunch hours as the white collars working in offices nearby will charge at that store for their Lunch Kills....
It was a good rainy afternoon indeed. When i reached there, most of the food are still available. Immediately i ordered... Chilli Fish, Fried Chicken Wings, Some Dao Guar Long bean in chilli, tahu goreng, potato patty, curry chicken and rice. I am not a spicy eater... actually matter of fact i take Ketchup with everything.... As i always think that my lips will swell when i take spicy food. Curry to me is never a spicy food. I love especially the exotic taste of their curry and the chilli fish is so tasty. It is not too hot really and my lips didn't swell... The dishes were prepared with fresh ingredients and generous amounts of spices. You must drizzle more curry sauce on your rice as it is very very yummy... The FRIED CHICKEN was crispy on the outside and Very JUICY on the INSIDE.. I love the skin best, as it is well miranated but not too salty or oily.
Besides Rice dishes, noodle dishes, GADO GADO and Etc... They also have creative beverages. The hot ice lemon tea is wonderful to have after meals or even before. The fabulous aroma of the good grade tea leaves with a squash of lime could really relieve bloated stomach and helps in PERKING you up. The other beverage I like is Teh with Ginger. I love the smooth taste of the tea with a tinge of ginger that helps to cool the throat and soothe my stomach.
THey have traditional cakes, Kuehs and snacks served at the cheery transparent show box. They are nice, moist and soft with rich flavours of coconut, gula melaka and tapioca... There are various varieties available to go with the beverages....
I'm also a starhub maxonline user. Personally, I feel that maxonline is faster and better as compared to other bb provider. Have been asking around others too when I have to recontract my subscriptions. And usually a higher percentage of ppl I talk to recommended me to stick to starhub. At least you don't have to worry about your home line plans? Another reason why I'm on starhub is also cos I do not have a home line since everyone at home has a mobile phone. And with the free incoming, what's the point of a home line?
If you find that the plan you subscribe to is too high, you can downgrade to a lower plan. The speed shouldn't be reduced too much. If you're comfortable with the wireless@sg speed while surfing outdoor, then go lower plan for home cable I would say.
If you are feeling bored and you are living in the west or south western area, you can always pop by holland village. It is a more happening place for the westies.... thats if you do not want to drop by town as there are not much choices besides great world city or VIVO city which is already nearby town.
There are many cafes, restaurants and food joints in holland village but the one i loved most is TCC. Perhaps its because of the good experience i had with the other branches of TCCs in town that i would naturally choose to go into TCC.
I like this joint partly because of the comfy seats. They have these especially elevated sits that give me privacy and much comfort. I used to laze my afternoons there after classes while i was in UNI.
I personally love the wedges with spicy cheese dip for snack. They come in pretty huge portions and remains delicious even when it turns cold. Generous cheese dips is great for a cheesy me..... I once gathered with my classmates there playing uno stacko and we could squeeze all 8 of us in one table. I also love the wonderful sandwiches they serve especially the one with slices of beef.
It comes with delicious PAPADAM crackers and yummy side veg with sweet wine vinegratte sauce. The portion is quite generous and it is definitely YUMMY....
Really a must go HANG OUT place......
Usually they are open till wee hours of the morning on eve of weekends and eve of holidays. If you like a good healthy mid night snack, you might want to drop by TCC. Or perhaps hangout with your friends for a good chat when you don't feel like hitting the pillows early.
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.
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.........
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......
