Whenever I pass by the al-fresco section of 313 Somerset (which happens to the link to Pan Pacific Service Suite), I always see Oriole Coffee + Bar packed with customers. One night, my friend and I decided to join the crowd and had our coffee and dinner there.  Oriole is famous for its home-brew coffee. My friend ordered

Singapore Eats: Unlimited Rice Supply at Yayoiken, Bugis+ Image
Yayoiken is a Japanese Teishoku restaurant. Teishoku refers to Japanese set meal which usually involves a bowl of steamy white rice. And if you are white rice lover, Yayoiken offers a free refill of rice.  I ordered tonkatsu teishoku (pork loin katsu set). The tonkatsu is kinda over-fried for my liking so it became very dry. Such a

Taiwan Eats: Sun Cake from Jiufen Image
During our food hunting trip to Jiufen Old Street, my friend was suggesting to look for sakura mochi and sun cake (tai yang bing/ 太陽餅). Without doing any proper research to find these two items, we kinda randomly search for them based on two things, the price and the appearance of the items. Failed to find the mochi, at

I kinda grumble whenever my friend invited me to her house because she stays in Woodlands. Even though Singapore is small, Woodlands is so far from my place because I don't drive in Singapore. But she bribed me with Shanghai dim sum over at NanXiang and me, being easily swayed by food (and friendship, of course), decided to

I still remember the first time I came to Dao Xiang at Causeway Bay. I ate so much until my pants feel tight. Of course, that does not mean I have tried all the dim sum dishes that Dao Xiang has on its menu. So, with that self-justified excuse alone, my friend and I decided to return to

Singapore Cafe: Weekday Lunch Date at Artisan Boulangerie Co, Asia Square Image
When my best friend was still working in Tanjong Pagar, Asia Square has become our meet up place because it is exactly located in between Raffles Place, where I am working, and Tanjong Pagar. But as usual, eating at the food court on a weekday lunch time has proven to be a challenge. So one lunch time, we

After shouting our lungs out by riding some thrilling rides at outdoor section of E-da Theme Park, we were in the mood of...just walking around, doing nothing. So we decided to explore the section which lies directly beneath the monorail track, the Greek Village. E-da Theme Park is basically designed in Greek style. At one glance, you may

Whenever we have no idea what to eat in Vivo City, we always end up at Central Hong Kong Cafe. Probably it's because it's easier to get a table here and just like Xin Wang Hong Kong Cafe, Central also offers a lot of variety of food. From toasts to fried rice to noodles. My friend and I

I first came across Hogan Bakery during my random evening walk to Taipei City Hall. It's located near to the underground pass to Taipei City Hall Station. The bakery chain was pretty much crowded with people so it kinda piqued my curiousity. I tried the chocolate snow bun. It's basically a bun with white flourish powder on top.

Similar to Lotte World in Seoul, E-da Theme Park has both indoor and outdoor attractions. If you are a thrill-seeker, you should make your way to the outdoor part of the theme park. For instance, you will be welcomed by this big swing. If you are wondering how high can this swing go... ...well let's just say it
