Back in my Junior College days when we didn’t have much money, gatherings with friends were limited to meals at McDonald’s. Only on special occasions, like when it’s someone’s birthday, would we enjoy the rare treat of dining at places like Fish & Co. I remember there was once when...
In Malaysia, I indulged in one of the best nasi lemak (rice cooked in coconut milk) I’ve ever had in my life at Madam Kwan’s. Since then, I have been wondering if we can enjoy the same thing in Singapore. With some googling, I struck gold. Grandma’s at Orchard Parade...
I have GREAT news for Bakerzin fans. The cafés now serve free water! Oops, that’s not it. (it’s true though.) throughout the month of July, they are selling their macarons at just $0.90 each! If you’ve yet to try out this cute French pastry, this is the perfect opportunity! With...
I have a riddle for you. What’s crispy on the outside, chewy and moist on the inside, and resembles cute little buns? Here, I’ll give you a hint: they come in a plethora of irresistible colours and flavours! Okay, just one last clue. They are French! If macaron is the...

Lately, I’ve been paying many visits to Bakerzin. The seafood pasta had me hooked from the very first bite and since then, I couldn’t help craving for it! I have been encouraged to go for the desserts too, more specifically their best-selling warm chocolate cake. Mind you, this ain’t just...
If I could, I would name this tree Starry-Eyed Surprise. How very fitting, isn’t it? I totally love the stars on this one. Photo by My friend Allan This starry tree can be spotted outside Paragon. It looks magnificent using just the most basic decor – stars, and only stars....
