Choupinette ... It's a YES

I simply love brunch.... Where I can have breakfast and lunch at one go ;-) 
Choupinette is a small cosy French cafe, located along bukit timah. 
Note: closed on Monday. 

Inside the cafe: bread, anyone ? 

Egg Royale set: Toast is crispy, the whole combination is awesome. 
I will go back for more. 
Comes with juice and hot drink.

Chouchou's set: toast with chicken. 
Comes with drink and desert.

Creme brûlée: not too sweet. I like ...

Here's my only buy during the recent hongkong trip - a pandora charm that carry the word "福". It means blessing, good fortune, bliss. 

Why this out of hundreds of charm?
The bracelet and "present" charms were gifts from good friends. 
The beautiful bow was a Xmas pressie. 
Each piece has its special meaning and meant alot to me. So the 福 charm reminds me that I am very fortune to have family and friends; and I know I will follow this bliss and friendship for life! 

And why get the charm in HK, not SGP? 
Because I am on a trip with Foo. We survive the first year of marriage and still manage to travel frequently. 
Importantly, I married a Foo which sounds like 福. 

I have a bagful of 福... Yeah

Taichung park

After a whole week of hectic work schedule, I chilled out at the Taichung park today. 


After, I got myself a Starbucks green tea blended and enjoyed the free live music. 

Having a break from work is really GOOD !!!

Singapore flyer street food corner

Usually we associate bad food in touristy place but this "food court" at Singapore flyer is surprising pleasant. But it costs us $51.50! Have your ever spent more than 10 buck for hawker food?? 
Here we are: 

Satay Bee Hoon: 
Small portion but very yummy.
The presentation does not give it much justice... But once you start eating, you will love it. 

La La: too sweet and starchy. 
NEXT....

BBQ stingray: This beats the ones at east coast hawker centre. 
Good !

Oyster omelette: Generous serving of oyster. Good for sharing as it might be too much to have it alone.

Ice ball: traditional desert
No way we going to skip this. 
SWEET!!!! 

Sweet treats for takeaway: worth $13!!!  (Probably just $3 many years back)
We must be crazy to buy these lots but it brings back the childhood memories. 
These days, Most kids are unlikely to appreciate these.

Gone case with cupcake

This is my x attempts with cupcake. 
Another failure!!! 

Paid bucks to learn trick from the baking class but it turns out to be another failure. 
The class was badly organise with lack of equipment and instruction. 
Times where we mistaken baking soda as flour and salt as sugar. 
No labelling on containers! Sucks :(

Super surprise :D

Haven't seen the ladies for the longest time and finally, we manage to meet up over lunch and tea break. 

We had a decent lunch at "la villa" (Italian restaurant).
Wonderful food and it's my first time trying "angel hair" pasta. 
I like it as it is like thicker version of beehoon. Hehee. 

Here's the yummy dishes:

My birthday just passed but the ladies still got me a wonderful present - A pandora bracelet!!!
I am like a kid who received a candy and will love to yell out in joy. 
Of course I didn't as we are in a public place.. Need to watch my behaviour. 
Thank you ladies.. I love you all... Muack. 
Haha :)

Little part 1 cafe

Little part 1 is a cosy cafe located at a hidden corner of Thomson road.
("Hidden" by my definition as it is located behind the main road and within private homes cluster).

The cafe environment is really cosy and homely.
Be it Order a coffee and read a book or,
Dinning with friends.. this is a suitable place.

We ordered:
1. Buffalo wings
Not quite our tasting as chicken didn't taste fresh and the vinegar was relatively strong.
2. Stewed beefs with bread and organic salad.
This dish is yummy and portion is enough for 2 pax.
According to the menu, this is only available during weekend.
