Tim's is a cozy western and Nepalese restaurant and cafe and I feel that it is quite popular among the residents and office workers. The menu resembled Jack's Place but at a way lower price. Affordable!   I was so tied between in their monthly promotion's Pacific Clam and Squid Aglio Olio and their set meal which is only $13.90! So friggin cheap! Set meals comes with a soup of the day, main, drink and a dessert! NO GST some more! Soup of the day was mushroom soup and it was so good! Not diluted or curdled at all, the consistency of the soup is just nice and full of fresh mushrooms that I can really taste and bite into! Unlike some of the substandard soups that I tried before and couldn't even see any mushrooms inside, Tim's surely did not disappoint! The picture might not look as appetizing as I changed the vegetables to fries not knowing that there are potatoes too,  kinda regretted not having any greens. On a side note, my grilled fish is tasted...

Recess week is soon over in the blink of an eye, since I did not have the chance to go out much during the week, I had to make the most of my Sunday by cafe hopping to get my ice cream fix before school reopens.  Finally decided to go to Creamier to satisfy my ice cream cravings after wasting a lot of time researching and deciding on where to go.  I had heard of Creamier for quite some time but did not have the chance to visit the cafe. Finally, I had the chance to try it, in this nice little ice cream parlour among the heart of Toa Payoh neighbourhood. It was quite packed when we first arrived, but the crowd soon cleared as most of them finished their desserts around the same time. I realised that the people finished their ice creams and waffles pretty fast, so I thought it must be really good. Creamier did really well in their table management as each table is given a table tracker which will silently vibrate to indicate the order is done, and the next momen...

Who says Sunplaza is still one of the worst suburban shopping malls in Singapore? With so many food offerings in the newly revamped and improved Sunplaza, it definitely make me want to visit the mall more often now.  At the basement, one can find several small food joints which include quick bites and even small food outlets with seating areas. One of the dessert store that caught my eye is COyOrO, a small shop offering Thailand inspired fried ice cream rolls. It really brings back memories of the ice creams I had in Bangkok.  Ice Manias Fried Ice Cream Rolls- Siam Square The fried ice cream rolls trend is actually started back in Thailand where some genius ice cream maker decided to have ice cream in a cooler way by having it in rolls instead. I really applaud that genius idea, not only it bring about a new trend, it also make the ice cream look pretty and appetizing with bits of flavors in it. One can also get to customize their toppings and get to enjoy a '...

We happened to be around Toa Payoh for a board games warehouse sale at Storhub, hence we decided to check out JQ Chef Cafe to try out their Salted Caramel Waffles, one of their hot sellers. Since the cafe owner is a chef, I was quite surprised at the reasonable pricing. However, I was quite glad that is affordable so I get to try out.  Salted Caramel Waffles: Topped with 2 scoops of salted caramel ice cream and fruit salsa I would say that the waffles are quite crispy and everything with salted caramel that I love so much would certainly add points to it.  The cafe is conveniently located in the neighbourhood of Toa Payoh, and I would surely return for their brunch menu. 

Happy Midweek everybody! I finally got to try the highly raved Bingsu at Nunsongyee Korean Dessert Cafe who have the softest shaved ice. Located directly opposite Bugis Junction, it is really convenient for those who want to get their Bingsu fix after shopping at Bugis. Guess what? It's a good place for those who might crave for Bingsu in the middle of the night.  The entire shop house of 3 storeys is owned by Nunsongyee, giving me the feeling of a bingsu shop in Myeongdong, Korea. Sorry for the shadow of my silhouette, most of the pricing for the bingsus are priced around $15.90. We sat at the second storey since it is self service and we had to collect our orders at the first floor when the buzzer ring. Even though it is night time, the store is still quite populated and we have to wait around 10 minutes before our order is ready.   Finally! Our mixed berries bingsu, the snow ice melted as soon as I put into my mouth, its really like tasting snow, flav...

Woke up late today due to the fatigue from last night HHN5 saga at Universal Studios, the scareactors did not scare me as much as THE QUEUE for THE MRT and we took 2 hours to escape  The ridiculously long queue which took us inside waterworks theatre and outside then inside again -.- Good work USS for the long snaking queue and kudos to us for surviving 2 hours believing that it will soon be our turn, so much for paying $50 for #cheapthrills to queue and get scared by humans Fast track to 5 hours before we were stuck in this situation Geared up in our N95 breathable masks that we bought specially for the haze that never seem to go away Since it is still early at the time we reached harbourfront, we decided to walk around Vivo City and have dinner first. Deciding on where to eat is always a chore for us, we walked from level 2 to level 1 to basement before going back to level 2 to Paik's Bibimbap to eat the Bibimbap that I wanted to try This may no...

After walking one round along Haji Lane, we settled down at Choo Choo Chicken for dinner. Choo Choo Chicken like 4 Fingers, sells Korean Fried Chicken but after trying their soy chicken wings, I can conclude that Choo Choo Chicken is the winner. Their chicken is fried fresh and the soy sauce is not as salty like 4 Fingers, but carry some sweetness to it. We ordered Half Soy, Half Crispy for the 8-piece wings.  Sis called for Garlic Chicken Tenders which are not bad too We decided to order another round of tenders in spicy as we were still not full. Second round:  I was knocked out by the spiciness as soon as I bite into the tenders, but after fighting with the spice in my mouth, I managed to finish 2 out of 8 of the tenders. Cousin was laughing and jeering at me and sis for not being able to handle the spiciness, however, he too feel the burning sensation in his mouth at the third tender. He soon surrendered by downing his Hoegaarden to extingui...
