Trick Eye Museum Singapore

Finally, the last draft that I haven't posted. This was mid of last year when my Twin Brother, Mom and her friend visited Singapore for a short holiday. Trick Eye was ok, nothing spectacular. Or maybe it's meant more for kids? Great photos though. And most importantly, we had time to bond together. Enjoy the photos!

Windowsill in the Woods, Jalan Besar

It took me so long to post this review that they already moved to a new place haha! This happened sometime mid of last year. They have now relocated to Soo Chow Walk (scroll down for contact number and address). This place was packed, to think it was in an obscure area. I have yet to visit the new location though. Enjoy the photos!

Antoinette, Penhas Road

Ugh, I've had this post as a draft for many months now. This happened mid of last year I think. The great thing about living in the city fringe area is there are a lot of nearby hole-in-the-wall establishments. Antoinette is a pretty famous desserts place and there is one a few bus stops away from our place. Make sure to try their signature dessert called "Antoinette". Enjoy the photos!

Orchard Hotel Singapore

This staycation at the Orchard Hotel also happened in July of 2015, a week after our St. Regis hotel staycation hehe. I was going through a rough phase at work that time so my brother was like in Singapore almost every week for a few times haha.

The St. Regis Hotel, Singapore

Super late post. This happened in  July of 2015 when my Mom and her friend came to Singapore for a holiday when their trip to Korea was cancelled due to the MERS virus that time.

Hello! It's me!

Well hello! I've been wondering if after all these years you'd like to meet? Hehehe. Don't we love that Adele song? Anyway, it's been 7 long months since my last blog. So many things happened and I almost left Singapore but thank God I am still here.

The Fat Cow

Just thinking about Fat Cow makes me salivate haha. We finally got to try this famous steak restaurant early this month. We were ecstatic that they were on the Entertainer app! Plus, we were celebrating our anniversary so there's our excuse to finally eat here haha.

Tokyo, Japan

YEYYYY!! I am so happy that my blog is finally up to date! hehehe. Anyway, I made an impulsive decision to go to Tokyo last labor day weekend in May. It wasn't really super last minute but I only planned this maybe 3-4 weeks prior to the trip, when I would usually plan months ahead.

I booked Singapore Airlines as the fare was justifiably reasonable given that it was a long weekend. Plus, the timing was perfect as I left Thursday night and arrived Friday early morning then back to Singapore on Sunday 5pm. That meant I had almost 3 full days for sightseeing and leisure. I was going solo on this trip so 3 days is enough for me, but I definitely need to go back to Japan one day to explore more.

Jewel Cafe and Bar, Rangoon Road

We usually plan where to eat on what's available on Entertainer app in the area we are in. We recently discovered Jewel Cafe on Rangoon Road and I must say this is now my favorite hole-in-the-wall cafe in Singapore.

Osteria Mozza, Marina Bay Sands

We stuffed ourselves silly at the Gelato World Tour so we decided to have something salty and savory for dinner haha. I've always wanted to try Osteria Mozza by the famous chef Mario Batali so I was very excited about this.

Rochester Cafe, Rochester Park

For foodies like me and Alfian, Entertainer app is really a God send. You get 1 for 1 meals so you really end up saving a lot on restaurant food. We decided to try out Rochester Cafe one weekend in mid-March.

Boracay, Philippines (February 2015)

Right before I started my new job in March, I decided to go on a 5-day trip to Boracay with my Mom. Luckily, SilkAir now flies direct to Kalibo from Singapore which makes it really convenient.

The Westin Singapore Hotel

It was mixed feelings quitting my job at SAP as the company is really good and the benefits were great. Imagine, in my 6 months stay with the company I got to travel to the USA twice, Kuala Lumpur and Manila. Unfortunately, I really didn't like the job. I guess it's true that no matter how much you get paid or how good the company is, it all boils down to job satisfaction. I was also lucky that SAP didn't have a training bond for all the money they spent on me for the overseas trainings #sorrynotsorry hehe. Anyway, that was that.

Boston, Massachusetts USA

In end-September 2014, I had the chance to travel to Boston, Massachusetts for the first time. Again, this was for training purposes as well. I actually previously worked for SAP. That company has loads of money. We went to Boston just to attend 2 days of training so I was in the US for a total of only 4 days. Upon arrival in the USA, the immigration officer joked and said "can't your company just give you a piece of paper or something for training?" hahaha.

San Francisco, California USA

(L-R) Myself, Alfian and ex-colleague Allan

The last time I've been to the US was in 1999 when my father sought for medical treatment there. So I was so happy that after around 15 years, I had the chance to go back there last Aug 2014 when I went for training with my ex-company.

Mystical Cambodia

In May last year, a month after our UAE trip, we went to Cambodia with my flatmates. Above is myself enjoying the welcome drink at the Raffles Hotel in Phnom Penh hehe. We can never afford to stay at the Raffles Hotel in Singapore so since it was super affordable there, off we went.

Abu Dhabi, UAE

We drove to Abu Dhabi, around an hour or so from Dubai, to go to the majestic Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. Breathtaking is an understatement. The mosque was really a sight to behold!

California Pizza Kitchen, Forum Shopping Mall (2)

I remember giving CPK a bad review in my first post about the restaurant, click here. I don't remember eating here again since that time and that was several years ago. Since they are part of the Entertainer app, we ate here again in January of this year and I must say the food and the service has greatly improved.

In fact, I used to eat quite often at CPK back in the Philippines as they used to be very famous there. I don't know anymore if they are still at Glorietta Mall in Makati.
