You'll never go wrong with this formula.

Ms Chithra is rite..

Life is full of choices...
many have no choice, some have many choices, some dun even have a choice.


so what happens when you get choices?
It sucks.


Cox you're afraid of what hapens after that choice.
You may have wished you haven made that choice in the first place.
If you could turn back time...


Cowards.


Who Im i talking about?


ME.




My independence is not as strong as it seems.


Its like drinking a cup of black coffee.
How do you know that there is sugar in it just by looking at the superficial surface?
you cant.
you need to stir it, smell it, taste and appreciate the coffee the way it was really made.


Moral of the story? *COFFEE=HUMANS


So, MDIS or SMU....
hmmmm

A long unwritten diary of mine...


Its been a long time,
since i last wrote in this special personal blog of mine.
been posting food reviews...


today,
finally got a chance to write in my blog.
its 840am, ngee ann poly gym.
The stereo is playing and im all alone here today.
The front desk staff will be late.


NP's having their examinations so,
naturally, the gym has become like a ghost town.
oh well......


rite, back to the topic.
whats happening to me some people asked?
well...
"working lor"


maybe it has become a habit to work.
day time @ gymwerkz,
seriously, not much stuff for me to do around here...
or maybe im just not interested or didn know wat to do.


no im not complaining.
but pondering and thinking that fitness instructor may not be my cup of tea.


however, i managed to sit in for a aerobics instructor examination practical yesterday.
oh my, being an aerobics instructor "looks" easy.
but its not.
.....
When to MDIS UniCampus as well.
to check out the Degree in Business Convention and event Tourism.
Some people encouraged me to follow my dreams,
others, are skeptical of my choice and advice otherwise.


well.. im still saving up,
so i got half a year or so to sort it out.


The sales person @ MDIS said sth which is quite true, he said;
"NTU and NUS may still be the preferred choice, due to their long reputation and history, but times are changing and companies are looking for people who know how to work, and not merely but a piece of paper. Paper qualifications gives you a head start ahead of others, but its your skills and abilities that ultimately determines whos the leader..."


i got not idea how many students were impressed by these 'marketing' words,
but at least, it does make sense and quite inspiring i must say...


called sis after that,
but i guess she's nt in the mood, really hope she feels better...
life is unpredictable,
losing a gd friend is like losing your arm.
nothing to assist you...


really, wish my sis feels better soon.
to all my biker friends, pls pls ride with caution.
the devil road shows no mercy for the reckless...
and maybe, the tired...
Live life to the fullest, relax at times,
if ya tired rest, if ya hungry, eat.
nobody forcing you to live how you live.


sounds chim...
but like i say, its my personal diary.
i wanna voice out my thoughts...


its nearing 9am.. still nobody.. oh man,
how to survive til 5pm like tat..
den after that , its off to wine hut.. til 2am.
piangz.
but at least, i enjoy working at wine hut and nobody force me to work. hahaz.
btw loretta birthday coming soon,
wanna wish her birthday shall be an enjoyable one.


alrite, enough of naggin.
feels old. esp when ya 20..
ARgh...
bye !

A Heavenly created indie Cafe serving happy desserts...


Finally,
A indie cafe that had desserts that made me smile throughout the meal.
=]
ITs a very small indie cafe @ Bugis.
Opp Bras Basah Complex.


Ambience was nice and cosy.
Its like stepping inside a setting like those cafes in Hollywood movies...
People are very warm and sincere.
at least i can tell from those eyes..


Greeted by friendly servers and the aroma of mixed coffee and sandwhich just makes you feel like starting the day afresh, even though i entered the cafe at night..


They only have sandwhich as main course and each is prepared by the chefs trained in Australia and the US.


Mine was the Pulled Rosted Pork sandwhiched with chinese chicken salad.
its was good i cleared my plate pretty fast. hahas.
Dou dou ordered the same, except hers was with no salad of cox.


the soup was alrite. we ordered mushroom fennel.


i was sitted just beside the dessert counter and imgaine my great distraction as i kept staring at the dessert selections already making up my mind which ones to choose..
finally, i took the red velvet and on the great suggestion from the staff, we ordered the Earl Grey Teacakes as well...


The teacake at first wasnt my obvious choice because it looks very ordinary and i didn feel like trying sth "common".
Guess wat???


I WAS WRONG.
The Earl Grey Teacake was AMAZING.
very nice fragrance and gd texture,
melts in your mouth with chewy tea leaves lingering inside the mouth...
Very VERY good.....


the velvet red cake didn disappoint too,
it was heavenly man...


Goes well with my hot mocha..
ahhhhh...
!!!
I cant wait to try the rest of the desserts...
see?
nothing beats home made delicacies.
its very different from 'manufactured' cakes at coffee bean and blah blah blah..


These home bred baker talents really made my day!


Plus, the cafe is really a gd concept.
you can donate to children charity *they dun have service charge btw, u are encouraged to give the extra cents to charity.
And they have different cake selections everyday because they take in cakes from bakers who bakes it at their own home. They encourage other bakers to try and sell their creation over there as well...


sometimes... money dosen make the world go round..
ITs the people.
And most often , thru FOOD.
heehee.



This is the logo and Signboard

Dont you think just by looking at this makes you wanna buy EVERYthing inside??!! its all homemade by our home grown hidden talented bakers =]

This Southern Red Velvet Cake Blew Me Off Totally man... the red sponge filling inside is heavenly with the ultra smooth cream cheese layered on it... GOSH! A really die die must try !

"How i spent my weekend..."



RECOMMENDATION OF THE WEEK


HOUSE @ Dempsey Road.
I've read a lot about it on magazines and newspapers..
finally, im there to give my personal review...
HOUSE BARRACK CAFE.


Ambience: Thumbs UP!
Day time, its like lunch in an modern barrack building with old sch feel.
At night, Love the Alfresco Dinning area! nature outdoors with comfortable sofa and cushion seatings and great candle lightings. =] perfect for a date actually haha!


Food: didn get to try their main course cox i arrive at 11pm and kitchen is closed.
but lucky me as i tried their famous desserts.
OMG.
gorgeously sweet ^^
The macadamia pie dessert is a killer man.
To satisfy a dessert lover like me? PERFECT.


But their drinks are sadly so-so.


Service: Prompt service, but partly because its at night and not much customers are around... very young staff so some may give "Da Attitude lor!"
'WATeva' kind..


DEn headed to "Wine NetWork"
For wine session.
haha.
Wine was great.
Cheese was gd.
But i feel the place is a bit small and not suitable for dates and small talks.
Its a bit noisy inside and cramped area.
service wise, gd recommendation from the staff haha.
Overall experience @ dempsey rd?
GD, but could have been better =]
would love to head down there again though ...
til den...

Great food...great company =]

Me, Kong mama and Sista Jane outside House @ Dempsey Rd.

tada..

Cheers to a relatively decent bottle of south Africa Pinotage red wine and a rather huge portion of cheese platter.. plus extra crackers and vegetable sticks all thanks to jane *hint hint haha a male server was captured by ms jane's beauty haha

My birthday cakes from e front desk staff awww... and my fav chocolate flavour some more..AWWwww haha

Cafe No.1: Corduroy Cafe
Location: Vivo City, #01-106, (Beside Gloria Jeans Cafe)



Introduction:
This is a Sophiscated cafe. Enough said. Heavily decorated in European, Vintage Furnishings, You'll see cafe goers with their 'LVs', 'Pradas' and office people or families decked in Polos.


But, Frankly, the price is OK wat. Why do you think i step inside to eat in the first place? The food, the view over looking harbour front river. GOsh.
My best place to read my straits times newspaper haha 0_o. Their specialty is their desserts! yesh! desserts! cakes, cookies, pies, muffins. All 'Ang Moh' desserts you want it, they have it! And its not as crowded as starbucks and GLoria Jeans esp since Vivo is always PACKED...


Best cafe to impress that date ya brining to vivo =] *dun say i didn recommend to my friends ar...



Cafe No.2 : Cafe Oliv
Location: Cafe Oliv at Unit 220, East Coast Road Singapore 428917. Tel: 6344-3114





Introduction: This pure white unintimidating setting is a friendly environment for friends chill outs and easy gatherings =] Food may a bit pricey but, its worth while since it taste gd! Location also a bit off, cos its at East Coast Road, some where east side, near joo chiat. I chance upon this place while exploring joo chiat food stalls and been recommending ppl to go there =] Heard the young aspiring chef is from SHATEC.. another chef from there.. Miss Clarity Cafe Chef also from there i think...


A Sneak Preview of their Food Menu! I Strongly recommend the Soft Shell Crab! A to Die for Kind! haha.


Cafe No.3 : Hemisphere Cafe
Location: OG Orchard Point, Level 2





Introduction:
Its hidden inside this Buildin where u least expected...modern setting fuse with cottage style furnitures. I like it because its non-crowded on weekdays or on most days, maybe becos its soo hidden, it has not been discovered yet. Very affordable prices, with cappucino going for $3, and tea set at $5 plus ... just look at my scone set man! fantastic! Its @ level 2 OG Building, come out from escalator turn left and walk straight you'll see the 'Hemisphere Cafe' Signboard hidden behind the stack of clothes.. *its that Ulu ...

If not, just look up as you are crossing the road from centrepoint to OG and you'll see the glass transparent cafe on the level 2 and walk towards there lor! That's how i found out about it...


A cushion comfort sofa seat, a small wooden table, a very cottage furnishing with a modern art twist in this cafe... Plus, the tower view of the bustling orchard road is a BOnus! =]

Creative Presentation for their Scones! nvm it tastes so-so, the presentation just ROX!


Thats all for my Cafe Journey.. For now... If you got any nice cafes or gd food to recommend, PLS CONTACT me!! i do believe there are still lots more to visit!=]
