Island Creamery!!!

we headed over to Serene Centre after exam and the boys and girls in class lovedddddd island creamery's ice cream (is it coz its the nearest of is it really that "gluey"?) yes~ they offer the not-so-common ice cream you cant find elsewhere like Pula Hitam, Tau Tarik etc~ yes, the unconventional offerings of ice cream which yes yes yes, agreed, nice~ tho i'm your usual dessert-guy BUT! :x the cakes is super sinful and nice~ not for the faint-hearted... :D

Azabu Soba choco ice cream with choco cream wrapped in crepe

i had a craving for ice cream suddenly! oops!~ :x Azabu had a promo for i think its new product that they just launched(coz i never see b4)... its only $3!!!! lol~ of coz the ice cream portion is pretty small but eating the entire crepe will definite have an effect on your stomach! lol~

i think there were 4 types of different crepes to choose from and i slyly picked the chocolate one with a long name which i cant remember what it is! :p yes! lovely and thumbs up again for Azabu Soba! nice!~ had a simple dinner at the nearby foodcourt jus next to them! lol~ i was craving for more ice cream after having this! oops~ :x

Ichiban Boshi

above* Half Curry chicken udon

*pork miso soup (ichiban prides themselves for their miso)

*curry chicken katsu with rice

*salmon bowl

unagi rice

we were here celebrating Zhenhui's bday and it was my 2nd visit here but 1st dining experience here. cut the story short... i was browsing through the menu and couldnt make up my mind on what to eat. i was feeling hungry and greedy! =x the menu looked appetizing but sadly, im not a sushi person coz i don'y like raw food... :( in the end i went for the curry udon + pork miso soup which was really worth it. Zhao's curry pork katsu looked really delicious and i was tempted to "steal" his food :p

the most worth was the salmon bowl + unagi bowl set. it comes with chawamushi, a bowl of miso and i think a plate of cut fruitsa all for think $18.99++. i think the menu is fairly-priced and the restaurant is well-placed with good ambience. a posh style of dining without having to feel a pinch on one's wallet. i highly recommend it to sushi lovers although i wont come back often given that i dont have a strong liking for raw and/or seafood. but highly recommended place. they're available also at Suntec City mall! :)

Yamazaki Bakery

*was busy preparing for exam that was a lag between blogs. but everything is back to normal and i'll continue to bring blog entries faithfully every few days again! :) *

eclair basket
strawberry cream puff
i love creamy stuff although its ridiculously unhealthy and contains loads of unsaturated fat! but... who cares! why deprive of oneself of the simple pleasures of life?? :x i think many people disagrees, faithfully promoting healthy living/lifestyles whatever.... YES! whatever to you all out there! coz you're sure to miss out tons out there! :p

i love the strawberry cream puff! the amazing part is that, the cream contains some of the strawberry's love in 'em and it will make your day simply savouring them... i think Jap people emphasize alot on healthy living and thus, the cream comes in a "just-nice" portion and you wont feel sinful after having it! the chocolate eclair was just so-so but its very cheap coz it comes in a basket of 2 going for a mere $2? @,@ fantasticalicious!

pls get them because i think japanese pastries are considered top-tier quality... i would love to go to tokyo and sit inside their pastisseries and have a slice of love and people-watch.... wonderful... the thought of it brings me to a state of Nirvana~ :x Enjoy! i cant remember the price of the cream puff though but its <$2. Grab them! NOW! :x

Secret Recipe 3-in-1 edition

white chocolate macademia

Mango delight
buttersotch pecan

"gluttony is a sin... god thy sinned... forgiveth thy once more"

how can one resist the temptations of early pleasures when the price is halved? i want to be forgiven please..... (the pics speak for itself already?)

these cakes are simply to be adored and savoured upon... i want MORE! this is considered my second attempt on Secret recipes and they wow you in another aspects in terms of texture and their sponge. Art, I would call their sponges because, sponges do make your tongue go boring if overdone. nuff said!

they're all nice except the Mango delight which i think its left too long... i din think twice ordering it despite it was the last piece on display since i din manage to eat it the prev time during its promotion and i should have known better :( nvm, there's always a next time to try a Fresh piece. the nicest of 'em all is white choc macademia! lovely~ :)

Genting-Mmm Yum Yum Bak Kut Teh

was away in malaysia sometime ago during the wkends. it is nice to haf a short getaway anytime, away from all the hectic lifestyles and tight schedules. i love it when i can literally forget everything about work, studies and most importantly, forget who i really am. Taking a seat back from all that awaits you is simply breathtaking.

anyway, most importantly, i managed to try this expensive bak kut teh at genting. i had my doubts although i read about it coz it was a tourist location and things tend to be overpriced and poor in quality. regardless, during the wait for the bus down to KL, i decided to try it coz i know i will "regret" it later if i don't :p

yes, it is nice because although u see that the frivolous effort inside out the kitchen. and God! im paying for the goods & service taxes! yes... call me the typical cheapskate singaporean :x its very cold and thus the yummilicious-ness of it. overall, not bad will be a good rating and its still ridiculously overpriced though you've to accept it since its a tourist attraction. have to try traditional bak kut teh in JB which my friends raved about to conclude malaysia's effort :)
