FOOD - PARIS BAGUETTE

P/BA

HA, the moment I saw it has landed in Singapore wisma shopping centre, I was so happy! Like finally I can just eat it in Singapore. Need not,  just have to wait when I am in Korea!

It has got a big number of outlets in Seoul, basically everywhere I walked I see one of this outlets! The outlets in Seoul, produced beautifully created full cakes a well and taste really good! yummmmsssss................. so don't forget to buy the cakes when you are in Seoul to try!

Well, so I went right down to the one located at wisma, with my mum and friends... but the pricing , I kind of feel its a little bit expensive compared to Seoul, but nevertheless its still worth going there for your tea-time break!



cakesssss



The kiwi and the orange juice, is from the fresh fruit itself. The fruit ice shaving is also worth trying, top with many fruits and the yogurt is also awesome, a must try!


Lastly! The few choices of salads, made freshly by the wonderful chefs!


So remember to add this place to your list of hanging out for tea!

TRAVEL - PENANG


Penang! Is a city in Malaysia...
Just went there once, and I really loved it !

Its a place filled with beautiful seas, great variety of food and friendly people.
Penang, one thing not to missed, is the awesome food that they have there..
My favourite is the Penang Laksa, never had it so good before, until I tasted it in Penang.
And remember to buy lots of tau sau piah back!
The hotel, that we stayed is 4 star, " Evergreen Laurel Hotel" Located at a really convenient location, gurney drive, down the streets is filled with shopping centre and many many yummilious foodies..
Do check out Penang Hill, great place to have some good fresh air, with a breathe-taking scenery! Another good place to check it out, is the Pernarakan Museum.
Airasia flies there everyday, at a low price, do book earlier to get a cheaper ticket!




 
At the Peranakan Museum...





 

Check out this brand, yummy tau sau piah!

This what the word 'friends' meant to me... 
My urge to write a post on friends~~ Its my way of saying a big thank you to my wonderful friends out there.

I am proud to say, I have really good friends, to be there for me in times of need!
A Partner will leave you, but your friends will never leave you!
Staying true to your friends no matter what is the most important.

When I was at the lowest moment of my life, my wonderful friends stood by me, lend me a helping hand and pull me up. I have never regret acknowledging them as my friends! Near or far, I know we will always be this close, being there for each other! And also leave no one behind!

This post is dedicated to my lovable friends! I do not have to name you all, as I believe , You know who you are!

LIFE - ARMY

Every Singaporean son.. Sounds familiar? Guess to all Singaporean, it is!

Today 13 march 2013 , was the day that I went together to send my friend brother off to army , off the shores of Singapore , Pulau Tekong , BMTC.... That's the military school to train the recruits.
Its my first time there, as I have never send any boys off to army before. I would say its a eye-opener scene. We were shown a small portion of the base, the recruits bunk room and witness them taking the oath , also we get to try the food, ha ha , so called food tasting and were allowed to take pictures.




the army food, that we taste! yes its nothing fancy or nice to shout about! But I can say it is very healthy with little salt added, it is what I guess suitable for the boys in army. Don't know if I was too hungry , I finish the whole plate of food.



The view of the BMTC from a distance at Pulau Tekong.

we were allowed to take photso with him, he is wearing the full set of what they should be wearing! So cool!

Had a very interesting and a tired day! But it was a great feeling sending a boy to army! Feeling a little sad, but excited for my friend brother. Although it may be heart-wrenching for some parents, but it is really the start of a great future and training for the boys!

Recently went and watch the movie 'Ah boys to men" , it has given us a really good view of what army seem like, what our brothers, fathers, sons, friends or boyfriends are or have went through in the army. This movie has also given us a good laugh! Those who have not catch this movie, get the DVDs and watch it! You will not regret it!

Proud of the boys of Singapore!

Korea - Seou - Yummy Foodies~~

Lets Eat To Our Heart Contends~~~

Seoul is a food paradise? Oh yes! To me it is!!!!!
BBQ, Kimchi soup, dumplings, fruits and many more!
I would say the quality of the food serve there is awesome, working in the kitchen myself, I too have very high expectation of the food I eat....
Pricing, wise is also very affordable and reasonable!
Portion, woo lalalala! BIG! ha ha !
Please try to eat as much as you can there, I am writing and missing the food now! Oh my~~~~


Two of my favourite ice-cream!


Street food! only W3000.... yummilious to the max!


don't forget to buy and try the wine of Korea! cheap max, I brought this at only w1650 and it taste good!

Well, if you have the time, its rather a good idea to go down and visit the supermarket in Seoul! Filled with many fresh items to seek out!, Strawberries, persimmon, orange, pears! And if you are staying in a apartment with a kitchen, it will be so nice to buy some food back to your apartment and whipped up a good dinner! Their salad are so fresh! Trust me , you will be amazed... I always visit the Lotte Supermarket at Seoul station, its just above the station! There are any small supermarkets around Seoul, depending on the location you are staying though~~

Everywhere in Seoul, there is bound to be a place which serve good food, I am never hungry when I am there, I will always just walked into any place that sell food, and try out. Don't be scared, shy or worried about the language barrier you may have, the people there are pretty friendly and helpful ((:
Don't let language barrier stop you from exploring the wonders of the food they have there!

A place filled with awesome theme cafes, wonderful variety of street food, good and cheap BBQ and sweet fruits! A satisfying place for people who love to eat!!!

Enjoy!!

Korea - Theme Cafes


WOOF Woof woof woof......meow meow meow



There are many may, themes cafes in Korea , Seoul, which in Singapore we don't have ...
Every time when I land in Seoul I need to visit the themes café. The 2 themes café that I loved and must go is, the DOG Café and CAT Café... hmmm interesting right? At there, you just need to pay w8000 and have a cuppa of drink of your choices and you can, play with the furry friends all day long or sit at the table and have a great time catching up with your friends, planning your next destination! Awesome place to check out, if you are a animal lover! There's one dog and cat café located in" myeong-dong" and also in" hongdae" there is a dog café and two cat café. For the cat café, the cats there are well-mannered! Ha ha for the dog café, you got to be a little prepared, as dogs are more rough and rowdy, not as gentle as the cats. But no worries, after a while they will get used to you and come up to you for a cuddle.... There was once I went to a dog café at hongdae, the English cocker pee on my coat... ha ha well, the staff there are nice though, they clean my coat for me on the spot! I don't feel angry at all, as I love animals to he max, so it doesn't matter. Only visit here if you are a really 100% animal lover!!!

meow meow at the cat café in hongdae~~

Animals bring joy and love to us! Cheers!!!
I LOVE DOGS & CATS!!!!!

KoReA -Seoul- NSeoul Tower

Its been sometimes... that I have updated my blog, because of , the crash of my laptop.. Just got a new Sony Vaio... Hopes its going to stay with me long.... ((:

Just came back from Korea, yes its my fifth time there, and I will blog about, a place of interest.
The N Seoul Tower, if you are a frequent Korean drama watcher, you will heard or know of this place. Its a interesting place, best for lovers! Haha, I will definitely bring my partner there. At there you can buy a lock and write the words you want to write and lock it on the tree, the keys have to be return to the people there, this way no one will be able to unlock the , 'so called love lock', well even friends can buy that too. A symbol of locking ones love or friendship... ah interesting isn't it?
Here , you can visit the teddy bear museum and go up to the highest level to have a good view of seoul. There's a restaurant here too. One thing good about coming here is the, package they have, which I found it pretty reasonable, a lunch at the restaurant, teddy bear museum and the observatory tower. which is less then W50,000...



A picture of the tower from below....



the tree full of locks!!!

How awesome! So if you are planning for a trip down to Seoul, don't forget to add this place in! Enjoy!!!
