Wild Honey

Pat & Peichin

On 7th April, Peichin and I arranged to meet for dinner in town. On arrival at Paragon, we were wondering where to proceed for dinner. Peichin wanted an exciting place which I gave her that look. Guess she had a long day at work. Having been to most of the food places in Paragon I suggested Wild Honey situated at Mandarin Gallery. I visted the place last year with my dance kakis. Hence this was my second visit while it is the first time for Peichin. She loves the place. We were saying in future we could try more on the desserts.

Wild Honey is located at #03-02 at Mandarin Gallery, this rustic cosy place serves different types of breakfast. Named for the countries they originated in, the various delicious breakfast food is served.

Peichin with Natures Remedy ( priced at $6)

Yes the perfect drink for Pat's throat Nature Remedy, a honey drink that is brewed for over 6 hours. We each had a glass. It was refreshing and the cinnamon (looks like a cigar), added to the flavour to the drink.

Mexican @ $18 I ordered the Mexican dish - A hearty breakfast burrito with scrambled eggs, breakfast potatoes, black beans served with salsa, guacamole and sour cream. On first glance, it looked like the american version of Popiah. The chef was generous with the serving of the scrambled egg. Love this dish.

Taking a break after dinner

An enjoyable evening with my good pal. Yap, check out more on this blog as we venture to more places. Good company and good food, I am thankful for my great friends.

Chatterbox

Located at Mandarin Orchard, Chatterbox Coffeehouse is a place where I have been having my meals with my mum and friends for the past few months. Thanks to eat@maritus card by OCBC Titanium card, for 2 people, the main courses are at 50% discount. Such a good deal, too good to be missed. All good deals have an expiry date, so is my card, which expired on 31 March 2011. On 28 March, Eunice and I visited Chatterbox for dinner. Eunice wanted to try the chicken rice, hence after coordination, we managed to fix a day to catch up for dinner.

Chicken Rice -just posing with the food

Chicken Rice priced at $23.80

Eunice with her chicken rice meal

Known for the chicken rice at Chatterbox, the chicken is ever tender and delicious. The rice is smooth and the soup heightens the taste of the dish. The 3 sauces is a must when eating the chicken rice - ginger, chilli and soya sauce. For me the chicken rice at chatterbox is one of the nicest dishes that I have tasted.

Pat with her Lobster Laksa

My favourite dish at Chatterbox

I was first introduced to the lobster laksa when I attended a cornell networking session at Chatterbox coffeehouse in 2010. We were given a set meal which comprised of chicken rice, laksa and a drink. Delightful ambience with hoteliers hosted by Tan Kim Seng (President of Meritus Hotels & Resorts).

Priced at $32, the lobster is meaty and fresh. The gravy is apportion nicely and it blends with the laksa. The eggs adds to the flavour to the dish.

Laksa & Chicken Rice - @50% discount

Desserts @ 50% discount

We ended our dinner with desserts. This was the first time I was having the Chendol priced at $10. Rich in sweetness and generous ingredients in our drinks.

Hence, thanks for the food memories at Chatterbox. I may include the other food that I have tasted at Chatterbox and the friends who have joined me for a meal.

Modestos & Coffee Club - Dance Dinner Diary (Nov 2010)

Cream Bistro

Tucked in a cosy corner at Pacific Plaza #01-04/05/06, Cream Bistro was the place I headed for lunch after my hair cut on 26 March 2011, a Saturday.

For a 4 course set meal priced at $9.90, it was value for money. I opted for the western set.

Cream & Mushroom soup with garlic bread

The soup was thick and warm. A refreshing feeling I had after drinking the soup.

Tea was served before the main course

Fish & Chips

Breaded Fish was what I had for main course. It was delicious. Mixed with the chilli sauce, it just enhanced the flavour of the dish.

Mango Pudding

Dessert for the day was mango pudding. Delightful and creamy, just the right dish to end off lunch.

After lunch, I headed off to Novena church and then to CSC for mass in the evening.

From Japan With Love - Flora Alpine Scenic Route

My trip to Japan from 12-18 June 2010 was indeed a blessed one. With all meals provided, fantastic places to stay, lovely scenery and great company, I am truly thankful. It was great travelling with Gina, my former colleague from SJI. This is my 6th time travelling with her. Really fun. I really love the japanese food there, especially the crab and the green tea ice-cream. Yap, check out the snacks i bought back for my family. For me, the highlight has to be the Alpine scenic route and Tokyo Disneyland. Thank you for the memories Japan. Will definitely be back to visit the rest of the places of Japan.
