We'll Tell You - A&W Couple's Blog

ABBEY:  At last we set foot on this waffle house and that day they're offering it at half the price. Yes, you heard it right, Gelare in Suntec City Mall offers half the price for waffles every Tuesdays. I got their chocolate chip waffle and Wilma had the plain one; all for less than 10sgd. Each waffle has whipped cream and of course the syrup. It tastes delicious and very sweet. This is recommended for all who has sweet tooth. WILL:   I am a lover of different breads and pastries and this waffle shop is not exempted. Since I got here in Singapore, I really dreamed of dining in here and that hope ignites more when I saw their 50% off every Tuesdays, hehe.        At last!, for almost two years when we got the chance to dine in here. At their Suntec City branch, we savor its aroma then our order was served. Freshly baked waffles really makes my day! It is not too sweet and yet the taste is amazing. Love it a lot. Sarap! 

ABBEY:  Ravi and Nitin introduced me to this vegan diner at Level 3 of Suntec City Mall. We have tried their samosa and vada pav for 2sgd per pair. Masala tea is at 1.8sgd.  I asked Wilma to try it one time. They are only offering lunch sets by that time. We ordered 2 naan lunch sets (less than 6sgd per meal) along with 3 vegetable side dish each. I like the taste of aloo and daal. When it becomes too spicy for me I munch on the sweet rice crispies and eat again. WILL:   I am a big big fan of naan and prata. I really love those piece of doughs fried then dip to a fish curry sauce. Before going to Hermes exhibit, I asked my husband if we can take some bite in any indian restaurant and then he suggested to go for Pangat. This is located at the 3rd floor of Suntec City near Singapore Post :)         We ordered a chapatti set for $5.50. Ha! Cravings was satisfied. Cheap and yet the food is so tasty. This is a great place to din...

ABBEY:  We got this at Ahava in Centerpoint. This works as a facial wash at the same time as a scrub. Tiny beads works on your pores leaving your face clean and smooth. And the smell? Well, you're woman will definitely give you a kiss as you smell very manly. It makes me more handsome in Wilma's eyes :) WILL:  Thanks Ahava for giving away samples of these facial scrubs. We scheduled to redeem this at their outlet at The Centerpoint.        As I asked the very pleasant lady behind the counter, she told me that I can use also this as the scrubs are not too strong to dry up a woman face. And then I tried.        Darlings, I love it as if I am like having diamond peel feel in my own home. The scent is so manly, but that part I would love to be on my husbands face :)        This Cleo's 2012 Beauty Hall of Fame product winner can buy to their website . Click here. Thanks again Ahava! 

ABBEY:  SPOILER ALERT: Ok, we had a long wait for this sequel. After hours spent on cleaning the house we rewarded ourselves to watch this action star-packed movie. Lead by Stallone, they went to mountains of Albania to retrieve a computer that shows a blueprint of a plutonium mine. Unfortunately they were intercepted by Van Damme's group which led to the killing of their youngest member. Revenge as their motive, they track down their enemies. The movie is great. I had a lot of laughs watching it. They pulled it off again just like the first. By the way beware of the "lone wolf" :)) WILL:  It is holiday and I really want to stay home, but Abbey insisted to go out and watch this movie, anyway, I turned down so many movie dates he scheduled, this one I cannot resist the insisting aura of my hubby. 3PM schedule was full house then we settled for 5PM.       The story is quite usual but the casting is awesome. It is like you watch a 8-in-1 movie. Its is ...

ABBEY:  This is our second invitation for Fred Perry Sub-Sonic Live. Like the first free flow of drink for those who were Fred Perry apparel. The drinks were catered by 42 Below Vodka. Singtel also had a caricature booth. After queuing we had our turn to be "cartoonized". It went well.  Kudos to the artists. They also gave us a magazine in which we are inset as part of the first party. The song artist is good as well. The stage is better this time as we can see their faces now. Before going home we finished 2 songs of Charlie Lim. This guy plays the guitar really good. I hope we can be part again of the next gathering :) WILL:  They created a culture... The Fred Perry Subculture. A clothing brand that helps the underground music to surface on music scene. We are glad that our RSVP was placed in and got the invite for this event.We got there at The Lawn around 8PM, band is playing and all were flocking their way to the stage.  ...

ABBEY:  This is new flavor of Magnum ice cream. This time they put hazelnut in their frozen delight. The taste is creamy and caramel-sweet.  Back in Philippines, this ice cream is a phenomenon. Its just the curiosity that I bought it but I prefer their original flavor. A 3-stick pack costs 6sgd WILL: As my previous post about this ice cream sensation, I am not that grateful as others may seem, or I san say unlike Abbey. Haha!  Abbey love this a lot, me?, I am not that so in to this. Actually, a pack was stocked in our freezer for over a month. I just ate one of those when I got a tooth extraction.       The taste? As usual, the crunchy chocolate that envelopes the vanilla ice cream and hazelnut. Good for a dessert though.

ABBEY:  We saw the ad for this body scrub on one of our flight going back to Philippines. The product is different as it has yogurt in it. The aroma of cranberry fills the bathroom when I use it and the beads really clean my body making it soft and smooth. WILL:   I saw an ad of this Scrub Me Pretty selections in a magazine rack of Cebu Pacific. As I read it, I blurted to Abbey that add this up in our grocery list, and so he did. For Php350, a bottle of cranberry yogurt covered our 5 weeks of exfoliation.        No salt at all and yet the cranberry seeds were there and it does the job that salt must do. Oh, I am so fragrantly delicious. Sweet! Haha! Love the scent and the softness of skin we have. 

ABBEY:  Preparing this tea requires great timing :) Why did I say it? Soaking the bag for more than 3 minutes will burn the leaves unlike the other brands.         Many times I drank the bitter taste of the tea. Later, I somehow managed to prepare it on time and sip the relaxing concoction during my tea breaks. WILL:  Cameron Highlands of Malaysia is one of my list to go, this is just near to Singapore only a coach away. What makes me want to go there? The tea plantation. Tea enthusiast indeed! But before going there I stumbled their manufactured tea in Cold Storage at VivoCity Mall. Bought it and I really need to taste it.        Every land really grows different taste of fruits, ahm and leaves hehe. For a starting tea adventurer, try this Boh Tea, has an extra mild flavor. Really recommendable, this box is only $2.35 

ABBEY:  This chocolate drink taste like Nesquik. Like other choco treat, this can be served as hot or cold. To complete the unique of the concoction, tiny marshmallows were added to the mix. This little delights dissolve along as you stir. I like to prepare a hot cup whenever I finished a major task at the office; as a reward :) And i prefer the cold one after a jog to regain energy. WILL:  I am not into sweets, I am not into chocolates, even chocolate drinks...unlike Abbey. As I stated on my previous posts for "last drop", Abbey is on the midst of transforming from coffee to tea drinker, but when I saw that this Swiss Miss chocolate marshmallows on sale, I grabbed it immediately for some treat for my husband.        I know this drink since my college days. The creamy and chocolaty taste soothes the drinker in every sip. This is one of my greatest pal when I am on the midst of the late night reading my Tariff and Customs Code of the Philippines Vol...

ABBEY:  I've never thought this day would come after my nerve-racking parajump at Sentosa. Groupon offered a 25sgd-voucher for a 2-hour session of wall climbing and height-related-pee-on-your-pants activities. The place is at Shines Outdoors in 1208 Upper Boon Keng Road. Upon arrival we were told to put harness and helmet. Starting the session our host, Ryan, told us to make a high five and saying our name to our group mates. There were 11 of us. This lightened the mood and made our session a friendlier one. He also advised us to stay hydrated. He keeps on telling us that all challenges are by choice. No pressure even you're the only one who did not make it.  First stop is wall climbing. We were thought of manners for the activity. Always ask if belay is ready and you're about to climb. This is very important as the climber's life literally depends on you. As you belay focus on the climber as well as the rope and your hands. As I watched the first batch of climbers t...

ABBEY:  I was ecstatic when Wilma told me she won 100sgd food vouchers. Wow, that's a lot. But the catch is to spend them all until the end of the month after receiving the vouchers 2 weeks before the deadline.  For Mexican food we got burrito, chimichanga and chingadera. They all came with mashed red beans, guacamole and salsa.  For Indian food we had plain and garlic naan, vegetable samosa, chicken tikka, and sheehk kebab. Those were spicy but delicious. I felt hot on my stomach after the meal. We got the food in two deliveries not in one sitting :)  By the way they only deliver but islandwide (1-hour guarantee). Delivery charge is 7sgd and all food is subject to 7% GST. WILL:  Crossed finger I emailed my details, after few minutes, Expat Living Singapore replied to my mail! Darn, I am one of the fastest and most blessed girl to won a S$100 voucher.        Dial-A-Curry do not just offe...

ABBEY:  The third chapter of Ecclesiastes on the Holy Scriptures tells us that there is time for everything. Hermes tells just like that in their exhibition call The gift of Time. It is currently displayed at Old Railway Station in Tanjong Pagar. It ends August 12. It shows timepieces made from bags, pieces of tables utensils, and even water. Also it gives a hint the humble beginnings of the brand. It teaches us to cherish the time and savor it. When was the last time we were excited to set our footprints in the end of first snowfall or appreciate the silence when the vacuum cleaner was turned off? WILL:  The traveling exhibit that was started in Hong Kong now stepped-in at the shores of Singapore. As one of leading brands of bags and fashion, Hermes presents the Gift of Time Exhibit in the historical Tanjong Pagar railway station. As we enter the old railway, we are very delighted that Hermes open this exh...
