Akimitsu (秋光) - VivoCity Branch

ABBEY: We celebrated Wilma’s natal day at Akimitsu (VivoCity); Japanese restaurant.


I had their signature pork katsudon. The set comes with a miso soup, chawanmushi and the katsudon with egg and sweet sauce.

The rice bowl taste good. We also asked for wasabi just to try the taste of pork slice to be eaten with it. It was good as well.

WILL: All the food vendors at grabfood and foodpanda were close for lunch and we didn’t manage to order the Japanese Food we are eyeing. Cravings are still there so after office, on my natal day, we dined at Akimitsu VivoCity Branch. 

I ordered Soup Udon with Tonkatsu($13.90). Udon noodles is not as chewy as others, the soup gives the justice, haha. Tonkatsu + the sugary sauce and wasabi is always a hit for me. 

Another thing I love in this restaurant is it’s aura. It has this peaceful feel. Good place for a date!

Genki Sushi at Waterway Point

ABBEY: This Japanese restaurant is always having a long queue. We got curious and we dined in there for our anniversary dinner. You can order the sushi of your choice by scanning a QR code on your receipt and then the magic happens. 

Your one-bite delight will be delivered to you by a train; a toy train. It was fun and unconventional. The wasabi has a nice kick. Bit of advice though, order early as the train can come a little longer.

The price is more expensive compared to other restaurant.

WILL: I planned to have a takeaway food for us to celebrate our 8th year anniversary but my husband except for flower surprise, he also told me that he wants to have a date at Genki Sushi. Well, as always, I said yes to his invitation. 

The gimmick is you order using your own phone via QR provided and your food will be delivered by a magnetic train. Cool, isnt? Hehe. 

So on their food: The wasabe have a hair pulling power.. and I like it. Their sushi is just the same as others. Salmon Skin Handroll has this crunch and tummy fulfilling and it is only $2.30! A good deal! 

Try Genki Sushi! Now! Haha! Oh, I forgot. There’s always a long queue.

VERDICT
WILL: Now, I feel how my mom feels whenever she will think for our daily menu. Luckily on our era, Youtube and Facebook are there to help for some ideas...and Abbey to do it. Hehe. 

Do you know that cabbage is good for your digestion? So! Here you go! Cabbage soup! The taste? It tastes healthy! Vegetarian Dumplings made it even better! If you feel sick, this is a good alternative for porridge. 

Hmmm what will be the next soup baby?

VERDICT
WILL: Fact: When I am in secondary school. My mom always asked me to eat a half-cooked pig’s liver. Everyday! This is to jacked-up my blood as the doctor found that I am anemic that time. So now, remembering those days and to help our body to get more iron that Abbey and I need, we came up with this recipe. Yeyyy!! 

Concoction of iron, protein and beta carotene -- presenting the string beans and carrot with liver! Every bite is yummy and I can hear body thanking me for this food. 

Love this viand! Kung pwede lang araw-araw! Hehe.

Mr Coconut - Coconut Shake

ABBEY: Wilma was really excited when she saw the sign that Mr. Coconut will open a shop near us.

We tried their signature drink: Coconut shake. It was creamy and you can bite the bits and pieces of the coconut meat. Perfect amount of ice, coconut and sugar.

Waterway Point Branch

WILL: The huge buzz now is the different variances of milk tea that rose up in every corner of Singapore. Now, there is a contender to quench the sizzling heat here, the Coconut Shake 

There is one branch newly opened at Waterway Point. Of course, Abbey and I tried it. The taste? Good! As in good that you will taste the real coconut, it was not overpowered by milk, sugar or ice. Texture is creamy and maybe you will enjoy chewing the tidbits of coconut meat. 

Thumbs up Mr Coconut!

Penang Culture at Compass One

ABBEY: We had dinner at Penang Culture (Compass One). I ordered their Hokkien Mee. While waiting for the food, we were given a small basket of prawn crackers (this is chargeable). 

I felt sad when the Hokkien Mee was served. It lacks appeal and the serving is small for 7 SGD. Definitely the picture was very different from the actual :) It has less sauce and less smoky flavor.

WILL: If you are missing Penang‘s good food but you do not have enough time to wander around Malaysia, drop by at Penang Culture.

Went there to try their Assam Laksa. The taste, it is closest that I got on the Penang Assam Laksa that we’ve tasted at KL. The soup is thick enough, the noodles’ texture is just perfect, but pricey in concern with the size of their serving. It feels that it lacks of fish. 

Penang Culture’s Compass One branch was packed with diners. Try for yourself and let us know what is your take on this.

Disney On Ice presents Mickey's Super Celebration 2019

ABBEY: We secured a pair of Disney on Ice ticket for the last day of their show. We will be meeting Mickey and Minnie as well as the princesses so we dressed up for the royalties :)

I’m not suprised that most of the audience are kids. You can see them in Disney Princess costumes while asking their dad and mom to buy souvenirs. Quick bites like hotdogs, sandwiches, and pao are being sold with soda or coffee.

The show is great as the audience participated. You can hear the little voices sung Let It Go with Elsa and the reaction when Rapunzel soared from the ground as if flying. It was fun and I was wowed.

WILL: I saw an ad at MRT station, Singtel posted a promotion for the Disney on Ice and I took that as a sign. Haha! Since Abbey and I do not have an event to do that March, we decided to take that opportunity to see what is happening on that show. 

Alighting out of the car, the little ladies were costumed as their favorite Disney princesses. It is enjoyable to watch! Pass the security area, the magic begins! All you can see are big smiles from the children and hallway are abundant of Disney’s souvenirs! Innocent and delightful aura fills up the stadium. 

What is thw best part? Of course the stars of the show, Moana and Elsa! I didn’t expect that they can pull off effext like the foubtain at the courtyard, frozen staircase, and fire of Te Ka. 

Recommendable activity specially if you are young at heart.
