White Restaurant | The Original Sembawang White Beehoon at Jewel Changi Airport

ABBEY: I always want to bring Wilma to White Restaurant at Punggol Settlement but the queue is long. Enter their new branch at Jewel.  We were given a table only after a couple of minutes. We got their signature white bee hoon and horfun. Both came in a platter and you can see chunks of ingredients and you know you’re in for a treat. The taste is great. The slight char on the horfun noodles gave the smokey taste specially when mixed with the sauce.  The white bee hoon has a smooth texture and I really enjoyed the prawns in it. Make sure to ask for their chilli sauce. I think we asked for refill 3 times. It is that good. White Restaurant | The Original Sembawang White Beehoon Jewel Changi Airport WILL:  Are you confused where to eat at Jewel Changi Airport and you want something that is value for money and not just a hype? Do you trust us? Choose to dine at White Restaurant.   What is the best meal to get? It is their White Beehoon. They do not lie th...

Dutch Colony Coffee Co.

ABBEY: Since I love coffee my wife gave me 3 packs of coffee from Dutch Colony for my 10th year in Singapore. I got the ones from Brazil, Columbia and Sumatra. All of them went well on the cold brew process.  The ones from Brazil and Columbia gave sour fruity taste when I made them in a moka pot, but the Sumatra just tasted the same hot or cold. And I really like it. Adding cream to them gave more texture to my coffees. I wonder what flavors my wife give me next. Thanks Dutch Colony. Dutch Colony Coffee Co - Finca San Pascual, Gayo Mandheling and Fazenda Rio Claro WILL:  Abbey is fond of doing his own cold brew coffee. We tried a few beans from IKEA and grocery stalls. As a gift for his 10th year in Singapore, I gave him an artisan ground coffee from Dutch Colony.   With the help of one of the World Barista Championship Certified Judge - Suhaimi of Dutch Colony, he advised some suggestions. For variety, I bought Finca San Pascual, Gayo Mandheling and Faze...

2 Day Water Fast and Why We Stopped It Immediately

ABBEY: WILL:  We always do a 24-hour fast. This round I initiated the 2-day fasting to Abbey.   Fasting is not only good for your body for you to lose weight, balance the sugar and salt and to restart your system but fasting is spiritually good too! In the Bible, every person who has a great request or want to know a divine answer to their queries did fasting with distinctive prayer.  Since my system is used to a 24-hour fasting, I didn’t feel any dizziness nor weakening of my body when I up out of bed at 9am. I even asked Abbey if we can hit the gym  on 12noon of 21st September.  3pm my body shut down to a snooze and I woke up soaked on my sweat. That was 6pm. My body is shaking and for the third time in my fasting experience I felt a numbing and tingling sensation on my whole body. And of course, I know what’s next! My body will secrete a green fluid by vomit.  Last time I had this two incidents and few minutes away in completin...

Gram Cafe & Pancakes Singapore – Famous Jiggly Souffle From Osaka Japan

ABBEY: We queued a couple of times at Gram Pancake and on our third try we were in. There are only 30 soufflé pancakes at each time slots. A serving of three 4-cm pancake on top of each other costs SGD 17.90. That doesn’t include any drink and every person that will enter the restaurant should have an item to order (speaking of profit per customer. Haha). They are wobbly (or jiggly) and fluffy but nothing special about the taste. The smell is like the fancy streetfood-pancake we had in Philippines. Maybe its with the water they use for steaming the pancakes. (Recycled?)  Also in my observation, the staffs seem to give that “take photos for IG, finish your food fast, and leave” vibes. They might just want to serve all the customers who want to get in.  No warmth or welcoming feel except for that one staff or maybe she’s the manager. Not going there for second time :) Gram Cafe & Pancakes Singapore – Famous Jiggly Souffle From Osaka Japan Premium Pancakes WI...

Canton Paradise | Marina Bay Sands

ABBEY: We were craving for porridge so we were on a hunt for one at The Shoppes (Marina Bay Sands). A minute after opening, we entered Canton Paradise. It gives you the feel of splendor with their white and bright ambiance.  I got a bowl of Handmade Meatball Congee and a serving of you tiao. The unique thing with the porridge is they put fresh coriander leaves on top. I didn’t know that it can be a good combination. The porridge rice is so soft that you just have to slurp it like a thick soup. Definitely our cravings were satisfied. Canton Paradise | Marina Bay Sands WILL:  We are around Marina Bay Sands, and the best restaurant to serve a porridge is Canton Paradise.   I ordered  century egg congee with shredded pork . Gosh! This is the porridge I am looking for. Well, what kind? I like it when the rice looks like just it is out from a pressure cooker. That it seems the water and rice married each other and you do not need to chew. Haha. And take note...
