Two Men Bagel House

ABBEY: Wilma is a fan of bread. And she was delighted when we dine at Two Men Bagel House (01-12 Icon Village Altez at Enggor Street). They have different flavours of bagels like garlic, rye, multi-grain, black and white sesame and they also have the original or plain one. 

You can ask to put cream cheese, jellies and peanut butter. There are a lot of options to choose from. And then they have bagelwiches. Yup, bagel made into sandwiches. I got their bagelwich of the month: the Yoe. It has roasted lamb slices, coconut red curry, onions and tomatoes. The toasted bagel is crunchy and flavorful. It will be messy but worth it. My meal costs $14.00 and it came with a cup of coffee. Only NETS and cash are accepted.

Porkey

Two Men's Special

The Yoe


WILL: Abbey is ecstatic that he will be presenting to me the newly repaired engagement ring. We agreed to meet at Two Men Bagel House, few steps away from my office. 

I ordered Porkey at the counter. It was consisted of tomatoes, bratwurst and melted cheese, garlic aioli and egg (S$8.90). Once we are settled and while waiting Abbey threw a second engagement. Haha. The ring is exquisite (see our  separate blog here). Food arrived and we dug in. What's the taste? Not your ordinary "burger". Bagel is firm and the taste of bratwurst complements well with other ingredients. 

Oooh! The guy behind the cashier (I think he is the owner) is handsome and friendly. Haha! 

Abbey always proposes to me with the food that I love. First at pizza now at bagel shop. Now I am thinking where will be the next? ;) 

Two Men Bagel House are very recommendable. And it is a must try at Tanjong Pagar area. You will fall in love with their food.

Ateneo School of Government: Leadership and Social Entrepreneurship (LSE) Batch 38 Singapore

ABBEY: Leadership and Social Entrepreneurship is a program of Ateneo School of Government to empower Filipinos worldwide to become entrepreneurs with social responsibility and at the same to become leaders of their own teams. 

It is a 6-month program (10 sessions / 1 every two weeks). The fee is 300SGD but for the Household Service Workers it is half the price. All students are required to finish their journals, final essay (your LSE journey), and presentation of business plan. 

A certificate of completion will be given once the requirements are met. Yes, there is a commencement exercises at the end. 

I learned a lot from this program and I recommend this to my friends. Thanks Ateneo. Now I can wear those Blue Eagle jackets :)



Ateneo School of Government: Leadership and Social Entrepreneurship 
(LSE) Batch 38 Singapore - Graduation (November 20, 2016)

Ateneo School of Government: Leadership and Social Entrepreneurship (LSE) Batch 38 Singapore 


WILL: Yes! Not only our gadgets are being upgraded, but also ourselves. 1st week of January, I attended Peng Joon's Internet Income Intensive  and almost end of the year Abbey graduated from Ateneo School of Government: Leadership and Social Entrepreneurship Course. Naks! Atenista na! 

Unlike the 3-day seminar I attended. This LSE was stretched for almost half of the year. It is only held on Sundays to accommodate all the Filipino working group here in Singapore. I can see in Abbey's eyes the excitement every time he has a class on the following day. He will check his drinks and candies (baon) and looking forward to their lunch. 

When he got home, he is full of stories! Haha! How to do this and how he calculated our financial standing. It is astonishing that we are pretty far from what we should achieve. But it is okay, at least we know our target. 

LSE only not taught my husband on finance side, as promised, they honed my husband's leadership skills. 

Thanks LSE. hoping for more and more people for you to teach. Thanks for helping not only the OFWs achieved their goals but be a good steward to the blessing they are receiving and being a help to each's community. 

Viva Ateneo! Viva LSE!

Holiday Inn® Singapore Atrium Restaurant - Dinner Buffet

ABBEY: We had our send-off party for Gil and Noel at Holiday Inn Atrium. It is a dinner buffet. 

They have BBQ pork ribs (it slides off the bone) and chicken, slow-cooked salmon (had to come back twice for this), sushi, sashimi, roasted lamb leg, and Thai beef noodles. 

I also tried their kiddie meal: red sauce pasta and pizza. For dessert I got ice kachang and ice cream. It was a feast. But when the BBQ pork ribs ran out, it was not replenished. 

We had a good time; good stories and good meal. By the way we availed their one for one promo.



WILL: No, it is not a farewell party. It is just a send-off to our friends. An "all-the best for your future endeavours" party. We gave them choices where to pig-out and they selected the dinner buffet at Holiday Inn Atrium.

As soon as we arrived at the venue, Abbey took videos and started eating. For only $45.90nett we feasted on that dinner. I am not sure how many times I stand to get food for my plate. Haha. My favourite? Their sushi topped with mayonnaise and their ever tender grilled pork. I never had a pork like that. But be alert, it is easily refilled and you will never know it is all gone. Yikes! This is the only buffet that I know that I ate a rice. Grilled pork and fried rice. Perfect!

Plate after plate, we chatter about the next plans in our life, on career and on being an investors. Their tea, coffee is bottomless. They enjoyed a dessert that comes up with a ball of alcoholic drink. :)

We went home with full stomach. Happy belly again!
