Nissin Cup Noodles Black Pepper Crab & Tom Yam Seafood

ABBEY: Nissin Cup Noodles “transformed” their noodles into chips. :)
We were intrigued about how it taste so we bought a couple of packs.
The black pepper flavor is like ordinary chip at first bite. But, it is hot. We couldn’t finish it on one sitting.

The Tom Yam flavor is meh. Not even my preference as a dish.
The sour smell is overpowering.

Both flavors can be enjoyed if you have soda on the side. Aaaah!

Nissin's Cup Noodles Black Pepper Crab & Tom Yam Seafood

WILL: Nissin Cup Noodles is now crossing to chips industry and to touch the palate of Asians, they introduced to us the Tom Yam Seafood and Black Pepper Crab Flavours. 

Tom Yam Seafood has this seafood pungent smell. You know the well concentrated smell of Tom Yam? On that, I am not a fan. 

While the Black Pepper Crab, it became my instant fave. Why? If you really crave for some butt-kicker spice, go on and buy some of this. Whew! Can't eat those chips in one sitting! Please be ready for your water.

Chinese Medical Centre - 1-Hour Full Body TCM Massage under FAVE

ABBEY: Wilma is having back pain and this time we opted to go for a Traditional Chinese Medicine massage. We went to Chinese Medical Centre for an hour of full body masaage. 

Our schedule is at 6PM but got delayed for 20 minutes. It’s worth the wait. The masseuse's hands ate heavy and really relieved my muscles from tension. I was kneaded with elbows amd knuckles. It’s painful but good. Ready to tackle the week ahead.

Chinese Medical Centre - Punggol Plaza Branch

WILL: I went back here in Singapore with a severe backpain (left area). I know, I know. Why I went back without seeing a masseuse in Manila. I ran out of time, huhu. Tell you..I know this is not an ordinary pain. All I know is I want to see a Chinese Doctor. Hahaha. 

Another hurdle aside from time, Abbey's insurance is not yet out and I do not want to pay enormous amount, so who I gonna call? FAVVVEEEE! HELP!!! Haha! 

Saw an hour of TCM Massage at Chinese Medical Centre and they have a branch at Punggol Plaza! Nice! Bought and booked immediately! 

How's the massage? Totally different! It feels like every strand of my muscle was kneaded. And the masseuse always asked and caught me lying. Hahaha! All I care about is my left upperback but she found and I realized that there's some distressed part of my body too! I asked her if she can give me acupuncture, but she resisted and advised me to have a cupping instead. 

I am agitated to that process. Why? I can't breathe whenever the cup was placed on my skin. As it is sucks all the oxygen in me. Haha. But I need to bare that anxiety. So I relaxed myself by breathing in and out. And on many attempts on that, I finally quiet my brain and make it understand that this is for my sake. 

After 10mins she blurted out. "Oh my! So black! Is this your first time?" Imagine? She described my back "black" in color. 

After, the session, I felt so tired. Haha. It seems someone beat me! At home, there is no position for me to be comfortable. Seriously, how can I get a sleep? But maybe because inside, my body is doing a repair. I drifted off. 

The next day, I felt better and the cracking sound at my left upper back and arm is lesser. 

I will come back for another TCM once Abbey and I already have our ID for our insurance. 🤗

Thanks FAVE for relieving my "stingy" anxiety and Chinese Medical Centre for alleviating the backpain!

Istana Heritage Gallery

ABBEY: After a hearty lunch at Orchard Central, we went to Istana Gallery. This is for guests who cannot visit Istana on the Open House. It showcases the gifts given by other foreign leaders as well as their signed cards when they came to Singapore. 

You can buy souvenir items and the proceeds will go to the President Challenge which aims to help the less fortunate and building social entrepreneurship.

WILL: I admit it, it is tough sometime to get off my bed and explore Singapore. But when I think what I’ll be mssing, here I am checking what are the places I never visited in here in the beautiful country of Singapore. 

Istana Gallery is just the opposite of Istana itself. It is free of charge and you can learn the history and functions of Istana, past emblems and the charity institutions the President is helping. 

This will not take so much of your time. Visit and feed your mind with Singapore's History!
