Han Dynasty - RELAXATION DAY IDEA IN SINGAPORE

ABBEY: After a year of hard work, vacation time is anticipated. What makes me excited is that we can relax and enjoy the time off and be ready for the next year. 

To pamper ourselves we went to Han Dynasty for a body massage. I can say that it was an amazing experience. The massage was so hard that I need to tell the masseuse to lessen the “power”. Hahaha. The aching muscles are gone and unwound. It was rejuvenating. Make sure to book an appointment. 


WILL: One of the best gift for a friend is to help them lessen their stress right? So Abbey give a gift of fully body massage to Chat last 2021. This time, we tried Han Dynasty Spa located at Thomson. 

Before the session the masseuse asked for our pain points and indeed they concentrated on that body part. The downside is too much focus on that body part that she didn’t have enough time to massage my limbs. 

The place is clean and you’ll feel that it was totally sanitised. Towels were soft and oil is not that sticky. Worth it to try!

Lemuel Chocolate | Bean To Bar | Singapore

ABBEY: I always crave for hot chocolate for Christmas. Maybe it is with the season or with the ample supply of that brown nectar during that time. Good thing Lemuel (Bean-to-bar chcocolate maker) is there to satisfy my craving. The drink is not too sweet. It is thick and really chocolatey. It is like a cup of hugs that gives warmth to you. They also sell chocolate bars as well as bon bons, and brownies. Definitely, a return trip will be happening.



WILL: Every cold weather hits up, which can be felt during December - February in Sinagpore, Abbey is longing for a cup of hot chocolate. 2020 we went to check Angelina at Marina Bay Sands and on 2021 we went to one of the local chocolatier. Lemuel Chocolate … of course support local! Lemuel Chocolate’s Bean to Bar concept is located at The Star Vista just beside Buona Vista MRT Station. In their open kitchen store you can peak how the chocolate were processed from bean to your sweet lovely chocolate! Their cafe has this chic and pure feel. You can surely have an intimate/private talk there. So how’s the hot chocolate? It is velvety texture, not to sweet and the warmness will embrace you in that cold day. Haha. Truly, Lemuel Chocolate’s were MADE WITH PASSION! You can book a tour too in their factory.

Overrice - The HALAL GUYS version of SINGAPORE

ABBEY: The Overrice offers meals over rice. Whoah! You don’t say. Hahaha. I had their pulled beef signature bowl. It came with pita, shredded lettuce, and basmati rice. Each bowl can be drizzled by their secret white sauce and you can dab the fiery red sauce. And when I say dab, try it little by little. It is hot. Takes sometime to get used to it. Overall the Overrice beef bowl taste good. The ingredients and sauces really complement each other. They also have their version of Magnolia Banana pudding.


WILL: We got curious with New Yorks Halal Guys’ Iconic White Sauce and Impressive Hot Sauce when we stumbled on one of their interviews in YouTube. That curiosity grew to a question where we can get hold of that chili sauce in Singapore? 

Abbey found a place that declares to be Singapore’s version of Halal Guys by its patron. Overrice. Overrice is located at Arab Street and perfect place to dine after our pedicure session at The Nail Social. 

Their place have this “easy-going-young” vibe and the people behind the counter is pretty warm and accommodating. I ordered Falafel Signature Bowl ($12.40). The falafel is not dry and not crumbly. Their basmati rice complements well with their creamy white sauce and a dab of spiciest chili I ever had here in Singapore. (That was the first time that I didn’t ate all the chili served to me… haha) 

Anyways, we were so happy on what we have tasted and decided that Overrice will be our dinner on 24th December! We will surely come back for more on our next visit in Bugis area.
