ABBEY: Starbucks Singapore held another Frappuccino Happy Hour last June 23-27. Or should I say happy hours as it lasted for four hours (3-7PM). For a price of 9.20SGD we got Strawberry Cheesecake and Tiramisu.  The Tiramisu tastes good as it is not too sweet and you can bite into crunchy chunks on the drink.  Hope to have more happy hours to come as well as more flavours to choose from. WILL:  Starbucks, strawberry and cheese frappé revamped its flavor. I do not know if it is because of the "bug" thing but I will always be thankful for this new idea. All Singapore store gave way to the public for their Happy Hour 1-for-1 promotion. After my office I directly went to Metropolis to meet Abbey in Starbucks' branch there. Queue builds up when while we are waiting for our order. I asked for starwberry cheesecake frappuccino while hubby got his blended Tiramisu. We take it home and while eating our dinner, we are sipping our delightful drink. My strawberry ch...

ABBEY: After the seven-year stint of Songs of the Sea, it ended with flying colours. And speaking of flying, Sentosa offers another light, water and sound show with Wings of Time.  We won a pair of tickets on the first day of the show itself. It was a story of Shahbaz going his way home with the help of Rachel and her friend Felix. Yes that is the story line. I can't see the connection of the concerto maestro as well as the role of the other casts on the plot. Once the animation began, the casts were "casted" on the sidelines unlike on the Songs of the Sea wherein there is an interaction. But in Wings of Time, the light show and fireworks are better. Your eyes will feast on the light patterns as well as its coordination with the fireworks and water.  Tickets were priced at 18SGD for regular and 23SGD for premium seats. WILL:  Thanks to the State of Fun for giving us an opportunity to see first the most awaited show at Sentosa…The Wings of Ti...

ABBEY: Wilma told me that we will be having Spanish doughnut as snack. On my mind, it is a bread with sweet topping and has a shape that resembles a ring. When we went to Spanish Doughnuts in Orchard Central, I got surprised when I saw that Spanish doughnuts are long like wands. They are dipped in melted chocolate (white, brown, or dark). They're called churros by the way. Also they offer the kind of pipe-like ones. Six-inch churros (bombons) are filed with bavarians and dipped in chocolate topped with sprinkles.  You can get one for a price of less than 5sgd. I liked the dark chocolate bonbon churro as well as their  triple chocolate. The original churro is also delicious as you can taste the richness of the bread once it got fried. WILL:  Spanish doughnut here in Singapore? Before their 3+1 promo ends, Abbey and I scheduled a dessert date at Orchard. Luckily there is a seat for two. I asked for the plain churros and Abbey was enticed to get th...

ABBEY: Care to have a breakfast beside a marina? You must try Privé cafe. We went there during the fourth day of my sister's visit. It would be advisable to hail a cab as there's no bus service going there. Or you can jog as part of your morning routine.  We sat on a table under a tree and the morning sea breeze greeted us. We tried their Ultimate Brekkie (chicken frankfurter, eggs, bacon, roasted tomato, mushrooms, and toast) as well as their eggs benedict which I liked the most. The poached eggs are creamy and well complemented by the sauce.  You can take snaps with the yachts. It is refreshing while eating delicious food, hearing the sound of water and having a good ambiance. All day breakfast price start from 12-20 sgd. WILL:  This is highly recommended place by our friend blogger Nadine and by a magazine (sorry forgot where I read it). When my in-laws visited us here in Singapore,  we finally got the chance to check this P...

This is a very easy to cook recipe. 2 stalks of curry leaves A can of luncheon meat Ready mix cereal 1/4 block of butter Fry the lucheon meat and into 1-inch strips. Set aside. On a pan, melt the butter, and put the curry leaves then the cereal. Mix it well. Then put the luncheon meat.  Serve with hot rice. VERDICT WILL: This is one of the great perks when going out with friends and having a potluck. We tasted different kinds of food and have exchanges of recipe.  And this time, Abbey and I came across with Ma'am Ivy's masterpiece .. the Cereal Luncheon Meat. Abbey gladly cooked it for a dinner. Salty and sweet. Really, really good. Next time, we will bring this as our food contribution on next friends' meet up :)
