    Came across this place recently when I was in the area shopping so decided to have dinner there.

    Assam Laksa ($8.80) - The soup is a little too thick and way too salty with very little sardines in it. The noodles are a little odd too. I'll never order this again.

    Nasi Lemak ($9.80) - I love this (despite the price tag). And the part I love most is the rice cooked in coconut. It's really soft and delectable. My companion loves the chicken which was pretty well done too. It's served with belachan which neither of us eat.

    Milo Dinosaur ($2.80) - Diluted. Go to Simpang for your MD fix.

    Honestly? Prices are a tad pricey but the place is nicely done up and if you don't want to have the same dishes in a crowded place... then it's worth paying I guess.

    We were in the area for a staycation and decided to stop by as we've heard so much about it.

    The cafe is really easy to find, facing the main road and right at the end of the whole row of shops. Its ambience is really nice and warm. It is a smallish cafe with some outdoor seating.

    I noticed they have a couple of menus. The menu I've seen on others' website (the weekend one) is very different from the one we had that day as it was a Friday. There are also some items only available for dinner after 6pm. The staff was cordial enough but not entirely helpful. Thankfully as it was only 3pm on a Friday, there were a number of empty seats and we could be seated immediately. We walked past during the weekend and there was a queue even at odd times of the day.

    What we ordered:

    Smoked Salmon, Cheese, Egg on Toast ($10) - I'm not sure why we ordered this. It is a tad expensive for the four small pieces of toast we were getting but I guess I was in the mood for some light bites. It tasted fine, nothing special though. The bread was well toasted and I like the combination.

    Penne with Salmon ($15) - This was really quite nice. The penne was al dente and the sauce used was not too thick. Don't expect much salmon though.

    Iced Hazelnut Latte ($6.50) / Iced Mocha ($6.50) - We ordered iced coffee because only the iced coffee came with 3D art and that was what we were there for! The staff warned us that it might take at least 30min for them to prepare our drinks but as there weren't many people that day, the drinks came in 15min which was acceptable. Be prepared to wait if you go on a weekend! The drinks tastes fine just that you might not feel like drinking them after admiring the 3D art.

    So we spent about $40 for the both of us. I might go back if I'm in the area but definitely not travel all the way to Changi V for this.

    My companion kept raving about Awfully Chocolate that it made it impossible for me not to try. We went about looking for an outlet but realised the one at Katong had closed and all that was left was an office above Everything with Fries (which is also great btw).

    So we dropped by at the itsy bitsy outlet tucked away in a corner of Vivo City. The first thing that occurred to me was.. HUH two tables only? They only had two high tables and about 3 chairs per table. They had a nice glass counter display which lined two walls, making an L-shape so it was pretty cramped. But well it is a specialty shop and most places like this don't even have seats at all. And we were there for the ice cream so there is hardly a need for seats.

    They had ice cream (1 flavour - HEI which means black), chocolate bars and chocolate cake and cupcakes for sale. The ice cream went for $3.80 for a single scoop, $6.20 for a double scoop and $11.80 for a pint. The chocolate cupcake was $4.90 and the stacked chocolate cake was $6.50 per 100g. Truffles were $13 for 100g.

    They had iced water in a jug set aside for customers and provided plastic cups, so that even if you had to do a takeaway you could grab a cup of water, which is great.

    So we got our double scoop ice cream from the cheery girls behind the counters and sat on the mall's seats just outside the store.

    The ice cream was fantastic. It rich and creamy and I love the dark chocolate taste. Definitely not for sweet chocolate lovers. The spoons we had were really cute and perfect for spooning the ice cream into our mouths.

    Since then, I've had it three times and am still lemming for it. :)

    I love their setting for this outlet. It's cozy.
    It's just beside Seoul Garden. At the corner of Level 2.

    Their staffs are friendly and always ready to serve. They are polite as well.

    There are plenty of seats even when I visit the outlet during the evening peak hours.
    The decorations are nice and it is very creative. It is also very quiet and good for a meet up or gathering with friends.

    It is always clean and the food arrives promptly.
    Comparing to the other outlets I have visited, I still prefer this outlet.

    This outlet is a new outlet. I was quite a frequent eater at this the old outlet at Northpoint which I thought their service are much more better than the current one now. They have changed most of their staffs.

    It seems to me that they are short-handed and it is hard to get their attention when I need to order food.
    Moreover, their computer systems are always down and I have to ask for their staffs.

    This outlet has their famous teppanyaki.
    I have yet to try but it doesn't seems to be very popular in Northpoint outlet comparing to the one at Parkway.

    I ordered 2 boxes of mooncakes for my family and my grandmother from her last week. I was lured by the designs of the mooncake.

    She answered my enquires promptly when I asked her if I'm able to mix and match the shapes and confirmed my orders within a few hours.

    Collected from her in Yishun. Her mooncakes are cheap as well. From what I know, it is home made. Comparing to those mooncakes fair I have been to, her mooncakes are cheaper by a few dollars!

    My family loves the mooncake especially the shape of the mooncake. It is unique. I don't think I can't find such shapes anywhere in Singapore. The box is beautiful as well.
    I might order some for my aunties again!

    The flavours include: Durian, Lotus and Green Tea.
    (this is what I've ordered)

    The skin of the mooncake is soft too.
    :)

    Will recommend to my friends and relatives.

    This outlet in Ang Mo Kio is Aston Express.

    The queue is quite long and we waited for half an hour for our food to be served. But the good thing is that they informed you that your food will need 30 minutes to be ready.

    Thought their service is not very good as it is located in a coffeeshop but their food is comparable to at Sembawang Shopping Center.

    They have seats that seems to be in the restaurant.

    But I supposed I will still visit the outlet at Sembawang due to the overwhelming crowd at Ang Mo Kio.

    Toa Payoh library is spacious and their collection of books is quite an amount.

    They have a senior citizen reading corner which only permits senior citizen. This is something that I do not see in other public libraries.

    Their collection on Singapore books has got quite a number of shelves too. If you are doing a project on Singapore, I bet this is the place other than the public library in Woodlands.

    They even have this small little delifrance inside the library but you could not bring your books inside unlike the Cafe in Woodlands public library.

    They have quite a number of counters for you to borrow your books too.
    Lastly, they split their sections according to the different levels. It is consider quiet at the second level and the third level but I do not see many places to study though.

    I went to this particular store last week to enquire on their membership.
    Their staffs are really friendly. They explained patiently the details to me and even told me the current promotion which other outlet do not tell me about.
    The current promotion is if you have Passion Card or Citibank cards, you will be able to sign up for the membership for FREE!

    The service is something that is outstanding. I bought a few items from them. They even reminded me constantly to verify my membership before 9pm.

    I was there last weekend for my nephew's birthday.
    There are a lot of varieties of food served in the buffet. You name it, they have it including lobsters. The seafood is very fresh. We had plates of fresh oysters, their oysters have no awful smell which I hate it when I visit other buffet restaurants.
    They served quite a number of sushi and they even have raw salmon sashimi and yes, that tastes real good too. Freshness is the key point.
    If you love Chinese food, they have a lot of different kinds of Chinese food. They have this little corner which serves mainly Chinese food like butter prawns, chicken and duck.
    If you love desserts, it will be even more wonderful! They have this fondue fountain which you will be able to dip marshmallows, strawberries and puff in it. Their desserts are served in a very high-class manner. They have chocolate, blackforest, durian, mango and so on. Their ice cream has unique flavors unlike the buffet I always goes to. They do not serve chocolate ice cream but Yam, Durian, Jackfruit etc.
    A nice experience.
    Love this place.
