Reviews about many things in fifi's life

Hi friends! I'm once again SO FREE to do a review on things that are going on in my life for the past 3 weeks! Have been rather occupied for the past few weeks that I couldnt find much time to blog! Fret not still.. cause I had snap loads of pictures while I'm accomplishing my task! :)

First on list! IT's DESSERTS that I wanna talk about! Recently, I have found a secret hide out for stress-free moment! It's a place located at Serangoon Garden area! It was the boyfriend who brought me there during one of the surprise meet-up! He told me that he had checked out the sites to find out where to bring me for a good stress-free moments.

What I like about this dessert shop is its creativity! Starting from the ambience to the food to the name of the food. Here are some of my recommendation of desserts that I personally like!

Coffee Prince

Durian Mousse (BEST) - $4.00

Mango Sago with Pomelo (BEST) - $3.50

The mango sago is like HEAVEN! There are mini ice balls that goes well with the sweet pomelo! The durian mousse was very good too! It's like eating Durian Pengat! Totally sedap!

On top of the food, I love THESE from their shop too!

Any idea what they were? They are all.. 3D models that looks so real! They are displayed at the corner of the shop for your convenience of taking photos.  I really wonder how did they manage to get those miniature stools and bins! OH MY! Their signs that are hanging around the cafe had cute meanings too!

However, the downside of the cafe would be the noise level and those waitresses from China. Other than that.. it's a rather lovely place to chill. They have wonderful magazine for your own leisure too! From Cosmo to Cleo to ViVi!

Few days later, we went to...

  

just before sending me home. I was throwing a little tantrum and the boyfriend decided to cheer me up by driving me all the way... SERENE CENTRE! *oops*

To buy 2 scoops of ice-creams which taste so heavenly! I decided to forgive him with 2 big kisses after that!

After 2 months plus of complaining, we finally made it to THE CHEESECAKE CAFE with lk and his gf!

Address:

685 East Coast Road Singapore 459054

(Near Siglap Centre)

I simply love their cheesecake so much that NO OTHER CHEESECAKES in Singapore can take its place! Though all their cheesecake are sinful, it still did not deter me from gobbling down the whole slice all by my own! My favourite from there is the American Classic Cheesecake! It's just so cheesy and creamy! *loves*

Coke Float

Oreo

American

Bump into Pandora while enjoying my cakes! It was her last night in Singapore before flying off to Aus! Sigh.. how time flies aeh! We used to play mahjong at each other house almost every week and we even have heart to heart phone conversation despite the age differences! She was just like a big sis to me (ok la.. she's not really that old too lar! My friend even thought that you're one of my uni friends! Oops!) Hope you're doing great there... PANDORA!

Second: 

It was our bestie, Lionel Koh Wee Heng's birthday. Being a steamboat lover himself, he had decided to whip out some dishes for a small steamboat party. He loves decorating food and here are some of his artwork!

I don't know what he was doing! It was his invention!

Everything has lemons to it!

Friends who came! They were watching fighting spiders!

The birthday boy cum steamboat lover! *yes* he loves flaunting his 'branded' undies! Used to it!

I must really claimed that he's a very good cook. He made CHICKEN RICE for all of us and even steam a crab! Tell me how many of the guys you know actually COOKS? My bf does but not to an extend of steaming a CRAB and cooking CHICKEN RICE! I don't even touch the stove! Whatever it was, thanks Lionel Koh for the birthday invites! Hope you love that small gift we had gotten for u! :)

I had gotten the latest issue of Cleo since daddy was paying for it. I was flipping through it the other day.. and SAW this pair of really amazing heels! I happened to watch a video about the dressing sense for convocation from a fashion guru! She thought me to wear a pair of gold shoes to match my gown as GOLD symbolises VICTORY! Thus, I had been looking around for a pair of lovely gold heels for a few months till I saw THIS!!

However, the price kinda Eerks me!

Then, I decided to make a trip down to Nine west to see if the shoes fit! I was hoping that it won't fit well so that I won't have to spend money!

But to my dismay, it fit perfectly and there was only 2 pieces of size 5 in the whole SINGAPORE! It was so exclusive that I just HAVE TO GET IT! I went home (after my 2 free tickets to Step up 3 (3D) given by a kind soul) and told my shoe-lover sister about it to see what opinions would she give.

She was quite supportive!

I mean so SUPPORTIVE that she smsed me the next day...

'GO GET THE PAIR OF SHOES LA, CHARGE IT TO MY CITIBANK ACC (yea.. she sup a card for me under her acct).. THIS SHALL BE UR BDAY PRESENT!'

Therefore, I rushed to Isetan during lunch to get that 1 and only pair and I was so happy that I flaunt it to my colleagues!

I have a WONDERFUL SISTER!

*p.s: I know it is not good to buy shoes for someone.. but I will pay her a dollar to get rid of it!

On top of that pair of shoes, this little girl who is my neighbour told me something that totally brightens me the whole day...

small girl: Jie jie, I like your dress

Me (feeling sleepy yet shocked!): U really like my dress?

small girl: Ya.. I love your dress a lot!

Me: *blushed* thank you!

I'm a HAPPY girl and I'm gonna tell myself everyday that EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE FINE!

Hope you have a great weekend! Loves!

Bangkok Day 4

It's finally the last day of the fantastic trip! I felt a little sad on that day even though I'm still going back to Platinum mall to conquer the very last few shops. We went to MBK again to get Naraya stuffs and we finally set foot to that Siam Square! It was like a street in Hong Kong called Gwandolen Street( I'm not that sure with the spelling)! There, it sells very expensive yet nice clothes! It was a rush shopping trip and therefore we ended up having A and W for lunch!

They have very special set display for its food! Very thoughtful!

            I think it would like much better if they could end it off with 2 sesame seeds on its eyes! hehe!

Very nice advertisement display I must say! They even have wireless network in the street! HOW COOL IS THAT!

After a good hearty meal of A n W! We made a trip back to the hotel to pick our luggage up and headed off to the airport! Seriously, I HATE DEPARTURE DATES! Cause that would also mean the start of REALITY life again!

I made the parents to stand beside the statue to take a shot at the airport!

I wasnt really ready when I'm taking with the statue! See the top I am wearing? I bought it from BKK!

We wanted to try the mango rice for the past few days but never have the courage to order it! It cost really cheap in the city! But.. we decided to act atas and try the $7.50 one INSTEAD! HAHA!

The flight back was a little bumpy! I didnt get to sleep at all during the flight! Despite that the trip was a short one with not much time spent on shopping. I still did enjoy myself loads! Like I mentioned in the first post that it was the first time traveling with my boyfriend's parents, it was still not as bad as I thought it would be. I saw the other side of them during the whole trip. I managed to speak up and converse with them more and they never complain anything about my shopping habits at all! His mum was so nice to accompany me to every shop to give me advices and his dad was so helpful to carry my loots too! :)

I seriously did enjoy every single part of the whole trip!

Oh! We were so in love with one of their Thailand's tidbits that we bought....

9 packets of it back to the sunny island!

WHICH RESULTED ME TO HAVE A BAD SORE THROAT ON THAT VERY WEEK! URGH!!

Day 3

I'm really tired after a day of work but I'll still blog diligently!

The third was a super rushing day. We had to head to Chatuchak to shop! But while waiting for the cab to JJ market, we tried onto the swing at our hotel. It was helluva hilarious on how we tried to jump on it together!

See how 'Atas' our hotel is!

*pardon me for my fatty legs* I put on quite a number of Kilos in Thailand

See how lovely the parents are! I'm so gonna print this photo out with a photo frame for his parents! *wink*

JJ market was fun but the weather was so hot that we nearly fainted! His dad couldnt take the heat that he gotten us coconuts to cool ourself down! His dad was so thoughtful whenever it comes to such things! We spend a few hours at JJ market and decided to take a train back to Siam to have

FUJI

I'm really lazy to state their names. So let the photos do the talking! :)

My fav. green tea!

We continued doing some last minute shopping at Platinum mall and we had to do it a fast one as time wasn't on our side. Before we could finish the last 2nd level, the whole shopping mall started shutting. We had a very quick dinner at Platinum food court which was HORRIBLE! His dad bought us bird nest which was like water! The night ended short on that very day as we were too tired to go anywhere else. Dear and I continued walking along the streets to search for more stuff but to our disappointment. I pluck up my courage to try the cup corns with carnation milk! The corn was nice but the carnation milk was too wierd! Dear bought a AnW float for himself and we ended the night with....

MY FAVOURITE...... CHEESE HOTDOG FROM 7-11

Since there wasnt much to do on the very last night even though I wish I could do something outside, we ended up packing our luggage! I must admit that I didnt get as much item as compared to the past few trips but I must say that the items I bought this time are really pretty!

I was a little apologetic to my bf though! He bought only 10 tees due to the time restriction. The place that we thought was a Men's heaven was closed due to DUNNO WHAT REASON! I could see the sadness in his face when we tried going 2 times only to leave with sadness! Sorry dear! You know I love you!

shall end this post with 2 lovely photos of us!

Bangkok Day 2

I'm very sorry for the late update. So what's with day 2 of my Thailand trip?  It started with a good breakfast at the hotel. I simply love how they prepare their eggs. Its so addictive that I totally forgotten about CHOLESTROLS! It is a must for me to order a sunny side up and an omelette else that would make me a very grumpy Felicia!

We continued with our shopping spree at Platinum cause seriously.. the 5 levels is not a JOKE! I would recommend you to get their map from level 1 with you so that you can circle those shops that sells lovely clothes so that you can hop back to the shop if you want something more.

We walk to another shopping centre to have our lunch. We couldnt decide what to have for lunch since we will be having something good for dinner. We ended up at MACDONALD! Their mac seems 10 times more posh than Singapore. Anyway, saw that thing on my head? That head band cost less than 5 bucks at Bkk! I bought 4 head bands to glam up myself in the hot country.

We went to other places such as the Levis factory outlet and Jim Thomson factory outlet but well.. it is not really worth going for. Nothing cheap there. We took a train to Chinatown for dinner and finally... after 3 trips to BKK... we get to eat....

SCALA RESTAURANT

Here are the dishes that we had ordered!

Seems nice aeh? Yea! It definitely taste great! But I doubt I will head back there again! The prices are abit steep and nothing so fantastic to go crazy about to?

I was nearly scalded while on my way to the restaurant by those road side vendors. Some idiot threw hot oil right on the floor just 5 cm away from me! Thank god.. that I JUMP on time and gave him a big stare.

We went to Suan Lum after that and was HELLUVA dissappointed! I guess Suan Lum shops have started closing down. A handful of them opens in the night only and it was on FRIDAY! It was like so dead compared to the last 2 visit that I went. I bought a thai boxing pants from Suan Lum market only! :( I couldnt find the manicurist that did wonderful cheap nails anymore!

After a long day out, we finally head back to our hotel to have a quick shower b4 going for our body massage just a stone throw from our hotel. It cost only $10 for 1 hr! We were brought into the VIP room and 4 of us just KNOCK OUT while they were cracking our bones! There's only one word to describe the whole hr... SHIOK!!

Overall, I think that bangkok shopping spree only happens in NARAYA and Platinum mall! You can try heading to Siam Square too.. but.. things there isnt that cheap either. Please also bear in mind that Platinum mall and other wholesale mall closes at 8pm sharp. There's nothing really much to do after 8pm  other than a good massage, groceries shopping at siam paragon, having a good meal at posh restaurants like Banyan Tree or drinking their $4 Heineken in the comfort of your hotel room. Don't dont don't go to Patpong for couples.. cause those pubs hostress will never let you off! They follow you everywhere you go saying 'GOOD GOOD ChEAP CHEAP THAI GIRL SHOW'! Don't ever go into such pubs cause you wont know if you can come out alive! 

Here's a nice night view for your pleasant night!
