Pressroom Bangsar

Last weekend was my sister’s birthday. Lazy to cook, I decided to treat sis to dinner at Pressroom @ BSC, it’s a vintage European brasserie serving French and English food.

They have a good variety of wine from many countries, sis and I were so delighted to find our favourite Chablis in their wine list!

The Haute Food Co

If you are looking for cozy new cafes in KL, here’s an idea. Thanks to Piffles who found this place through blog reviews and suggested that we should check it out. I’m the kind of person who is usually disciplined with the weekdays diet but when it comes to weekend (Sunday in particular), I tend to indulge a bit more and let my hair down. The Haute Food Co, Haute is pronounced as “Oht” is a small joint located in Plaza Damas, Sri Hartmas.

You can choose alfresco or indoor but since the weather wasn’t breezy, we picked the indoor seats.

Singapore Night Safari

I’ve heard about the SG Night Safari since ages ago and finally, I had a chance to see it myself earlier this month. Frankly, I’m not really a zoo person. I like animals but the ones I usually see in the zoo are pretty depressing, as they are either sedated to sleep most of the times or miserably locked in cages. tell me, when was the last time you visited a zoo and actually saw a cheerful animal? Anyway, point aside I was pretty excited about the Night Safari because conceptually the animals are supposed to be living in the wild!

Tit Bits of Singa-land

Some random pictures I took in Singapore recently.

Tonkatsu Ginza Bairin at Ion Orchard– I opted for chicken meat instead of their signature pork katsu but I have to say it’s delicious all the same. Be it the curry, batter, radish pickles or rice, all cooked to perfection.  yummy!

Siloso Beach

During a recent trip to Singapore I was craving for some suntan and beach goodies, so we went to Siloso at Sentosa to check out the beach on a beautiful Saturday. The weather was sublime.

You can get there either by bus or taxi. But as a tourist, I did my part and took a cable car from Mount. Faber to Sentosa Island. It costs SGD 22 for a single ride.
