FOODIE

EAT.EAT.EAT.
Chinese has a saying 能吃是福, it means is a blessing to eat.

I have been café hopping and dining at various places recently. Here are a quick updates...
PS: remember your handkerchief~ :D

let's wind all the way back to the month of April 2015.

260415, Sunday
Met up with WL and WY for brunch. Great catch up and we had lots of laughter

1st stop: Hatched Café
Food were not bad. Find it a little pricy for eggs and milk.
Maybe once awhile still fine.
Overall Rating: ♥♥♥1/2

2nd stop: 2am, Dessert Bar
Can you imagine we were having wine and dessert in the afternoon. But the dessert is exquisitely awesome. For a moment we felt like some rich women enjoying high tea with no customer around at all. It's EXPENSIVE but worth a try:)

Woke up early for breakfast
Canopy Garden @ Bishan.
Finally after saying it for 2 years, he brought me to this dining place. Love the ambience, food and their service is really good too. But is a little inconvenient for people without a car to travel over unless by a cab?

I really love the ambience and decoration. The carpet are filled with fake grass patch and is a children friendly environment. I found this café in one of the budget romantic list from some famous food blogger. Personally I feel the food is so-so and a little pricey. However if you are on the first date, the ambience for sure is a plus point! Good Luck:)
