Scambled eggs and toast ($12) with additional sauteed mushrooms ($3), the huge portion of scrambled eggs with fortina and chives was well cooked and I like how creamy it is yet not gelat. However the sauteed mushrooms tasted a little too salty for my liking.

Truffle egg toast ($15), runny egg yolk battered with cheese and truffle inside a thick toast can definitely perk a truffle's lover up. Truffle taste was just nice and not too overpowering however I personally feel it's a little too expensive.

One of the rare times I actually requested to head somewhere pretty far from my house, travelling from the west to north east. However this relatively new neighbourhood cafe didn't disappoint me. Although they do not take reservation on a weekend, they provide this ipad for online queuing system which you can check your queue number after you've keyed in your reservation.

So we requested outdoor seats and we got our seats in less than 30 mins even though we were on queue number 14.

Croissant with bacon, scrambled eggs, honey ham and cheese with a salad side ($13) was very appetizing, each mouth of it just made me want to have more!

Truffle fries ($12) came in a pretty good portion for two too but I feel it can be a miss. Truffle taste isn't as aromatic as I thought it will be.

Sea salt chocolate tart ($5) was mediocre too, the chocolate actually melted soon after it was served which makes it hard to consume. Paul and carpenter and cook definitely serve nicer chocolate tarts.

This isn't the best brunch cafe I've tried, but it deserves a mention for its wallet-friendly menu (most of the items cost less than $15 and they serve at nett prices) as well as its accessibility, just walking distance from kovan mrt. I would advise you to make a trip down early if you decide to visit on a weekend (:

Dear me

There's a saying, 'when the tough gets going, the going gets tough.'

I know you've had a pretty bad day, when things just didn't go smoothly and you feel like crushing your head and pulling your hair out. I know you didn't expect a day to be such...... speechless. But remember the above sentence, storm will pass and you will see the rainbow.

Definitely and surely heading back to D.O.C for other waffles! Heads up to y'all, visit there on a weekday noon if you want because it was super packed on a weekend noon when I went.

Restore living for a chilled coffee session because it was so much quieter as compared to D.O.C! Love the interior of this themed cafe.

Carpenter and Cook

Hi readers, I finally had the time to update this mundane space again after another hectic week. And so, I finally visited carpenter and cook after so many failed attempts!

Ordered passionfruit meringue tart, sea salt chocolate tart and sakura tea, total bill costing $18. I had high expectations of the tarts and they didn't disappoint me at all! Unlike the common lemon meringue tart, passionfruit gave a more unique taste. Whereas for the sea salt chocolate tart, the slight saltiness only came in at aftermath which I like a lot because I still could taste the bittersweet chocolate before it.

Although it was a friday night, we were lucky enough to have come earlier before the crowd came. Just look how lovely this cafe is, filled with vintage furniture and old school items.

 

Last but not least, a photo of us <3 (:

Hello March

So this was how my february was like.....

It was a short month filled with ups and downs. I mean, how is that possible to be happy every single day. You get mad over people you meet at work, you get upset over arguments or things just happen like this, inevitable. However what keeps me always going is to look at the brighter side of life and stay optimistic.

Also, today marks the official one month of working as a hr coordinator yay!!!

Are you happy for me?!?!?!?!?

Well, even if you're not, I'm very happy for myself. I haven't tried waking up punctually everyday at 7.30am from monday to friday without fail. This is also the first full time job I truly feel happy and comfortable at, something I like to do. The only that I need to learn is to be less emotional and sentimental, sometimes that just doesn't benefit you.

Okay so happy march everyone! Till then x (though I'm contemplating if I should shut this space down due to time constraint).
