Marmalade Pantry (Ion) | Windowsill In The Woods

Hello folks, I finally had 'me' time this weekend and took out a part of which to update this space! Restaurant and cafe hop with GJ two weeks back to three places, for lunch and desserts.


Seared scallop spaghetti with tiger prawn bisque ($24) for myself. This didn't surprise me but the prawns and scallops were the wow factors of this pasta!


GJ had the carbonara linguni ($24) which I personally thought it tasted a lot better than those mediocre ones out there. Maybe partly because it was accompanied by the thin sliced cheese.

Also brought GJ to one of the places which serves good tarts with the perks of the entertainer app which provides me with 1-for-1 deal for a pie and a pot of tea!

X

"Everywhere, there is love to be given and received. There are strangers with glints in their eyes, with stories to tell. There are friends who love as friends, and friends who love under the guise of friendship, hoping and waiting for a spark to ignite and intensity to grow. And then maybe, out there, somewhere is that one person, that one soulmate, that radiates a love that I cannot yet even imagine. Or maybe not."

My initial plan was to update this space regarding the few cafes/restaurants which I hopped past two weeks then my laziness kicked in because I had a long work week so I'll probably do so soon, before this coming week I hope.

P.S: I'm intending to get myself a new camera, either semi-pro or one which has interchangeable lens, any recommendation?

Roosevelt's Diner & Bar


Late lunch with juting two sundays ago at roosevelt's because I wanted to make full use of the entertainer app. 

The prawn burger was surprisingly good for someone who's never a fan of burger (but I love bread very weird I know) and the bbq chicken meat was very tender too. The only downside was we ordered too much fries and weren't able to finish them. You can actually top up additional $5 for truffles fries to your main courses so that saves you quite a fair bit of moolah and fries hahaha!

Will be updating soon about the insane foodie day I had with GJ hopefully as this week will be a hell hectic work week. Stay tuned!

Montigo

Here's my first july post dedicated to montigo bonding trip with the entire IIR division.

Initially, I had extremely mixed feelings for this trip as I do not know anyone from the north and east division and the fact that I'm relatively new as well doesn't make me feel very ease too. So we set off on last friday evening straight from office to tanah merah ferry terminal to batam!


Night view of montigo resort taken at the resort reception area.


Didn't manage to snap much pictures of the villa but it's mega huge! Spacious living room, bedroom, toilet and etc. The only con is probably it's so huge that it's a little scary for 3 people?


Yes and I forgot to mention that each villa has a private pool but I didn't have the time to soak and relax in the pool.


Complimentary breakfast the next morning and look at the amount of food we took which we were unable to finish :/


Fun colleagues of mine whom I stayed up with chilling, laughing and playing games the whole night at my villa! 


And here's my amazing race team which was grouped randomly. Okay wait, not exactly because emerson was the spy of my team and even wanted to sabotage me!

My first bonding trip with IIR colleagues was much better (and exhausting) than I've expected even though I didn't know anyone from other branches but glad that some of them are pretty friendly. Pre workshop and workshop up next week, well mixed feelings again because I will be meeting the entire RE not just my division.

Till then, goodnight all!
