Little Random Details About Me

I thought I'll be the first to blog about this place but I thought wrong hah. I happened to chance upon Symmetry on my way back from my weekend morning run, situated right at Jalan Kubor .  This is in between Bugis and Lavendar. It was still closed when I past by in the morning but the dolls outside caught my attention. Since we were looking for somewhere to eat, I suggested to Der to drop by in the afternoon. Despite the not so usual kind of location, I was surprised the place was actually bustling. There were even groups coming in with reservations as well. This place serves brunch, lunch and dinner.   I love the bar area. The decor of the place is really chic and cosy.  I ordered a smoothie which was to my liking but I thought was too pricey- $10 Comes with a beautifully crafted strawberry to resemble a rose. We shared a big breakfast - $24. Pricey once again but the portion to me was huge. From my seat, I could also see the chef putting in a lot of e...

My new friend. Coz he is afraid I'll be lonely when he is not around haha.

I love visiting new cafes especially cafes tucked away from all the hustle and bustle of the city. It makes me feel relaxed and for a moment forget that I'm in boring Singapore hah. Melba cafe at Goodman road is one such place.  We practically sat there for a whole afternoon just flipping through magazines. People with dogs can choose the Al Frasco dining and let their dogs run around the empty grass patch. We chose the indoor sofa seat.   We were like sitting in a glass house. The food was great too! The truffle fries were so fragrant. I couldn't stop eating it.   Eggs Florentine was perfect~ but the presentation made it seemed like the portion was soooo small. I guess it will be enough if you were to eat both. I love the Hollandaise sauce on the eggs. The "three little pigs" hah. Bacon, ham and pepperoni. Super sinful but the thin crust and generous serving of ingredients~~ woohooo I'll like to visit the place again :)

We had a nice dinner last night for Der's pre birthday celebration. I feel bad for not preparing anything. I even had to ask him for suggestion on places to have dinner. Must admit I'm really very bo sim this year :( But dinner turned out to be very good! Our combined effort in choosing a place hah. We decided on an Italian restaurant @ Portsdown road called Pietrasanta.    While waiting for our dinner to be served. Our started was Parma ham wrapped with cheese.  Freshly baked warm focaccia bread. Perfect ~ Definitely worth ordering. We couldn't stop eating it.  For our mains, we ordered a spicy salami pizza and a Korobuta pork rack to share. The pizza was GOOOD. I love how the crust wasn't too thick and also a little crispy as well. The salami goes so well, we finished the entire pizza, leaving no crust behind. The pork on the other hand was disappointing for der. It was just grilled over the fire with no sauces or what so ever on it. I g...
