May's Favourite

I have seen a lot bloggers and youtube beauty gurus share about their favourites of the month; since it's my birthday month I will write about my May's favourites, as I received birthday gifts and some of my own purchases. So I thought I would share the things or products that I really like.

I received this yesterday as my late birthday present, it's pastel pink earphone that I've been searching everywhere! Thanks cousin!

Received a free gift from Sephora on birthday month. A cute little makeup palette.

I have always wanted a vintage satchel style bag, I've been eyeing such satchel style from Cambridge Satchel to Mulberry Alexa but those are pricey bag brand, so finally this Fossil satchel caught my eye and it's one of my birthday gifts =)

Shiseido Maquillage Face Creator from my Uni friends. Five different colours for cheeks and face for contour and highlight effect.

My recent accessories purchase. I like pairing statement accessories to feminine outfits, it is the easiest way to add a little glam or flavor to any simple outfit.

This cute musical note earrings from my colleagues, I really like it!

 

 

White Musk Libertine by Leona Lewis, Wild Rose hand cream, Strawberry body puree.

 

And the last favourite item will be my nerdy black frame glasses! My first RayBan and I love it =)

Food Confessions

I know my blog has been missing in action recently and I have now realized that I did not write any post in the past month and May is coming to an end...! I'm back! This post I'll recommend some nice places that will serve you excellent food for after work dinner with colleagues or friends. When I was scrolling through pictures of sumptuous meals I had in May on my phone, I think that possible I have already gained some weight recently :(

Anyway the first place I will recommend for Japanese food/ ramen:

Tampopo

391 Orchard Road

#B2-33 Takashimaya Shopping Centre

The pork cutlet has reasonably crispy crust and the meat is so soft and tender it was served separately and I always come back for it although the price seems a little high compared to other Japanese restaurant.

For Mother's Day celebration, went to TGI Fridays for a relax and amazing dinner.

Wisma Jotic 2 Jalan Ayer Molek
80000 Johor Bahru

Baked Potato Skins with Cheddar and Bacon is definitely a must-try appetizer. I have heard that there's frozen product version of this potato skin from TGI Fridays can be found in Walmart but...not in here (>.<)

So here are both the best main course I have ever had at TGI Fridays: Sirloin Steak with Chimichurri Pesto & Beef Ribs with tangy barbecue sauce! The full rack of beef ribs is expertly cooked to ensure they're fall-off-the-bone tender. Highly recommended!

Then it's my personal favourite ice-cream in Marche, Movenpick. =)

#B1-39-45, 313@ Somerset

I picked the Chocolate flavor and my friend's ice cream in hazelnut, they told me the hazelnut-based ice cream tasted just like Kinder Bueno...It was nice I think?? =D

Grilled Sirloin Steak was actually not bad but...compared to TGI Fridays' I prefer......the latter.

And here's meal at MEDZ, a place with same concept as Marche, and it is like Marche gone Mediterranean.  It offers a more diverse dining experience with different stations offering Spanish, Moroccan, French, Turkish, Greek and Mediterranean cuisine.

#B2-01/03 Orchard Central, 181 Orchard Rd

Good ambience~

I recommend Grilled Salmon and ROSTI! I have tried Rosti from Marche, and it was too oily for my liking but the Rosti here was crisp at the surface not that oily as compared to Marche. I really like it (!!) until we made a second order. =D

Itacho Sushi
2 Jurong East Central 1

#02-15 JCube

I think I have already talked about this place in my previous food post, anyway it is famous for their 40 cents soy salmon sushi. Itacho is definitely a place for quality and tasty sushi.

BUT....when it comes to their ice-cream, we ordered the black sesame ice-cream and the spoon that came with it surprised us...ice-cream prepared only for kids?

Then on my birthday, the celebration took place at Harry's at Chijmes. I had Chicken Cordon Bleu, comment on the food? erm...quite okay...haha.

So ya,  these places I'll recommend you to pay a visit if you haven't tried or you could recommend me other nice places to eat by leaving a comment below. =)
