Oriole Cafe & Bar

Dear was entitled to a off day today due to boxing day which falls on Saturday, so I decided to take a day leave too!

This is my Christmas present from Dearest! ♥

I've heard quite a bit about Oriole Cafe & Bar, so we decided to check out this place! It was located right beside the newly-opened 313@Somerset, on the first level of Pan Pacific Serviced Suites.

Swirly lights and orangey setting!

For drinks, I ordered their hot Cappuccino.

They served quality coffee beverages and cocktails!

And Dear ordered their Iced Mint Mocca.

Dear's Beef Cheek Tagliatelle.

The beef is tender, with the right amount of fats.

And here is my signature beer battered Fish and Chips.

It came in a servings of 3 fish fillets and wedges in a round basket.

Overall, this place is worth at least a visit. The food is affordable with everything below $15 even though it is situated in a bustling part of town area.

Bintan Lagoon

We are going for a short getaway to Bintan Lagoon from the 21st - 23th January 2010!!

Meeting up with Lynn and Diana

Ion Orchard, Takashimaya, Heeren, 313@Somerset

Lynn and I meet up for the Kielh's events at Ion Orchard after work. We are entitled to a free door gifts worth up to $25! It consists of a olive fruit oil nourishing shampoo and a hair conditioner.

After the event, Diana joined us for dinner at Waraku located at Heeren.

Mr Curry at The Central

Mr Curry at The Central

After reading so many positive reviews about Ramen Santouka, a Japanese ramen franchise located in The Central, we decided to pop by there for dinner after work.

But to our GREAT disappointment, they are closed at 4pm for the day due to meeting!!

In the end, we stumbled across a Japanese restaurant called Mr Curry which is part of the Waraku chain. As we first entered, what struck us the most was the lovely concept and decorations. And the wide variety of curry dishes and desserts to choose from left us spoilt for choice!

We ordered the Curry Ramen, Seafood Pan Nabe and Calamari. The Curry Ramen I have ordered is disappointing. It was an exact replica of curry maggie mee! As for the Seafood Pan Nabe and Calamari, it was satisfying.

We take a stroll along Singapore River before heading home.

Holga 135BC 35mm Camera

Timbre Flea Market, Orchard Central, 313@Somerset

Chocolate in the making.

In the late afternoon, we headed to Timbre Flea Market to collect Dear's Holga camera!

And I bought a gorgeous studded bag at $23 from one of the stores located there!

He named his new toy ''小红''..

We dined at Ajiman Ramen & Dining located at Orchard Central Level 3.

I still prefer the ramen from Ajisan!

And if you do notice, their name look abit similar.






We tried the chocolate mint ice cream from Cold Rock Ice Creamery located at 313@Somerset. It cost $7.50 for a cone with double scoop of ice cream. There is nothing special about it and I'm not sure if it's worth the price they charge.

Dear is playing and trying out his new toy.

And.......

I will post photos taken from the Holga Camera soon!!

Udders

Ice-cream never fails to put a smile on my face...

We had Mao Shan Wang Durian, Champion Cempedak, Earl Grey and Awesomely Chocolate.

But but...

I just do not find the ice cream here satisfying.
