FOODIE ADVENTURE E02

I finally had time to go on yet another foodie adventure and this time, thanks to the cousin's suggestion, I went to Nana's Green Tea located on the third floor of Plaza Singapura's new wing. (-:

I didn't try any of their main dish since I had dinner at The Soup Spoon instead but Alicia tried their Locomoco Don and said it was pretty good. Its beef, by the way, which pretty much explains why I didn't try it for myself.

Amanda and I tried their Matcha & White Pearl Parfait while Alicia had Berry Parfait.


I personally enjoyed my dessert but Alicia didn't quite like hers. The berries were really sour and when you reach the middle layer of whiteness (which would inevitably be mixed with your berries) just began to taste like yoghurt.

There's probably a reason why they're known for their green tea because my matcha ice-cream didn't fail me. The azuki (red bean) was really authentic as well. It was a balanced mixture of red bean and green tea all in one. Right at the bottom of the glass is their traditional kanten jelly which is tasteless on its own but goes really well when you eat it with the ice-cream. The whiteness in the middle actually tasted like vanilla ice-cream so it was double goodness for me.

Anyway, it was a treat from Amanda so I'm not really sure of the pricing. If I remember correctly, it would be around $11.90. Might sound a bit pricey but I think its worth a try nonetheless. :-)

We also received rather good service! Didn't have to wait for long for the waiter to serve us. I was really satisfied. I didn't really like the ambience. It was too... orangey for my liking but I guess it was quite a warm feeling still.

As usual, I forgot to take a picture with the cousins. :-( I always tell myself to take photos with Amanda when we hang out (since every meeting is precious to me) but I always forget.

Oh well! Shall make myself feel better since they're coming over tonight for some drinks! ♡

I remember

It's Sunday night all over again. I can hear slight drizzle against the window panes and I'm watching the lights on the other building go out. People must be heading to bed and I wonder: Do they dread waking up to Monday? Do they hate Monday? Do their bodies feel unusually heavy on Monday mornings? Do they drag their feet into office? It was a surprisingly tough day today. But it reminded me of the conversations I had with Ains. " You're really too nice. That's why people always bully you, " she said. I knew this for a long time but I was thinking of the best way to construe my personality without sounding like a pushover because I'm not. I simply developed a sizable threshold for bullshit over the years. I suppose it is my way of maintaining zen and a passive way to show I'm backing down because I believe there's no reason putting up a fight against anyone who has decided not to give me a real chance even before the argument began. To some, when I...

You learn to live with your crazy

I'm crazy, just slightly  crazy. I'm crazy but maybe I'm not crazy after all? I say the most bizarre things. I walk around with messy hair. I dress down on Mondays and dress up on Fridays. I talk shit with and to my friends. I stuff my face into Shelty’s belly every night. I have a weird obsession with stickers and clouds.  I love walking around bare-footed. I love wearing my pyjamas. I love long walks, especially the ones that could last for hours. I love rolling in bed on Saturday nights while every one else is out.  I’m strange like that. Which makes me feel like a misfit in this society that’s all about fitting in. I don’t depend on technology even though I use an iPhone 6: I keep a handwritten diary, I write letters, I record my daily expenditure, I take notes with a pen and paper, I print my readings if possible, I use highlighters and liquid paper, and the list could go on. Yet I depend on technology at the same time: I scroll through Instagram every mo...

2021

Hello, 2022. Traditionally, this post would have been published on the last day of the year (as a reflection of some sorts) or the first day of the new year (to set out some new goals). But I had spent the last 2 days surrounded by good people and would not have it any other day. But here we are – second day into the new year and back to work when Monday comes around again. Sometimes, it feels like a lot has changed yet nothing has really changed at all.  All things considered, 2021 was not the best year but it was a good year. I felt like I had truly stepped into the world of adulting. This came in the form of looking after my family, including doggo, navigating the corporate world, and getting my act together for the most part. Summing up 2021:  Full-time adult, part-time child There is so much subliminal messaging out there that tells us we have to be at a certain point in our life by the time we reach a certain age. And growing up in a society constantly reminded me I...
