When I received my first beauty box from Bellabox, I was excited, curious and puzzled altogether. The excitement and curiosity co-exist because I had zero clue about the surprise that awaited me, and I was puzzled because I never understood the kind of happiness this now-famous beauty box has brought so many people around the world.

For a monthly subscription, you get a box of beauty goodies to sample, and as said, they come in the form of little surprises – products that are newly launched in the market, products that are popular and trending, products with benefits that are otherwise unbeknownst to consumers… they remind me of omakase where chefs will decide the menu for dinners based on his reading on the guests’ tastes and preferences, and the ingredients used might change according to what is best on the market. The best part is, of course, you really never know what you will receive.

Bellabox’s theme for April is Beauty Goodness, and they are celebrating all things yummy. Other than beauty and lifestyle products, the April’s box also features a recipe of Laurent Bernard’s famous chocolate souffle. Be sure to subscribe to Bellabox this month!

Riders Cafe Bukit Timah Saddle Club Singapore

Death by Chocolate Cake

There are some places we go to because of one specific dish. The ones that make you crave for it all the time. The ones you will visit even if the place is located in an inaccessible area. One of them, for me, is the Death by Chocolate Cake ($12) at Rider’s Cafe.

Riders Cafe

Rider’s Cafe at Bukit Timah Saddle Club needs no introduction. It is one of the most popular brunch spots in Singapore and everyone knows about them. If you have never been there before, you must go there for brunch this weekend. And if it has been a while since you last went, it is definitely time to go back again.

Cadbury Dairy Milk’s Marvellous Creations Chocolate + Giveaway

AdvertorialCadbury Marvellous Creations

Cadbury Dairy Milk is a household name. People around me know that I have a sweet tooth, and I love (in a head-over-heels-kind-of-way) chocolates. Cadbury chocolate is my best friend and I always make sure to stock up my fridge with my favourite original milk chocolate flavour and Cadbury Dairy Milk Hazelnut.

Being a big fan of Cadbury chocolate, imagine my happiness when they approached me to be an ambassador for Cadbury Dairy Milk’s new Marvellous Creations.

For a start, let me tell you more about the Marvellous Creations from Cadbury Dairy Milk. Unlike the usual Cadbury chocolates that come with nuts, the Marvellous Creations are filled with the wackiest possible ingredients: Jelly Crunchie Bits, Jelly Popping Candy Beanies, and Peanut Toffee Cookie. We are very lucky that Singapore is the second country in the world (after Australia) to have the Marvellous Creations. Trust me on this. You need to get them and try it for yourself.

Cadbury Blogger Party

[ Giveaway ] We will be giving away 5 hampers of Marvellous Creations – worth S$50 each. All you need to do is to answer a simple question (read more information below) and leave a comment.  Also, at the end of this post, I will also be sharing how you can charter the Joyrider – an awesome Cadbury bus – for an hour of partying with your friends.

Tim Ho Wan, the cheapest 1 Michelin Star dim sum restaurant from Hong Kong, is opening in Singapore at The Atrium @ Orchard, Plaza Singapura today. Opened by Chef Mak Kwai Pui (previously from Lung King Heen at Four Seasons Hong Kong), Tim Ho Wan has gained a strong following over the years and long queues are a common sight at his restaurants.

We got a sneak preview at a media tasting last night. Here are some of the highlights from the much anticipated Tim Ho Wan in Singapore.

SPRMRKT

SPRMRKT prides itself on redefining your local supermarket experience. It is a space where food, retail and art mingle together. You can enjoy a cosy meal at the bistro while shopping for daily necessities and random gifts.

The food is simple and unpretentious. There are two menus at SPRMRKT. The all-day breakfast menu dishes out the usual favourites such as Eggs Benedict ($14) and Breakfast Croissant ($7) everyday. The ala carte menu, on the other hand, changes daily and it offers a selection of salads, soup, and mains. Most of the items are priced reasonably below $20. For those who are working in the central business district, SPRMRKT is a nice place to grab a quick lunch.

Tin Lung Heen

At level 102 of The Ritz-Carlton Hong Kong, Tin Lung Heen is probably one of the highest, if not the highest, Chinese restaurants in the world. While there are plenty of good Cantonese restaurants in Hong Kong, Tin Lung Heen is a popular venue as it not only delivers a modern interpretation of Cantonese food, it also has a spectacular view of Hong Kong.

Laduree to open in Singapore on 15 April

Laduree Singapore

It is about time. Laduree, the famous French Patisserie, is finally opening in Singapore at Takashimaya on 15 April 2013. Australia got their first Laduree store in September last year. Even Hong Kong got it earlier than us when Laduree opened a store at Harbour City last December. Now, we can finally satisfy our macarons cravings without having to fly to Paris. I am so excited about the opening of Laduree in Singapore. I am pretty sure that there will be a long queue for at least the first few weeks, and I hope that this will start a new macaron trend here.
