Flower Pot Desserts

There was a point in time when someone thought to put desserts inside flower pots, crush cookies or Oreo biscuits into bits to use as ‘soil’, and stick an artificial plant or flower on it because it looks pretty cool.

Granted, we were amused and delighted when we had our first “flower pot dessert”.

With cafes and restaurant following suit on this trend, we went on a mission to hunt down the best ones in Singapore. Some places squish cakes inside their pots, some simply use cream or other fillings; they are really pretty varied.

Nevertheless, these 5 Flower Pot Desserts in Singapore to Try have proven to us that they not only look good, but they have a taste that supersedes its slightly gimmicky physical shell.

by / No Comments

Colony Farm To Fork

One of our favourite places to head to for buffets in Singapore is Colony. Located on level three of The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore, Colony is a well-appointed yet cosy restaurant offering the best of Singapore’s heritage cuisines. A dinner at Colony never disappoints.

We returned this week for Colony’s monthly “Farm To Fork” special, where monthly-exclusive dishes that are sustainable sourced, are brought right to your dining table. This promotion happens from now till June 2016.

Colony

In the month of March 2016, the featured sustainably farmed produce is the finest Irish beef by John Stone. This means that you can have free-flow quality beef steaks on top of the regular buffet spread. This is completely a steal!

And that’s not all. Quote “ladyironchef” when you make your reservation to receive a complimentary bottle of house wine for a minimum booking of 4 persons for the “Farm to Fork” promotion at Colony from Sundays to Thursdays between 21 March to 28 April 2016.

People are increasingly becoming interested and appreciative of a good cuppa, and a fantastic go-to beverage wherever we travel to is always a lovely hot latte.

Of course, there is a very stark and obvious price fluctuation between these major cities and they do in fact, reflect the cost and standard of living in that city itself. In this light-hearted article, we explore the prices of a cup of latte from a cafe or coffee house from 10 major cities in Asia Pacific.

So just How Much is a Cup of Latte in Asia Pacific? Let us find out in this latte index.
