My girlfriend and I are big steak lovers and we always make it a point to check out good steak restaurants in every city that we visit. During a recent trip to Hong Kong, we had a very very good steak at Blue Butcher Bar & Restaurant, a meathouse that sources its meat from farms that do not compromise on quality, and hang the meat in-house using age-old recipes together with modern techniques.
Fret not if you missed Reebonz’s The Big Fat X’mas Sale last week. The folks at Reebonz Singapore, the renown and largest online luxury shopping site, have lined up a series of Christmas specials this festive season!
We are delighted to be Reebonz’s official ambassador for Christmas 2013, and together, we have curated a special series of gift guide – with different categories and even one for a lower budget – for those who need some inspirations on what to get for your loved ones this Christmas.
There are different promotions everyday, and you are in for lots of surprises from Reebonz. For today, the 12-Days-of-Christmas promotion is an amazing ADDITIONAL 12% OFF for anything you purchase online at Reebonz, with no minimum purchased needed. How awesome is that?
When it comes to picking the perfect present for your man, it cannot get any easier because there are only so many things that a man needs – wallet, watch, belt, name card holder, Apple iPad leather case… Our top picks for men are the very classy Saint Laurent Bi-Fold Flap Wallet and versatile Paul Smith Reversible Belt.
Getting a gift for women is a little trickier. There are more factors to consider, like her favourite brands and colours. In Celine Medium Luggage we trust, and the one in a gorgeous royal blue is one Christmas present so lavish that will have your lady smile in her sleep. And for something sexy, pick the Saint Laurent Cassandre Clutch in a fiery crimson.
And for the discerning ones who have a more conscious budget, the joy of giving spreads on with our picks for ‘Gifts under S$500’. At Reebonz, you can definitely find something for everyone. We really like how understated yet chic the Saint Laurent Classic Marquage iPad Sleeve is, and is suitable for both genders. Else, the McQ by Alexander McQueen Razor Blade Scarf is the easily the best investment for endless fashion possibilities.
To see our entire list of recommended gifts, check out the Reebonz x ladyironchef gift guide.

Feverishly sprouting up around the island are cocktails bars dotting the nightlife scene. But what’s hot and what’s not? Thanks to 28 Hong Kong Street (who have done Singapore proud) by bagging the #10 position in World’s 50 Best Bars 2013, new entry bars now have a new benchmark.
Here’s our pick of five hot new bars in Singapore that up the ante.
Pezzo Pizza brings freshly made pizzas served by the slice just like the pizza joints in the Big Apple – New York City. It is affordable and convenient making it the perfect pick-me-up lunch, snack or dinner to hit the spot and satisfy your pizza cravings.
What I love about Pezzo is its consistently strong sense of identity. The Pezzo brand is all about delivering a carnival in every bite no matter the occasion. From its website www.pezzo.com.sg, to the whimsical logo and packaging of the pizza boxes as well as the store decor – Pezzo is all about being bright, cheerful, fun and on top of it all tasty.
While crowd favourites are the usual suspects like the classic Pepperoni Party, Hola Hawaiian and local flavour Sambal Ikan Bilis, the ones that had us particularly salivating were the Hot Chick and Chicken Delight. The former is a flavourful combination of spicy chicken strips, cheddar & mozzarella, green & red peppers, and topped with a special punchy chili sauce. The Chicken Delight, on the other hand, leans towards the healthier-side with toppings of chicken breast strips, onions, mushrooms and turkey bacon.
Also make sure to grab a slice of the Ho Ho Hola Hawaiian which has been specially created for Christmas this year! With a wide selection of over 20 flavours, it is always a new and exciting experience at Pezzo. A slice of pizza is affordably-priced at S$4.50, while a whole pizza of 6 slices is S$24.90.
Pezzo has 13 easily accessible pizza-by-the-slice kiosks island-wide and 6 of them are delivery stores perfect for those who want to throw a pizza party. The kiosks are all located in key locations, including Ion Orchard, JEM, The Arcade, The Star Vista, Bedok Mall, as well as a dine-in outlet at Woodlands Exchange. Click here for the list of Pezzo’s kiosk locations.
Call +65 6665 6565 for pizza delivery or visit www.pezzo.com.sg for more details.

Whenever we hear about a new café, it is more often than not a coffee speciality house. Yet, Teakha at Sheung Wan chose a different path which offers the world an impressive range of organic tea like Masala Chai, Thai iced tea, Jasmine Blossoms, and Hoji au Lait, and Forest Black Tea.
It is the season of giving again, and everyone is basking in the joyous occasion to celebrate. To us, the best thing about Christmas is celebrating with family and friends, indulging in good food and pampering our loved ones.

Chachawan is a collaboration between restaurateur Yenn Wong and Chef Adam Cliff, and is one of the newest Thai restaurants in Hong Kong. It specialises in Issan Cuisine from the North-Eastern region of Thailand. For those of you who are not familiar with Issan food, it focuses mainly on grilled meats and salads which have a balanced of sour, salty and spicy flavours.
Garlic Bread, Spicy Drumlets, Pepperoni Pizza, Curry Zazzle Baked Rice… at the mention of these and it will set a curve on everyone’s lips. Oh, how we all love Pizza Hut, a household name that is so familiar and one that we all grew up with! But this Christmas, apart from these classic favourites, get ready to embark on a tantalising journey with Pizza Hut as we sit back, relax and cosy up for a heartening meal with several festive specials.
Last week, I had an early Christmas celebration with 50 of my readers at Pizza Hut. We were all in for plates after plates of happy food – Christmas Platter, Criss Cross Fries, Truffle Mushroom Baked Pasta, Roasted Chicken Leg and the new Christmas Double Decker Pizza!
We are also giving away 2 X S$50 vouchers, read more to find out how you can win them.
