Jumbo Seafood is a household name when it comes to having seafood in Singapore. With numerous branches and a strong brand-name, it is safe to say that they are one of the most famous Chinese seafood restaurants in town.

You know the food has to be good when a restaurant gets booked well in advance despite being housed in a location away from the bustling office crowd. The tranquillity is lost once inside the restaurant. A waitress piles her arms with several dishes, hastily serving them up before disappearing behind the kitchen doors.
Restaurant Ember at Hotel 1929 serves modern European cuisine, and it is not a secret that they have one of the best set lunches in Singapore.
Colgate SlimSoft Toothbrush + Party Invitation
Advertorial
People are often only aware of and receptive towards reality when bad things happen. And this can be taken in control by implementing preventive measures for the many aspects in our lives. Taking good care of our teeth is one – everyone should inculcate good oral hygiene in our daily habits before cavities and unhealthy gums say hello.
Since my recent visit to the dentist, it struck me that I ought to take better care of my teeth – especially when I love sweet stuff so very much. And this is apart from all the other crazy food I eat everyday.
After discovering how using a softer toothbrush is vital, I’ve been religiously using the new Colgate SlimSoft which, boasts extra soft bristles. Of course, it is impossible to see an immediate improvement in the teeth condition, but after switching to the Colgate SlimSoft, my gums feel less sore, and they don’t bleed as often as before.
Also, the good people at Colgate-Palmolive are throwing a party for my readers on 30th June, read on to find out how you can join us!

Words and photographs by Jolene Koh of Cupcake Weekend
On the last week of May I treaded on nippon ground despite the many incessant warnings of radiation scares and it was a risk well taken. If a city could be a person then I was extremely impressed by Tokyo. She is indeed very magical with so much to explore, taste & feel. Tokyo is undoubtedly my Paris in Asia.
Here’s a quick travel guide on Things to do in Tokyo for five days.
Roadhouse American Diner
Roadhouse Restaurant (formerly Cafe Hacienda) at Dempsey Road is a modern American Diner — opened by the Prive Group — that serves hearty food in a rustic yet contemporary setting. It is one of the few restaurants in Singapore that uses Josper Grill to char-grill their meats and burger patties.
While I’d been meaning to try the food for some time now, because of a busy schedule, I only managed to visit it recently. After eating there, I have to say Roadhouse is a place where you can go for weekend brunch with your family; or a nice dinner with a group of friends.
Nylon Coffee Roasters Everton Park
How many people can say that they are happy at what they are doing? Not many. But I am quite sure the folks at Nylon Coffee Roasters can do that, as they are truly passionate about their coffee.
They have taken over a small shophouse and created a lovely coffee paradise in the sleepy Everton Park Estate. Who would have thought that cafes could survive in a heartland residential area?
They roast their own beans, they talk about coffee as if reciting poetry, and they serve your cuppa with lots of love. One of the best coffees in Singapore? Yes, I think so.

Being a food blogger means there is an array of food to try, and while the different types of cuisines satisfy the glutton in me, it is not necessarily a good thing. There are actually a lot of food that are bad for our teeth.
Lately, I did a little research on ‘teeth sensitivity’ as I have been experiencing sharp pains when I eat certain kinds of food. One of my discoveries includes the fact that regular consumption of food with high acidity (or acid content) is a common attribution to sensitivity. It is only then I realised that citrus fruits, tomatoes, and tea – all of which I consume on a daily basis – can cause enamel erosion.
Through this, I became more interested in learning how to take proper care of my teeth, and I would like to take this chance to share with you 5 important Oral Hygiene Tips for healthy and white teeth.
