Have a glass of wine, let your hair down and get ready to usher in the new year. Entering into 2018 would also mean looking back at 2017 and recollecting all those memorable moments that made you today. Whether it is a happy or sad episode, they enriched our lives and made us stronger. One of the…
Sending flowers to someone is akin to sending a message as flowers are infused with symbols and meaning. When you receive exotic flowers like tulip from someone, what is the messenger trying to imply? I had just received a customised bouquet from Litte Flower Hut. It consists a medley of Veronica, Rose, Ranunculus, Tulip, and Green bell….
IZA stems from the Japanese word ‘Izakaya’ which means gastropub. Initially, I thought that this is just another Japanese bar that serves sakes and beers with yakitori. But after I sat down to have a meal there, I realised that this isn’t your typical Japanese gastropub. IZA is your local version of Izakaya Bar with…
After going through the Basic Photography Course at Canon Imaging Academy and a couple of other photography workshops there, I was inspired to learn more about photography. Or rather, these courses and workshops had open me up to this new world of photography. Strangely, photography isn’t just about those confusing ISO, F-stop numbers or other manual settings. A lot…

We’ve finally come to the end of 2017. Time whizzes past us so quickly that sometimes we often forget to take a breather and reflect at each important stage in our lives. I guess December is always a good time to unwind and take a long deserved break from work. It is also the time…
I would grin from ear to ear whenever I receive flowers. Imagine the pure delight on my face when I receive a beautiful customised bouquet of flowers from That Flower Shop. This Singapore-based online florist nailed it right with delicate white Ranunculus, pink roses, Waxflower and Astrantia. Flowers are perishable, but I just love receiving them and displaying…
There’s something magical about the seaside where the sea and land meets. You hear the waves and feel the breeze that caressed your face. The smell of the salty sea invigorates you. You might be able to taste the saltiness of the sea water when it crashes against the shore, spritzing a spray of seawater…
I have been to Shangri-la Hotel Singapore at Orchard for several times now and every time I walked past this exquisite fine dining Chinese restaurant, I would wonder to myself if I could actually find some gold ‘treasures’ in there. Last week, I had the opportunity to visit this restaurant for a Dim Sum lunch….
