You would be totally missing out if you have not savoured KARA‘s signature mochi waffles with Sogurt’s artisanal froyo! It’s our third time back at KARA and this time around we tried out some of their new menu items. What’s KARA? KARA is a Café and Dessert Bar which is located along Bukit Timah Road.

Celebrating a Harry Potter-themed Birthday at Platform 1094
Just before we usher in 2019, I met up with my favourite pals whom we have met since college. Eunice’s birthday was way over but we decided to have a get together to celebrate her 30th anyway. Platform 1094 This time, I brought them to Platform 1094 along Serangoon Road. I was amazed that they did not know about this Whimsical Harry Potter-like cafe which took Singapore by storm a couple of years back ago. Why 1094? It is because the unit address of this cafe is 1094 Serangoon Road. This is one of those themed cafes in Singapore where you can stunning Instagram photos. The food not only looks…

It’s been 18 years already and if you were to ask me which is my favourite eatery or cafe in the west, I probably couldn’t give you an answer.

Oporto : Forget about Fried Chicken, Try These Flame-Grilled Portuguese Chicken
The new shopping mall at Holland Village – Holland Piazza, has enlivened the food scene in this precinct. If you haven’t check out at Holland Village for a long time, this is the time to rediscover this dining enclave again.
