#singapore
#highlyrecommended
▶︎▶︎▶︎Library@Orchard is located at #03-12 & #04-11 Orchardgateway Singapore, which is strategically located in the heart of town - an excellent n modern must-visit spot for locals and tourists.👍🏻👍🏻✨The library was well designed with architectural interior layout and developed a range of prototypes on ideas of space design, and the arc-curved book shelves concept made visitors walking through a sequence of space experience in the library, a relax and cosy study environment!⭐️⭐️⭐️
The most attracted area to me💫💫💫the reading spots and seats in front the huge windows, while having a quiet reading time, will be able to enjoy the nice view as well. And, there’s even private space in wooden-round curvy cubicles.😘👍🏻✨Overall, Library@Orchard is comfortable n spacious atmosphere for studing n reading.

Aston Specialities Western Delights
#singapore
Aston's menu offers a delightful array of choices, and one of the standout options is the Hickory BBQ Chicken. This dish is a flavor explosion, featuring succulent and tender chicken slathered in a rich and smoky hickory BBQ sauce. To accompany the main dish, you can choose from a variety of delectable side dishes. The Mac and Cheese is a beloved classic, offering a creamy, cheesy, and indulgent experience. Baked Potatoes are another fantastic choice, with their crispy skin and fluffy, buttery interior. If you're in the mood for something a bit lighter, Aston's offers a Garden Salad, a refreshing medley of crisp, fresh greens and colorful vegetables.
One aspect that added to the positive experience was the friendly service provided by the staff who served us. Their warm and welcoming demeanor made our dining experience even more enjoyable. It's safe to say that our visit to Astons was a memorable one, and we'll definitely be returning soon to savor more of their delicious offerings.

Food Republic Citysquare Mall
#singapore
Food Republic is a popular food court chain in Singapore known for its diverse and delicious array of hawker-style dishes. You can find dishes from different Asian cuisines, including Chinese, Malay, Indian, and more. This diversity reflects Singapore's multicultural food scene. Among all, I like this outlet the most. Despite being indoors, its interior design reflects the culture and heritage of Singapore, creating a vibrant and culturally rich atmosphere. Popular stalls are Lao Huo Tang Chinese Soup, Qiu Lian Ban Mee, Pepper Lunch, Ayam Bakar, Nasi Ayam Penyet, Nasi Padang and more. It could be pricier than other food court, overall, the hits far outweighed the misses.

The best cafe in singapore hidden in orchard
#wheretogo 🏡 For you People — 181 Orchard Rd, #04 -22 Orchard Central Singapore 238896.
Okay my friend recently took me to FYP (For You People) Cafe for lunch & I was SHOCKED 😳✋🏼 Like Its cute & all with the glamping theme but THE FOOOOD is the main highlight of this post!
With so many cafes coming up & doing mostly the same thing, I was just expecting the usual standard cafe food, nothing special. BUT I WAS WRONG 😭😍🔥
Here's what we ordered:
01 Big Big Fries with mentaiko & cheese 🍟🧀
100000/10 ⭐️ This is probably the best fries i've ever had PERIOD. It was so crispy, the perfect thickness & also fluffy inside?! 🥹 It kind of reminds me of bitting into a tatter totes like its BETTER THAN FRIES but in fries form 👀 The cherry on top was the mentaiko sauce & the cheese sauce, I really enjoyed the mentaiko sauce so when I visit them again I'll do a full mentaiko instead of the half & half.
02 Steak Bites
100000/10 ⭐️ Im literally not even exaggerating my rating, this steak bite is literally high quality. It was DELICIOUS 🥩 (its done in medium rare — they only offer medium rare) It was seasoned & charred to perfection too.
Honestly, I've been to actual steak house & this cafe steak bites could literally beat a true steakhouse steak that's how yummy it was 🥹🧚♀️
03 Beef & cheese bagel
11/10 I only had a bite and it was 💯 The bagel was toasted to perfection yet it was fluffy and soft too. They were also really generous with the cheese & beef filling 🐄 They had so many option for the bagel i'll have to come back & try them all 😭
For a small cafe their coffee was well done, it was strong fragrant yet it wasnt too much. 💐
They also sell cookies and brownies which I did not get the chance to try cause Im on a diet 🏋️♀️ But just look at the selections they offer.... I will definitely have to visit again for them sweet treats 🍪
☘️ Therapeutic Time with Terrarium in SG 🌿
We had a terrific team time building our own open terrarium today, getting close to nature and de-stress with a 2-hour workshop.
It was a small class size and beginner friendly. The Sppfy's team provided useful knowledge on terrarium plants and care guides, while we learnt about different terrarium styles, succulents and cacti, materials, and personalized care tips.
We managed to:
🪴 Enjoy the studio entirely to ourselves
🪴 Work with a range of materials and tools to build the look we could ever imagine
🪴 Get unlimited use of basic terrarium materials (plants, rocks, pebbles, gravels, dried flowers and coloured preserved reindeer moss)
🪴 Receive a small white pot terrarium as a beautiful memory
Highly recommended activity if you just need some quiet time for yourself or quality time with your friends, family or colleagues! 😌

Highlight - High quality chocolate

While shopping at the takashimaya basement area, my hubby and I came across the Godiva chocolate. The quality of their chocolate is delicious. Occasionally, we will splurge and buy some back to enjoy while watching movies at home together. Their Belgium chocolate is really very delicious that you have to try it at least once. Once you try it, you will never stop eating them. I love the packaging of the chocolate. The packaging is very nice and you can buy it as a gift to your friends too.

Hai Di Lao dinner

Ambiance / highlights - steamboat dinner at an air-conditioned restaurant
Rating - 5/5
My hubby and I, together with some of our friends, we went to the Hai Di Lao at the Plaza Singapura. My favorite is the sliced fish and the sliced meat while my friends favorite was the cheese sausage. We ordered quite a substantial amount of food. We managed to finish the food on time and there was discount given to us. We enjoyed dining at the restaurant as the ambiance was good. It was not too cramped, and the service was top notch. The crew came to us almost immediately when we needed help. With their great food and excellent service, no wonder they are able to expand more outlets in Singapore.
Library at Orchard

Ambiance / highlights - library in orchard
Rating - 5/5
When my hubby told me there is a library inside the orchard mall, I was surprised. I thought that he was joking. But in fact he brought me there the other time. I then trusted him that there is really a library at the busy street of the orchard. The library was extremely quiet. I love the design of the library in spiral design. There is a round space in the middle of the library where you can rest there and read your books. The library is located at level 4 of the orchard getway mall. All the books were nearly arranged and classified according to the genre.
great top-notched dining…😋😋😋

🍃 Refreshed & Rejuvenated at Jewel Changi
Singapore, oh Singapore! You never fail to leave me mesmerized with your impressive and innovative architecture. We made sure to schedule our flight in the evening so we get to explore this jewel (pun intended) fuss-free.
Highlights:
The lush greeneries at the Shiseido Forest Valley and the HSBC Rain Vortex were absolutely wonderful. Picture perfect at almost every angle! When we were there, they had the Disney 100 year decorations up. The theme changes all the time, so look it up and plan accordingly!
Notable Shops:
Shiki Hototogisu Ramen (#B1-300)
- Delicious Michelin star ramen, paired with a brilliant view of the vortex!
Pokémon Center (#04-201/202)
- Did you know that this is the first Pokémon Center in Asia outside of Japan?
TIP:
1) Check in your luggage early! Or, if you have carry on luggages with you, we suggest dropping it at The Left Baggage at Level 1. Some attractions and some restaurants don't allow luggages, so be sure to check first.
2) There are Light and Sound showcase as well for the vortex! Check it out if your flight is at a later time:
Mon - Thur: 8, 9pm
Fri - Sun, public holidays: 8, 9 & 10pm

Lunch deal is a catch at Watami Dinning. This Ohyakodon set that comes with a soup, salad, and a drink cost less than 12 dollars.
the chicken, though fried, was tender and flavourful. together with the egg at the bottom, which makes tea dish a perfect combo.
Though I went after 2 p.m., the service was relatively slow. The dish took around 15 mins to be served, though the place was not crowded.

Chir Chir Fusion Chicken Factory
Chir Chir is a popular fried chicken chain originating from Seoul. The popular dishes are Garlicky Soy Fried Chicken, Honey Butter Chicken, Curry Powder Fried Chicken, Sour Cream and Onion, Cheesy Fondue Chicken, and more. Other than their signature fried chicken, they also serve good quality tobokki, seafood soup, and cheese fries. For drinks, I highly recommend Chir Cream Beer, it’s smooth and easy to drink. Beer and fried chicken are always a perfect match. There is a drink called Lady Killer on the menu, not sure what it is, would like to try it out some day. It’s about 2 minutes walking distance from MRT station.

The ToysRUs is definitely the kids toy paradise. Since I was young I will always visit the ToysRUs to look for toys and board games. It has become my go to place every weekend.

The shop is huge and there are a wide range of toys from soft toys, to Barbie dolls, to play doh. There is even a small corner for them to play their Lego there. The place is definitely one of the to go place if you are shopping present for children.

Shopping for parties
Address - SKP Supply Store, Junction 8 Shopping Centre, 9 Bishan Place, #04-05, Singapore 579837
This shop is a great place to stock up for your year-end Christmas parties as you can buy some of them in hulk and save quite a bit of money. I use the Christmas decor mainly as table decorations since their designs are quite nice. You can also find other party items like balloons, wrapping paper and ribbons, as well as disposable cutlery and utensils for guests to use. It’s a one-stop shop for all your large gathering needs!

Designer library
Address - Library@Orchard, Orchardgateway Shopping Centre, 277 Orchard Road, #03-12/#04-11, Singapore 238858
Nestled within Orchardgateway Shopping Centre is a very interestingly designed library that looks quite different from all the other libraries in Singapore. With curved shelves and a calming neutral overall tone, it sure is a very inviting place to read. There is even a small stage further inside where the library sometimes holds events like storytelling for children or book-signing.

2. Salmon skin maki - 10/10 Great texture and flavour! It was super delicious I wished I ordered more
3. Salmon Belly Sashimi - 10/10 The quality of the sashimi was great and fresh
4. Salmon Head - 6/10 The fish was not as meaty as I thought it would. And it was lacking taste.
5. Shiok Maki Gen 2 - 9/10 Very interesting dish! The taste was well balanced but lacking texture. Can't quite describe how it taste like but it was delicious!
6. Mental aburi salmon - 5/10 the salmon wasn't torched properly and there was a lack of texture. The mentai taste was lacking but it was still edible

Good pottery workshop experience, it was so much fun making my own ceramic cup. The instructors were very friendly and patient. They will guide you along the making process and make sure you won’t bring back a failed product. They are also great photographers and will help to take the best IG worthy photos of you. One session costs S$30 per person, plus additional S$10 for firing and glazing. Value for money. For beginners, you may choose a cup, mini vase, or bowl. At the end of the session, you can choose your own preferred colour for firing and glazing. There are a lot of samples on display at the studio for inspiration and ideas. Have to wait at least 3 months to collect the finished product. Mine turned out really beautiful. Highly recommended.
