sweet toothing : ice cream frenzy




Drove mom and sis to this area for their hair cut and decided to drop by this ice-cream bar before we go back home.  There's a wide range of home made gelatos for us to choose from and mom chose Blueberries Blessings, sis chose Durian (can't remember it's name) and I chose almond with wolf berries to go with our hot waffle... Yum Yum.

misty love: kusatsu onsen

I was there in 2009 during Autumn.  A place that I long to visit again.  Located in the central Japan in Gunma prefecture.  This is one of the famous Onsen location in Japan, I saw people from other parts of Japan traveled all the way here to enjoy soaking themselves in the 100% pure natural spring water.  Walking along the misty street, you will be able to find delicious local delicacies there.  Please don't forget to get a box of Onsen Manju before you leave this beautiful place.

cooling effect for hot day: lychee ice set


The weather is so so so hot out there and after spending half of my days walking under the hot sun.  I really long for some cooling, refreshing dessert to cool down.

cheery orange: harris hotel



A fun and enriching company retreat happened on last weekend at Batam.  We stayed in this wonderful hotel which is so clean, bright and surrounded by warm and happy staffs.  Yes, that include the security guards who stationed outside the hotel.

a&w, please come back...


Ever since the last A&W closed down in Singapore, we have to go over to neighbour country like Malaysia or Batam to satiate our craving for Root beer, served in chilled, frosted mug.  I wish A&W will make their way back again to Singapore...  I wish... I wish...

icy experience


I can't help it but walked into this nicely decorated dessert shop which just open it's door near my office.  I am not a great fan of ice, but the Taiwanese Sweet Potato Balls sure do attracts me.

Finally, a chance to have tea in TWG.  Personally, I do find their tea set's price slightly on the high side, but Sis told me something that, we should LTE (Live to Eat) hahaha...  I really love the ambiance and the wide selection of teas they have.  I would love to come back again to try more new tea.
