Aaryanna Is 10 Months & 4 Days Old!

Thursday, October 30, 2014

Little A turned 10 months old a couple of days ago, and she currently has 4 teeth which I can't seem to get a picture of because she is sooooo fidgety now! She can currently stand up by herself and walk around with help. Isn't it funny how one day our babies can't even flip themselves, and the next they're crawling and running around the house. It has been so much joy watching her grow and learn.

Little A screamin' at me cos I took my book away from her, hahaha.

Happy Little A playing with my book.

Blur picture but I find this absolutely hilarious! Just check out her expression, hehe.

THE FACE SHOP

1st Million Special Anniversary

The Face Shop celebrated their 1st Million Special anniversary last month at 1-Altitude, located just beside Raffles Place mrt.

I've only been to 1-Altitude at night before and it was the first time I was there in the day. The place is just as gorgeous in the day, as it is at night.

Check out the view from Level 61 (During the day)!

Pretty, isn't it?

Checkin' our their Raspberry Roots range which consists of their sleeping mask & eye gel which I find extremely useful especially for people who work or get home late on a day-to-day basis. Will post a review on the items up really soon so stay tuned *wink*

Fenny Yolanda & Sheron Lee

We were served everything in Raspberry flavours! From the drinks to the ice cream & finger food!

Totally missin' the raspberry ice cream! Psst... all of us had 2-3 cups of it *Runs & hides*

The view at Altimate during the night is way too majestic. These pictures are nothing like the view in real life. I wish I'd brought my dslr along so I could take better pictures.

A Noodle Story | The FIRST & ONLY Singapore-Style Ramen In Town

Saturday, October 25, 2014

"The FIRST & ONLY Singapore-style ramen in town. Showcasing super springy noodles tossed in the special aromatic dressing accompanied with Hong Kong-style wontons, soy-flavoured hot spring egg, meltingly tender cha-su & a crispy potato wrapped prawn. Beautifully garnished with freshly sliced scallions & red pepper. I swear this bowl of ramen wins many ramen stalls hands down - AND IT'S PRICED AT ONLY $5.50 Can't wait to try it already? Stay tuned to my blogpost @ www.strawberrtcoatedkisses.com to find out where you can find this SPECIAL bowl of Singapore-style ramen! *Slurps*"

Posted this photo on my instagram (@xoangeline) about a week ago and had many asking me where this place is so...

*Drum roll*

LO & BEHOLD

A Noodle Story

Inspired by modern European techniques & Asian flavours, A Noodle Story was born after much relentless refinement to the recipe. This simple yet complicated dish is specially created to suit local taste buds.

You'd never expect where they're located at

Tucked away in a corner at a double storey building food center?!?!?!

When I first heard about the location, I was like wt*? Are you sure it's at a hawker center?

I mean, just look at that bowl of noodles - Looks like it's from some jap restaurant, no?

I'm so bad with food descriptions & I know I'm always saying it's either good or bad but I swear this bowl of ramen is just pure goodness. I have nothing bad to say about it at all?!?! IT IS SO DAMN GOOD. (I feel like going back for another bowl right as I'm typing this. Damn.) My favourite is definitely the potato-wrapped prawn. Haven't eaten anything as good as this. And the egg, omg, the egg is just PERFECT!

Only negative thing I have to say is, the location AND that they're closed on weekends :(

Just a heads up, it can get really warm in the hawker center so try to wear something light if you're planning to head down.

Even if you don't fancy or like ramen, I urge all of you to give this bowl of noodles a try.

Who knows, you might even come back for more.

Cuddles Cat Cafe

Reportedly the largest at 2,500 sq feet, Cuddles Cat Cafe, is the newest kid on the block to join the increasingly crowded scene.

Though I'm not a huge fan of cats, I have to admit, it was such an eye opener. I had a really fun time interacting & cuddling the cats. However, I felt that they had way too little cats for such a huge space. What a waste! :(

While I was there, there were approx 5 people or more to a cat and the rest were just lounging around which I felt was pointless as the whole idea to go to a cat cafe is to interact with em', no?

*! Just read an article saying that they wanted to increase the amount of cats but AVA only allows 20 cats to reside in it's premises. - Hopefully, AVA will approve of their proposal to house more cats and I'll get the chance to play with more kitties too! Tee hee.
