Habitat Coffee

Hi guys I'm back with a post on my brunch date with Ben yesterday. After hearing all the positive reviews on blogs, and on Instagram, we decided to head to Habitat Coffee for brunch. Nestled among many of the brunch places in Upper Thomson, I must say that it's quite easy to locate the location. Just that parking can be quite a chore, as there are only limited parking lots along the shop-houses. We gave up on trying to find a lot along the stretch, and headed to Sin Ming Plaza to park instead. It's just a short walk to the cafe, so it's really convenient. 

Food wise, I must say that the quality is really good, and reasonably priced. We ordered 2 drinks, 2 mains and truffle fries to share. The bill came up to about $53. We loved the food there! The pastas were really well done, with lots of ingredients. Ben especially loved my Blackened Dory Pasta, which is essentially just pan fried dory fish with black pepper aglio olio pasta. Sounds like an easy dish, but it was really good!

Alright some pictures that we snapped!

Can you spot Habitat coffee along this stretch of road?
We were there at about 3pm on Saturday, and the cafe was still rather packed. However, the lucky us managed to find a seat once we were there. 

Bad lightings for people shots
Iced Tiramisu coffee and Iced Mocha
Pretty yummy, but nothing much to rave about. The iced flavoured coffee were priced at $6.90 each. 
Cheesynara ($16)
This was really yummy! Just look at the amount of sausages and bacon. Mega yums. 
Blackened Dory ($16)
This was definitely the highlight of the day. The dory fish was so well marinated, and soft. Most importantly, it was fresh, and complimented the black pepper aglio olio so well. This is a must order whenever you visit Habitat Coffee.
Hello Truffle fries ($8) 
I'm a sucker for anything with potatoes, especially fries, so this was definitely a thumbs up for me. The portion of the fries was huge, and i loved the subtle hint of truffle. Yummylicious! 
A summary of what we had. 

All in all, I would think that Habitat Coffee is a really nice place to chill during the weekdays, but not quite so on a weekend. The food is so yummy, it'll keep you wanting for more. So if you're into pastas and truffle fries, do give Habitat Coffee a try. You won't regret it.

Brunch at Chye Seng Huat Hardware

Hi guys! I'm finally back to blogging! I'm done with  my exams and I can hang out more often and find more things to blog about! Whoosh! Alright, so just yesterday, Ben, Junie, Trey and I headed to Chye Seng Huat Hardware for brunch, after hearing so many positive reviews from our friends and food bloggers. The whole concept of the cafe is that you order your food at the counter, they will pass you a number tag and will serve you the food once its ready. The food was just alright in my opinion. It's probably just a place that I'll head for a cup of coffee, and chill with my friends, but not quite a place that I'll head back for the all day breakfast. Alright, so here are some of the pictures that I snapped yesterday!

Jam Hsiao Jing Teng's Concert + Swee Choon Dimsum

Hello! Sorry for the lack of updates. I've been really busy with my temp job, leaving me with very little time to meet my friends and for myself. But it's alright! I'm back with a post on Jam Hsiao's concert that I went with Jas, Junie and Trey last Saturday. It was the first ever concert that I went to, and I really enjoyed it. Love these awesome time spent with my beloved BFFs. 
Alright so I shall start the picture spamming now!

Before the concert, we spent the day shopping and settled for our early dinner at Astons.

Posing with our food, as usual.

Spammed more pictures, and look at the identical studded shoes that we bought together! :)

We walked around, and made our way to Singapore Indoor Stadium for the concert. Met Trey there and off we went to queue, as the concert was delayed. 
Hahaha, I'm trying to be cheeky here
Look at Jam Hsiao, so so so cute! Hahaha.

The concert ended at around 11pm and off we went to Swee Choon for supper!
Fried Pork ribs, so tender and so so yummy
Who doesn't love Xiaolongbaos? Small, juicy and soupy baos! Mega loves!
Liushaobaos, another dish that I must order whenever I visit Swee Choon
Mee Sua Kueh
Steamed Porkribs
Prawns in beancurd sheet
Fan Choy that doesn't look appealing, but it is awesome! So never judge a book by it's cover.
Lormaigai, nice, but not extraordinary
Tofu with pork floss
Century egg porridge which tasted extremely yummy!
And we ended our night with egg tarts. So fresh and good. I want some now. Slurps!

Anyone ofyou who haven't been to Swee Choon, please please visit them. They have really awesome dimsum, and it'll leave you craving for more!

Alright, that's about all for this post. I'll be back with more pretty soon!

Till then.
