National Museum of Singapore

Late post obviously and I am afraid that this would most likely be just photodump post. But I'll try my best.
Nagustuhan ko talaga ang mga napili kong isama sa itinerary namin sa SG. And I must say na-impress talaga ako sa National Museum of Singapore.
The well-preserved structure and its pristine white walls would not make you think that this is the oldest museum in the country.
NSM mostly shows history of Singapore. It is presented in a way na makikita mo yung progress ng country.
Aside from that, meron din silang mga "temporary" exhibits. When we went there, it was "Celebrating Radio: Sounds from the Past". It was like listening to a "podcast from the past" ;p
I was really impressed with NSM.I just wished the battery to my camera didnt die on me.

 

 

hindi parepareho ng "era" pero ayan collage na lang kasi I'm so lazy

I'm pointing to the button that allows me to select a particular recording which was aired in the past

Bulacan Food Trip: Cozy Coffee + Waffles and Surf Burger

Sa sobrang late post nito, di ko ma-tandaan details! I'll try my best.

Cozy Coffee + Waffles

Yunmy Lasagna! As in! 

Signature Waffle

Surf Burger!

Support local business!

I dont know whats on top of the fries and onion rings platter, it's yum but can get a little umay 

Exposed brick wall, also they are located in Baliuag, Bulacan

We went bowling and it was supposed to be fun but I lost so..

First time na nanalo sya sa kahit anong games/competition namin (legit - minsan nandurugas sya)! I cannot believe it. Dinasalan nya ata yung mga bowling balls and pins! Oh well.

Patok pala bowling dito sa Alabang. Ang daming naglalaro; some came in groups, yung iba couple, and may mga mag isa lang din. Some of the players also look like regulars. Meron pa sila nung arm support thing-y.

Here are the rates. Take note, 2 ang Astrobowl sa Starmall Alabang! Both marami tao nung nagpunta kami.

Ako yang naka strike, kaso talo pa din :(

Napadaan kami sa Southmall few days after we went bowling sa Starmall Alabang. Mahal ng onti sa SM.

082716sat Random Blah Blah and Photo Dump

Yung andami nang tambak na picture tapos di pa din ma upload upload!
Skip ko muna Singapore trip tutal di ko din naman ma-organize.

So magdadaldal muna ako dito, thinking out loud, thought vomit etc. Okay I'll start.

I gained 5.5 kgs from last year's APE. Nahihirapan ako 'coz some jeans and trousers don't fit anymore!

Okay moving on.
I loovveeeeeeee this Ever Bilena Lipstick na nabili ko sa Savemore - Matte - Toast of New York. Naggrocery kami ni mommy bago yung SG trip namin ni boss, and I thought I want a new lippie (wow lippie kala mo soshal na brand haha). And feeling ko jackpot sya coz it's matte pero hindi nagddry lips ko. And it's only (insert correct price here) pesos! As usual di ko na naman matandaan presho. I wanna say P134, or P164 - ayan basta less than P200! What a steal right. IMO it's the perfect shade between red and brown.

The brown lipstick shade of the 90s is back. The 90s, greatest decade evurrr, is definitely back.  Just notice how all the fashion statements from that decade is trending right now. We are all borrowing outfits from Rachel Green's closet:

Plain White Sneakers
Cropped top
Mom Jeans
Denim Overalls

I'd say give it another 5 years then we'll all wear what she wore Season 5 onwards.

 

Photo dump!!

We stayed at B Hotel in Quezon City

We stayed at B Hotel in Quezon City and there were so many things I liked!

1.The interior design is nice and modern
2. It's sulit for its price (3800 Php with breakfast) 

3. Room vibe was not hotel-ish (in a good way)

4. They served Danggit for breakfast (of course some other stuff too)
5. King sized bed
6. Extra Pillows!
7. Bare walls
8. All the grey I see

9. Cute pool

10. Other tiny details

 What I didn't like:
1. Other toiletries not readily available - conditioner, lotion etc - available upon request, uhm, di nyo pa sinama!

I had mixed feelings for the "not inside the bathroom" sink, but I know that it was placed that way to go with the modern theme and for better floor area use. I think.

I want some more, Singapore!

Multi-ethnic nation = Gastronomic adventure!

Singapore is a must-visit for every foodie! Even though this place is known for being quite expensive (compared to other neighboring Asian countries), eating cheap is still possible. One word: Hawker. Who wouldn’t get excited with the abundance of option to choose from! It can get a little overwhelming though as there are really plenty of choices to choose from.

Makansutra at Gluttons Bay

Yup. Glutton here!

Started my adventure with Mee Goreng ~ Spicy Malaysian Stir-Fried Noodles

Sorry, Im not good with this food photography thing

then went a little conservative with this Salmon dish and paired it with delish Watermelon shake.

I don’t know what he had, it was like braised pork with kangkong (not sure)

One would surely go hungry from all the furniture shopping at IKEA. No problem, IKEA Restaurant also has exciting menu. Obviously not local, but their selection were all yummy and good for sharing!

We had Meatballs, Fried Chicken Wings and Pasta with tomato sauce and meatballs (yes again). And cake! 

Shopping is one of Singapore’s greatest draw. June, July, and August are the best months for shopping because of the Great Singapore Sale (GSS).  Orchard road is one of the most popular shopping destination in Singapore. Here you will find multitude of shops and retail center with huge discounts during GSS. And after filling your shopping bags, fill your tummy with delicious finds at the hawker center just outside the Concorde Hotel (Orchard cor Cavanagh).

Here we had Prawn Hot Plate, Chow fan, and some noodle dish (I don’t really remember if I didn’t order it).

And for our #SocialClimberActivities Harvey invited us to relax and have wine and cheese at Wine Connection Bistro @ Cuppage Terrace, also in Orchard. I don’t really understand this whole wine and cheese thing and why rich people do it haha. They all tasted weird, but it’s true that wine helped us relax – duh alcohol. 

We’re lucky that the hotel I booked was right beside Balestier Market. And the stalls were open for breakfast. They also offer take away – but usually for additional dollar or 2. On our 3^rd day, I had chicken and century egg congee; still a little conservative choice for someone who wants to "try stuff".

There are days when my tummy gets lazy and takes hours before getting hungry. I didn’t finish my congee which was a bad move coz I got hungry early in the day when were at Universal Studios. Good ol’ Skyflakes to the rescue! There was so much lining in queues that day so we decided to just get hotdogs and fries inside USS. No photo taken. Hotdog: Gone in 60 Seconds.

So I wanted to eat at hawker again since they were cheaper and offers more selection. But apparently, not all of them had great selection as Makansutra and Balestier Market. I’m gonna skip our 3^rd day dinner. I had some beef noodle soup. Good enough to fill my hungry belly.

We moved to a different hotel on our 4^th day. And luckily again, there's a food court just at the end of the block ~ Food Republic. Ate Erliza tipped me to have traditional Singaporean breakfast at Toast Box. So I ordered the Traditional Kaya Toast. Okay I know how to eat a toast, but did I? So this meal came with coffee (I know how to drink that) and 2 soft boiled eggs (like really soft and runny) – that I didn’t know how to eat. I cracked one open, saw I was given 2 teaspoons. I assumed 1 was for coffee and the other for the eggs. I was scooping the inside of the egg with the teaspoon. Looked at the other table and saw a local guy put the eggs in the other mini bowl, and did the same time. This was too light of a breakfast for me, so I added a Luncheon Meat Bun, also from Toast Box.

Some other breads Toast Box offers

Food Republic at Bras Basah Rd

This was what he ordered. I don't know what it was.

We decided to have lunch at Food Republic again. This time I had Pad Thai, Fish Cake, and Thai Milk Tea. They were all sooooo good! Look at the prawns!

He had duck and wonton soup.

I really enjoyed eating in Singapore. My wallet didn't enjoy that much, but my belly did! :)
