Pastamania delivery

Alright alright, so it's my day off. 
I decided to stay home and order something.
So i've been seeing this Pastamania pamphlet lying around the house for a few times now and I thought,
why not huh..
Thus.....order made and reached in 1 hour time.

I've ordered a combo for 2.
As you know, my appetite is kinda heh heh...moderate. >.<

The combo includes, a 7 inch pizza
I picked the Hot Basil Pizza, which looked nothing like advertised
This is what i got
There weren't even any pieces of chilli
 Looks big don't it?
What about now?
 And trust me, I have one of the smallest hands amongst my girl friends.
It was not hot nor warm, really dry
All I could taste was the chicken and the cheese, 
what about the basil? The spicy tomato sauce?
Same quality that can be found like those frozen pizzas from the supermarket
Except, those frozen pizzas taste better.

Another thing included was any choice of pasta.
The Turkey Bacon Cheesy Crumble was my choice.
It was awfully DRY.
Couldn't even taste the bacon or the sauce.
Tasted like a pasta I first made using whip cream.

The side dishes were waffle potato and 2 coleslaw

Also, a packet of tissue
Funny how there is a trend here where people 'chop' tables at kopitiam with just a packet of tissue.

Overall satisfaction:
1/5
This will be the first and last from Pastamania.
Dominos is still my best choice.

Mexican Adventure

Another rainy day, another successful food hunt with non other than my big cousin brother, Melvin.
This next place, Mexout


Located in Far East Square along with other restaurants.
I chose this restaurant because it is newly opened, it was published in the news, and also I have not ate Mexican food before.





 



It has a simple decor.
The place is nice and comfortable though, great place for hanging out.

And now, the good stuff
 These tacos comes in 3 for SD13
What we had lamb, pork and beef respectively in each.
With different types of salsa sauces each
 salsa fresca (vegetarian), salsa picante and mango pineapple
 This is the mini burrito with rice and char grilled chicken, SD9
Well, the portion was quite small for a price like that
Therefore, second round........
My couz ordered a 
Nachos with black beans and pork meat, SD15

for me
The rice bowl with char grilled chicken because they ran outta lamb
and the spicy salsa sauce, SD 13

Drinks:
Tequila Sunrise, SD 10
It was happy hour for Margarita and Corona
So I had both for SD 7 each.






 Overall experience..
Staff were friendly, food were pricey
I will come back occasionally if my friends or family wanna try some mexican
But not on regular.

Adventure at Holland Village

Alright alright, here comes another one of my desperate desire to look for sweet stuff to 'taste'.
So, 22/10/12, anything goes.

My original plan was to head to the 2AM Dessert Bar to check it out. However it is not opened until 6pm, so alternative choice. I found this website, which led me to MU Parlour located nearby Holland Village MRT. Luckily I had done my research because without it I could not have found the place.

Because I was so excited, and so darn 'smart' at the same time, i brought my camera, WITHOUT any memory card in it. So the pictures were taken using my pathetic old Nokia phone. My apologies for the poor quality.

When i got there, the street looked exactly like the image in google map, thus i have no problem getting familiar wit the place.
 And there it was.

 On the second floor, the stairway looked kinda welcoming to me
 The decoration is simple, but nice. It has a white theme. The furnitures are cozy and it gives a homey feeling.


 And this is the corner where i'm sitting.
When you're eating alone, there's nothing to do but to stare out into the streets, which is not that boring as a lotta cars, people are passing by. 
The dessert counter..
 I ate the beef burger no.11 on the menu. Yes, beef. It consists of the MU Parlour's special sauce.
For dessert, lychee and vanilla sponge cake and a Passionfruit and Sesame Chocolate tart.
An for beverage, I has a Jalisco Pop cocktail which main ingredients are rum and grapefruit juice.


The bill came up to SD50.60, which includes service charge, no GST. 

Overall experience: i would rate it 4/5.
The service staff was friendly. The atmosphere is really cozy and music was not that bad, not my cup of tea but it suits the mood.
I'm not sure when my next dessert hunt would be but if there are readers out there, stay tuned =)

New attraction

Hello food blog and bloggers who follow this page

What's up lately is that i'm having an internship for 6months in Conrad Centennial, Singapore
Training in the Lobby Lounge
It's kinda fun here,
we take turns to do many tasks everyday
from being a hostesss, to waitress, to runner, to barista
So here's what i've been entertaining myself with lately
(FYI: i only get to do this when i'm the runner)

My Latte Art:






 1st attempt
 2nd attempt
(Cup was too small for the circle to be formed)


This next one is actually done by someone, somewhere on earth
Which looked like this

I just thought of testing my capabilities
So..
 1st attempt
 2nd attempt
3rd attempt

And then i got tired,
But will definitely try it again to perfection,
 when i have the chance
For now, this is..
CLOSE ENOUGH
=D
