Tryna chomp as much good food with the last 25% of the holidays we have left!! TT #bittersweet

Going from most recent~

1) Charlie Brown Cafe

Cathay Cineleisure Orchard #04-01

Sunday - Thursday: 8am - 10pm

Friday & Saturday: 8am - 11pm

They have that 10% service charge! (Y)(Y)(Y)

I got Charlies all time favourite breakfast set ($12.80) while...

...Cheng got grilled salmon with mashed potatoes :) ($16.80)

The lighting was perrrrfect for taking pictures hahahah

Charlie cafe latte ($5.60)

Charlies all time favourite breakfast set and I loved the pancakes!!!

Cheng noticed the walls had quotes about happiness printed on them

I spun around.......and read out, "Happiness is a sad song" *shakes head*

Cheng was like, "Eh why is that the first thing you notice?!"

HAHAHAHAHA

Well, there were only 4 quotes~ and the other 3 were:

Happiness is a warm puppy (<3)

Happiness is for everyone

Happiness is a circus balloon (... whut???)

And a picture with the ~~sad song~~ happiness wall lolz

2) Starking Korean Restaurant

16-18 Tanjong Pagar Road #01-01

Daily: 5pm - 1am

This deal from Groupon was worth it!!

Place was decent~ Food was not bad! They were playing Beast's concert on the tv, which made the place even better HAHAHAHA

I kinda bought the deal without knowing it was a buffet LOLS but it's good, we had a bigger spread :)

Rlly glad I didn't have to worry about my beef being overcookeddd or sausage being undercooked!!! #trusty

- Kimchi soup was great! Could taste the tomatoes in it, me likey~~

- Pork belly was... uhh, well, after bbq-ing, the meaty part became a puny fraction as compared to the FATS omg

- Beef was okay okay

- Chicken was ❤ ❤ ❤ !!! Soft and tender and the teriyaki sauce OMG! Best part of the buffet, hands down

- Mushrooms were mehhh

- Sausages were ❤ too!! Preferred the smaller white ones.

*How to tell if your sausages are cooked?

Snip the sausages in this manner (below)

When the snip parts start to fold up, they're cooked!

#cheflesson101 hahahah

3) Llao Llao

313 Somerset #B3-55

Fiiiiinally tried the highly raved llao llao ♡ .♡ it sure didn't disappoint!
Def gonna head down for another cup soon!!

4) PS Cafe

Monday - Thursday: 11.30am - midnight

Friday: 11.30am - 2am

Saturday: 9.30pm - 2pm

Sunday: 9.30am - midnight

Pretty inaccessible, gotta cab there

Portions were hugeee and so were the prices lols

"Can we serve everything together?"
"Yep!"
In the end, Desserts were served first, then Sides, then Mains.....
Guess we made the wrong move HAHAH the dessert pretty much filled our stomachs before our mains arrived :[

Double chocolate blackout ($14.90)
Chocolate overdose omg it'd be great if they sold like... half a portion??

Truffle shoestring fries ($15)
The portion was bladdy huge, just imagine 3 packets of McDonalds large fries added together *_*
Taste wise, rlly average, I'd prefer the posh chips at Jamie's italian or the truffle mayo at Timbre!

Chicken Rossa Penne

"grilled chicken, smoked bacon, spinach & mixed mushrooms tossed with garlic-tomato cream sauce"

Didn't have much stomach space left for this ahahahaha

Read quite a lot of good reviews for this dish buttt idk it tasted average to me??

*amazed* HAHAHAHA

5) Timbre

Monday - Thursday: 6pm - 1am

Friday & Saturday: 6pm - 2am

Headed to substation outlet to celebrate our beloved section leader Liyun's birthday!!

81.8% of alto 2!!

Flooding the cake w candles HAHAHA

Ordered the mandatory roasted duck pizza, truffle fries, and buffalo wings #foreverandalways HAHAH

Charlene said that the Smoked Salmon Pizza was nice so we tried that too! AND ZOMG found a new 'mandatory' dish to order at Timbre!!!

Okay I ~~stole~~ borrowed these pictures from Googling cos I gave up trying to adjust the aperture and shutter speed and everything on my camera T_T HAHAHA to my defense, it's still new and idk how to adjust settings yet! :b
