Urban Fairways

I've bought sandwiches at Urban Fairways but this is the first time I dined at their Capital Tower branch. It describes itself as an inner-city golfing oasis that's consistently ranked in Trip Advisor's 'Top 10' Singapore's attractions and awarded the Trip Advisor Certificate of Excellence in 2013.

So yes, it's a cafe, a bar, a place where you can play golf (you can book through their website!), and a shop for golf apparel and equipment. It's a unique concept and it's right at the heart of Tanjong Pagar-Raffles business district. 

Urban Fairways is at Ground Floor, #01-07 Capital Tower, 168 Robinson Road (S) 068912

Once Upon a Milkshake

Who doesn't like milkshakes? After a very exciting afternoon (I just bought myself a property!!!) I felt that I need a cold treat to calm my hyper-excited nerves and the first thing that popped to my and my colleague's mind was to head to Once Upon a Milkshake at Maxwell Chambers. I had the Little Miss Hazelnutella and my colleague ordered the Agent Red Velvet. Mine was not too sweet and I advise getting a mini (lesser calories!)

What I like about this place is that orders are taken and prepared fast and easy. Staff is well-mannered and the place clean and well-kept. Comfort drink that's quick and easy.

And if you're adventurous, try their best seller - the durian shake! And let me know how it is :)

Mart Boulevard: A Thai Restaurant

                           

I love Thai food and this place has the best Pad Thai I've tasted here in Singapore (yes, I've tried the ones at Golden Mile). I always get the ones with prawn and today tried their green curry chicken plus mango with sticky rice for dessert. The chicken was so soft it almost melts in your mouth.

The stylish interior of the restaurant is a reflection of Thailand's rich and colorful cultural background. The staff is always helpful and cheerful - look for the sweet uncle!

Drury Lane

I stumbled upon this newly opened restaurant during lunch today and I loved how unassuming it but has lots to offer. It's a good place to hang out, meet friends and/or have a quiet read at their second level. They have all-day breakfast (yay!) as I love breakfast food. The bacon baked eggs I ordered is to die for! The staff were kind, helpful and cheerful which is a big deal for me who loves the entire dining experience and not just the quality of food.

On my return, I thought of getting a light meal so I chose their 1935 toast which is French toast with peanut butter and banana and it was very filling!

Los Primos Tapas Bar

It was a delight to be back at Los Primos Tapas Bar at Club Street a couple of weeks ago. I 
wasn't able to take photos the first time I was here so I made an effort not to miss out this time. Missing in this image are the 2 baskets of homemade bread we enjoyed dipping in the sauce of gambas al ajillo, which is a must-try! We ordered two of that - yes, that good! :) 

The Croquetas de Jamón were surprisingly good (given that I'm not a fan of deep fried food). Calamari was good but better when eaten hot. Sausages were tasty and the meatballs were a little bit too salty for my taste. And yes, this was a feast for 2 people :D 

Thank God for the ability to run off all the carbs and calories! Haha.

Weather Change

Weather change in 2 hours. Woke up to a sunny morning and reached the office in this gloomy and cloudy weather. Perfect for staying in and sleeping in... But no, gotta work! Work it!
