Updates// Valentine's day

13th February 2015

Lost count of when I have last updated my blog but I knew it was all the way before Valentine's day. On one of the Friday, I met up with Stella after her Yoga session and we stopped by to City Square for Milk and Honey yogurt treats. I chanced upon Group on and saw a voucher which favour for 2 yogurts at a price of $9.95 ( original was $6.50-$10 per cup).

So it was like buy 1 get 1 free treats! They have different range of price which results in different type of flavours. So in order to get the best flavours ( with more toppings of course), save that few dollars and opt for the expensive one. 

I have no idea how old is this yogurt shop but im pretty sure it has been well-known recently by danielfooddairy and many comparisons were made between Honey creme and itself. Meanwhile, not only they have it at City Sqaure, another outlet was spotted at Tanjong Katong Road, OneKM Mall and business was in a bizarre too!

Besides the yogurt parfait, Milk & Honey serves some delicious cakes and of course some coffee or beverage for a high tea break as well.

Instead of the usual made parfaits, you can choose to order a yogurt creation or make your own with any of their 9 homemade toppings which was listed on the menu and what's more adding to your favourite liking. 

But sadly to say, to save the hassle of choosing the toppings, we went on to order their best seller parfait. Stella had her matcha which consists of green tea paifaits, while chocolate sticks, chocolate pearls, green tea meringue, green tea crumble and azuki red beans.

While I enjoyed away my Chocolate divine which I never regret ordering that. The toppings were chocolate twister, macaroon, chocolate sauce, white chocolate crumble brownie and dark chocolate granache. 

I was rather sad to hear that they have ran out of brownie so the staff requested me to change to another topping and I literally supported oreo into my yogurt. It taste equivalent good too!

Just a typical short meet up with Stella to catch up of our lives and also to celebrate our advance Valentine's day (:

Happy Valentine's day to all the couples in this world! I preferably love to celebrate Valentine's day over monthsary// anniversary because to feel loved, you do also need to share your love and when seeing couples holding hands with their partner, it delights me. That blissful smile on their face felt like they have ruled the world and stay in their most comfort zone.





For myself, I spent half of my Valentine's day with Mum and brought her out for a good meal. My crave for Xiao Long Bao grown wider and I initiate to foot the bills in order to satisfy my crave and also being able to celebrate with her ( so its a one stone kill two birds, win win situation).

DTF at Bishan was a disappointing one. Not only the waiting time was LONG ( waited 45 mins), the food served were bland. Do they run out of money to buy seasoning or salt? The fried rice was tasteless. My Xiao Long Bao came in cold and hard. It doesn't feel like its being cooked well!

Left the shop so disappointingly and never ever dine in at Bishan DTF.



Not to let this lunch to ruin my mood. Boyfriend texted and told me that he wants to book out which he was not supposed to but since he was granted, we had our mini celebration at Tampines.


Our dinner was a fattening + calories accumulated one but no complaints because what's more important is who you are having it with.




And last but not least, I do receive a rose on the Valentine's day but not specially bought from him. It was FOC by a guardian angel who gave it to all the girls who walked past him. A for Effort for boyfriend to grab one for me although the angel claimed that it is strictly for female. HAHA.

Till then.

Pre- Valentine day: W39 Bistro & Bakery + Bukit Timah Railway train


“Love is the only answer to every question. It is the only thing that will serve you in every situation. It is the route and the destination. It is medication, liberation and should be at the heart of and expression of your vocation.”

Today's Valentine's Day. There's a whole day devoted solely to love. Does that make any sense? Nah. Love makes us all crazy. But it's fun too.




On the 8th Feb marked our Pre-valentine + Monthsary spent together as the man has to stay-in in his camp on the 14th Feb (#perksofhavinganarmyboyfriend). Not complaining because I know that he will make it up for me like he always did from the previous time.

Life has been good revolving around him, come to think of it, we have stayed together for almost 2 years ( 23th Month for now) and went through bit and pieces of happiness, sadness, loneliness, anger. An example of roller coaster could simply depicts our relationship. 

But nevertheless, I told myself that he is the right man that I want to find/ have found so with all these hardships that we have gone through, a little sourness does spice up in our relationship. No matter what, I'm still gonna announce that I am glad to be with him.


Moving on, here we are to travel down to the west side to explore on their cafe. To what we have done our research, W39 Bistro and Bakery came into my top list as I have been wanting to grab their rainbow cake ( not like im a fan of rainbow cake but the 7 colours always cheer me up!)



We came on the weekend and therefore W39 served Brunch menu from 9am-3pm. We were lucky to get their indoor seats and that's make dining a more comfortable one without having to battle under the sunlight.

Menu was stated starters, and their lunch menu starts from 12 noon onwards. We came in approximately at 12 sharp and therefore we have varieties of dishes to choose from. However, their brunch menu looked more promising.


Chicken wings ($8)
Six pieces of chicken mid joint wings served with their thai dip



Croque Madame - $10
2 slices of fluffy butter top toast layered with ham and cheese, topped up with a sunny side up egg and served with mesclun salad on a side.

If you are a small-eater, this big portion can be served for two person. The only fascinating would be sunny side up egg where it was make perfectly. I enjoy looking at how the egg yolk splashed out on the toast bread.



Rainbow cake ($6.50)
Last but not least the reason why I am here. HAHA, who wouldn't resist on their rainbow cake which was worth instagramm-ing. They said 7 colours but I counted 6 but nevertheless, does it look yummy to you? Rest assured that it wasn't very sweet!

A small little booth caught my attention and quickly asked boyfriend to play with the props which was laid in a basket, As you can see that my boyfriend was reluctant to do it so in the end I'm the one who enjoyed myself at the "photo booth".

Really love how they have some cute little props to entertain their customers while waiting for the food to be served. I certainly enjoy dining at W39 with the accompany of him.


Our next activity were mainly on a walk along the old railway train at Bukit Timah and to snap some of the unused buildings or I would say the remaining pebbles.


The station is located not to far down the main road from King Albert Park’s MacDonald’s. There you’ll be able to find the sign leading down the small road to the station.

By getting there, visiting Bukit Timah Railway station would be quite a simple task. By taking bus, there is a bus which stopped directly outside the railway station. Bus numbers 66, 67, 74, 77, 151, 154, 157, 170, 171, 174, 852, 961, 970 will be able to drop you on the opposite of the King Albert Park’s MacDonald.



Steel Truss Bridge: Perhaps more famous than the Railway Station itself where you can showcase your photography skills, not forgetting #ootd shots, Of course I didn’t miss the chance to actually walk along the truss bridge to get a feel of it.

The long winding track could lead you to sprain your ankle easier so do take precaution and walk slowly. Don't worry, there won't be any train shuttling past as they have officially closed the railway station.



Thanks for being the best photographer (:





And last but not least, we set together another of a good memories! Thanks my valentine's date.

 In my opinion the best thing you can you do is find a person who loves you for exactly what you are. Good mood, bad mood, ugly, pretty, handsome, what have you, the right person will still think the sun shines out of your ass. That’s the kind of person that’s worth sticking with.

And i'm glad that I have found you ;)

Till then.
