Falling in love, one destination at a time
2021 was probably the most difficult year I have had so far. I was yearning to see my family, itching to travel and just in many ways wanting to get back to a ‘normal’ state. After our multiple travel plans got shelved due to the omicron variant, we did a staycation at Ritz Carlton in... Continue Reading →
Early December, we took a 3 day break for a staycation in Singapore's central business district at Mandarin Oriental. We are not big fans of staycation but it turned out to be a really relaxing getaway from our 'work from home' drill. For me, work from home has turned out to be more exhausting as...

A bit off the main circuit, Tyrwhitt road has some great and affordable dining options. It's a small street filled with hip cafes-- Tiramisu Hero, Chye Seng Huat, Black fairy coffee, Wimbly Lu etc. I have been a regular at Tiramisu Hero in the past. They serve great tiramisu in a variety of flavours and... Continue Reading →
We are usually holidaying on my birthday. Since it wasn't possible this year, we decided to dine in style at Odette. It is a 3-Michelin star restaurant, currently named Asia's best and is amongst the world's top 20 restaurants. Booking runs atleast a month in advance and the 6 course lunch spread is priced at...

Last weekend, few friends and I explored Thomson Nature Park. Loved the leisurely 4km walk. The trails are fun and easy. Although it was sunny, most of the park is covered with tall trees, providing plenty of shade. Overall, a great morning spent catching up, spotting cute birds, mimosas, fig trees and, oh of course,... Continue Reading →
This is my second visit to Thus Coffee and we had a lovely, post yoga, Sunday brunch. It's a bit of an effort to get to this place. It is located on a quiet street behind Sembawang hills food centre. However, the food and coffee is really good and their housekeeping is pretty neat! Location:... Continue Reading →
I visited Gardens by the Bay after a long time today. I wanted to see their ovoid exhibits at the Dragonfly lake and also the Christmas decorations at the Supertree Grove. The ovoid exhibits are amazing. Watching the changing colours along with the tuning fork inspired music was therapeutic. We were just in time for... Continue Reading →
My Dec 2019 wishlist is to see more of Singapore--my home for the last 5 years. In this spirit, I visited the Jurong Bird park today, on a particularly stormy afternoon! Thankfully, the thunder storms lasted about an hour and we could see a lot in the 3 hours we had. How to reach there:... Continue Reading →
I have never been a fan of staycations. Why do you need to go to a hotel when you can enjoy the comforts of your home right? Well I had to make an exception for the iconic Marina Bay Sands Hotel. We recently stayed there for a night and quite enjoyed our stay. The room... Continue Reading →

We started with a lovely 3- course European cuisine lunch... Continue Reading →
