Ma Maison

Visited Ma Maison at Bugis, because when the last time I ate there, I really liked it. Since last time I ate the Hamburg Steak, I decided to go for the Chicken curry. I didn't really like it though. The chicken were in such huge pieces, and the curry was way to strong. 

Twelve Cupcakes

Went to get twelve cupcakes again, because I really wanted to try the rose flavour. 

Twelve Cupcakes - Rose

It looks really nice!! And honestly, I was expecting some cupcake with rose fragrance. So this was a total let down. In the sponge, they just added rose syrup. The cream wasn't anything special either. It was just sweet, sweet, and sweet. 

Twelve Cupcakes - Strawberry Chocolate

This looked really appetizing too, so I got it. I really like the chocolate sponge. The cream was also good. This tasted a while lot better than the rose one. 

Twelve Cupcakes - Vanilla

With vanilla sponge cake and vanilla cheese cream, this is a full vanilla cupcake (minus the cheese part). Nothing really special about this. The sponge tasted like a normal sponge cake.

Twelve Cupcakes

Twelve Cupcakes Spam!! Bought these in box of 3 form Vivo City.

Cookies and Cream

Under the Everyday flavours, I bought cookies and cream. Basically now a days, cookies always seem to refer to Oreos. Love this flavour. Totally relief that the cream is a proper cream, not icing (like plain vanilla). The sponge remains moist and springy even though I put it in the fridge, and ate it cold.

Bailey's Chocolate

This contains alcohol. I have no idea what this is.... but it looked nice so... I hate alcohol, especially because of the strong smell. But when I ate this, I couldn't even tell there was any in it.

Vanilla Chocolate

Beware to people who thinks this is pure vanilla. It's mixed with cheese, so when I ate this, I didn't like the cream at all.

Yoshimaru Ramen Bar

Went to holland V for Ramen with bestie, (she's ramen obsessed). I had this Spicy Miso Ramen.

I also think that it's never true ramen without the egg (especially hate those over cooked ones, or those that don't even give egg).

Love the noodle. Must try ramen.

Dessert

Had matcha green tea ice cream for dessert. It is plain matcha green tea ice cream (with lots of sugar), and Shirotama (I think that's what it's called), topped with red bean paste. Very classical japanese dessert. But I still prefer the ramen play ice cream, because it's less sweet.

Plain Vanilla

After which, we went to buy cupcakes from Plain Vanilla.

It comes is this gorgeous box, tied with twine, very classical and vintage look. it cost $3.50 per cupcake. I bought the Earl Grey lavender and cookies and cream flavor. Not a big fan of cupcakes, and the only other cupcake I have actually eaten from is from Twelve Cupcakes. 

I must say the cream / icing is really sweet, so I didn't eat it. The base is quite nice; though the earl grey flavor lacked the fragrance and taste of earl gray (I love tea), and the cookies and cream one tasted more like brownie. Though compared to Twelve cupcakes, I would say Twelve cupcakes one was more moist. (not sure if putting it in the fridge had any effect on this).

Guardian - One Day Sale

Lastly we went to guardian to buy some... stuff, because there was a one day sale going on. 

bought toner (or lotion) from Habo Labo, whitening lotion from vaseline and baby lips (lip balm) from maybelline.
