Foodie on the go: Canele at Plaza Singapura

Had my bi-monthly IPL appointment with Caeby!
It's been long since i've ever seen her! =D 

After our appointment, we headed for some food! 
And settled for Cedele, since its my first time there and on top of that, there's no queue at all! (:

Happen to see that they actually served all day breakfast! So here we go!
Because we are not too hungry, so we decided that we will do some sharing. 

First up would be the Fluffy Pancakes (S$10).
We really love how soft and fluffy it is. Comes in 3 thick layers of pancakes, and topped it up with swirls of maple syrup together with some berries. But pity that the berries are really sour!

On a side note, in order for you to order the sides, you will need to order a main dish! 
So since we are sharing, we decided to order fries. 
Fries are fried to the most crispy and seriously this is one of the better ones i ever had! (:

Whats lunch without having desserts? =P
Both of us ordered macaroons (S$2.50 each) and also ordered a strawberry shortcake (forget to take a picture of it). 
There are quite a few flavours available, so we decided to order Rose, Caramel, Hazelnut and Chocolate Noir! They are really good, esp the one in Rose flavour. Strong taste of the bundung syrup taste, and crunchy on the outside! Slurps, I could have them all day! 

Total Spending: S$50 for 2 pax

Where to find it:
Canele
68 Orchard Road #01-55 
Plaza Singapura
Singapore 238839
Tel: 68372252

Opening Hrs:

Verdict: 
I would head back again! Best fluffy pancakes I ever had! (:
And would return to try more of their other dishes! (:
And taking away of 6 macaroons at only S$11.50, where do we find such great deal? =D

A day with Momma and Cuzzie! :D

First, featuring my #ootd! hahah!
Top: Isa
Bottom: Cotton on
 

Headed out shopping with the cuzzie and momma!
Pass by this cafe for a short break! 
Love chandelier like this! =D

They have pretty setups, but too bad, I didnt manage to take an image of them.

Back to what we have ordered, cousin ordered this vanilla crepe that comes with this berry sauce. 
Okay, this wasnt my cake, and the vanilla taste wasnt as strong as what I tot it would turn out. 
So this is definitely not the cake I would head back for. 
   

 Next up was momma's Durian Cake! At first she wanted to order this Devil Chocolate Cake, which looks much more appealing as compare to this durian cake. But apparently, it wasnt available on that day. So momma had to make do with this durian cake. Taste wise, was so much better thn the vanilla crepe that cousin ordered. But apart from that, the cream on the cakes are just alright.
  

Here comes mine! Caramel Cheesecake. This cake was really sweet! First few mouths, you may think its still alright. But after a mouthful of this, hmmm, i somehow starts to get sick of it. But oh well, I love the walnuts! They taste so awesome with the caramel melted on top. But apart from that, this caramel has this tinge of smelly melted caramel taste.
  

Hello Cousin with the cup of warm water!
  


Because momma couldnt take tea/coffee, so she had to make do with Ice Chocolate. But apart from that, this Ice chocolate was really good! Not too sweet, and had the taste of chocolate. Meanwhile, I've ordered White Chocolate Macchiato which was a little sweet. Or possibly was because I had the cakes before that, which makes me feeel sweeter!
 

A few pictures before the food came! =D
Oh did i mention, I'm falling in love with my new buy, BB Cushion from Laneige! 
Its really good! Cover up all my visible pimpos.
 

Hello Momma!
  

I dont think I'll re-visit that cafe again, firstly because their service wasnt really good. It took us quite a while to get our food ordered. Secondly, the cakes are not really worth the price that we are paying for. But than again, because they not only served pasteries, they also served Thai meals! Oh its a Thai restaurant with pretty decors!

Bought this dress from HnM earlier on! (:
 

Apart from that, did i mention I've been going yoga with le buddy? 
Images of us after we are done with our showers! (:

For the first time, we tried out the intensive Hot Flap Abs Yoga in this sauna room!
Felt super awesome esp when you step out of the yoga room! And the feeeling was really amazing! 

Gonna take up their packages and give it a go! One week once, shld be able to help me stay slightly healthier. Oh on a side note, gotta cut down on unhealthy food! hahahah! *Cross Fingers*
 
 

 Cant wait for Yoga tonight, and meeting le besties for a short chatty session!
Miss those days!

Lunch at Selfish Gene

Took leave on one of the days just to have brunch with le boyfriend!
And after reading so many blogs, and decided to head down to Selfish Gene to try out their all day breakfast set! =D


They do not have a wide variety of set meals that we can choose from. But somehow I like how clear-cut their menus look! 

The little flower on the tables! They have this mini flower placed on each and ever table! And different colors too!

Because it was a Monday, so I suppose not many would turn up at this little space? 

Unlike other restaurants, they usually took orders from where we sat, but this time round, we had to walk over to the counter to place an order for what we would like to have.

And they would in return give us a cup tgt with the receipt for our purchase. 


Boyfriend ordered San Pell Mandarino which taste quite good! 
A little sweet and sour feeling and slightly gasy! I like! 

Took a piece of name card from the counter! Pretty piece they had too! =D

Here comes my Ice Mocha, but erm, its a little too bitter for my liking.
A little sugar syrup would help i guess? 

Oh this little corner we saw, was just right at the entrance! 
Super cute area where it displays the set of menus which people take to look and plain water to quench our thirst while waiting for our dishes to be served!

*Drum rollssss*

...
..
.

Here comes our main dish!
The boyfriend ordered Bagel & Smoked Salmon (SGD$12.80) a little on the pricey side because the portion is actually quite small! The salmon are thinly sliced but according to le boyfriend, the salmon wasnt really fresh.

Bagel is always something that I love! Esp with cream cheese!
Never had a chance to give this a try, but I suppose it shldnt taste that bad? Since the bf didnt comment much abt it. D:

This is mine! The Breakfast Plate (SGD$15.80). I love how the bread was toasted, crispy and soft!
Apply a little of butter and yummss, makes me feel like having them now!
Oh it comes with scramble eggs, sausage, ham, tomatoes as well as sauteed mushrooms. 
A little on the bad side was, the sauteed mushrooms were not even warm! And me being a mushroom lover, this wasnt really my cup of tea. 

But the rest was good! 

For breakfast lovers, this may be a good chance to give it a try!
This place is not really easy to find, because it was located somewhere near Duxton @ Pinnacle. 
But its at a rather ulu place near Tanjong Pagar. Because we drove there, so we parked at the mall or was it an office building just opp and it was quite near! 

Food wise, the portion was slightly little as compare to elsewhere, but i supposed its worth the try! =D
And price was on a more pricey side, so this is the bad point. 

Total Spending for 2: SGD$39.20
Overall Rating: 7/10
