Oh yes, I was in the land of the cool and hip and ANTI chewing gun, SINGAPORE! haha! After more than a decade of not being there, mind you for my age a decade is nearly forever, I was there last week to visit some of my relatives and also to kick start my mini food/ pastry adventure. I must say I was pretty impressed..not which the local food scene though..Malaysia, still is my favourite! I was really happy to meet some of my friends who I haven't seen in AGES! and of course to see some familiar face =) We'll let's just start with the gazillion pictures I took. "tourist mode on"!
The urban jungle.
Went to ION Orchard.Visited MUJI! Pretty pretty shop with a very 'pretty' price.
There were TOO MANY wonderful looking food stall all around, I was just going crazy taking pictures, but a lot were western/ japanese influence, which is awesome for me! hehe =)

We went all the wayyyyyyy to 2AM Dessert Bar but we were still too early, it wasn't opened yet =(..But we managed to go in a took a look see..Really nice must come at the right time next time..
So we had everything with fries! If you really really really like fries this is the place for you...
The shop look pretty cool..nice menu board..
We also tried their dessert that I heard people were crazy about..It was pretty ok..very american..So I went to a few more places here and there, did more stuff with my aunts and relatives. I'd say it was a good visit but it hasn't changed my perception about SG but I would definitely go there to check out the pastry scene!
Thanks all my friends and family who took me on my little pastry adventure!!!That's all for now..visit soon!!
