<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>Method</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. Whisk egg yolks, cornflour, Matcha powder and sugar in a bowl till well-combined. Set aside.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. Heat milk in a saucepan till boiling. Remove from heat and pour milk into your egg yolk mixture in a slow stream, while whisking continuously.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. Place the mixture back into saucepan. Heat over medium-low heat while whisking. Remove from heat when the mixture starts to thicken (kindly note this as the custard may turn lumpy!), and continue whisking till a smooth consistency is achieved. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4. Sieve the custard into another bowl and place a cling wrap over the surface and allow to cool.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Once the Matcha Custard is cooled, pipe it into the center ("hole") of your chiffon cake and ta-dah! Top it up with some whipped cream & sprinkles if you like :-) I sprinkled mine with more matcha powder and decorated it with raspberries!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Have been a loyal fan ever since it started and it has honestly helped me saved so much money :) Especially for an avid cafe hopper like me, the app has given me more *excuses* to eat out hahahaha I love how most of my friends have the app too and whenever we are thinking of places to eat, our first choice would always be<i> "somewhere with Entertainer"</i> LOL</div>

My family enjoys eating out, especially during special occasions, and it will usually costs us a bomb as we are a large family (with our plus ones too!). the Entertainer App has helped us saved a lot and i think we saved at least $800 every year? That's mad! We got to know of many new cafes/restaurants/bars from that app too :) </div>

<b><span class="il">Gaston</span> Luga </b>is a Swedish backpack retailer located in the heart of Stockholm, Sweden. Their backpacks are designed to suit any setting or occasion, and i can picture carrying this to school, work, travel or just a casual date out :) I love the juxtaposition of soft leather and thick canvas, giving it a chic, yet rugged look. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">1. Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat the oven to 325°F.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">2. Line the bottom and sides of the baking pan with parchment paper or foil, leaving an overhang on two opposite sides.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #222222;">3. Combine the butter, sugar, cocoa, and salt in a medium heatproof bowl and set the bowl in a wide skillet of barely simmering water. Stir from time to time until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth and hot enough that you want to remove your finger fairly quickly after dipping it in to test.</span><span style="color: #222222;"> </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">4. Remove the bowl from the skillet and set aside briefly until the mixture is only warm, not hot.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">5. Stir in the vanilla with a wooden spoon. Add the eggs one at a time, stirring vigorously after each one. When the batter looks thick, shiny, and well blended, add the flour and stir until you cannot see it any longer, then beat vigorously for 40 strokes with the wooden spoon or a rubber spatula. Stir in the nuts, if using. Spread evenly in the lined pan.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">6. Bake until a toothpick plunged into the center emerges slightly moist with batter, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool completely on a rack.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; text-align: start;"></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">7. Lift up the ends of the parchment or foil liner, and transfer the brownies to a cutting board. Cut into squares or heart shapes using a heart-shaped cutter! </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">225g unsalted butter, at room temperature</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">1/2 tsp salt</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">135g granulated sugar</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">200g black sesame paste </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">50g black sesame powder</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">4 eggs</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">240g all-purpose flour</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">2 1/2 tsp baking powder</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; text-align: start;"></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">125ml (1/2 cup) milk, at room temperature</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">1. Set a rack in the lower third of the oven, and spray a 9-inch round cake pan with non-stick baking spray. Preheat the oven to 170C. In a large bowl, mix the flour and baking powder with a whisk to combine and loosen the mixture.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">2. Cream the butter, sugar, salt and sesame paste & powder in a large bowl for 5-8 minutes at medium-high speed until light and fluffy. Adding the sesame paste at the beginning when you cream the butter helps distribute it evenly into the batter.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">3. Add the eggs one by one to the butter mixture. Beat well between each addition to ensure proper emulsification.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">4. Add the flour mixture in three additions, alternating with the milk in two additions: Dry-Wet-Dry-Wet-Dry.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top using your spatula.*</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"> 6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes or until the top is springy to the touch and the sides start to shrink away from the pan. Remove from oven and let cool for at least 15 minutes before inverting/removing. </span></div>

Getting ready for hotpot or shabu shabu this Chinese New Year but running out of time?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One of Singapore's leading butchery, Huber's Butchery is currently offering a series of premium shabu-shabu meats ranging from Australian Wagyu Ribeye to US Kurobuta Pork belly this CNY season! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Best thing is, you can simply email your orders to <b>info@hubersbutchery.com.sg </b>and either collect in person or enjoy free delivery with a minimum purchase of <b>$75.</b> SO convenient and saves so much time :) Do note that 1 day's notice is required as the meat needs to be appropriately frozen before going through the slicing machine. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You may also swing by Huber's Butchery at Dempsey and order over the counter. Note that the meat slices may be thicker than desired.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Currently trying to include more healthy modifications to recipes and cut down on unnecessary sugar/butter/oil etc ;) Been pretty lazy as well hence a no-bake dessert sounds like a great idea hehe</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Instead of the usual buttery crust, I decided to try something different! Made a raw granola crust using just nuts, dried fruits and a syrup sweetener e.g. honey :) I LOVE the raw granola crust omg I couldn't stop shoving spoonfuls into my mouth while making it hahahahaha it's amazing how it is so easy and healthy :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>METHOD</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. Using a food processor, pulse the dried fruits & nuts until fine chunks.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. Transfer into a bowl and add honey, stir well until a sticky paste is formed. Press down the mixture onto a springform pan.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
*You can choose to bake your crust till crispy, or set it aside & leave it as it is :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. In a small bowl, add water and sprinkle gelatin on top. Mix well and microwave for 20 seconds until the gelatine has dissolved. Set aside.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4. Using a blender or a high-speed mixer, mix the cream cheese, silken tofu, lemon juice, honey and vanilla until smooth.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
5. Add in gelatin mixture.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
6. Pour half the mixture into the prepared springform pan and place it in the freezer to set.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
7. Meanwhile, add in acai puree, acai powder and honey into the remaining mixture. Stir well.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
8. After the first layer of tofu cheesecake has set, pour in the acai mixture into the springform pan and chill in the fridge overnight.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

After having oatmeal for years, I have come to realize a few things that make them extra creamy (& dreamy):</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhT4rQ0p57U8k6I8lJUCzshT577GxE333CjAaStLnY_S1jsiZQO0JN5LFdRr7O8P3BekHaSyqYUTiE96jzRKdBvuWij7UnUumIyYCeEYzFUmtv6TnK7A8Bd7ra1EPeVXqdedfIG02UTZypc/s1600/2016-12-08+11.26.19+1-01.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhT4rQ0p57U8k6I8lJUCzshT577GxE333CjAaStLnY_S1jsiZQO0JN5LFdRr7O8P3BekHaSyqYUTiE96jzRKdBvuWij7UnUumIyYCeEYzFUmtv6TnK7A8Bd7ra1EPeVXqdedfIG02UTZypc/s640/2016-12-08+11.26.19+1-01.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(drizzled with dark chocolate)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. Milk - whatever type you like! If vegan, you can choose almond/soy/coconut milk etc :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. Bananas - they act as a sweetener as well as a thickener when they disintegrate. I like to add them in towards the end so that chunks of banana remain ;)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. Chia seeds - these super seeds absorb water to form a gelatinous structure, hence providing fibre at the same time!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4. Vigorous stirring after removing from heat - somehow it breaks down the oats further and forms a smooth creamy bowl of goodness</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
*I'm not a fan of adding sugar to my breakfasts but I can't deny it makes the entire bowl so much nicer hahaha. Try using coconut sugar if you can not just because of it's nutty fragrance, but also because it does have higher vitamins & minerals than normal sugar, as well as a lower glycemic index which means it doesn't spike up your blood sugar :)</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Ingredients:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1/2 cup whole rolled oats</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1/2 cup milk (any kind)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1/2 large banana - cut into slices/mashed into chunks</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2-3 tsp coconut sugar (or brown sugar, honey etc)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
half a banana - cut into slices/mashed into chunks</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 tsp chia seeds</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1-2 tsp cinnamon </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Method:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. In a small pot, heat rolled oats, milk, water and sugar over medium heat.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. As the mixture boils, stir continuously and vigorously for as long as you can ;)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. Feel free to add water/milk to your desired consistency. Do note that the oatmeal will thicken up as it cools.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4. Remove from heat and stir vigorously for about 15 seconds?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
5. Add in bananas & chia seeds and stir to combine! Try not to break down all the bananas so that a few chunks remain :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
6. Transfer to a bowl and let it cool for awhile before digging in. Meanwhile, sprinkle your favourite toppings on top ^^</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
(that dollop of matcha PB, yum)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love sprinkling tons of cinnamon for that spike in my tastebuds ;) Not to mention, cinnamon helps in your metabolism too :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If running out of time, microwaving for 2-3minutes in 30s intervals works too! That said, cooking over the stovetop yields better texture imo :)</div>

A
one-bowl recipe that's quick to put together and tastes good! Not to
mention it's slightly healthier than usual recipes as it is flourless,
butter-free and raw cacao powder (rich in antioxidants!) is incorporated
;) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I
chose to frost the brownies with some creamy bittersweet matcha
mascarpone for that flavour and colour contrast ;) You just need 3
simple ingredients! </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Brownies</u>: </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees celsius. Grease a rectangular baking sheet and line with baking paper. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. Add all ingredients (except chocolate chips) into a large bowl and beat on medium speed until smooth and well-incorporated. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. Fold in chocolate chips.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4. Spread batter onto the greased pan and sprinkle with additional chocolate chips if desired. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
5.
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with moist
crumbs. The center will appear underdone but it will continue to bake
while cooling! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
6. Cool brownies completely on a cooling rack</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<u><b>Matcha Mascarpone:</b></u></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
2. Spread on the cooled brownies.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<a href="https://www.thegoodnutco.com/" target="_blank">The Good Nut Co'</a>s
Naked Almond Butter is made from 100% blanched almonds and... nothing
else! Pure and natural, this almond butter is preservative-free, refined
sugar free, hydrogenated oil-free, affordable and packed with nutrients
from almonds :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is perfect for this recipe because of it's mild, mellow flavour, but yet incredibly creamy. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Another cool thing about their Naked
Almond Butter, is that it is actually a 2-in-1 almond butter and almond
milk concentrate paste! Simply add hot water to a few tablespoons of
almond butter, strain it with their Ultimate Nut Milk Bag and there you
have it, your very own fresh, homemade almond milk :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I
am personally not a fan of almond milk, but I've made it for family and
friends who loved the natural sweetness and taste of this fresh,
homemade milk. It is definitely a great alternative to dairy milk for
vegans or the lactose-intolerant.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Why
make your own almond milk then? Quoting from The Good Nut Co, "Most
commercial varieties of almond milk are made up of less than 10%
almonds. Research has shown that some brands contain as low as 2%
almonds! The rest of the beverage is made of filtered water, and packed
with sugars, preservatives and stabilizers that are harmful to our
bodies." </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Each jar of The Naked Almond Butter can make up to 4 litres of almond milk (using 1 tbsp of almond butter to 1 cup of water), super affordable and value for money!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
P.S. Almonds are high in Vitamin E, protein, fibre and
anti-oxidants! It also has a low glycemic index which keeps you satiated
and act as a great snack. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
If you are a nuts-lover like me, you will be stoked to know that The Good Nut Co also sells <b>Peanut Butter with crunchy almond chunks!</b> Honestly one of my favorites currently ;) </div>

This is a Mod-Sin recipe created by Celebrity Chef Shen Tan, in collaboration with Knorr Singapore. My 2nd time frying stuff and it was pretty fun!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Recipe as attached:</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Made a few adaptations to the recipe, such as adding cheese!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As for the mashed potatoes, I didn't add any flour at all because the mashed potatoes were sticky enough. I then added an additional yolk, 4 tablespoons of melted butter & a sprinkle of coarse black pepper for good measure :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some tips for mashed potatoes: Instead of adding raw potatoes to boiling water, place them in a large pot and add cold tap water to an inch above the potatoes before boiling. This helps prevent uneven boiling! Also remember to salt your water while boiling the potatoes :)</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Being a self-proclaimed Açaí-holic, I am often found trying all sorts of Açaí bowls in Singapore. It burns a hole in my pocket though, so nowadays I try to make my own Açaí bowl at home because it's so much cheaper, quick, delicious, healthy and the best part? Able to choose whatever toppings I want and adding in as much as my heart desires ;)</span><br />

<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I met up with Kevin, co-founder of Poppy & Co and learnt so much about acai! I have been eating so much of this amazing superfood and it's nice to understand the complete natural profile of Açaí as well as its benefits :) </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">They have kindly sponsored me a box of their organic frozen Açaí pulp and I wasn't required to blog about it. However I felt inclined to share the knowledge from the passionate co-founder himself and to address some questions regarding Açaí :) </span></div>

<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Açaí berries are one of the most nutritious super-berries that comes only from the Amazon Forest.</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Poppy & Co's Organic Açaí is wild harvested, hand-picked straight from the Acai Palm trees, Euterpe oleracea, from the Amazon by the Ribeirinhos (The River People living by the Amazon). They grow in branches that resemble a "broom".</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-family: inherit;">2. What are the benefits of Açaí?</span></b></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Açaí berries contains a high concentration of anthocyanins, a form of plant anti-oxidants that helps lower blood cholesterol levels and has anti-aging purposes. Plant sterols also helps improve our overall blood circulation and heart-health. </span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Other than that, they are also rich in essential fatty acids, dietary fibre, protein, vitamins (vit B-complex, Vitamin K) and over 50 essential minerals such as potassium, iron and magnesium and those unique to the Amazonian soil. </span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">3. <b>Can we eat Açaí berries directly? Why do we only see them in pulp? </b></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I learnt from Kevin that Açaí berries are not your usual soft, juicy berries. Smaller than red grapes and bigger than a blueberry, think of an acai berry as a round white seed that's surrounded by a thin purplish skin where all its nutrients are. Between the seed and skin lies a layer of essential fatty acids! </span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">That's amazing because medium chain fatty acids like linoleic acid (omega-6) and oleic acid (omega-9) are usually found in olive oils and coconut oils, and rarely found in fruits. These fatty acids help reduce LDL-cholesterol and raise the levels of HDL cholesterol which in turn reduce your risk for stroke and heart disease :) Moreover, essential fatty acids are vital in maintaining brain functions, ensuring adequate moisture in your skin and prevent dryness. </span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><img alt="Acai" height="427" src="https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5386a35be4b0bd6d1372c0cf/t/57d3338f5016e199d1d05c87/1473459289517/Acai?format=2500w" width="640" /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Another reason why we don't see Açaí berries out of the Amazon is because they are highly perishable upon harvesting them off the trees. They start fermenting and losing nutrients in less than 24 hours!</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The picture above shows the difference between fresh berries (right) and berries that have dried up and perished (left) within days. </span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Hence in order to preserve all its wonders, it is necessary to retrieve the skin of Açaí berries as soon as possible and frozen pulp it. The best way to enjoy all the benefits of Açaí is to consume it in the frozen pulp form as compared to the powder form. </span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">In Poppy & Co, their facilities are located right at Amazon forest, therefore no time was wasted and the precious organic Açaí berries are processed as soon as possible to retain all its nutrients :)</span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Beware of companies that do not process their Açaí berries straight away as they need to transport these berries to their factories outside of the Amazon forest. As a result, certain additives or chemicals may be added in order to make up for the lost nutrients and color.</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white;">4. What's the taste of </span>Açaí berries?</span></b></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The original taste of Açaí can be described as rich, grainy and almost bitter with deep earthy tones; akin to unsweetened chocolate. </span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Hence it isn't surprising to know that Açaí bowls sold outside are usually sweetened, either with natural sweeteners such as honey/maple/agave syrup, medjool dates, fruits and (hopefully not) sugar. </span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Frozen Açaí pulps that are sweet may contain frightening amount of sweeteners/sugar, so do take note! Poppy & Co's organic Açaí comes in an unsweetened form hence you can take control of the sweetener used and customized your own desired sweetness level :)</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white;">5. Are </span>Açaí berries expensive? </span></b></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">As compared to other common berries (i.e. blueberries, strawberries, raspberries and blackberries) Açaí berries rank highest in terms of its nutrition profile. The concentration of anti-oxidants, protein, vitamins and minerals found in Açaí berries can be up to 10x the amount found in other berries!</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">A box containing <b>4 x 100g</b> Poppy & Co's organic frozen Açaí is sold for a price of <b>$12.90.</b> Upon comparing the price per 100g, the price of organic Açaí is surprisingly the <b>cheapest </b>amongst other berries (non-organic or organic) despite it's tremendous benefits! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
A fuss-free recipe that's quick to put together and healthy at the same time :)<br />
<a name='more'></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
These pancakes are moist, dense and chewy due to the absence of baking powder/whipped egg whites, hence they are not your usual light, fluffy pancakes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No artificial food coloring was used too! Instead, dragonfruit puree (just a tiny bit makes a world of difference!) and acai powder were added for colour. In this case, bananas were used as a combining agent & sweetener :) Do note that these pancakes are not very sweet so feel free to add more maple syrup/honey/dates etc if you have a sweeter tooth!</div>

<b><i>(sugar-, oil- & gluten-free)</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<b>Ingredients:</b><br />
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1.5 cup rolled oats or instant oats</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 cup sugar-free soy milk (or any milk you prefer)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 large bananas or 1/2 cup frozen bananas</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3 tsp Dragonfruit puree</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3 tsp Acai Powder (dissolved in hot water to form a thick paste)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
*Optional: if you prefer a sweeter pancake, :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Method:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. Place oats into a high speed blender/food processor and pulse until fine.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. Add in soy milk and bananas until a sticky batter is formed.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. Divide the batter into 3 bowls.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4. Add dragonfruit puree to 1 bowl, and acai paste into another. (Feel free to adjust the amount added to your desired colour!)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
5. Heat a non-stick pan on medium-low. Drop batter from a height into the pan to achieve round pancakes, about 1/4 cup each time. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
6. Allow to cook until bubbles appear around the edges before flipping.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I've noticed this spanking new mall (Raffles Holland V) at the corner of Holland Village since a couple of weeks ago but never got round to visiting it.</span></div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuEgz2UaIp4PZwGjkvtiqnGHcR80FFRC5sb8h44laviLH2sTQkeqb5jXVnv5oWmNUMPufihbEEqXF0dZSBRTdGIsSpp_SWD-AIlu-31SRSX0Ul-_knXb0ESbPqgXSzvjwOkPM3uJ5pdx91/s1600/2016-07-25+02.21.33+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuEgz2UaIp4PZwGjkvtiqnGHcR80FFRC5sb8h44laviLH2sTQkeqb5jXVnv5oWmNUMPufihbEEqXF0dZSBRTdGIsSpp_SWD-AIlu-31SRSX0Ul-_knXb0ESbPqgXSzvjwOkPM3uJ5pdx91/s640/2016-07-25+02.21.33+1.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Later I found out that it isn't your usual shopping mall, but instead, an integrated medical centre by Raffles Medical Group! Raffles Holland V mall actually offers medical services such as health screening, TCM and even dental care together with F&B options. Really cool, I must say :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiox74CH5SeWocq68cu86-ZJy9A-Zg2nFtyRShkA4wFV-avSRmw4oQxOI2HokZFZRZ0Y5-BEODLuMLyi6hbLFq6V4CdygnDplKsizJbBrFJX_qu5wpw4i54RqLHMFXiMhnVPQ-Ak0gTjWlh/s1600/2016-07-25+02.21.36+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiox74CH5SeWocq68cu86-ZJy9A-Zg2nFtyRShkA4wFV-avSRmw4oQxOI2HokZFZRZ0Y5-BEODLuMLyi6hbLFq6V4CdygnDplKsizJbBrFJX_qu5wpw4i54RqLHMFXiMhnVPQ-Ak0gTjWlh/s640/2016-07-25+02.21.36+1.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Then I heard about this new Scandinavian cafe - <b>Haakon</b>, which specializes in superfood smoothies and acai bowls, and decided to drop by after school one day :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyCQDXFcJF5sOS__jvSjLYXRKDfwM8mRI8ao15NL0Zg644Pk6kzcKZVEde-8eOUESS1Sk0mjnxBxane9M9C5kdFBqOY0O4kd52ELbGeAHPYfLQl_eKqd73_HzSMrjiWgzIaRpKqlCI6nwC/s1600/2016-07-25+02.21.34+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyCQDXFcJF5sOS__jvSjLYXRKDfwM8mRI8ao15NL0Zg644Pk6kzcKZVEde-8eOUESS1Sk0mjnxBxane9M9C5kdFBqOY0O4kd52ELbGeAHPYfLQl_eKqd73_HzSMrjiWgzIaRpKqlCI6nwC/s640/2016-07-25+02.21.34+1.jpg" width="480" /></span></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Definitely a vegan-friendly cafe as they offer vegan options such as the Vegan Salad Bowl, plant-based "almond mylk" and they sell a range of vegan products too! It is popular among the gym-goers as well as they have certain food items that is high in protein. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">For <b>$9.90</b>, i thought the <b>Vegan Bowl </b>was really affordable. It includes avocados, organic quinoa, edamame, sun-dried tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, carrot strips, mushrooms and hummus on a bed of lettuce :) Ingredients were certainly fresh and portion was just nice too!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The quinoa was plain so it went well with a squeeze of lemon, sweet sun-dried tomatoes, creamy avocados and hummus! The hummus was stained a gorgeous pink and I'm guessing there's beetroot in it? The flavour was rich and strong, but might be a bit too garlicky for some.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I ordered the Classic Acai Bowl which is basically Organic Acai Blend topped with berries, coconut and freshly made granola. The other flavours such as Organic Rio Bowl (banana, coconut, pitaya and cacao nibs!) and Green & Lean (spinach, almond butter, mango) sound super good too.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The acai bowls here are slightly different from the rest as they serve it with their homemade chia parfait which provides an extra bite and dose of nutrients. It tasted a tad citrusy and provided a contrasting note to the otherwise sweet dessert.</span></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">You can't really go wrong with acai bowls as they are bound to be sweet and refreshing, but Haakon's version was sandy with black particulates and it made the whole eating experience a little strange. Not that I mind since it was a delicious dessert nonetheless, and the black particulates are probably just acai powder. I would prefer the acai to be more tart, and wish they gave more granola because it was yummy!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Haakon emphasizes on nourishing the body and keeping it in harmony with a well-balanced diet and spiritual comfort. I love how they keep the menu clean, simple and healthy :) Their superior smoked salmon comes straight from the fjords of Norway, wow.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Other options on the menu such as their breakfast items sound really delicious and I hope I get to try them soon. Love how more and more healthy cafes are opening in Singapore :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Check out their menu on their <a href="http://www.haakon.com.sg/pages/menu" target="_blank">website</a>! Can't emphasize how much I appreciate cafes putting up their menus online, it saves so much time especially when I am someone who takes ages to decide what to eat hahahha</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Haakon sells their frozen acai packs well (in stores/online), which is certified organic, vegan, gluten and GMO-free! There's no added sugar or additives as well. Sounds awesome! I've just placed order for 10 packs (for $25.20) and can't wait to receive them :)</span></div>

Ordered<b> Large ($12.90)</b> and the serving cup is so cute! Definitely instagram-worthy. The smoothie itself was tasty and the taste of spinach was masked by the mango :)<br />

<br />
I looove their granola because of the various nuts in it and it's a little sticky, chewy and crunchy at the same time, so satisfying! The chia parfait didn't add much taste to it, but it certainly help fills you up :)<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Had the opportunity to try out <b><a href="http://seedandsoil.sg/products/four-seasons-5-days-cleanse" target="_blank">Seed & Soil</a></b>'s <b>Four Seasons juice cleanse</b>! Am really excited to try this out because unlike the usual juice cleanses out there, these juices have a lower fructose content and an abundance of chlorophyll-rich plants! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I love my greens but i admit it is difficult to consume enough variety and amounts of them on a daily basis :/ Four Seasons are specially targeted towards juice junkies who are experienced and wish to achieve a deeper detox :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"> I was looking forward to this because it sounds like a refreshing & invigorating drink, something that would perk me up in the morning. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">True enough, the instant the drink hits your tongue you would think it's gonna be a sweet citrus-y drink (also smells like Vitamin C lozenges!), but there was a spicy kick from the cayenne pepper that creeps up upon swallowing :) </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">To non-spicy eaters like me, don't worry the spiciness is temporary (just a second) and the tingling sensation actually felt pretty nice :) Cayenne pepper helps boost your metabolism too! There was a slight hint of turmeric too which I thought was quite interesting. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">What an unique & intense drink to start with :) Now I know why the Four Seasons cleanse is not for the faint-hearted hahahaha </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">It was also thicker in consistency compared to the other juices :) This is one of my favorites as it is sweet with a hint of greens 👍</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The carrots gave a sweet taste to the drink and i thought the basil was an interesting touch. The strawberries did made the juice sharp, tangy and slightly stingy to the tongue, might not be enjoyable to some.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Wow this is one potent drink hahaha the veggie taste (esp the celery) was strong and pure, definitely not for the non-veggie lovers! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I love my greens but i admit it was pretty difficult to swallow and it's my least favourite drink, but nonetheless I will eat or drink anything as long as it is good for me hahahaha. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">That said, this would be a perfect drink after a heavy, oily meal or when I'm not getting sufficient greens that day. It does feels nice knowing that you are nourishing your body with vitamin-rich chlorophyll :) </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Four Seasons is a deep alkalizing cleanse which I honestly enjoyed because I love my greens! The fruits used in this cleanse are of a lower fructose content, which means you are getting more vitamins and minerals from the greens involved :) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The juices didn't make me sick (unlike some which may be too sweet or too milky) and I genuinely felt lighter :) Love the inclusion of herbs like mint, parsley and basil which was intriguing and unusual :) However if you are not a fan of herbs, it may need some getting used to!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">It's also awesome that I get to drink a juice every 2 hours so that keeps me from getting hungry or peckish! Being on a juice cleanse also means I didnt have to think of what to eat or snack later hahaha helps me keep my cravings in check too. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Moreover, I love how they list the benefits of the drink on the bottle! A particular juice might taste odd to you but once you see words like ''fat-burning", "anti-aging" etc...... you will feel more compelled to drink hehe </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">If you feel peckish and have the need to snack, i suggest eating salads (smaller portion) with a protein such as chicken or eggs! Juices tend to be lower in fat and protein, hence a snack higher in those will be good to ensure a balanced diet :) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Some may argue against the benefits of juice cleansing and I personally agree that it is not a healthy way to lose weight and one should always lose weight via proper exercise and a balanced diet. However with that said, I do think that a juice cleanse is good once in awhile to rest your digestive system and a way to detox after a holiday feast or weekend binge, just to restart you back on track again :) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">On the day after your cleanse, it is recommended to start with light meals and not overwhelm your system with heavy, oil or fat laden food! Remember to keep yourself hydrated and drink water! Your total water intake should not be just from the juices alone :)</span></div>

Bro's birthday celebration at <b>Little Diner </b>a couple of weeks ago!<br />
<a name='more'></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Little Diner is situated at Bukit Timah, near Sixth Avenue MRT station. It serves hearty comfort food with generous portions and I've heard tons about the food here & how affordable it is.</div>

<b>Rosario’s Fried Risotto Balls (S$9.50) </b>with a molten mozzarella centre, tomato coulis, basil pesto and parmesan cheese. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hot crispy exterior encasing mushy rice grains almost resembling risotto. Textures were great but can be a tad bland when eaten on it's own, it was delicious when paired with the tomato coulis!<br />
<br />
We wished there was more mozzarella inside too. A side great for sharing though :)</div>

<b>Version 2.0 Baked Mac & Cheese Royale (S$20.50) </b><br />
<br />
I knew I had to order this when I saw it on the menu. This Mac & Cheese comes with wild mushrooms and a generous douse of truffle oil and we could smell it even before eating it.<br />
<br />
This is definitely not for the faint-hearted as it was VERY milky and cheesy, just the way I like it hahaha. Bro didn't like it that much because it was too overwhelming, but I thought that's how a good old Mac & Cheese should be like! That said, please order it to share as it will get quite sickening if you eat it by yourself.<br />

<b>Little Diner Truffle Fries ($9.50 for Small, $16.50 for Large)</b><br />
<br />
Hand-cut fries tossed with truffle oil, smashed garlic, black pepper and topped with grated parmesan cheese.<br />
<br />
One of my favorite places for truffle fries now! I love how the fries are fried evenly and look rugged. They were crisp, slightly soggy and soft inside with a strong kick of truffle. The smashed garlic heightened the flavour profile and certainly satisfied our savory tastebuds.<br />

<b>Seafood Fra Diavlo ($23.50)</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
Tiger Prawns & Calamari Rings sauteed in tasty Fra Diavlo (spicy tomato sauce), tossed and served over linguine. Generous amount of seafood and the pasta was cooked al dente. It wasn't too oily and the dish came together nicely with well-balanced flavors coming from the Italian herbs and tomato sauce.<br />

<b>Mikey's Fish & Chips ($18.50)</b><br />

<b>Signature Tiramisu ($9)</b><br />
<br />
We were impressed with their mains but unfortunately didn't quite like the tiramisu as it lacked the liqueur component. Also, we would prefer if they serve it with ice cream instead of whipped cream!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Overall a wonderful place to hang out with friends. Delicious American food (with similar portion size hahaha), affordable price tags, frequent weekday dining promotions and happy hours!<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Our first stop - <b>Kraftwich by Swissbake! </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">If you didn't already know, Kraftwich is a new concept by SwissBake which serves signature sandwiches and HUGE sandwiches made fresh everyday and filled with nutritious ingredients. The bread used are freshly baked and vary from sandwiches. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Lucky us got to try out their latest salad offerings, and my favourite was this<b> Beef Pastrami Salad ($9.90)</b>! I love how the beef pastrami was lean, not overly salty and went really well with the cheese :) It is affordably priced as well!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">You can choose to customize your own salad, or they have other options such as Turkey (one of my favourites as it is high in protein and low in fat), Tuna & Egg, Smoked Salmon, Smoked Duck, Smoked Chicken and also a Vegetarian option for non-meat eaters. If you are not a fan of salads, you will be glad to know that they have these options sold in the form of Kraftwiches too! </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Kraftwiches - Portobello, Smoked Chicken, and Smoked Salmon (all Kraftwiches are <b>$8.90</b>)!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I liked the Smoked Salmon sandwich which contained generous slices of smoked salmon and crunchy greens, not to mention the grainy bread which provided a dark nutty flavour :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Portobello Sandwich is another popular option for the ladies. It consist of juicy Portobello mushrooms, fresh cucumbers in between slices of maize bread! Maize bread is actually a type of bread made from cornmeal flour and has a distinctive flavor. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For the calorie-conscious, feel free to ask the staff or check out their website for the calorie content of each sandwich :)</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ironically, a healthy cafe like Kraftwich serve desserts as well, and i have to say they look really pretty! We tried the Hazelnut Crunch (Front Right), Paradiso di Nicciola (dark & dome-shaped) and Raspberry Chocolate Romance which tasted normal and nothing to shout about.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
P.S. Buy any one of Kraftwich's sandwich, wraps or pastries and enjoy your coffee for just $3! If you are into cold-pressed juices like me, you can purchase a cold-pressed orange juice for $5 with every purchase of a Kraft Salad. I would also recommend the Beetroot Orange cold-pressed juice as it was indeed sweet and refreshing, perfect for a hot sunny day!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I enjoyed the former though the quinoa may be too bland for some. Cranberries and corn was used which added a touch of sweetness :) Plus the side of grilled pumpkin was creamy and sweet!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh, enjoy a free UCC matcha latte with every purchase of their Healthy Chicken Quinoa (333 kcal) </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Bull's Eye was well-received that night! Imagine hot savory beef stew over nutty brown rice and topped with a poached egg, it was truly satisfying. Comfort food made healthy! I think this will be popular among guys, who hate greens but am trying to eat clean :)</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The soba noodles were creamy, tangy but may be overwhelming at times. Also, i find that they are slightly too soft for my liking and some may find it too mushy. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>

Finally reviving the blog after exams! Can't believe M3 is over just like that :')</div>

So the man surprised me with a staycation this weekend at Amara Hotel!! :') Imagine my shock when he led me into the lobby when I thought we are just going 100am for lunch haha</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Service was excellent during check-in and they were so apologetic when we couldn't check in early due to limited rooms available. However we got our room pretty quickly, just before lunch! :)</div>

The room was spacious and comfortable! I thought it was a pretty sweet deal for<b> $168</b> (after GST & service charge) considering it's size and amenities. We got the <b>Deluxe Double Room with King Sized Bed</b> (32sqm) :) No buffet breakfast included!</div>

The chicken leg was really tender and flavourful, though i admit it looked pale and boring at first sight. We didn't particularly enjoy the rice though because it just tasted like normal brown rice :/ </div>

Fancy French! Heard so much raving reviews that I just had to try it. The brioche itself was soft and chewy, but there was too much honey and though it helps cut through the tang from the fig jam, it got really overwhelming at times. </div>

Soy yogurt tasted very...... artificial. Hahaha I was pretty apprehensive about trying this but he was like, "aiya it's vanilla, how bad can it be." Turns out both of us couldn't eat more than 3 mouthfuls HAHAHA the texture + taste was just weird :( There is a subtle hint of soy though, but other than that I can't take it haha</div>

Lucky us got to try their new menu which they just launched today! Basically you get to customize your order instead of choosing their premade sets :) The calories and protein per serving are listed, which is really useful for those who are counting their macros/watching their calorie intake :) </div>

He ordered the <b>beef steak, cauliflower "fried rice", soba noodles, garlic & chilli, as well as miso sauce</b>! The beef was cooked perfectly, not too chewy and seasoned lightly to retain the natural flavours. A delightful lunch for him indeed :)</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I got the <b>spiced chicken breast, barley mushroom risotto, tofu salad, super seeds and pesto sauce</b> :) Sigh the risotto was disappointing because it was sooo bland, did they forget to add salt? The cream sauce was also thick and tasteless :( I felt like I was eating plain barley which I don't mind but i was expecting something more. Chicken breast was lean and a tad dry but I like it this way :) The tofu salad was dressed in soy and tasted like Japanese inari!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Despite some misses, I really enjoyed my time at YOLO because the service was splendid and I see so much potential here :) Everyone was in smiles and keen to help. I will definitely return to try out more items on the menu! Already have my eye on their breakfast menu because it sounds and looks incredible :)</div>

When I first tried hummus, i didn't like it because of it's strange, earthy taste. It's amazing how it is now one of my favourite spreads ;) I would say that hummus is an acquired taste but only if you love strong, exotic flavours. Not to mention it's so healthy as it's packed with protein and fibre!</div>

Adapted this recipe from Smitten Kitchen! But I would say just use the recipe to give you an idea of the ingredients needed, then slowly taste as you go along. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used canned chick peas because it saves me SO much time, do try to buy organic ones or those with only water & chickpeas in their ingredient list :) See the link below if you wish to use dried chick peas!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Adapted from<a href="http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2013/01/ethereally-smooth-hummus/" target="_blank"> here</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Ingredients:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 can of chickpeas<br />
2 tbsps of tahini paste<br />
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice, or more to taste (i omitted this)<br />
2 small cloves garlic, roughly chopped </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3/4 teaspoon table salt, or more to taste<br />
Approximately 1/4 cup water or reserved chickpea cooking water </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Olive oil/truffle oil, paprika, cumin</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Method:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. Drain the canned chickpeas and peel them! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZ0U8Esg8n5Wln31zSVX7vazsQwAu8S6Lrs3of23Jn5e6WocD3KY4uDmk1Hl31DCRdDhem5cX2Rl1_Zwxu-zrdBRhSuRq3pfkghLyy0MXkQMlJgJ5qciGSWSjSlYbiQowivMRfS6j2hhuy/s1600/20160206_085912.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZ0U8Esg8n5Wln31zSVX7vazsQwAu8S6Lrs3of23Jn5e6WocD3KY4uDmk1Hl31DCRdDhem5cX2Rl1_Zwxu-zrdBRhSuRq3pfkghLyy0MXkQMlJgJ5qciGSWSjSlYbiQowivMRfS6j2hhuy/s640/20160206_085912.jpg" width="640" /></a> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used to peel them 1 by 1 (omg...) until my dad taught me an easier method. Soak the chickpeas in a bowl of water, then dip your fingers in and slowly pop the skin off each chickpea :) You will get the hang of it pretty soon and it's actually pretty therapeutic. Wait for a few seconds for the skins to float to the surface (make sure you have enough water in the bowl) before removing them and draining the water. Super simple! Thanks dad :')</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh you don't have to peel off all the skins, peeling them just makes your hummus smoother :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwq7ATFVF1xv7x5-DS5haXd5QgaKo0C56VfekoE6PorSYVD-slwHThrZO1R6hL4IQZjoCDikLRbCvFT1FSHhA2VKZIx3Xtw0ZktyUhyHu8EZ4qReT7712Yaxi-IZg0rvI6uxRMdg3CBfjP/s1600/20160221_092101.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwq7ATFVF1xv7x5-DS5haXd5QgaKo0C56VfekoE6PorSYVD-slwHThrZO1R6hL4IQZjoCDikLRbCvFT1FSHhA2VKZIx3Xtw0ZktyUhyHu8EZ4qReT7712Yaxi-IZg0rvI6uxRMdg3CBfjP/s640/20160221_092101.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i> The floating skins ~ </i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. In a food processor, add the chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice,
garlic and salt and blend until pureed. With the machine running,
drizzle in water or reserved chickpea cooking water, 1 tablespoon at a
time, until you get very smooth, light and creamy mixture. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. Add spices such as paprika, cumin etc. Taste and adjust seasonings, adding more salt, lemon or garlic as desired.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4. To serve, drizzle with a little olive oil (or truffle oil for that extra indulgence) and a sprinkle of coarse black pepper. Pair it with toasts, pita, wraps or vegetable sticks! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To go with the hummus, I made wraps with roasted butternut squash (basically olive oil, salt and pepper and baked it for 25mins at 180 degrees celsius), scrambled eggs, cheese and leafy salad greens :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

We were thrilled because The White Rabbit is known for its splendid atmosphere, beautiful interior decoration and it was the winner of the Singapore Experience Awards Best Dining
Experience category in 2009, and qualified as finalists for subsequent years! The White Rabbit is housed in an old Ebenezer Chapel with its interior still preserved, we spent some time admiring the intricate details and decorative grilles. A romantic place indeed :)</div>

Mom, sis and Alan chose this and they loved it! I took a teeny bite and.... had to spam lots of water after that hahaha organs are not my thing. However, they say eating Foie Gras is about appreciating the texture? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They mentioned that the Foie Gras was cooked perfectly; creamy, melts in your mouth and rich in flavor. The sourness from the vinegar also balances the richness of the foie gras. I thought the truffle jelly was interesting, though strangely the taste didn't shine through.</div>

Well-executed
dish though i wished the truffle taste could be more pronounced! Not sure
what grain they used but it wasn't the usual arborio. I actually liked
this grain more as it retains its shape so the dish wasn't too mushy
like porridge, and every bite was chewy and delightful :) I enjoy biting
each individual grain that has soaked up the fragrant mushroom broth! A
satisfying dish :)</div>

Really
delicious! Was afraid it might be too creamy, sweet and eggy but the
flavour was pleasantly balanced. However consuming it all at one setting may
be slightly overwhelming.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Went really well the buttery and crispy biscotti too!</div>

We all thought the Festive Lunch Set was pretty value for money, it was about $50/pax after GST & service charge. However their food, though unique and well-prepared, did not leave a deep impression on us. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Service was impeccable as the staff were attentive and polite and it definitely made our dining experience an enjoyable one :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Since it was a celebratory lunch for my bro's birthday, the staff wrote Happy Birthday on his dessert and even printed a photo she took for us! This thoughtful gesture certainly won our hearts :')</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The food at The White Rabbit may not be outstanding but that can be slightly forgiven when you are dining at such a romantic place :) I would say you are paying more for the ambience and service, and it's pretty worth it :)</div>
