Singapore Night Light Festival

The annual night light festival will be back at Bras Basah on 19, 20, 26 and 27 August. Be dazzled by the light arts performances and sculptures. Last year when my cousin and I attended this free event, we had to jostle our way to various light arts performances as road was congested with people. We were just surrounded by so many people with hardly breathing space. I'm not exaggerating, both locals and tourists were there to enjoy the free events. Singapore is a small island of 700km square yet there are 5 million locals and residents. I do hope there be more security in this public event. 

Date: 19, 20, 26 and 27 Aug (both Fri and Sat)

TIme: 7.30pm to 2am. 

Yummy Desserts at Honeymoon Dessert at Ion Orchard

One of the main reasons why I go to Ion Orchard shopping mall is to satisfy my craving for double-boiled milk with walnut and almond dessert, follow by a trip to the bookshop at Ngee Ann City. The silky smooth dessert with crunchy almond and walnut just makes me happy. Hmm, maybe next week I go to Ion Orchard to have my favourite dessert!

First Singaporean Selected in Sing!China

Finally a Singaporean is chosen in the prestigious Sing!China, formally known as Voice of China. Talented Chinese singers from around the world participate in this competitive singing competition in China. In the past Malaysian and Thai Chinese were selected. It made me wonder when there be a Singaporean in the show.  What is amazing is all four judges want Nathan Hartono to be part of their teams. In the end, Nathan chose Jay Chou, Mando King of Pop to be his mentor. Wise choice I must say since Jay Chou is gifted in music composing and his partner Fang Wen San is talented in Chinese lyrics. 

Lilytopia at Gardens by the Bay

This month floral theme at Flower Dome at Gardens by the Bay is Lilytopia. There are many Lily varieties currently on display at flower dome. Its the first time they play music (the 60s) in the flower dome. Lilytopia ends tomorrow. 

Chai Tow Kway aka Fried Carrot Cake

One of my favourite breakfast dish is Chai Tow Kway also known as fried carrot cake. It is a popular Teochew cuisine. It comes in two version; black which is doused with black soya sauce and is sweeter compared to the white version. I prefer white chai tow kway. My favourite stall is the one at Tampines round market at Blk 139.
