Domino-ing the evening away

Pizza is like an easy to eat and convenient takeaway for our hectic lifestyles. Just pick up the phone to order and in less than an hour, a piping hot pizza will arrive at your doorstep. The timely invite by William and Domino's finally gave me a chance to try and have a better insight of Domino's Pizzas.

Once you place the order via the hotline, online or even using their IPhone App, Domino's will guarantee a 30-min delivery; 15 minute takeout guarantee. Product satisfaction guarantee. Delivery is Free of Charge! Nett Pricing! No GST, No Delivery Charges!

The Pizza was so yummy

All pizzas are handmade and in order to ensure a constant quality, all pizzas with ingredients are being weighed before baking.

Currently Domino's is having a "2 Pizzas" Deal and Double Delights. There are 28 unique pizza flavours to choose from, you will be spoilt for choice. 2 Regular Pizzas for just SGD$22 nett with Free Delivery! This is such a Good Deal!
 

Just pick your favourite flavour then choose your preferred crust.

                                            So many kinds of crusts for your choice

My personal favourite, "Meatasaurus" with loads of Beef Pepperoni, Ground Beef , Mushrooms, Smoky BBQ Sauce and Cheesy Crust.
 

You can choose from the variety of scrumptious sides and delectable desserts from their Double Delights promotion. Some worthy mention of the side combos I tried. All the sides in Domino's are baked. Hence they are healthier to consume.

The Garlic Twisty Bread looked hard. I had a bite and fell in love. It was soft and fluffy.

Garlic Cheese Onion Rings

Cinnastix with the sauce

Crazy Chicken Crunches (Original Flavour)

The to-die-for Chocolate Lava Cake. I was very surprised the Lava Cake was really delicious. The warm chocolate flowing out of the pure chocolate cake.  Not too sweet, the taste was just perfect!

 

                                

Napolitana Baked Meatballs. The perfect combination of tomato and cheese sauce on top of the meatballs. All baked to perfection. Meat was not chewy.  Ideal for the meat lover.

 

The event truly changed my impression of Domino's. It is not just another typical Pizza Shop. The team at Domino's Pizza really take pains to master the art of Pizza Making and most importantly they appreciate the Customers.

A Nostalgic Morning at The Dispensary Cafe

A lovely Friday, up and excited, looking forward to a scrumptious feast in The Dispensary whilst an overdue catch-up with a girlfriend. 

The Dispensary is a quaint café with a strong traditional interior decoration influence, nestled in the  midst of Tiong Bahru.  Gone were the yester years as a Medical Hall, it is now being restored as a café serving unassuming and healthy Western fare made with the flavour of personal touch.

Ever wonder this is actually a cafe? 

 

   An old medical hall with a modern twist.

Medicine Boxes are the main centrepiece for this café. 

 

The old signboard was restored.

Spotted a traditional Chinese Herbs cutter.

Truly a mix of old and new.

The pot was used by the previous owners for cooking. Now it has become a showpiece in the café.

Wohoo, there is a Gramophone! I love it!

Collections of old kitchenware on display

Coffee tasted even better with these cups

Sewing machine to be used as a side table? What a clever and innovative idea for recycling.

Walls and floors were deliberately done up to create the rustic old feel.

Busy at work

Must try! This was really delicious! I couldn't stop eating.  The Kueh Lapis was made with the owners' secret home recipe. The texture was soft, yet not soggy, and not sweet.

Good old New York Cheesecake. A must-have for cheese lovers. Lots of rich cream cheese with a hint of lemon to accentuate the cheese flavour.

Red Velvet Cake. Silky Smooth Vanilla Cream Cheese with moist Red Velvet. So pretty and yummy.

Chocolate Banana Cake.  Layers of Valrhona chocolate cake interwhined with fresh banana slices and infused chocolate cream cheese. What a heavenly combination.

 

Sea Salt Caramel Cupcake.  I love everything Salted Caramel. A rich butter cake infused with their own concoction of homemade caramel sauce and sea salt crystals.

Chocolate Storm Cupcake. This devilish chocolate cake made from Valrhona cocoa, swathed in luscious chocolate cream cheese and topped with chocolate macaron. Pure sinful indulgence. So glad it was not very sweet and I could  finish all up in a jiffy. Loved the macaron too.

 

Lychee Indulgence Cupcake. With lychee, what could go wrong?  A rich butter cake with cream frosting with the lychee taking centrestage.  Slurps.

 

Egg Benedict. My Must-Order for Breakfast. Loving how the Hollandise sauce blended with the poached egg and meaty bacon.

 

Duck Confit Aglio Olio. The duck meat was sautéed with spices. Meat was very tender and fresh, not at all chewy.

The to-die-for Truffle Fries. Using the freshest ingredients, the fries were so irresistible, we finished all up in 5 mins. There was no such word "fat" in our dictionary.

With the talented Chef Harrison who is the brainchild behind all the pretty and yummicilious pastries.

I loved the steel door when you dragged it to one side to close. Really brought back the times when I was a kid in my grandparents' house.

We had an awesome time reminiscing our childhood days in The Dispensary.  Good food, good company and good ambience. What more could I ask for? Appreciate the kind invitation from the bosses of The Dispensary. There were no pictures taken with the bosses as they were rather "camera shy". One more place in my list of favourite cafes. I will be seen popping by more often for my regular cuppa and dessert fix. Not forgetting the sinful Truffle Fries too!

Head over Heels with Zell-V

Beauty is being the most possible version of yourself on the inside and out. When you are in the pink health, it will bring about radiance, energy and vitality.

 

 On my earlier blog on Zell-V, they did a test on my cellular health. I was not the worst of the lot, but still had room for improvements on my health. I had few free radicals, which could lead to more problems. 

 

Kick started my Zell-V journey for about 2 weeks now. I delayed my start due to a skin breakout previously. I didn't want to mix my antibiotics with Zell-V (though doc said it was fine) and I wanted to achieve the true effects from Zell-V.

 

 

All soft gels are securely packed to maintain their freshness. 

All boxes of Zell-V come with a Certificate of Origin to prove its authenticity.

Ingredients of each softgel:

* 300mg of Concentrated Active Material Extracted from 15000mg of Fresh Sheep Placenta  (50:1)

* 200mg Shark Liver Oil 

* 200mg Grapeseed Oil

* 2nd Gen Enteric-coated Softgel

Zell-V is manufactured under stringent safety and quality assurance regulations and constant supervision by the health authorities. Hence has therefore earned many prestigious awards. 

 

        This was me when I was 31 years old.

    This is the current me at 38 years old.

After two weeks of taking Zell-V, the most significant postive effect on me was having a complete night's rest. All the while, I used to have a whole night of dreams when I would wake up the next  morning feeling lethargic. 

I also realised I dropped lesser strands of hair now after washing. Instead of a clump of hair, it was just few strands of it now after combing. This was amazing. 

With a hectic lifestyle as a career woman, mum of two young girls and blogger. Zell-V had indeed helped me to tide through these weeks in a breeze. I could still continue to look great or even better in the most easy and effective way. 

Prominent Benefits of ZÉLL-V Sheep Placenta Extract:

• Smoothes away wrinkles, lightens facial pigmentation & improves complexion

• Improves skin elasticity & enhances skin texture

• Enhances stamina & energy level

• Improves sleep patterns

• Stabilizes weight to a normal level

• Improves alertness & mental awareness

• Decreases serum concentrations of cholesterol & triglycerides

• Decreases premenstrual tension & feminine problems

• Increases flexibility in joints & discs

• Regenerates cells, tissues & organs

• Improves immune defense against diseases

• Firms up the bust

• Reduces premenopausal syndrome & delays menopause

• Decreases risk of heart disease

• Improves blood circulation

• Increases vigour & vitality

I will continue with Zell-V to combat premature aging. With younger cells, it will lead to a healthier body. When you are in the pink of health, your face will glow too.

At 2am in the morning now, still up and awake writing, it had really proven the amazing effects of Zell-V. Isn't this such an incredible invention just for us busy ladies who want the best for ourselves?

Kickstart your journey with Zell-V by fixing a Cell Check now.

Soft and Silky Tresses with Shiseido by Easels

 

 

My hair is the perfect accessory to complete the overall look.  The hustle and bustle of life and the constant use of chemicals on the hair, are the main culprits for my hair problems. In order to maintain my hair at its tip top condition, monthly scalp and hair treatment is essential to keep problems at bay.

 

When Wendy from Easels was raving to me about the amazing effects of the Shiseido Ultimate  5-step Reconstruction Treatment, I had to give it a try!

 

  Products that would be used for the Treatment were displayed nicely on the trolley. Truly professional and premium.

 

 

 Step 1: The designated Shampoo was mix with hot water. The mixture was whisked with a brush to become foamy.

 

 

The stylist applied the foamy mixture onto my hair. This removed all obstructive elements attached to the hair surface. Hence, hair felt very dry after washing off.

 Step 2: My hair was considered low damaged as I did monthly hair treatments. In the solution, it contained an agent "Ion Navigator" which was uniquely developed by Shiseido. It helped to eliminate calcium ions pile-ups rooted deep inside hair while preventing re-absorption from taking place.

 

 See the special gadget used to spray the solution to the hair. So cool!

 

 This was doing deep detox to the hair. What? Even hair needs to detox too?

 

 

Step 3-4 was to inject repair agents into the hair with spatula. This would repair the damages to the surface of the hair. Lots of application and washing throughout the treatment:-P

 

The amazing triple-layer micro-coating cream would help to protect the hair from sebum, water (used for daily shampooing) and friction (static electricity).

 

 Hair felt airy, shiny and smooth after it was blown dry. It was such a joy to touch my hair. The effect was comparatively like what you achieved with re-bonding. The entire treatment took an hour to complete.

 

 

Whilst doing my treatment, I was also enjoying my hot Milo and artisan cakes with compliments from Easels. The team at Easels paid attention to every little details. Knowing most customers will sit through hours for major hair overhaul or will rush to the salon after work, drinks and cakes were served on the house to curb the hunger pangs. I was truly impressed.

 

For a head of crown glory, do head down to Easels for a fun hair pampering time. Shiseido Premium 5-Step Treatment is now having a 20% discount off their usual price of $248 till 31 September 2014.  Just quote "Ms Oinkee" to enjoy the promotion.

Easels is a newly opened salon that provides a suite of holistic services to pamper you from head to toe. They are conveniently located at:

New Additions in Spicy Thai-Thai Cafe

 

The chefs at Spicy Thai-Thai Café are always creating New dishes so customers are never bored of going back. To add more "Spice" to the repertoire of traditional dishes, they created these few new fusion dishes for a East-meet-West flavour.

 

I started with the Nacho Chips with a Spicy Thai specially-made Avocado Dip. Avocado dips are own-made from scratch using fresh avocadoes.

 

The taste was so refreshing and I couldn't stop munching. Do you know that Avocadoes have lots of health benefits? They can help to lower cholesterol levels, reduce the risk of diabetes, promote lower body weight and prevent cancer. So healthy food does not equate to awful taste afterall.

 Nacho Chips with Avocado Dip at $12

 

I jumped with excitement upon seeing the Pork Porridge on the new menu list. I always love Pork Porridge. When  I saw it being served, it gave me a feeling of being at Home. The taste of the porridge felt like it was cooked with love by mum. Yummy! This savoury and flavourful dish was warm and comforting. It is a favourite with the Teochews in Thailand too.

 

Pork Porridge is at $5

 

Instead of using oil, the chef opted to use water for healthier eating. One of my favourites for the evening. I was intrigued by the crispy sun-dried fish. They looked like a beautiful garnish and actually equally tasty to eat. The kind of creativity and thoughts put into a simple egg dish. That is amazing.

Water-Fry Egg with Thai -Style Crispy Sun-Dried Fish $12

 

Fish Maw Crab Meat boiled in coconut husk was like a match made in heaven. Chef added fresh coconut flesh inside too. Together with the seafood, they brought out the real sweetness in the soup. Everything just tasted perfect.

 

Fish Maw Crab Meat Soup at $28 (4-pax portion)

 

I was always so full whenever I did food tasting. This time was no exception too. However, I just had to taste the dessert Tapioca with coconut milk. Tapioca was steamed and mixed with freshly squeezed coconut juice. It was truly sinful but irresistible.

 

                             

                                              Steamed Tapioca with Coconut Milk at $3.50

 

 

Snippets on Spicy Thai

 

Spicy Thai-Thai Café was founded by homegrown businessman, Ron Poh five years ago. With the success of its first outlet in Jalan Besar, the second shop was sprouted at Aljunied Avenue 2 in 2013.

 

Ron has an unexplained affinity with anything Thai, from culture to food. What started out as a passion for seeking authentic Thai food results in him wanting to present the most authentic experience for his customers at Spicy Thai-Thai Café.

 

Come on down to have your taste buds sing and dance to the symphonic orchestra of flavours at Spicy Thai-Thai Café now.
