About Me

Profile

My name is Aisha, a perfectionist and a complete foodie. I love food and I love exploring food at every corners of Singapore and if I can afford to go to another country, I would definitely become a world-class food blogger. Dining, travelling, Movies, Shopping are my interests and I love makeup too. I always get my hands working on eye-shadows and I learn to apply through the online tutorials in youtube. I love camwhoring and most of the time; I am armed with a camera and that explains the food pictures in my blog. I am blessed!

PRATA CAFE

PRATA CAFE

Evans Road, where PRATA CAFE is situated. The area is located at at quiet road which leads to the Botanical Gardens from Bukit Timah Road.

PRATA CAFE has staggered 34 varieties of pratas which opened in early May. Prices range from 80 cents to $6. The cafe has an alfresco dining area too, sells 1,500 pratas a day on weekdays and about 2,000 on weekends.

Muhyi dearest brought me there for dinner. Muhyi ordered the Italian Prata ($6), the signature dish, which is a delicious crispy invention with a generous filling of mutton, cheese, mushroom, onion and capsicum. It's a bit like pizza, except the ingredients are stuffed in the middle.

I ordered French prata which was the Chef's recommendation. This prata was chopped into small pieces and had green capsicum, egg, minced meat and crab meat. It was served with dhal curry. The prata tasted yummilicious.

They even have this Greek Salad Prata ($2.50), a vegetarian prata served with dhal curry. What turned out to be a coincidence is that, they own Mr. Prata too, which I blogged about last year.

ALLAUDDIN'S BRIYANI

ALLAUDDIN'S BRIYANI

Yesterday was indeed a pleasant day with Muhyi darlz. As planned, we went to Cathay and bought our havaianas white slippers. We also caught up with a movie named "The Waterhorse" which has a beautiful storyline that even brought tears to our eyes. After the movie, I was hungry and I had to really really really eat Nasi Briyani at Allauddin's Briyani which is located at Tekka Market. Previously, I went there with my uncle and his family for lunch. Every grain of rice is coloured a beautiful yellow and so evenly infused with spices that you can savour its delightful fragrance.

The owner cooks it just moist enough to go with the superb dry sambal and the wonderfully tender mutton and chicken. The excellent South Indian-style briyani, which he has been cooking for 30 years, draws long queues every day.

The taste was so rich that I had to bring Muhyi to try the briyani there.

After a few handful of briyani, even Muhyi agreed that the briyani was delicious.

Even though, I'm not a briyani person, I can eat Allauddin's Briyani everyday till my heart can take it.

STARBUCKS

STARBUCKS

what's brewing???

A Starbucks coffee store is a special place. But most of all, it's your place.
Some people come here to drink the world's best coffee. Some come here to be alone with their thoughts or together with a best friend. Some come here to listen to the incredible music. Some come here to take part in a neighbourhood event. Some come here for all of those reasons and a thousand more.

Starbucks coffee houses offer more than the finest coffee sourced from across the globe. Friendly people, great music and a comfortable upbeat meeting place create the famous Starbucks Experience.
The layout and atmosphere of Starbucks stores is specifically designed to be cosy and intimate, while at the same time providing people with their own personal space to use as they wish. The combination of sofas, armchairs, coffee tables and chairs, bars and stools, and meeting room tables means that there is something for everyone.
Those looking for peace and quiet away from home or the office can relax and linger in a comfortable armchair and escape into a book, whilst those looking for an intimate place to meet friends can huddle on a sofa and chat over a mug of coffee, as they would in their own home.

I have been to Starbucks with Muhyi darlz, often to relax and chill.

JB Seafood Centre

JB SEAFOOD CENTRE

My uncle and aunt planned to bring my cousins and me to JB Seafood centre to have dinner.
It was really very thoughtful of them to bring us along wth their family.
We travelled there by my uncle's car.

While, my uncle was driving, we were making alot of noise. Singing, cracking jokes and making fun of one another and talking about our childhood moments. The journey to the JB seafood centre was indeed enjoyable.

When we arrived there, there were already alot of people feasting on their food. I finally guessed that it had to be a very popular place. The food there were all so mouth watering and when we ordered our dishes, I was really impatient and couldn't wait to munch away on the food. We ordered about 8-9 dishes and even ordered Butter sotong a second time cause it was soooooooo yummy. After finishing up all our main and side dishes, we even ordered desserts. I ordered Kampong Ice Kachang whereas Badrun ordered Longan Dessert.

Badrun was so terrible, she only ate the Longan fruit and left the rest of the dessert to waste.

Overall, the food there were fantastic and I couldnt resist the food there. On the way back, we were playing guessing games, singing and after all those good food, we tend to feel really sleepy.

Later then, my uncle sent each and every one of us back home.

BEST ICE CREAM ON THE PLANET !!!

If you like "stuff" in your ice cream.. it would be a sin not to try Ben & Jerry's..! And with names like Chunky Monkey, Chubby Hubby, Turtle Soup, Phish Food, Dublin Mudslide.. gawd, you know you can't go wrong if you're looking for some happening ice cream to blow your mind out :o)

I travel a lot and I have tasted Ben & Jerry's with Muhyi dearest (aka Muhyiddeen and that's how i call him) and seriously, I don't think I can go through the month without at least two scoops of Ben & Jerry's Cookies and Cream (from the scoop-shop) or Phish Food (with fish shaped chocolate fudge)..The outlet at VivoCity is quaint. You just wanna bring your friends and family and feel all happy and young again seated in those little stools (made to look like cow-belly) and the "Wishing Tree" which is full of wishes by patrons like you and me :o)

They have too many flavours to choose from so I hope you have a taste-test before deciding on your favourites. And if you belong in my category and get all fuzzy and greedy.. it will take you all day to savour all the flavours..! Writing this is making me crave for some ice cream.. lucky I keep a few pints in my freezer just for such occassions.. hahaha..

His one was the Phish Food. Look at the way he is sucking the ice-cream without leaving a single bit of it with his spoon.

His CUTE smile.

A quick snap of myself while he was busy munching away his waffle dish.

I'm back! *Gives a warm smile* I know, I know. I've been missing for quite some time. It seems like its been 10 yrs since I blogged. Well, I was very much occupied with my new school, new friends,my family and my boyfriend. *Winks* Since there's a new member to my personal life, I had to assure that I spend time with each and everyone fairly.

Speaking about my school, I'm currently enrolled into Temesek Polytechnic, which takes about 5 years to reach to Tampines from Chinese Garden. And how finally I got the time to blog is actually cause of my vacation. I'm finally done with all my tests, quizes and exams. My first semester is finally over and I'm so done with all the exams. Phew! * Gives out a huge sigh*

I didnt blog cause of my busy schedule. I didnt even have that much of time to travel around to try out different food. Most of the time, I had to drop by any fastfood restaurant to have a quick bite before my next destination. Somehow I managed to find time to travel to 3 to 4 places to try out different food places. Even though, I didnt had the time to blog, I somehow managed to snap pictures of the food. I had went to a few places and tried out so many sumptuous food. There were all so yummy and tasty. I had tried out the food at places such as JB Seafood centre, AL-AMEEN muslim food place, Prata Cafe, The Pizzahut and many other places that you guys would not have imagined. Check out the interesting and cool places that I have been to. Enjoy. Take care peeps =)
