So as you all have known, I'm back to my lovely childhood home in Pasir Ris! :)
Even though I'm still not accustomed to it, I'm still loving every moment of it!
It has indeed been eons since I've last spent time with my younger bro, and yesterday I finally got to do so!
At first, the bf, Jojo and moi wanted to try out Singapore very first and unique Cat Cafe called Neko no Niwa.. However after traveling there, we were somewhat disappointed. The cafe and the cats area are literally two separate rooms. Initially we thought that the cats were given the freedom to roam about, which makes the ambience ever more unique. However it felt more like a petting zoo, and the rates were a tad too overpriced. In addition, they didn't serve main courses, they only served the usual cakes and drinks: more towards the idea of afternoon tea.
Nevertheless this did not dampen our spirits. Since we were around the area of Clarke Quay, we decided to head to one of the bf and my favorite spots to eat @Central! The place is none other than our most liked Waraku Japanese Restaurant. Why? Their Japanese pizza is simply top-notch.
So anyways we made our way there in the sweltering heat and thank goodness when we reached there, the place was not crowded. And we managed to settle down pretty fast to order our items!
Jojo tried out their Macha and it was surprisingly good despite how simple it looked.
And this was basically our appetizer - Salmon pizza, clams with soup, a small salad, and lastly corn soup :)
Say hi to our main courses! Knowing me, the bf decided to share a dish with me and we ordered the Carbonara spaghetti. The younger bro ordered a well-done steak with his usual love of fries.
I've to say that every time we're here @Waraku, they never cease to amaze us. All the dishes were cooked to perfection that you practically see us gobbling down without much hesitation. And once again I've to give a double thumbs up for their perfectly baked salmon pizza. Even the cheese-to-crust ratio is too good to be true.
Anyways, after eating, we made our way to Bugis for the little bro to indulge in his shopping spree. As for me, I'm literally holding back all my shopping urges as I'll be heading overseas soon and I wouldn't want to spoil my appetite for that shopping spree! :) the shopping took quite a while and I finally understood le bf's pain of aching feet and sore ankles from walking for hours. But the shopping trip was still a huge success and Jojo was super satisfied with his purchases. (3 cheers for being such an amazing sistah!)
After shopping, we made our way back to Pasir Ris and before going home, I made little detour to my most favorite place when I was a child - the playground @ the park opposite the house. I would always accompany my mother for a slow job around the park as she would bring me to the little playground where I would spend hours playing there. It sure was memorable...
Reliving my childhood memories is definitely something I wouldn't mind doing every now and then :)
