Cousins Gathering | Oriole Cafe & Bar.

It is always a blessing to be able to have close cousins; cousins whom you grow up with still in contact and hanging out from time to time. We agreed to pay Oriole Café a visit. This was not my first time and I would say their food quality has improved since my last visit.

Of course, another reason why I visited was for the coffee. Apparently, their baristas were champion coffee makers. This I got to try.

 

 

Had the fish & chips and they didn't disappoint. Yums!

 

 

 

The really good café latte!

 

 

Overall, it was a good time spent, we all agreed the food was decent. Portions were pretty huge for the fish & chips (maybe it is just me haha) so you could actually share and then get something else to try between the two of you.

Cafe Hopping | Penny University

Went exploring at East Coast Road last week. This area wasn't my usual hunt because of the distance away from where I stay. The enthusiastic boy wanted Katong Laksa so I happily agreed to go since he was leading the way. I am not fantastic with directions so when he make suggestions like this, I have to say yes. I asked if he could lead me to Penny University for coffee after dinner and he willingly obliged too.

That is what I love about him. He doesn't enjoy café hopping like me but just because I enjoy it, he is most happy to join me on my coffee adventures. Blessed!

Overall, coffee was decent. The better half is a fussy drinker so if he give the thumbs up, that definitely counts as good feedback! They serve one of my favourite ice cream sandwiches too! We ordered them in different flavours. I really love my strawberry one. Was a little bummed that I forgot to check out their other desserts. I got too excited with the ice cream sandwich that I totally forgot about the other items they serve.

I will definitely be back that's for sure. Love the vintage feel and the little bits and pieces of retro furniture and items scattered around the café. Overall, its a great place to visit, worth the travel. Where to next you say? I am thinking The Fabulous Baker Boy or Toby's Estate.

Will be blogging about Oriole Café soon too.

Altered Frame | We are 5!

Celebrated 5 years of togetherness on 22 June this year! Time flies as the saying goes. We just can't believe we have been together this long and of course we are looking forward to marriage next year. Thankful to God for being our center, it has been a long journey of learning and compromising. Believe that as we work towards the future with one heart, all things will fall into its rightful place. Hopeful and expectant!

Couple tradition: He gets one handmade item from me for every special occasion. He loves to receive it and I love to create it. So win-win situation heh.

Thanks for coming by! This frame is sitting proudly on my better half's shelf now!(:

Mini Album | Malacca Trippin'

A simple and quick mini made a really long time ago but never had the chance for picture taking because it was given away to the other half! (:

Snippets of the mini, I will let the photos do the talking:
