Meng Jit : 1 year older, 1 year wiser!

Back for an update on my bday! Plus a few good restaurants to recommend. (:

This year's celebration was pretty simple. Somehow as I grow older I'm very contented with simple celebrations. It's a great enough blessing to have my favourite people with me as I grow up.

First up, lunch at Ichiban with my family! We're mega fans of Japanese food, so we dine at Japanese restaurants for almost all important occasions hehe. My set meal below:

Teriyaki chicken which was well marinated!

Thick sashimi slices (I loveee)

Always a fan of toufu!

I ate my fill with this $15.90 set meal. VFM right? That's why I love Ichiban! It's my favourite place to go for casual and affordable Japanese food. (:

Guins brought me to a new cafe situated along Bali Lane for a bday treat!

Pretty macaroons

Flavoured Fizz drinks

Scrambled eggs set

If you like your scrambled eggs more milky, then you would enjoy this breakfast plate. I also liked that the toast was soft (cos normal bread was used I think) unlike the usual sourdough bread served with eggs at other cafes that is naturally tougher in texture.

Egg's Benedict set

Poached eggs were mediocre imo.

Yoghurt ice-cream over honey toast

The honey toast has gotta be my favourite item on their menu. The toast was surprisingly crispy despite looking otherwise. The combination of sweet, buttery crispy toast with yoghurt ice-cream was delightful! I would gladly have such a sweet treat anytime. (: And oh the ice-cream takes forever to melt; perfect for Instagram fanatics who snap a million pictures before they eat haha.

Thanks guins for the lovely day! <3

If you're looking for an affordable cafe in town, this is the place for you. Nothing above $15 on the menu! It's also rather quiet (cos it's new I guess) so it's great for studying or simply chilling with friends. For food, the standard is decent but still has room for improvement in terms of quality and variety.

Time spent with Jem on the actual day! He was very sweet to cook a spread for me. And also buy me a sandwich maker (which I wanted!) and my favourite flowers.
