I Hate Assignment!

Hello,

I am back to blogging again! Funny, after I revived my blog last week. I have friends suddenly asking me if I am still blogging, one of them asked me if I deleted my blog. But no, I did not delete my blog but I changed my URL to www.dumbellz.blogspot.com. No longer using dumb-dumb-dumbellz.blogspot.com haha.

Anyway, I am doing my assignment now while waiting for my meeting with Ultimate Projects later at 7pm. Found out about CHAT over at Scape where you can sit around to chill and relax. There is even power point and free wifi so it's very good for students if they want to do their assignments etc.

I am just taking a break from my assignment. So I thought maybe I can just blog.

I really hate assignment you know...

Okay, bye.

Five & Dime, Eat Play Love Cafe

Hi,

My name is Daniel and I am still a blogger because I still owns a blog. It is just that I have no time and sometimes too lazy to blog.

Anyway, today I will be blogging about two restaurant/cafe that I went last Saturday with my secondary school friends for my advance birthday celebration.

You know, I always want to discover interesting and nice cafes/restaurants that offers good food (and affordable). To be honest, there are a lot of hidden gems in Singapore!

We had brunch over at Five & Dime. It is a cozy place which located at River Valley Road.


I want to recommend you all to try their Mentaiko Pasta! It is a must try! It is so delicious! But sadly, the portion is too small (or maybe it's just me...) because I finished it very fast.



I would also recommend you all to try their hotcakes. Not a fan of hotcak myself but I have to admit that they are very thick. Sorry, I am to lazy to insert the picture here but please trust me.

After the heavy brunch (Ok, this is what they claimed! Because I am actually still hungry.) We went to walk around at Scape and Takashimaya. Chill over at Macha House at Orchard Central before we proceed to Bugis for our dinner at Eat Play Love Cafe.

Some photos taken at Macha House.





OKAY! HERE COME THE MAIN PURPOSE OF THIS POST!

I want to share with you all this cafe which I chanced upon on 8Days Magazine as you know right, after my friends and I shared photos taken over there and upload on our social media platform, a lot of our friends asked us where is this place!

It's called Eat Play Love Cafe which located at 28 Aliwal Street #01-07 Aliwal Arts Centre Singapore, Singapore 199918. I was looking up for places so I just randomly choose this cafe that was recommended by the magazine, google information about it and when I went over to their Facebook Page.


I totally in love with the colour of the cafe and the decorations. They even have this Art & Craft corner which you can pay a price to do some handicraft.








It was crowded when we visit since it's on a weekend. I do see Muslim friends dining here so we thought it must be halal certified but few days back, I saw on their Facebook Page that they are not Halal Certified.

The place just reminds me of my childhood with all those old time snacks and sweets. The decorations are very vintage and give you this kampong feel, like the cup they served you are those old metal cups but somehow I think it diluted your water and give the metal kind of taste which is weird.

Next, the food there are very cheap! I ordered Tom Yum Seafood Noodle and it's only $8.50!!!


I think I will visit them again as I want to try their waffles! All right, let me end this post with some photos taken that day. Thank you my friends for the celebrations!
