Horsy Day.

I felt missed horses so much and decided to visit horse city.

Shiu-chan accompany me and we Jalan jalan around horse city.
It was new findings that there is a new horse riding (or polo) club or facility just behind the horse city.

There we could see horses closely, but still better get permission to go into the stable...=(

From the horse city, we could walk and reached to Bukit Timah Suddle club!
Surprised!!

Thunder tea.

Long time did not have any Thunder Tea!!

I like its unique flavour and harb tea =)

Henderson Wave

It's like a kind of RPG....

View from Henderson wave towards Harbor front.
These skyscrapers are 'Reflections' condominiums.

Alkaff Mansion - 2.

Alkaff Mansion,
For Shiu-chan, it was first time visiting.
For me, since 9 years...


I can still recall like a yesterday,
When I came here for overseas attachment programme.
I had my first Singapore's D&D.

Those nice mosaic tiles, relaxing entrance area,
Nice gardens, and main building, fountains...Still remain same.


One thing, that time the lavatory was still old type,
pull and pour water from overhead water tank is now changed to modern style. haha =P 

Alkaff Mansion - 1.

Usually we going out during day time.
Today we went for jalan jalan and meal in the evening.

So that Shiu-chan won't be so sweat! =P




I brought him to secret place,
It's known as Malay restaurant previously and now known as Italian dining,
Alkaff Mansion.




After they close its doors for sometime, last year, December 2012, they opened its doors again.


We had pizza and pannacotta,
Pizza was thin crispy crust and load of mozzarella cheese.
Maybe I prefer more tomato sauces on it but Shiu-chan liked their pizza alot.

Pannacotta is  lemongrass flavour and both we enjoyed nice fusion of Italian and Asian =)

The place it self is very relaxing and hidden place.
It should be nice to go there for lazy brunch! =D

After watching some Lladro art pieces and Pure Arabian Horses on YouTube etc, I suddenly felt like drawing horse...



















Ahh....Miss horses alot....='(

Green Tea Roll.

Long long time never baked bread...
Until I forgot to add important ingredients of SALT!!!



I added green tea powder and the bread became a little bit bitter.

This time round, I used Hokkaido Wheat mix flour.
Which uses a few types of Hokkaido grown wheat flour such as Haruyo Koi, Kitano Kaori.
Very Very sad that due to no baking and recent terrible humidity, my favourite Haru Yutaka blend flour and Lys D'or and the other french bread flour were all spoiled...='((


Really very very very SAD!!!
