Over recess week

Cafe: Wheeler's Yard and Waffle Slayer

Wheeler's Yard has been on my to-go-cafes list for a long, long time. Instragrammers have been flooding my feed with its iconic blue doors. From the outside, it completely blends in with the many other neighbouring warehouses. I almost walked by it without knowing! But the magic begins when you stepped into the cafe.

This cafe has a HUGE open area. It makes me so happy because you get the feeling that you can just run free. I am sick of cramped little cafes. As quaint as they are, i dont want to be elbowed and kneed by strangers. Wheeler's Yard even has an air-conditioned area if Singapore's weather is too hot for you to take. We managed to get the sofa seats and coupled with the homely atmosphere and the huge amount of space, it is literally so comfortable that we refused to move on to our location until hours later. Located right at the middle of HDB flats and warehouses, it is a perfect getaway from the outside world. I feel disenchanted when i walked out of Wheeler's Yard :(

Anyway, i think the menu is only a meh. You've got your standard burgers, coffees, all-day breakfast (which the reviews were not very appealing). There is nothing special that would make me want to come back for their food (their fries are pretty good though). But their ambience? Now, that's a different thing.



Headed to Waffle Slayer next. They are known for having really interesting waffles.

1. Banana Brulee Buttermilk Waffle with Walnut Crunch & Vanilla Ice Cream
2. Squid Ink Waffles with Blueberry Ice Cream (it was the special of the day)

I would say that the waffles itself are pretty normal. Yes, even the squid ink doesnt taste much different from a standard waffle. However, i really enjoyed the way they complimented and arranged their waffles with the toppings, both aesthetic and taste wise.

Not bad, i would say.


I'm really glad that Shaf is back. Its been so long since ive talked to her. Sure, we have whatsapp and stuff but i dont connect well using technological communication. I feel detached from the person im talking to and it just does not work for me. The three of us took many pretty photos together and we had so much fun playing charades. It was a Sunday well-spent.

Have a good Monday ahead!

Avacado, Ostrich and Waterfall.

Avacado spaghetti was sooooo delicious. I need more avacado related food in my life!

Maggie Moo has really nice ice cream (Y)

My father planned a weekend getaway to Malaysia. I think i only told 3 people about it. I always find it weird to tell my friends stuff especially when it doesnt affect them. I think the 3 years of my poly life has made me more of a private person more than anything. I still go out with friends and i have fun with them but i dont talk much about my feelings or what's going on in my life. In fact, i am more "open" in my blog than amongst my friends haha.

I was more interested in the animals than the fruits although it was a fruit farm tour.

It looks pixelated because my sister took it from really far away. I was the only one in my family who took off my shoes and waddled around the waterfall. I really wanted to swim because it was so freaking hot and the water was so cooling. The view was amazing (the pictures do no justice because it shows only part of the waterfall. The top was beautiful) - i just want to relax in the waters. But nope, we didnt have extra clothes so we couldnt swim unlike everyone else. I could only waddle but that's better than nothing. I mean, hey, the entrance fee was paid so i might as well enjoy myself!

It was a trip filled with long journeys and a lot of yelling at each other - mainly me and my mother. Definitely inherited the loud voice from my mom whereas my sister and my father are quiet as a mouse. I think my family should not have family trips too often. My father, sister and i are alright because we are easy going people but my mom... OH MY GOODNESS. Every single time we go on holiday, her bad traits are magnified a millionfold and i just want to pull my hair out. 

I AM FREEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Just some photos from the past 2 weeks. Looking at the photos, i realised how much i spent on food. No wonder i've grown fatter ): Will exercise now that internship is over. And perhaps i will go back to tumblr? Work has totally cured my tumblr addiction man. I only found out that tumblr changed its interface 2 weeks ago, which i totally hate >:(

Still. Internship is over. NOTHING CAN BRING ME DOWN!!! I can finally sleep in peace without worrying that my alarm will disrupt my sleep 5 minutes later.

Ah joyful days, here i come :')
