2nd Wedding Anniversary Celebration Part 3

2nd Wedding Anniversary Celebration Part 3 - Dinner @ Skyve

Sorry for posting this up late.....

Anyway, I had won a $50 dining voucher for Skyve last month and I tot I should utilized the voucher for a special night out with Mr Wonderful to celebrate our anniversary.

So after all the photo taking, it was still drizzling outside. But since we were already already dressed and out of our room, we decided to make our way to Skyve instead of going for a walk. It was still early for our reservation as I made it at 8pm, so I call up the restaurant to inform them then we re turning up early for dinner. Mr Wonderful said we should take a cab there, but being out at Bugis in the evening, getting a cab is simply out.

We walk abit along the shop houses and ran a bit too out in the rain. Luckily the MRT station wasn't too far away and before we know it, we had reached the station. Skyve is located at Newton, which is also the nearest MRT Station. While on the train, I googled for the direction to Skyve.

After we reach Newton, Mr Wonderful lead the way, following the directions on the phone. We reach after a short 15mins walk.

Skyve Elementry Bar & Bistro

Here's the outdoor siting area.

It was a Monday night, so it was pretty quiet.

The restaurant was quite empty too.

Place mat on the table.

After we placed our order, the server came and set the table.

I am not an alcohol drinker, so no wine or beer for me...

I had cider instead...

Kopparberg Strawberry ($15)

I love it so much, very refreshing, full of strawberry taste...

Gonna check out Isetan or Market Place to see if they carried this...

Bread was served.

Here's our appetizer, Sous Vide Egg & Spaghettini ($18).

Iberico ham with soft poached egg and spaghettini.

It is a bit too oily because of the pesto salsa but very delicious. I love the poach egg...

Selfie time before our min course arrived.

The restaurant was still empty, with only our table at 7:30pm.

More selfie.... ;)

Finally our main courses arrived.....

I had this, Sous Vide Pork ($36).

You know what?

The pork is braised in ROOTBEER & spices, very interesting...

The crispy thingy on top of the pork is the skin. It is super crispy and delicious.

I know that it's unhealthy but indulge once in a while is acceptable right.... ;)

Anyway, the meat is very soft and I like the sauce that comes with it....

Mr Wonderful had this, the Polenta Mushroom Stack ($34).

There's polenta cake, grilled portobello, and lots of other veggies....

A very healthy dish.... Hahhhaa....

After main courses, it's time for dessert....

This is called Snicker Bar ($12).

I love the combination of the bananas, peanut better, chocolate and the vanilla gelato.

The food is good and so is the ambiance...

We took our last selfie at the restaurant before we left.

It was still drizzling lightly at about 9pm. But we walk slowly in the rain to the MRT Station and made our way back to the hotel.

It's time for us to enjoy our jacuzzi...

Reviews: Orbis Aqua Peeling Gel

I've never been a fan of peeling gel. I've tried a few brands before, but somehow, I don't think that it works. It's not that it doesn't clear the dead skin, but rather, I can use the peeling gel continuously 3 times on the same place and still, there are lots of dead skin. So it's either the peeling gel doesn't work or I've got too much dead skin.... I got this sample months back when I shopped at the Pop-Up store at Ion. I tot I should try this out since I've been enjoying some of their products. It's a clear gel, turns watery upon application. I like the fact that the dead skins clumps together instead of the usual when they will drop everywhere in the bathroom. I did a second 'test' right after the first usage on the same area. Guess what? Orbis Aqua Peeling Gel is really up to my expectations.... The first application had removed quite a bit of the dead skin on my hands, and during th...

Mummy And Baby: Hospital Checklist

It is never too early to prepare your bags for delivery. You wouldn't want to run around the house packing your bag after your water bag burst. It is good to make sure your hospital bag is ready at least 2 weeks before your EDD, or even earlier. And it must be place somewhere where it is easy to access in case of emergency. Make sure your family members, siblings and husband know where the bag is, so in case you really forgot, they can help you to bring over to the hospital. So what should we pack in the bag? I will list them out in 4 different parts. 1. Documentation For Admission: 1. Mother's IC 2. Admission Form For Baby's Birth Registration 1. Mother's IC 2. Father's IC 3. Marriage Certificate Do check with your hospital for the required documents. 2. Mummy 1. Mobile phone & charger - Keep your family members updated of your situation.
