Tippling Club @ Dempsey

It's been awhile since i had an enjoyable dining experience.

Even if it's just for desserts, Tippling club @ dempsey hill blew me away!

everytime an item is presented to you,

the friendly staff there would introduce the ingredients and inspirations behind it.

Much like a fine-dining concept.

but i've long forgotten most of it thks to my lousy memory!

anw, e white-ish liquid in the tube is actually potato.

interesting way to eat it.

this is not a dessert, it's curry.

the garnishing kinda killed it for me, think it's coriander or something =S

oh yes, i owe a big thank you to Eugene!

thanks to his connections there we got to try all of these for free =)

i asked for a recommendation to a sweet sweet alcoholic drink,

& they gave me apple pie.

haha! the packaging is so cool right?

& the best part is tt it is sweet. didnt feel cheated for once.

this is my FAVOURITE!

a dessert called dempsey hill.

the name says it all, it is inspired the the surroundings of dempsey hill.

i love the combi of the ingrdients used!

there's pandan and kaya & premium dark choc in it.

this is my version of exquisite taste =P

yoghurt & fruits? cant remember! hee.

but according to them this dish is actually very popular, ppl prefer it over 'dempsey hill'

WHY?!

this item totally got me listening.

whiskey coke.

i'm not kidding!

the white solid foam is actually whiskey placed in this special machine where all the moisture would be suck out to transform it to this state. AMAZING RIGHT!

& coke is the jello-like thingy in between of cos.

i'll like to have 10! imagine getting drunk with this!

white choc tablets <3

some sort of fizzy sweet i'll nv bear to spend my $ on, but cool exp.

here's the interior of the restaurant.

it is extremely cozy, go on a weekday to have the place all to urself.

there were a couple more choc desserts but i didnt manage to take photos.

i'm not too sure about the price range, but according to Eugene he said if we're gonna go for dinner u'll be forking out about $150 - $250 per person for a 10 course food tasting.

rough guage in price? we paid about $60 for the two desserts below.

trust me u'll b happy to part w your $ =P

Food tasting @ Empire State

Supposedly a food tasting session with the ZA Marketing Team at e pre-opening of Empire State @ Causeway point.

We were allowed to pick anything on the menu, unfortunately only Sam & I could make it down.

The rest of them were held up at the previous event. So our tiny stomach could only try the very few items below. =(

Clam chowder - thumbs up*

can nv go wrong.

Sam ordered this prawn base thingy.

errr.. i really dont fancy it cos the 'xin wei' was too strong for me.

but she calls it exquisite taste =/

decided to order a crab paste pasta.

quite a unique taste, havent tried anything like tt.

& the portion is crazy huge, could barely finish half.

+ if i didnt remember wrongly i found close to 8 shrimps in the pasta!

thumbs up for grp sharing!

Sam ordered Steak, likewise she couldnt finish it haha.

i guess it's partly bcoz we wanted to share the recommended dessert =)

Here it is!

Ice cream n brownie soaked in choc, SLURP!

& HERE'S THE UPCLOSE heehee...

wish we could try more side dishes but we baozhar alrdy! =(

Cle de peau Beaute 's Extra Rich Lipstick

Now that i've got more freetime on hand.. i'll spend more time w my loveblog =)

Might do some posts on the products i got while i'm with my previous job.

Here's the first:

Cle de peau Beaute 's Extra Rich Lipstick

The name says it all!

definitely e richest i've come across,

i'll say it's worth its $100+ price tag.

Those who dont know, CPB is pretty much a Tai-Tai brand with its STAR product -

the fabulous 'La Creme' retailing at S$800+!

I've seen the result of the la creme on a colleague suffering from eczema,

it works & tt's e product i'll be retaining my youth w when i'm 47.

Pls let me b rich enough to afford tt $_$

I kinda dab the pigmentation on my lower lip for the last photo, which explains the blotchiness.

Didnt know it'll show so clearly on the photo aft i upload it through my phone.

Picked up this tip from the makeup trainers:

Girls with thick lips can carry the intense red lips by dabbing on the color pigmentation instead of spreading it. it'll soften the intensity so we wont have tt swollen sausage lips.

Skyroom w Citybeat

Here's a post due long before i had my full-time HR job.

Was helping Cynthia out at her shop during my job hunt .

For your info, the original Skyroom is situated @ the entrance of Haji lane.

and they had their 2nd outlet at Clarke Quay Central level 1.

definitely more convenient IMO, so do check it out when you pass by.

I'm really amaze at how Cynthia can put all the different items together and create some sort of a signature style. it's not easy, this woman has talent.

Even Citybeat came down to run an episode on it, and it kept all of us really excited tt day.

Look at Pam & jane smiling from ear to ear LOL!
