Restaurant week: Zafferano

During the restaurant week (25 Oct - 2 Nov), we made a booking to have our lunch at Zafferano, which was located on level 43 of Ocean Financial Centre.

Very professional service staff and the food was delicious. But as expected, one bottle of mineral water cost $10++. Okay, a bit xian that we paid this price for water. Wonder if they serve free tap water?

The bread served was delicious and they refilled it for us when we finished the first serving. 
Bread is free! 

Carpaccio of Wagyu beef, portobello mushroom salad, parmesan cheese, mustard dressing.
The salad goes well with the cheese and beef. Delicious. 

Leek and potato veloute, rosemary bread croutons
It's a soup. That's about it. We didn't really like the taste of leek. 

Home made tagliatelle with jumbo prawns, marinated tomatoes with mint, lemon essence.
Prawns is huge and fresh. There's also bit size prawn meat in the pasta. The sauce is just tomato based sauce with prawn flavour, the mint and lemon taste was negligible. Overall, it was a delicious dish.

Slow cooked Iberico pork belly, cameralised red apple with thyme, berry sauce.
The meat was tender and the skin was crispy, eat it with the cameralised apple and the berry sauce will help to reduce the greasiness. However, we still felt it was too greasy if one person finished the whole plate.

Creme brulee, seasonal berries
The creme brulee was delicious but the strawberries was quite sour. Nice finale to the meal. 

After the dessert, the waitress asked if we would like to have tea or coffee, without mentioning that it was not included in the set menu. The way she asked gave us the idea that the tea/coffee was included in the set meal. Sadly, it was not, and we paid an additional $14++ for a cup of tea and a cup of coffee. We are totally upset about paying additional $24++ for drinks (mineral water + a cup of tea + a cup of coffee)! I would like to suggest that the waiter/waitress should at least inform that the tea or coffee was not part of the set meal as we would not have ordered if we knew about it.

The good thing about dining at Zafferano is taking a walk outside for a view of Singapore cityscape from level 43.

The Salon I Keep Returning to: Studio M KSL Hair Salon @ KSL City Mall

It's been a while since I crossed the straits to pamper myself at JB. Whenever I'm in JB and want to change my hairstyle or give my hair some well deserved treatment, Studio M is always the first salon that comes to my mind. I have visited Studio M @ KSL City Mall (previously known as Govin Hair) many times as I love the great service and friendly staff there. Price wise, it's definitely super value as you are getting top notch service and best quality products such as Mucota or Oway on your precious hair. As a person who always want good deals, I have researched before and hey, there's no way I can find that kind of price for treatments, perm, rebond or hair color using top quality products such as Mucota or Oway in Singapore! Look at my lifeless hair with the uneven hair color. It's time to go Studio M hair salon to pamper my hair and give it a new look! Studio M is located at ground floor of KSL City Mall, beside Sasa. My hair stylist was Ben. ...

Mucota Omega Rebonding at Focus Hairdressing

I initially wanted to try out volume rebonding at some Korean hair salon in Singapore but the price was really expensive, around $350 for my hair length and I was told that the effect was just like soft rebonding, except that it gives the hair more volume. For my hair length, the hairstylist usually will recommend me to perm the ends to have the romantic Korean feel. But I know I will be lazy to maintain the curls. So I dropped the idea.  I saw many good reviews online for mucota rebonding at Focus Hairdressing. It's located at Cuppage Plaza Level 1 which is just  5 mins walk from Somerset MRT. I have previously tried mucota hair treatment at Creme Hairdressing  (Chinatown Point outlet) and I really love the treatment effect. You can read about my mucota treatment experience at Creme Hairdressing . So i decided to try out Mucota rebonding. I originally planned to take the mucota dyna hair rebonding since it is the cheapest kind of mucota rebonding that Focus of...

Tokio Inkarami hair treatment experience at BumpRV

I had bleached my hair in Oct last year which caused my hair to be very dry and brittle. I dunno what's wrong with me, I damaged my hair further when I perm it in Mar this year. After the bleach and perm, my hair was very rough and it tangles when I comb. I urgently need some really good and effective treatment to save my hair! I researched online and saw people raving about Tokio Inkarami treatment. Through the app Jpassport, I saw some Japanese salon having 20% discount. I chose BumpRV based on the good reviews and the reasonable price. The Tokio Inkarami treatment was priced at $160, after 20% discount, it's only $130+ (inclusive of GST). I made an appointment immediately. My hair stylist was Konomi, although  her english was limited, she was polite and all smiley, which made my visit a pleasant one. Worried about communication? There's a receptionist who can help with the translation. When Konomi saw my hair, she knew my hair was badly damaged and assured me that ...
