Chin Mee Chin Confectionery

Chin Mee Chin Confectionery was around 15 minutes walk away from Champion Hotel(where we were staying overnight at) located at 204 East Coast Road. 

It is just a simple old school breakfast stop with toast bread, coffee and puffs, tarts...

We arrived at around 10am on a friday morning, they only have approximately 10 tables inside and we waited for almost 40 minutes to be seated. Then we realize even the drinks takes some time to be served too despite there isn't really a lot of people :-(

Everything was ordered separately, they do not have any sets. Initially we thought eggs comes in pairs so we ordered 3 but ended up we were served only 3 eggs hahaha and the toasted bread too. The kaya butter toast was really good. They have egg tarts there too but i felt it wasn't that good compared to other stalls.

But still it was worth going for a try :-)

Sinpopo brand

Looking for cafes around Joo chiat as we're having a staycation around that area, made a reservation at Sinpopo brand located at 458 Joo chiat road. Actually no reservations is required if you're there on weekdays thou, but would be recommended to make a reservation if you're going on a weekend.

The service was overwhelming. The waitress came forward to pass us the menu and introduce us the recommended drinks and dishes :-) Initially we settled with a few starters then we were told that the Nasi lemak set for 2 that we ordered already consist of them (Sambal fishballs, roasted potatoes, luncheon crisps). Hence we changed it to the crab wantons ($8) and babi toast ($7).

We ordered the Sinpopo beef shortrib horfun too, it was served with crispy horfun rather than the normal kind. ($16)

Nasi Lemak for 2 pax ($25). The sides were the sambal chilli, rojak, sambal fishballs, roasted potatoes in curry, luncheon crisps, har jeong kai wings and chicken. Best of all, the rice was refillable for free.

Hello Kitty Theme Hotel In Singapore

This is actually like a gem in singapore because you wouldn't expect to be finding Hello kitty theme hotel in sg, while there are tons around the world. I was soooo excited when i happened to chance upon this Hello kitty theme hotel located in Singapore when i was looking for staycation for Shannon's sixth birthday surprise. 

I booked a month plus in advance and it was shockingly ALMOST FULLY BOOKED. It was unexpected as i couldnt find much reviews on it, and i assume it wasn't known yet. I managed to secure 26th/27th, thursday to friday which is six days in advance to Shannon's birthday. I paid a total of approx $145 inclusive of tax and gst through agoda.com.

And finally, THE DAYYYYY!!

Sent the princess to school as usual, didn't tell her anything about the staycation as it was meant to be a surprise :-) Only told her that she'd be going somewhere after school thus she only went school with a plastic bag instead of her usual bag pack.

Headed down to get her cake and blew balloons before she arrives.... We had dinner at Sinpopo brand (You can read it over another post, just click here). After dinner, we brought her up to the hotel and bluff her that we're there to find my friend....

Video when she entered the room. hahah She went screaming for sometime lol #tooexcited

The Hello kitty theme room had a small ribbon pasted on so we spotted it immediately hehe.

Once we entered. The hello kitty hangers, safebox, slippers.... Awwww....

The walk way, dressing table. Everything decorated so kitty-ish.

And.......... The bed!!!! Hahah i was happy that it was exact to what i saw online. Cleanliness level 9.5/10.

And lastly the toilet... Even the toilet paper is printed with hello kitty :-D 

So, where was this? :-)
