Hubby was suppose to enjoy the shopping with me but he was not well and decided to give it a miss to rest at home. Therefore I went ahead to meet Derrick, Vicki, Charlene and Zhihao for lunch at Dulcet & Studio, a new concept by Tampopo group.

I had their signature cake because we had less than 30min left for lunch and I wasn't really hungry. The cake was less sweet, fluffy sponge sandwich in light fragrant cream with fresh fruit. I Love It!!

Thank you Charlene, you know why. (Photo credit to Charlene)

The Flip Flop Shop #01-K7
IMG_2312edit1
Around the atrium there is a retailer of casual apparel and footwear principally targeting all men and women who love rugged and casual with a touch of vintage inspired style.

There is also a Meidi-Ya Food & Kitchenware Fair at the atrium.

One of my favourite fashion shop is LALU #01-14&21/22

Inspired by the rustic mood of the 80s, LALU aspire to reinstate its nostalgia memoirs through its interior décor presentation and wide offerings of fashion collections, fashion accessories and interior enhancement accents.

The fashion accessories collections work to compliment the fashion collections with a wide array of varieties ranging from bags, sunglasses, watches, necklaces, shoes to hats, rings and earrings.

The dress really look good on Charlene, no?

The interior enhancement selection includes home accents such as photo frames, flowers & vases, wall paintings, display figurines, laundry baskets, wind chimes, stationeries and candle stands.

I love the Meidi-Ya Supermarket #B1-31/50
IMG_2440edit1

They have a wide variety of fresh food imported directly from Japan. You can even find fresh bento, Singapore's local products, as well as other imported products.

Before we know, it was dinner time! We wanted to dine at Shabu No Koya to try their Black Angus Beef Rib Eye Shabu-Shabu Set, unfortunately there are no table seat for us. Then we went to try Tampopo, the manager told us he will give us a table after the next guest, even after waiting for 20mins we still get the same answer. It was until we told him we manage to get a table else where, he then told us we have to wait another 15min to dine in otherwise its too bad. So we move on to Okinawan Diner Nirai Kanai.

All the set meal are accompanied with Cold Tufu and Pickles

Cubic Beef Steak @ $18.70
IMG_2521edit1
The beef was tender but hard to chew as there veins inside the meat. The ginger sauce was yummy, go really well with the steak. The cold tufu has a unique texture, not the usual soft type.

Zhihao had the Pork-Belly with Kimchi Set @ $15.30
IMG_2517edit1

Charlene and Vicki had Simmered Pork-Belly Set @ $17.00
IMG_2522edit1
This was highly raved by all of us and we highly recommend you to try! The sauce was packed with favours, the meat was so tender that it can melt in your mouth!

Derrick had Simmered Pork-Knuckle Set @ $17.00
