Mrupupup went for a nice food session at SET located in POMO Mall at 1 Selegie Road #02-01 (next to TCC outlet). SET recently opened in August 2014 and the owners were formerly from TAO's eating place formerly located at POMO also. SET restaurant offers contemporary cuisine, and comes in set lunch and set dinner menu. Prices range from around $28.80++ for 5 course and $38.80++ for 6 course meal. Pretty good value for the 6 course set meal which came with chef starter dish, side dish, soup, cold dish, one main course and dessert. You have a choice of 3 to 5 items for main course, soup and dessert sections. Mrupupup had Chef Starter (which change regularly) of foie gras with red wine (pretty good!), cold dish of smoked duck, tomato caprese, Huai San Carpaccio (a kind of Chinese Yam), Salmon Gravlax. SET created fusion of Chinese and Western style to come up with the interesting cold dishes. Mrupu...

The food was very well prepared and yummy! Thanks to Chef!   Mrupupup tried the avocado tempura (awesome dish!), momotaro tomato salad (expensive Japanese yummy tomato  with fresh crabmeat), ch...

Mrupupup went to the Canton Paradise for a late Chinese food dinner. Well, since it was a late dinner (around 8.30pm) at Canton Paradise located at Basement 1 of Star Vista Mall (1 Vista Exchange Green #B1-45), Mrupupup ordered a few yummy dishes. Mrupupup had the awesome goodness of the egg yolk 'liu sa' bun with its famously ooosshing yellow filling coming out of the bun. The yummy egg yolk taste with the hot bun was a perfect match. Mrupupup also ordered the prawn fritters in a basket which was yummy fried food. When one visits the Canton Paradise, you need to order their nice noodles. Mrupupup had the yummy thin noodles in a soup and came with juicy pork slices (roasted pork!). The combination of roasted pork and the noodles was delicious! Mrupupup was totally satisfied with the meal. The meals at Canton Paradise were yummy and costs were reasonable (range from $4 for small dishes and about $8 for the noodles). The place also sells porridge and various t...

Ok, Mrupupup says that one of the top sunset spot in Singapore is at the coastline along the Marina Bay field area next to the new Singapore Cruise Centre. The sunset was awesome with the backdrop of the cranes, containers from the seaport and the stunning business district skyline. Mrupupup was there to see the sun set slowly during the golden hour. Check out the photo below.

Mcdonald's Grilled Chicken McWrap food Eent event was held at Bishan Park branch, Mrupupup loved this branch because of its tranquil location in Bishan Park. The event started with an explanation of the new "500 Calorie" menu that the McWrap will be on.  Mrupupup felt very slim after the speech.  After the introduction, we had a demonstration of how the Mcwraps were made by Mcdonald's staff. After the demonstration, we were served a cup of corn keeping in line with the low calorie menu theme. However, they also served Mrupupup a Coke drink, which was great since a cup of corn eaten alone would be quite boring food. After our appetizers, the wraps arrived.  We were only offered the Grilled Chicken version and not the Spicy (Fried) Chicken variant. The vegetables consisted of whole leaf lettuce, tomato, cabbage & carrot but surprisingly onion was left out. Mrupupup felt that the Mcwrap was good because it...

Alive Museum is Singapore’s latest fun destination. Alive Museum is for all ages, especially fun for kids. Mrupupup recently visited the Alive Museum which help to present the concept of art into entertainment. The Alive Museum covers over 10,000 square feet with more than 80 artworks brought vibrantly alive with 3D painting, shading and drawing techniques that create visual illusions. Visitors will not only be able to experience magical ideas in reality by touching and watching objects, they will be part of the masterpiece, especially the Marilyn Monroe piece. So no need to go Jeju Island (in South Korea) to experience the Alive Museum. Mrupupup had been to the Jeju's outlet of Alive Museum before felt it was similar to the Alive Museum in Suntec City Mall. Mrupupup's experience of Alive Museum was fun and interesting. Mrupupup loved the ET movie art piece, Marilyn Monroe interactive art piece, Nelson Mendela 'jumping' art an...
