Poodle Cafe at Serangoon


This poodle cafe is located at the heartlands of Serangoon. I got here by car~
Address: 1G Yio Chu Kang Road S545513
Website: https://www.facebook.com/thepoodlecafe

I decided to come to this place one weekend just for fun. Brought my parents along also!
Bookings are recommended as there are not many tables here.
Tel: 62820809

Honestly the environment is cosy but I didn't make a booking, so I was made to go upstairs when all the dogs were downstairs :< So I kept abandoning my stuff and walked down to try and interact with the doggies.

As you can see, the interior is a pink princess theme haha :]


This little boy always ran back into the counter area to hide!



This was the cutest pic! The poodle in clothes actually belonged to another customer who brought him along. That big fluffy guy is a chow chow and poodle mix! So cute :DD

The drinks here were okay. I saw some people eating food and it looked... okay too!
Spent only about 40 minutes here as my dad wanted to go and was bored, but I really liked all the poodles here haha! :D

Maybe I'll see them again~

Overall, this cafe has a cosy environment with cute poodles. While the princess theme was cute, the food and drinks were so-so. Would visit again, just to see the dogs again haha :D

Cat Cafe Singapore: Neko no Niwa

I have always longed for the opportunity to visit a cat cafe ~ and there's one by the Singapore river haha :)

To get to this place, you have to take the MRT to Raffles City and head to exit G

After getting out of this exit, head right towards the river. Stop near the river, turn left and walk straight, pass a building until you start to see shop houses on your left.





Look out for this sign



And then walk up the stairs!


You'll then see the shop entrance :)


Their official website is http://www.catcafe.com.sg/
The address is 54A Boat Quay

I highly recommend making a booking once you arrive in Singapore, as the cafe can get quite crowded and they will refuse customers if there are too many people in the cafe! Call them t (65) 6536 5319



This is how the interior looks like! If you want more pictures, check out their instagram page @nekononiwa :D

My friend and I stayed here for just an hour, which cost us $12 each.

The fees are time based
1st hour : $12
Next 0.5 hour: $5
3 Hour special: $24
Whole Day Special: $32

I personally found the 1 hour passed by quite quickly.
The best time to come is either in the morning or late evening after 6pm.
I came from 4.50pm to 5.50pm and majority of the cats were busy having a cat nap ><




Although... there was one cat who took a keen interest in sitting in my bag xD



I give this place two thumbs up! Service crew are friendly and will chat with you about the cats, whom I can tell they also love a lot. There are quite a number of cats and they have the most beautiful fur :D

I guess what I appreciate most about all these cats is the fact that they are all adopted! Now some of them fat fat so cute hahaha

Will definitely hope to visit this place again soon~

Food Courts at the City Series: #1 Pontian Wanton Noodles at Orchard Cineleisure

If you are staying near the orchard area and wish to try our local food without heading too far away from the city centre, don't fret! I am now here to help :D

I present to you.... The first entry of the "Food Courts at the City" Series.
I decided on this series with the hope that I can help to identify food places around Orchard that are value for money and really up to standard of what local food should taste like!

So without further ado...
Have a look at this!


Oooooh! Nom nom nom
It's 1am now as I type this and I'm hungry. Gah!
Despite how the noodles look.... these are really yummy.
On a scale of 1 to 10.... this comes in at a 8.5! 

Opinion
What I really like about this place is how it is not so crowded and that the food is relatively affordable (though if you need more food you should order a bigger portion!). Ah and the fact I can grab as much chilli and mayonnaise I want to accompany my meal!
This set cost me $4 if I am not wrong, my memory fails me at this hour. 

The proportion of veggies to char siew (the reddish meat) to wanton (dumpling) to noodle is just right. And the sauce mmmm yum yum! :D 

For a quick, affordable and yummy meal within Orchard itself, this is really a fantastic option :)

Directions
To get here, you need to walk to Orchard Cineleisure, which is located behind Mandarin Gallery, which is sandwiched between Takashimaya and the H&M.

After you enter the building you would see this

And then as you go down the escalator you would see a big food court like this (Have not tried all the food in this food court... but generally on average food only)

Turn right and walk a very short distance to the "Graffiti Cafe"!



This marks the end of the very first FCC post! I hope this is helpful, and stay tuned for even more places in Orchard that serve yummy local food!
