I didn't expect I will blog about this so the picture is not complete and pro like those food blogger. Just found this place when I were on the way to other cafe but ended up choosing this place because it looks more interesting. ^^
Environment:
Barista Counter (I think they are very clever to put the barista counter in front section so that the coffee smell can attract more customers)
Queue up to order.
The lighting and the presentation are killing me, I were so tempted to order every dessert! Luckily a lava chocolate cake stopped my hungry urge. The strawberries looked soooooo nice!!! Omg! *Crazy girl mode*
The burgers looked nice too but they looked they overfeeded by a lot of vege. OAO;;;;;;
What we order:
Burger ($9.50 each)
- The salmon and bacon inside the burger were too salty even the vege and bread couldn't cover it. I think I will order croissant which I figured it is one of the recommended food after I searched online later.
Drinks: Flat white ($5.50)
- I am not an expert but my friend this flat white is up to standard.
Dessert: Chocolate Lave Cake
I like the environment and the noise doesn't irritating even the place is quite packed. (We waited awhile but spotted few empty tables right away) They provide free flow of water but the glasses are a little dirty for me even though they had cleaned it. There are a lot of watermarks.
Direction:
Nearest MRT: Tiong Bahru MRT (Green NW line)
You need to take any of the bus in front of the mall and alight after one stop. Search for Tiong Bahru market and walk to the left when you are at Block 57. You will find it at the corner shop.
Start to have the feeling back to hunt cafe! I have long ditched this habit since I back from Korea. I always hide myself in the room and draw circles whole day and claimed myself busy and don't have time to draw. Hee.
To be honest, my friend and I didn't have any expectation to this cafe as it seems normal and the name is D'Good Cafe. Seems normal and typical name for... a cafe.

Environment: 1st floor (Cashier and order taking)

Our beanbags
We were sucked into these beanbags! We were so comfortable and we spent a whole day at this cafe! Here we like have our own private corner for us to slack around. ^^
The staffs seldom walk around so you won't feel like they laser-eyed you for more orders (Am I the only one who think of this is very an important point?)
Balcony:

Win Points:
Provide wifi (this is a rare sight, believe me)
Provide a looooooot plug points! (this is even a rare sight too, believe me)

Oh! They got an elevator from 2nd to 3rd floor! Even though the speed is... ahem ahem.. XD

What we order:
Mocha double shot at $6.90. Quite sour from my POV. My friend guessed they used Arabica coffee beans for it.

When you walk out of the exit and you will see a Starbucks at the shop-lots. Walk along the shop-lots at your right and you will see the cafe entrance to upstairs cafe.

Travel from place A to place B in Singapore is really convenient. Majority people using subway as transport in Singapore. (Me too!) I use subway when I go to work and back from work daily. Subway is kinda good for me. *because I weak at driving ><~*
Usually I just plug my earphone on in subway and listen to music. (music lover (?))
Sometimes in subway there are many people, especially during after working peak hours. Don't really bother to sit because it's kinda difficult to fit a seat. (no luck)
BUT!!!!
There's a thing I'm bother in subway...
is...
the ARMPIT attack!!!
I am kinda sensitive and hope I can have the superpower to unblock my nose anytime I can choose. HA. Usually got towered by some tall people and their hands lift up beside me. ==!!!
I have no idea why the bug always appear when I want to enjoy my own little sweet time.
I am ok with it to fly around... just as long it does not flies around aimlessly and start knocking all the furniture in my living room.
Nightmare occur when it hit with the moving ceiling fan and you will never know the next second the bug will be on top of your head...*shudder*
Buggy, shoo shoo!!!
P/s: Sorry for the loooooooong un-updated behaviour. Been busy study and prepare something. I will start working next month (first job!) but I will try my very best to update regularly (once a week or fortnight). Please be patient ya...
This post should be upload loooooooong time ago. but... I am _ _ _ _. (fill in the blank). XD 20th March 2013
Such a colourful page... This is to disguise the fact that I gained my weight since I come to Korea. I had gained 2.5kg!!! There is a big electric weight scale below my dormitory and every girl who is free will use it. *sigh* I think I should drink water only from now on. My friends also told me that they had gained weight (the more the better, HA... I am a petty person :P) At least I am not alone but my friend had sore throat and suddenly her weight dropped back to her normal weight. ==
My lecturer did a surprise activity in class. He told us to write Korean essay in 5 minutes and later he will select some students to read out his/her article. My mind blank for a minute and tried to remember more vocabularies to write and grammar to complete it.
Sidenote: The korean classes is meant for level 4 students and I passed level 1 and should be palced in level 2 or 3 class according to their systems but there were no other students like me so they only had level 1 OR level 4 available.
I kept on thinking that I might not be selected so easily since I have no "toto lottery luck winning" life (solely based on own stupid assumptions)... My lecturer told everyone to name himself/herself in "1,2,3,4,5" individually and I am the "3" group. He wanted to select 1 but later he suddenly changed his mind and asked 3 group to present... Never I thought the number 3 will caused such adrenaline rush to me.
O-O <-- My shitty expression at that time
I think I should go and buy my lottery at that time.
You know? Having problem in writing Korean is my major problem (I turned all the grammars upside down) and reading it in a fluent way is my biggest obstacle. So... I read like a retarded kid by stuttering all the words and the intonations are so weird. When I finished, he calmly said "Good job".
O-O <--Again my shitty expression at how dishonest my lecturer was.
Well, at least he is so kind enough to console me (instead kick me out of this class) so I continue to tebal muka (shamelessly) to stay. Heee...
28th March 2013
I had a "friend-introduce-friends" situation today and I am worried how deadly pan I will be because I warmed up slowly with new friends. Luckily we got closer faster than I thought I would be by eating together. Food, world best enemy and buddy to me. <-slogan?
Big surprise: How bad I am in games. Seriously. I basically lost in every games they introduced to me and I lost every of them. Shitty luck. We went to a game cafe after eating and we paid for 1,500 per person for 1 hour and were free to play any of the board games.
Halli Galli: Kinda like "hear attack" game in Malaysia but you need to keep your mind straight by counting all the fruits available on the table. Sounds easy but my stoned hand always react slow.
Rules here.
Cost: 19,000 won (4-5 persons play)
24,000 won (5-6 persons)
Around RM60++
Regretted for not buying it because it was quite expensive to me at that time. Pfft...
Blokus: I sucked in this game too. *sigh* I played this without much strategy and end up losing.
Quite a static game.
How to play:
Tumblin Monkeys
Rules: The 'tree' has five levels. Six sticks (two of each colour) are threaded through holes around the side of each level. The monkeys are tipped in the top of the tree so that they are suspended by the criss-crossing sticks. Players take it in turns to roll the dice and remove a stick of the corresponding colour from the highest level that still has a stick of that colour. If a player makes a monkey fall out, they get to keep it. If there are no sticks left of the right colour, the player doesn't have to remove a stick that turn.
We later changed to arcade game center to play other games. This was how I got surprised by quiet friend! We played an arcade game where it looked more like "The Hardest Game 2"game and she is so incredible that she passed and win all the mini games in it! She was a little quiet during the gathering because her English is lacking but I totally amazed by her when her hands touched all the buttons like a pro!!! Suddenly she had a spotlight above her head when she played games. (Hallucination of a hand-retarded girl)
