Gorgeous views and tasty Korean food at Sarang, Korean for Love... Located at Orchard Central, 7th floor, it is quite the oasis in the heart of the city. I was there on a weekday afternoon, so Justin and I were the only guests.

Getting there was quite confusing as there were so many lifts, but where there is a will, there is a way!

A sampling of the menu...I have never tried Korean Tapas before, so it was quite an experience, Thank you Justin for the meal!

The rice with wheat wine was really tasty...Makgeolli impressed me so much I wanted to order a few more, but it was extremely alcoholic.. Or perhaps it's because I was there at 3pm and it was kind of too early for drinks.

I was still wondering what I drank, so I went to google... Here's the wiki definition!

Makgeolli, also known as "makkoli", "makoli" or "makuly (takju)", is an alcoholic beveragenative to Korea. It is made from a mixture of wheat and rice, which gives it a milky, off-white color, and sweetness.[1] It is made by fermenting a mixture of boiled rice, wheat and water, and is about 6–8% alcohol by volume. Most makgeolli contains rice these days. $5

Terrine of ginseng with chicken was quite unusual. I loved the delicate flavor of the red dates combined with the smooth chicken terrine and the single ginseng right in the middle gave it more "bite". For me, I like the taste of ginseng, so I ate the ginseng, gnawing on it to release its full flavor. $16

Even though you see whole cloves of garlic, it wasn't overpowering as I think the garlic must have been pre cooked before being added to the terrine. The garlic was sweet, reminiscent of baked or steamed garlic, but without the "skin".

Complimentary servings of Kimchi and a spicy unidentified dish was very welcome indeed. I loved the kimchi- it tasted slightly spicy with a lot of crunch and "juice".

Spicy chewy rice cake was really lovely, with a fantastic chewy texture. The sauce, though bright orange, wasn't overly spicy though I reached for my water quite a few times. It was a burst of flavor, with the sweetness of the vegetables still intact. $7

The fish cakes made the dish taste even better, as the saltiness balanced out the sweetness of the sauce beautifully.

My best friend Justin! He gave me a "start work" treat because I started writing for his blog, www.justinlee.sg

Whatever is beneath that beautiful cover must be tasty too, and it really was! Army Stew! With such a name, I had expected much less... I later found out it's what they used to serve to the US army stationed in Korea. That's why there's so much spam!

Tada! Army stew revealed! I was a little concerned that we couldn't finish everything, but we did, it was really really really yummy with the sweet well cooked vegetables and tasty, salty spam! Yumminess to the extreme, highly recommended! $18.80

Quite the experience, just that service staff were terribly inattentive though there were only two of us there. Water was not topped up and we had to wave quite vigorously before any one of the three staff talking at one corner responded. I will be back, for more $5 rice wine though!

I was walking and attempting to keep fit at Labrador Park when I chanced upon the beautiful Eco Cafe. Unfortunately, most of their desserts were sold out, and the main courses were not exactly what my Thai friends would enjoy, so when the staff suggested that we try Tamarind Hill instead, and helped us make a reservation as well, we were very surprised and happy with their service. I definitely want to try the food there someday!

Eco cafe was beautiful, but nothing prepared me for the sight of Tamarind Hill.

When we walked into the Restuarant, we were greeted by a lovely lady who explained that Eco Cafe was their second Restuarant in Singapore and Tamarind Hill is their first. They already have restaurants in a few countries, and they have plans to expand their concept to include beach villas and a spa as well.

Walking into the Restuarant, you will see the bar first, before the dining area, and the bar looked so lovely I wanted to sit and have a drink first... If only I wasn't so hungry!

Went to NTUC today, and saw chilled cooked food all nicely packed. The menu looked good, with different type of pasta dishes. Thought it would really be easy to just reheat and eat up if I was too lazy to head out and eat, so I bought one to test out first

Packaging was simple and it came with a fork! Yeah... No washing needed, everything is disposable!

I put it in the microwave for 90s as instructed and at exactly 45s, the smell of tasty tomato based pasta sauce started wafting out. My tummy grumbled and I nearly took it out of the oven... But I waited till the full 90s was over. If you are microwaving this, remember to peel back the plastic flap so that the steam does not buildup under the plastic - you might get a nasty steam burn.

Taking it out of the oven and peeling back the flap was easy, my only gripe is the little price of scotch tape that held the fork to the packaging...then again, I should have just peeled it off first instead of yanking the fork out before putting the yummy looking package in the oven. Look at how yummy it looks!

2 small slices of ham, four meatballs and some cheese (now melted) stared at me and I stared back with my camera.

Tasty! The spaghetti was done al dente and the sauce was flavorful. The tomato base mixed beautifully with the ham and meatballs, and I'm a happy girl! The chicken meatballs were slightly springy which was a little strange and bland, but the sauce did a great job of covering it. Would I buy it again or try the other packs? Yes I would! Tasty and easy to heat up... Now, if they had soup and dessert too...
