PUN IN THE TITLE IF YOU GET IT. Anyway, this time it’s zombies. Or rather a promo for Warm Bodies! I read the book (yes it’s a book by Isaac Marion) and it’s quite sweet and full of hope. Not sure how the movie adaptation will be but it has high ratings on IMDB too.
I wanted to go to a Font exhibition (yes, I know, it sounds super arty and stuff like that) but it was closed. Instead, have a post about Nana’s Green Tea because we went to the shop TWICE in one day at Plaza Singapura. (Click this link for the Singapore branch.)
That’s Jo‘s BMO in between the matcha cream latte and azuki latte.
We went to the Public Garden flea market at the national museum. Since it was free and guess what. Free entry to the exhibits at the museum too! Woooo.
Mangafest 2013‘s events for the weekend was held at The Arts House and Kinokuniya at Ngee Ann City. The Arts House’s exhibit was from 10am to 8pm. I lurked outside, eating my Old Chang Kee porridge as I waited for my friends to arrive.
And good grief… It was Saturday morning and I saw lots of people going up to the second floor where the exhibition was held at the Gallery.
Technically we went to Beanstro on that 19th Jan after we went to the SG Handmade Movement. The branch we went to was the one at Ngee Ann City, the one with Takashimaya. Mind you, this is our experience with Beanstro for that day and it was awesome.
A few notes, Beanstro is the fancier version of The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. It’s got more food than their regular cafes. From the moment at this post, we only know that there’s one at Marina Bay Sands and just this one at Ngee Ann City. That’s it.
Also, wanted to put in the whole menu of Beanstro in this post but decided it was too much so heck that. You’ll get the price range idea with what we ordered cause we ordered quite a bit anyway!

Now, let’s get to it.
The library at Chinatown opened on the 31st of January 2013. We went there because we could. It’s at the top floor of Chinatown Point!
We went over to Jo’s place because her granny was making kueh baulu the traditional way. Yes, with coals and a charcoal stove thing as you can see above! Chinese New Year’s next month and thus, they’re baking kueh.
Fort Canning green. That’s where the first Handmade Movement Singapore would be held on the 19th January 2013.
It didn’t stop raining.
We had a break. Sometimes you need to have a mini break where you can eat pizza or burgers or candy stuff at someone’s house and play video games. That is what we did.
Also, I guess we really did eat a lot of kit kats from Japan! Strawberry, blueberry cheesecake, green tea and wasabi.
In other words, this is like a filler episode post.
This time the Adventure Crew wasn’t in Singapore. We had a trip to Kuala Lumpur for Comic Fiesta last weekend on 22 and 23 Dec! Technically we set off on 21st with Aeroline. It’s really fancy since they do have ‘in flight’ food (their tagline is: The Convenient Way to Fly).
It’s about a 5 hour bus ride and it was really that good. They even had in flight entertainment and ooh, I got hot chocolate too besides our meal.
