I Wish You Hic’Cups!

January 24th, 2013 by sixpegs

It has been a fulfilling week, running errands and having sleepless nights busy with work.
I know I sound a little sadistic saying that. I’m crazy like that.
A and I met up with a programmer to discuss how we can improve The Tiramisu Hero‘s website.
Wish things could happen more quickly! I want a prettier website for our tiramisu! Heh.

It was dressed down Monday but I always loved the whole long tee + leggings getup.
C-O-M-F-Y-!
Sorry ah. Showed you a bit of my thunder thighs in the picture below. Hahahaha!

It was QQ’s birthday so we hopped down to Loof to meet the birthday girl.
She looks not a day older than 22, doesn’t she?
Can’t believe she is already xx! (女人的年龄是秘密)

A looks fucking chio here. LOL!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY QQ!

A and I woke up bright and early the following day because it’s a BIG day for The Tiramisu Hero!
It is the first day Sir Antonio move into hic’Cup at 100am mall at Amara Hotel!

This is Sir Antonio in his draw-me-like-one-of-your-french-girls pose. Hahaha!

hic’Cup is a concept cafe where they serve both sweet and savoury crepes, as well as a whole range of interesting drinks.
Don’t expect it to be the typical coffee-or-tea kind of cafe!
I love their Asian Soup, which is better known as Cheng Tng to most of us.
I must make it a point to try their other fruity mixes the next time I’m there too! AND THE CREPES TOO!

They serve their drinks in jars like that. So cute right?

It’s near one of the main entrances of the mall so it’s really quite hard to miss!

SAM_0445
SAM_0446

The two mascots are really cute too! Sir Antonio’s new friends! Heh!

SAM_0451

That’s us! Hahahaha. Small but mighty! :p

SAM_0454

We’ll be serving our bestseller MommaHero here!

SAM_0433

On top of that, this will also be the only distributor so far carrying our MiniHero cupcakes!
Stenciling service will also be made available here at hic’Cup!

If you are clueless about what I’m yakking on and on about,
The Tiramisu Hero is a tiramisu specialty store A and I started together some 5 months back.
We operate online and currently we have 2 distributors.
Here are their locations. (Please pardon me for the advert haha!)

I also brought A to Shunji Matsuo @ 313 to get our hair trimmed.
My hair is getting so thick at the top and is in urgent need of some loving from my stylist Caely.
I decided to just get a quick trim.
Wanna keep my hair long (by the way, I’ve been saying I wanna keep my hair long since I was 18) so wanna try to stop cutting so much.
Hee!

And yay! The fringe is much lighter now. Phew!

Oh yes. I brought my boots out for another walk too.
They are from Steve Madden as I’ve previously mentioned.
There’s a sale going on now! Time to shop! :B

I also love my new top from Runway Bandits!
Maybe you can’t see it clearly from the pictures here but it’s this gorgeous white sleeveless vest.
Check out their website for more designs! They don’t get 17k LIKES on Facebook for no reason ok!
Special thanks to Swee for throwing in the scarf too! LOVE IT!
I made a turban with that! Hahahaha.
By the way, let me know if you wanna know how to do the turban (or other designs you can do with a scarf)
and I’d be glad to do a tutorial on it!

A has been going on and on about Kings of Convenience since I met her,
so glad I’ll finally be able to catch them live (with A!) real soon!
Please let the weather be nice and cool this Saturday!!

“SOMEBODY THAT I USED TO KNOW~~~~”
Kthxbye!

This week has been a rather busy one and I apologize for my week-long disappearance.
A’s granny was not well and was admitted into the hospital.
Hope she gets better soon.
The visit to the hospital reminds me a lot of the times when I visited my own granny in the hospital.
I don’t really like that place.

My Mom is overseas in China & that means that I’ll have to look after Maliboo 24/7 throughout the week.
That also means that Boo has been spending a lot of time with the three cats in A’s bedroom. Haha!
So to reward her and let her feel slightly better about life (lol), we brought her to a dog cafe.

Happy Daze is located in Serangoon, they not only serve drinks and bar grub,
there is also a menu for the little furkids!
And the really nice part is, even if you didn’t order anything for your dogs,
they will also readily bring out a doggie bowl so that the doggies can get their supply of fresh water!

Happy Daze Cafe & Bistro
11 Maju Avenue
Open everyday from 3pm to 1am

This is not exactly the perfect place to go to for food though.
But if you’re looking for an unpretentious and laid back place to hang out with friends,
then try this place out.
Nice place for a midweek beer too!

IMG_2610

Boo had her meatballs fix and I had my beer fix.
As for A, she is driving so it was non-alcoholic Earl Grey float for her. :p

These are the meatballs I ordered for Boo!
They come in chicken or beef flavour and I ordered the latter because chicken is not very good for her skin.
They do serve pasta for dogs too! Interesting. Heh!

IMG_2768

IMG_2769

On the way back home, we drove with the top down and Boo had too much wind in her face.
HAHAHA.
This following picture I am going to show you is total epic.
Note: This shot is taken at 105km/h

Sorry it’s so blur! :x

IMG_2672

And Boo had to face the cats after the ride. Hahaha!
She just got “STUNNED” written all over her face.

IMG_2770

Because it’s a sleepover, A gave Boo a nice hoodie to wear to sleep.
Boo looks like she’s out at some chalet or something. Freaking adorable!

IMG_2771

IMG_2772

IMG_2773

I hope she had a good day out!

A and I have been stuffing our faces too.
I want to bring your attention to this awesome pasta she made me.
I seriously think this is the BEST pasta I’ve ever had – better than those I had in Rome!
Just good truffle oil, caviar and al dente angel hair pasta.
This little plate of thing sends me right up to heaven!

Thanks for the treat, love!

IMG_2578

We also had some Japanese at MOF in Bugis Junction.
I always thought people would just go there for desserts.
They actually serve pretty decent food too!
This is cold ramen with salon and avocado.

IMG_2774

And Creme Brulee. It tastes really good with vanilla ice cream!
We MUST try serving our homemade Creme Brulee with vanilla ice cream in future.
As for the Creme Brulee itself, I think we make better ones! *confident*
Hahaha.

And I finally brought my old (new) oversized clutch out too!
I am also loving the horsie-print top I bought from Zara in Rome.

The vintage looking watch is from Rome.
They were all Murano glass watches that originated from Venice though.
I love the red and the multi-colored clock face!

And as some of you might already know, two of my closest girlfriends will be getting married this year!
Sinsin will be getting hitched in May and Lianie in December.
There will be many hearts breaking out there as the two wonderful girls finally settle down. Heh.
I accompanied them for another fitting and this fitting was really special!

IMG_2799

This bridal studio is actually in a flat unit in Bukit Batok!
I was really blown away when I was there because it’s so amazing to have a bridal studio in a flat.
The owner, Ceciline can just pull a couple curtains and the corner will look cosy like a bridal studio.
They even have their own platform for the bride to stand on when trying on the dresses.
It doesn’t feel as stressful as visiting a typical bridal studio.
No other couples hanging around in the shop too.
Undivided attention rocks! Hahaha.

The girls tried on some gorgeous dresses!

IMG_2782

I love the details on this dress!
They were all hand sewn! Can you imagine the hard work?
According to the designer, you can actually show her what design you want and
she can sew you your very own unique wedding dress!
Freaking awesome. Hahaha.
I don’t understand how some people can sew so well.
I cannot sew to save my life man!

IMG_2797

This is the platform! Pretty.

IMG_2788

Lianie is here to try out the gowns too!
I think we were a little noisy at the fitting this afternoon.
But it’s so fun because we feel totally at home in the house! :D

IMG_2789

IMG_2792

Look at this fabric! All hand sewn! *jaw drop*

IMG_2793

IMG_2794

IMG_2795

Lianie goofing around, as usual!

IMG_2790

It is not easy to be the husband too. Haha!

IMG_2796

Oh if you are interested in this freaking cool bridal shop, it’s called The Wedding Ateliers!

The girls and I later went for our yummy buffet dinner at Park Royal again!

IMG_2798

You girls are beautiful and I love y’all!
