[Food Review] Beanstro by The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf® Launches Breakfast Special for a limited period only!


"Something to start your day right and it's gonna be Beanstro by The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf®!"

Breakfast to me is really important! When you start your day right with the right food, you'll get great strength and energy for the rest of the day! And of course, if you enjoy what you eat, you will be even more positive and happy!

You must have heard this before,"A hungry man is an angry man!"
So I always believe in starting your day right with food that you enjoy best!

And here in this post, I'm so happy to share with you guys this super good news!

Beanstro at Takashimaya has launched its breakfast special and it's going on for a limited time only!

I was lucky to be on time to try out this satisfying breakfast special!

And here it goes~

Love how they have done up the place so cozy and the staff are so friendly there!

*I actually had a glimpse of the desserts display and I was already drooling!







Brought along my partner in crime, Shannon aka Mr Style King as he too love food like I do!

Beanstro has quite a good range of beverages to choose from,  so I've ordered myself a Mocha Latte and  Shannon a Hazelnut Latte to start of.

As you can see from the table menu, Beanstro's Breakfast Special does serve with coffee or tea, so do let them know your preference! 

(*might have additional cost if you choose to change your drinks to latte or others, do check out with the Beantro's friendly staff for more info alright!)



Egg Royale (S$13.50++)

I would say this is THE-ONE for me! This was the first to served up and while I slowly dig-in to this crazy delicious Egg Royale, I just couldn't stop myself at all! I was suppose to share all 4 breakfast specials with Shannon to have a taste of each but this seriously just too good for me! I love the poached egg, so soft yet done just right. The smoked salmon so tasty and combining all together with the soft toast at the bottom= no words can describe!


And Beanstro are sucha a sweetie, they are so generous with their smoked salmon.





Next up,
Egg Florentine (S$12.50++)
This is another good-to-try dish if you love flavorful fried garlic and ham! 
The combination does work wonders to your taste bud! 


*Seriously, another generous portion of ham by Beanstro! I like!


Egg Salmon & Asparagus (S$14.00++)

Well, you might be thinking what is so different with Egg Royale where there's salmon too in this dish.
If you love your food with a little crunchiness and a little excitement, do go for this dish!
This is my second choice out of the 4 Breakfast Special by Beanstro.
Love how they make use of the salmon wrap with asparagus!





Egg Beef Patty (S$13.00++)

To be honest, I'm not really a red-meat lover. But I've tried tasting this dish and I find that it's quite interesting. The Beef Patty was definitely well done, It was tasty and juicy. The sauce for this dish was a little spicy, somewhat similar to curry sort of taste. This dish will be good for those who love red meat (Beef) and a little spice to excite them.




Here's me and my favorite dish 'Egg Royale from Beanstro'..


If I could just have it all by myself......~ Fun Emoticon



You gotta love the toast! I was raving about the toast on how soft it was and yummy. *drools again*

After the satisfying breakfast, we stayed on for desserts.
I've never tried desserts from Beanstro before. 
And the kind manager of Beanstro suggested us to try out 2 desserts, Apple Crumble and Bread & Pudding, which was their most popular orders.
 (*I can say I am kinda a regular @ MBS Beanstro, time to chill out more at Takashimaya Beanstro~!)


Apple Crumble
(served warm)

I have tasted apple crumbles somewhere else which usually a tad sweet, and will makes you feel thirsty. But surprisingly, Beanstro's Apple Crumble was not too sweet and it taste just right to me.
Great dessert for sharing after meals!



Bread & Pudding
 (served warm)
I love how they displayed the Bread & Pudding in a cup!And this dessert too, not too sweet and it just right for my liking.


Imagine yourself having a cuppa in hand, and digg'in to your dessert, watching people walking by while you relax your mind.
That's what I ultimately felt after my satisfying breakfast at Beanstro, Takashimaya.

Beanstro not only serves breakfast during the breakfast hours, they do have the All-Day Breakfast menu if you have cravings for pancakes and others!




Do check out Beanstro's Breakfast Special before 31st July 2013


*Beanstro’s Breakfast Special is exclusively available at the Beanstro outlet at Takashimaya S.C, #B1-37, only from 6 May to 31 July 2013, until 11am daily!
(All prices are subject to 10% service charge and prevailing government taxes.)

Food Review: Ice cream desserts makes you fly ~ Seventh Heaven Part 2

 This post was a little back-dated because of my schedule.
Apologies to all!

But here I am, gonna make you guys salivate again... haha!

I usually think that a meal without desserts is not considered as a MEAL meal.. but who says you have to have meals before desserts??

Like me and my friends, we eat like nobody business! 
Be it dessert in the morning or tea-time, we still whack it! haha! 

Here I would like to thank my partner in crime, MrStyleKing and Seventh Heaven's Team for this unbelievable awesome dessert-tasting session with Valentine and Mag!

(My blog post for the Seventh Heaven Part 1 review [CLICK ME])

Muahaha!
Are you Ready??

DRUM ROLLS!


Here we go...
Ice Cream lovers, you gotta check out this awesome tall ice cream dessert;

MILE HIGH MUD PIE!





Its super yummy as the chocolate crisp on the outside and the ice cream in it was still cold n intact while we were cam-whoring with it! haha!



It somehow look like a chocolate "tree" to me, I scrap off the outer layer of the chocolate and it revealed 3 layers of different flavors of ice cream!!


The top part was FrenchVanilla flavor, mild sweetness of Coffee flavor and last but not least
 Rich Chocolate flavor! 

This is best for sharing! :) (4pax)

Up next was this uber delicious dessert that really impress me!

Can you guess it??
*
*
*

YES!
It's the Warm & Soft Chocolate Cake!

There's this rich and moist cake somehow similar to those chocolate lava cake but its really chocolatey and when you dig into the chocolate cake, the warm chocolate fudge oozes out from it and it's splendid to compliment with a French Vanilla... HOT & COLD! Can you resist?

At first I thought it will be a soft chocolate cake which is warm up and the ice cream was topped over. But when it was served in the picture below..

I was like.. where's the cake? Ahhhh... the white small bowl actually contains the chocolate fudges and yes it's pretty soft too!

Okay, typing this makes me hungry again... :(
*rubs tummy & find food*

Next up, definitely some specialty scoops of ice creams for us to try! :)

Peppermint, Popcorn, Cottoncandy

The Popcorn Ice cream REALLY has bits and pieces of popcorn in it! So cool!


The Eat-Till-Very-Full Peeps! haha!


And of course, the group photo :)

So happy we can come back to taste yummilicious ice cream desserts from Seventh Heaven again!

Thanks Mr Style King and Seventh Heaven Team once again!

Frankenweenie Movie Review Rating: 7.5/10
*prepare tissue, you may need it*
I must confess in advance, I'm not that sorta girl who loves cartoon or animated shows, but I must say that this movie did impress me.

This movie did made me teared at some part of the movie because it was kinda real in some ways like how ah boy will protect me when my bf tries to get close to me (he will bark at him like asking him to stay away).
 Sweet and cute right? That's why having a pet is so awesome! 
*I particularly despise pet/animal abusers, SHOO!*

But it makes me think of him even more.... :(

*I know many bloggers teared as well so hahaha, I'm not gonna tell you~!*
