Little Bird by Camilla Way
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Although you can pretty much tell which character is which (either in terms of what roles they play or who they are) , the storyline still holds a bit of mystery in terms of what happens next.
I like how the author used such a unique (I haven't read a book which has a similar character yet) main character. Even though there are such people in the real world, we hardly ever hear about them, or their story. (Unless we specifically look it up)
Quite a depressing book as most of the characters have troubled past/present.
Too much profanity for my taste. Even though the author might be showing how people in that area actually speak, im sure there are other slightly less sever cuss words that can replace the f word.
Nice read, but I would not put my eyes through that again.

Pastamore food review
Their website- http://www.pastamore.com.sg/
The restaurant was almost empty, which was surprising as we went on a Saturday evening. The place itself was cute small and cozy, has both indoor and outdoor seats. One table even had a couch as seating!
Among the three of us, we shared a lasagne, Hawaiian pizza and Beef tenderloin.
My mom mentioned that they might have put eggs in the pizza, as it was quite fluffy and had a lovely fragrance. The pineapples on the pizza tasted as if they had beer inside, quite refreshing.
The lasagne didn't look appetizing to me, but it was yummy.
I felt that the beef might be a little too pricey for the size we got. It was quite thick though. Too chewy for my liking.
It also had this mushroom sauce which I absolutely HATE. (i just hate strong mushroom smells)
For dessert, we ordered Panna Cotta, Tiramisu and Chocolate Gelato.

I would recommend trying this place out! This place IS pet friendly so if we happen to come here again, I will definitely bring my dog along!

Guzman Y Gomez Review
My mom and I ordered the Grilled Chicken Burrito bowl, Slow roasted beef with hard tacos. Ice lemon tea and lemonade.
Overall, I would say that it was very affordable, the portions were decent and quite filling too. If I were to go there again, I would just order the burrito bowl to share with another person.
That would be enough. The burrito bowl was a little sour though, hard to eat after a while as it was too rich. (the taste)

Bornga Korean BBQ Review
I have never eaten at a proper Korean bbq before, so i don't know the 'usual price' out there, but for the quantity we ordered, it was slightly too expensive. ($30-40 for 3 slices of meat)
For the bbq, there is a employee that will help you cook the meat and cut it up. The lady that served us was super nice and remembered to ask how cooked we wanted the meat. Unfortunately, one of our beef set was slightly overcooked. (we wanted half cooked/medium) Still, it was an interesting experience, having someone cook at our table for us!
The meal does come with quite a few side dishes and a huge spread of veggies to use to wrap the meat with.
Don't think I will return to this restaurant as it is too expensive. The meat was yummy though!
