Exploring Sg

Met up with Esther at Raffles Place MRT to go to the China Square Flea market. Alot of the shops in the business district were not open. There weren't much to see at the flea market and think the people were more interested in the labrador that was eating Mcdonald's ice-cream cone.

Walked to the shophouses opposite and found a lot of interesting shops there (Club St, Eskine Road). There's a spa shop selling organic products as well and the lady was very nice, offering us a taste of the organic tea, orange spice. Almost bought the organic tea from her as there were a few interesting blends like ginger oolong and berry mix. There were 18 satchets in a box and each box costs $15. There's a promotion, buy 2 get 1 free. But I decided to look around first before getting it. They have a similar shop in Vivocity and the lady was pleasantly surprised that I can linked the 2 shops based on the decor...haha.

Went to this shop called anthropology and got the citronella essential oil as I think the smell resembles eucalyptus and lemongrass combined. I love the tiny yellow bag that comes with the purchase...super cute. Pass by Maxwell Food Centre but didn't eat anything there though it's known for its tasty local fare. Have never eaten there before...ok mountain tortoise...Took a bus from Tanjong Pagar and saw alot of bridal shops opposite the bus-stop. The area is famous for the bridal studios. Some of the gowns really looked very beautiful...

Esther gave me Godiva chocs 72% cocoa for Xmas as I gave her a bodyshop bodywash before. Thank you! They taste fabulous!
