[FOOD TASTING] KUVO SINGAPORE - A LIFESTYLE CONCEPT AT ORCHARD SHOPPING CENTRE

Today I am going to introduce a hidden gem located at Orchard Shopping Centre, just right outside 313 Somerset, there's a interesting lifestyle concept restaurant/bar.lounge hidden in the corner which is Kuvo Singapore.


When you first enter the restaurant, you will need to take the escalator up and you will pass by their pop-up store/gift shop whereby they sell exclusive wine labels served in KUVO.


Kuvo Pop-Up Store / Gift Shop

The Pop-Up Store / Gift Shop is a great place to shop for gifts for your friends/loved ones especially during Christmas Season.


I love the restaurant's ambience and design which gives a wonderful environment to relax and dine. 

Yuzu Pear Tea

We decided to try out their fruit tea which is Yuzu Pear, basically all their gourmet tea will be served by the pot as seen in the picture above. I love their beautiful transparent tea pot and their glass cup is burn proof in which you can touch the outside of the cup without scalding your hand, how thoughtful of them. The Yuzu pear tea is a green tea blend of Kochi Yuzu, Nashi pear and white chrysanthemum.

We tasted some of the dishes in Festive Buffet With Oriental Flair and I will share with you all my review on those dishes below:

ENTREE


Fried Egg in Crispy Cup

The Fried Egg in Crispy Cup is crispy on the outside and inside of the cup consists of fried egg, bean sprout and shrimp and it was surprisingly not too salty.

Orange Peel Daikon Roll

The Orange Peel Daikon Roll dyed in beautiful pink is sweet and sour, appetizing and refreshing at the same time which is great for starter of a meal.


Chilled Squid in Coriander-Chilli Dressing

The squid is fresh and match the chilli dressing.

Winter Pumpkin & Spare Rib Broth

I love the Winter Pumpkin & Spare Rib Broth, the soup is sweet and addictive while the pumpkin is very soft and goes well with the spare rib.

CARVING STATION


Prawn Paste Stuffed Turkey Roulade

The Prawn Paste Stuffed Turkey Roulade is probably the spotlight of the festive buffet, after all people tend to eat turkey during Christmas. The turkey roulade is soft and tender and complements well with the prawn paste.

LIVE STATION

Turkey Wonton Noodle Soup

Normally Wonton is stuffed with shrimp, however this wonton is really unique as it is stuffed with Turkey! The wonton taste really good with the noodle soup.

Fresh Shucked Oyster

No wonder it is named as Fresh Shucked Oyster, the oysters are really fresh and the sauce given was sour and refreshing.

HOT DISHES


Champagne Pork Rib

If you are worry about having champagne taste in the Champagne Pork Rib, you can rest assure I couldn't taste that it was champagne, the sauce was abit sour and goes really well with the tender pork rib.

Snapper Loin tossed in Cranberry-Pineapple Sauce 

The Snapper Loin tossed in Cranberry-Pineapple Sauce taste very much like the Cantonese Style Sweet and Sour fish. What's unique is that it is topped with dried cranberry that make it even more appetizing.

Wok-fried Prawn with Special Sauce

The prawn is consider big as compared to other buffets outside which is very worth the price, the sauce and the prawn is in harmony. 

Garlicky Hong Kong Kailan

I find the Garlicky Hong Kong Kailan abit oily or maybe because I don't really like oily food.

SWEET / DESSERTS

Christmas Log Cake

A Christmas buffet is incomplete without the Christmas logcake, I love the beautiful design of their logcake.

Mango Sago

Mango Sago is great dessert to end our meal as it is sweet and sour and relaxing.

The Festive Buffet With Oriental Flair offers a great variety of dishes and I personally find the prices (Adult -$68++ , Child $35) quite worth it because the portion is quite big and you can defintely taste that the ingredients of the food are made of premium quality. Further more I love the great ambience and cozy environment of the restaurant which helps to lift up the mood while dining.

If you looking for a place to chill, you can proceed to their bar area in the restaurant whereby you can enjoy alcohol drinks with your friends / loved ones and relax.



The multi-award winning bartender with more than 6 years of experience around the world will bring you beautiful and unique cocktail creations that will surprise you. 

We decided to try out Jupiter which is a powerful drink with the taste of sky and thunder with a unique taste of saltiness, sweetness and complex aroma. It is a drink that rewards the brave!


Come and experience the wonderful ambience together with your friends/ loved ones this festive season at Kuvo Singapore.

22-24 December 2017

UPBRA REVIEW - BEST PUSH UP BRA THAT STAYS ALL DAY LONG

I am sure every girl wants to find a bra that can give her good cleavage and at the same time feeling comfortable while wearing it all day long. If you haven found the right bra, I would like to introduce you to Upbra from USA which can help you to lift up your boobs and at the same time you will feel comfortable wearing it. If you haven't heard Upbra made an appearance on CBS The Doctors Televsion Show for a segment called "Cleavage that is Not Surgery".

This is mailing package of the Upbra



Basically what will be inside the package will be the Upbra/s that you have ordered and the instruction manual guide which also contains their contact details whereby you can contact them just in case you need any help. There's also a return and exchange form whereby if you realized that the size of the bra doesn't fit you and you can mail it for an exchange etc.

I have ordered the Upbra Convertible Bra in Solid Black & Upbra Miraculous Stay-Up Strapless Bra in Nude color as shown in the picture below:


 Upbra Convertible Bra in Solid Black

Upbra Miraculous Stay-Up Strapless Bra in Nude color


The Upbra Convertible Bra has convertible and removable straps however it cannot be worn strapless. If you want a strapless bra, you can go for the Upbra Miraculous Stay-Up Strapless Bra. The Upbra Miraculous Stay-Up Strapless Bra comes with mini cute pink bag which contains the bra straps in which you can also wear the bra with the straps.

Heart Shape Grip Support

The back of the Upbra has the heart shape pattern design, for what I know the inside of the heart shape pattern helps to grip the breasts and move them inward and upward when the cleavage control straps are pulled which allow your cleavage to stay up all day long.

Cleavage Control Straps / Locking system

This is the cleavage control strap where you can control and adjust by pulling the staps and hooking them in locking slots.

4 Hooks System

Normally the standard bra has 3 hooks however Upbra has 4 hooks which can helps to extend the life of the bra because overtime when the bra stretches, you can hook into the tighter hooks!



I tried wearing the Upbra for whole day long, personally I feel that it is really comfortable and generally gives a good cleavage! If you wish to purchase the upbra, please visit their website for more information:

WISHTREND VITAMIN 75 MAXIMIZING CREAM REVIEW

Vitamins are essential for healthy and beautiful skin. I have recently discovered this Vitamin 75 Maximizing Cream from Wishtrend in which it can help to increase the skin's absorptive powers and harmonious the effects of Vitamin C & E.



Wishtrend is a Korean brand that sells Korean beauty, skincare and makeup products. I love the packaging of the cream 50ml / 1.76oz which is light weight and perfect for travel.


Basically this is how the cream looks like, at first it may look very creamy and you might think its hard to absorb into the skin.


The cream is white in color, not sticky, absorbs really quickly and great for sensitive skin. There is an instant cooling effect when you apply the cream. You can use it daily as a moisturizer, it contains organic vitamin ingredients that can help to brighten up the skin. Another thing I love about this cream is that it leaves a light lemon scent after apply it.


These are the ingredients that the cream contains, I took a close up just in case if you are allergic to any of these ingredients please do not try the product. Besides that, it is generally safe for sensitive skin. The cream cost about USD$27.99 which is generally reasonable as you can use it over a period of time.
