Grocery Shopping in Singapore!
Greetings from the sterile republic! *waves*
I have been out and about.. and hardly far from my laptop. :lol:
Tired out from the bus ride, I actually slept half the day yesterday! Major FAIL! I missed the chicken rice for lunch & ended up having this for lunch instead.
Not that I mind.. I love cakes!! :mrgreen:
(more details on the cakes later )

I love grocery shopping in other countries & I have always lamented that Malaysia seriously have some catching up to do. Though I have not been to that many countries… & based on my limited SEA travels, I rate Thailand & Hong Kong as one of the best for their groceries selection
So after the cake, I hobbled over to Giant since it was nearby & got myself this – Magnolia’s Yogurt Smoothie (SGD1.25). It tasted like Berries flavoured cough syrup. NOT recommended at all.
Those who know me well knows that I have an obsession with bread. Especially in Sg; I actually find their Gardenia edible, UNLIKE in Malaysia where I rather starve than eat Gardenia! You can read about their yummy loaves HERE. Their Gardenia is much thicker, denser & tasted way better than what we get here!
This time round, I saw some new addition to their range of ‘Fun Buns’ & got myself one each for variety
After chucking away the awful Magnolia smoothie, I bought this – F & N’s NutriSoy (SGD1.35). Luckily, this turned out to be a good choice. Thick & creamy, it did the job of washing off the medicinal taste from my mouth. Again I just can’t help but compare this to our Yeo’s, Nesvita & Soyrich, which sadly really loses out in terms of taste.
I’m not sure why I bought this Nescafe Macchiato (SGD2.50) , cos I can’t drink coffee! But I find it hard to stop buying everything! Guess I’ll just give it away
Look at the variety of cheese they have here!! I wonder if Unka will help me lug some home on his flight :mrgreen: (I’m taking the bus).

Ok, out I go! I hope to eat some reallllll FOOD today, I’m starving!!! :lol:
