(Media Invite) Kakis Bistro & Bar Exclusive Breakfast Session

Last month, July 25th, Saturday, my family was invited by Kakis Bistros & Bar at 289 Farnborough Road, Singapore 509747 together with other bloggers to enjoy an exclusive breakfast session. It was an exciting morning filled with fun games and exciting activities with beautiful scenery & greenery surrounding us.

Kakis Bistro & Bar was re-launch in November 2013 in Changi Village, within a Plant Nursery (Greenology) and their missions are FRIENDS, GREEN, LOVE. A perfect gateway location to have a good quality time and to chill out with family and friends.

Here's the Kakis Weekend Breakfast Menu :) Personally, I think the prices are so worth it, worth the good foods and the beautiful scenery surrounding the bistro & bar as well as relaxing & cozy place to hang out with family and friends.

Thank you for providing us with this paper and color pencils as well. It really helped to keep EJ entertained while we were waiting for our breakfast

The beautiful scenery :)

Super cozy bar

 

 A very relaxing place full of greenery, I can't agree more! It's simply beautiful and breath taking!

A perfect place to enjoy your breakfast session with your family and friends

Yummy nasi lemak. I would rate that 8/10! The chili is really good and the fried chicken is really crispy, accompanied with hot fragrant rice. Delicious!

My boy loved his kiddy pancake so much that nothing left in his plate :p I would say it's a healthy choice of breakfast for kids too

We have also tried Little Hero Big Breakfast (Sunny Side Up, Grilled tomato, Bacon, Sausage, Bread) and Rosti with Jumbo Hot Dog which unfortunately I didn't have the pictures. I was nursing baby Calysta when the foods came and both my helper & my boy were too hungry (and of course the foods were good and tempted them to eat so much) and they ate half of the yummy foods before I had the chance to take pictures. Hahaa.. I would rate Little Hero Big Breakfast 7/10 and Jumbo Hot Dog 8/10. My favorite would the Jumbo Hot Dog, not only it tasted good but it was very filling too!

I would recommend this place to those who love to enjoy beautiful morning with refreshing greenery with their family members and friends.

Enjoy the good foods, enjoy the greenery!

Beauty & Health Regime & Try To Conceive

Good day!!! It's a beautiful sunny day today and I wanna share with you my beauty & health daily regime. It's my beauty care (inside my body). I believe in good supplements! When we are healthy, we are beautiful inside out! I truly believe that, to be beautiful outside, we gotta first take care the inside beautifully. It's also good to maintain good health when you are trying to conceive like me :)

Wanna be pretty with smooth glowy skin, healthy hair, nails & teeth? Go and stock up your supplements!!

See what I stock up:

Royal Jelly. Superfood! Benefits:

More energy, Healthier skin and hair, More youthful appearance, Strengthened immune system, Reproductive health - fertility, More resilience to colds/flu, Reduced feelings of stress

What has it got to do with fertility? well, based on my research, it helps with egg quality, stimulates more regular female hormone (reproductive). Somehow it makes our female reproductive system running smoothly according to its nature. For male, it helps with increased sperm quantity :) I suggested my hubby to take 1 capsule every morning before breakfast. And yeah I take one too every morning :)

Aloe Vera juice & honey. Aloe Vera is good for body inflammation & has detoxifying properties. Overall, it's very good to flush all toxins out of the body & clear up the system

Morning before breakfast. This is what I prepare:

1/4 cup of aloe vera juice (bought from Nature Farm), 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar  (bought from nature farm) & 1 full tablespoon of honey. It's very very refreshing with a glass of water :)

Apple Cider Vinegar is another super food. Many swear by its benefits!! Apple cider vinegar is just as effective in preventing all kinds of diseases

Benefits:

Helping reduce the risk of heart disease, antioxidant boost, prevent cancer, prevent memory loss, prevent cold & flu, helping to control weight and many more.. It also prevents acne & promotes healthy skin. And whitens teeth too :)

What has it gotta do with fertility? Well, Apple Cider Vinegar is known to help maintain an acidic environment in body, sometimes when body is too acidic, it kills sperms before it has the chance to meet the egg or we might not even have the chance for conception due to imbalance pH, well I mean we will never know what happened inside our body, so why don't give it a try? In conclusion, Apple cider vinegar can work to balance the pH and therefore improve fertility.

Me & hubby take 2 tablespoons in the morning & night with 1 tablespoon of honey ! I believe it will improve sperm quality too!

Another herbal drink I prepare : Ginger Tea (1 bag), Green Tea (1 bag) & Cinnamon drink (2 sticks) :) Drink these 3 altogether in a cup of warm water, you can mix it with honey too :) I like it with a little bit of honey:

Yunani and Ayurvedic Medicine have been using honey for thousands of years to strengthen the semen of men. In China, Japan and Far-East countries, women, who do not conceive and need to strengthen the uterus, have been taking cinnamon powder with honey for centuries

For ginger tea, Chinese believes that it warms up our womb and make it ready for conception to happen and for green tea, of course besides the antioxidants for beauty, it's also good for fertility due to the antioxidant properties inside to protect body's cells from damage :)

My other superfood, Black Garlic.. this is very very good for body inflammation. Yes, I suffered badly from body inflammation in the past. I'm not sure whether it's due to my ovarian cysts or suspected endometriosis, I just got hot very easily.. After having one pill a day, I realise I'm no longer suffer burning sensation inside my flesh. What a relief!! I swear by this! Of course, garlic has super powerful antioxidant properties, prevents cancer, cures diseases and many more!!

What has it gotta do with fertility? well, when our body inflammation is high (due to endometriosis for example), it prevents us from conceiving!! so I drink this to control my inflammation and thus increase my chance to conceive!!

All we need is to just make use of nature truly & fully :)

Vietnamese Chicken Pho (noodles), I crave for this once in a while, the soup is so comforting in some ways lol, the fragrant soup, the taste of the mint leave, the soup... is just so so so soothing inside my mouth. Heavenly taste! One of the best! Good to have it with fried spring roll :)

I love love love this, it's called Mee-Soup (noodles soup) and only available in Medan, Indonesia. Noodles with chicken balls and crackers. Of course, it's spicy!

The famous wantons noodles at joo chia road... It has been there for 3 generations... My hubby's favourite since he was a kid :) Heavenly! I love the soft noodles texture with the tasty seasoning oil & good chili paste to accompany with. Not forgetting the fragrant plain soup! We have this at least once or twice in a week. Family's favourite in Singapore!

My home made Indonesian instant Mee-Goreng (Fried-Noodles). So good but not healthy!

North Bedok, Bak-Choi-Mee or minced meat noodles. The stall is very very popular and has been selling for generations. Expect to wait about 30 minutes! Worth of waiting though!

Not forgetting the pork dumplings, so yum-yummy :) Only available in Singapore though! Me, Hubby & Mum-in-law have this every Saturday/Sunday.. It's a MUST to eat!
