TOURIST GUIDE: TRICK EYE MUSEUM

June 22, 2015 by Little Miss Honey 1,623 Comments

On the day we went to the S.E.A. Aquarium, we also went to the Trick Eye Musuem. I got free tickets to the museum after winning the blogging challenge at Chinatown Food Street Blogger Event.

Trick Eye Museum

Trick Eye Museum is a unique museum with 2D paintings turning them into 3D images through optical illusions when pictures are taken through a certain angle. This type of art technique is called Trompe-l’oeil  which means  deceive the eye in French.

It was a weekend when we went there and there was a bit of queue. The place is not really a large so they need to regulate the crowd.

Once we were in, we happily played around the musuem.

Look at my prankster husband…

 I am starting to get a little jealous with the woman my hubby is dancing with. Hmp!

So here are some tips if you are going to the Trick Eye Museum:

1. Go on a weekday to avoid the heavy crowd.

2. Go with a partner. (Or else no one will take your picture for you)

3. Bring your camera or at least a good camera phone. (Duh! This is a given but just to make sure you don’t forget this.)

4. Wear comfortable clothes. For women, don’t wear skirts or wear short shorts. You will be doing some poses and those type of clothing can be unflattering in certain angle.

5. Bring your sense of humor. You will be posing, doing wacky stuff and will be doing a bit of acting in front of strangers  who are waiting for you to be done. If you will be self-conscious about it, you will not have fun in the museum.

6. Follow the instructions in each mural before taking picture. There are stand points where you should take a better picture. It helps a lot in how the picture turns out.

7. Be courteous. Don’t jump into the mural/painting when you see that there is still someone taking their picture or they have waited before you.

8. Have fun!

THINGS THAT INSPIRED ME THIS WEEK

I won a free aromatherapy from Havaroma for posting the best picture with their AromaStick a few months ago.  Last Wednesday, I finally attended the aromatherapy conducted by the Founder of Havaroma. I chose the Moms & Moms-To-Be Aromatherapy Workshop. I learned so much about aromatherapy that day and I was happy to make my own cleaning spray, sleep diffuser and hand sanitiser using essential oils.

On a Friday, I was happy to invited to the Cine65 Awards Ceremony. I got to witness the amazing short films entries made by pudding filmmakers that tells heartfelt stories of Singapore. I also got to see some of local celebrities that graced the event. It was also great to be there with HydeBluePark and see Frannywanny & Lunarrive again.

FOOD DISCOVERIES: SLAPPY CAKES (SINGAPORE)

June 2, 2015 by Little Miss Honey 1,975 Comments

Slappy Cakes

My husband loves pancakes even if my gluten-sensitive bloated tummy would object. So my distended abdomen have to go along with husband’s carb cravings (which I secretly enjoy despite bloated stomach and all).

One hot day, we decided to head to Resort World Sentosa for a day at the S.E.A Aquarium  and Trick Eye Museum to tour my niece who came to visit us for a few weeks here in Singapore. For lunch, we picked Slappy Cakes and ignored my gluten-sensitivity one more time.

The place looks very child-friendly. I can’t wait for Naj to try this when he gets a bit older.

What is special about this place is that you get to enjoy making and cooking your own pancakes. I think that is such a cute idea.

First, you choose your batter. You can have Buttermilk, Whole Grain, Peanut Butter , Chocolate or Zucchini. It comes in an 8.5 oz squeeze bottle ($8.5 per bottle). We got the Buttermilk.

Then you pick some fixings. You can choose from the Sweet like blueberries, raspberries, chocolate chips, strawberries, etc. or Savory like cheese, pork sausages, bacon, etc.

Slappy Cakes

Then you choose the toppings. You can have 100% maple syrup, chocolate hazelnut spread, homemade kaya spread, Greek yogurt, etc.

So let’s get cooking!

Remember to spread a bit of butter first. Then squeeze on the amount of batter you prefer.

Add fixings. We got some pork sausages.

Then flip!

We enjoyed it too much. We got another batter even if one batter was good enough for the 3 of us. (Naj was happy with milk so no pancakes for him.) This time, we chose the Peanut Butter.

For toppings, we got 100% maple syrup and raspberry jam.

My hubby was the official cook. He did such a great job with our pancakes.

We also got some pasta which is equally yummy for some variety.

I think Slappy Cakes is a great place for kids and kids-at -heart. The pancakes batter they offer are good, not runny and not too thick. It is such a fun place for family and friends to come together to make and enjoy real good pancakes. Even my bloated tummy would agree that the pancakes were good. My tummy gave out a gurgling sound of agreement. It is the only restaurant where you are encouraged to play with your food.
