Celebrating 30 Years of Starbucks SG: Hunting Down 8 Iconic Store Stamps in 2 Weeks

Whether you’re team YouTube or team Blog, I’ve got you covered! Moving forward, I’ll be pairing my video uploads with extra-detailed blog posts so you get the full scoop every time. In honor of Starbucks’ 30th Anniversary in Singapore (opened in 14.12.1996) , they released exclusive store stamps across 8 iconic outlets . I set out on a two-week mission to collect every single one. And it turned out to be equal parts of café exploration and endurance test; braving the intense tropical heat of Singapore and racking up serious steps as part of my daily exercise, just to reach outlets like Gardens by the Bay! But discovering new stores and filling up my journal made every step worth it. Here’s how the whole quest went down! Grab a journal card at any of the 8 iconic stores and get started! #1 Stop - Chinatown My stamp hunt officially kicked off at the 37 Smith Street outlet in Chinatown, the most convenient starting point for me since it’s just one stop train ride from my office during m...

Culinary | Pancake Making

Yup my very first attempt making pancakes at home. At night. Well... All of a sudden just feel like doing it. Because I have bought the pre-mix flour for pancakes at Cold Storage. The reason why I wanna do it because just wanna try out on my Happy Call Pan.

Yes... This is the pre-mix I bought (minus that tub of yoghurt) from Cold Storage, the Original. There is another one which is Maple Syrup (if I remember correctly). The instruction behind tells you how to go about tackling the flour. There is a water level indicator on the bottle. Just pour in water into this bottle till that level and shake it. So please remember to read the instruction behind. It says that this bottle can make about 15 pcs of pancakes. And due to my lousy skill, there is lots of different sizes out of it and I manage to make about 16 - 17pcs. Wahahahah.... 

So after shaking, I pour it out into a bowl. And I am all ready to make my first pancake. Such a big bowl of mixture. Or is it my bowl is big? Whatever...

So I start. Pour in a half teaspoon of oil and that's it. No more oil needed for subsequent ones. My Happy Call Pan manage to contain 2 pancake mix. Never do a good one for the first 2 but subsequent ones, I try to catch the timing for both sides of the pancakes and manage to see some golden brown side. 

Okay. I just don't get it why it comes out this way. Half golden brown. WTH!!! And some turn out full golden brown. Haiz... Anyway, so long is edible then it shouldn't be much a problem be it half or full brown. Whatever....

Right... I guess you peeps have saw this pic from my Instagram. And yes... I spend an hour doing 16 - 17pcs. Not bad a try. I shall do it again till I get it all at the right size and colour. Applause for myself. I show this pic to my guy and he said that it looks like cookies to him but is nice. Hee... Thank you very much. I love my Happy Call Pan!!!
