Starbucks Weave RWS Is Here... But with a Digital Twist

Welcome to my happy place a.k.a Starbucks at Weave Sentosa If you haven't heard yet, Resorts World Sentosa just welcomed Starbucks Weave on July 16 , and I was on the ground on July 17 to explore every corner after half a day at work. And can I say that it was my happiest day because I'm at my happy place? While the ambiance and coffee were incredible, the store’s Bearista mascots stole my heart. Every corner with their presence is photo-worthy for sure. And I couldn't help but wonder: what would these charming mascots look like living in a fully animated, dreamlike world? Thanks to a bit of AI magic, I reimagined my photos with the help of the photo editor and it turned the store's backdrop into an animated storybook setting without altering our beloved Bearistas one bit! Here’s a peek at the photo story and try spotting the difference.  Celebrating their 30th Anniversary in Singapore on 14 December 2026 RECOMMENDED SOUVENIRS/GIFTS FOR TOURISTS Highly recommend to get ...

[RECIPE] Stir-Fry Cucumber with Egg


[RECIPE PERFECT FOR 2]

How did this dish come about? All thanks to my husband. Instead of having cucumbers on its own (plain jane), he made it into a simple and fuss-free dish using three ingredients: cucumber, egg and dry shrimps. Perfect for small families like us (yes, just the two of us).

Because you need to soften the cucumber during the cooking process, slice the cucumber to the correct thickness so that it won't get mushy along the way.

Superb easy dish and if a noob like me can do it, you sure can. And you probably can innovate from here for other dishes.

Ingredients:

1 medium sized cucumber 
(skinned, seeds removed, sliced)

1 egg, beaten (w/o seasoning)

A handful of dry shrimps, soaked
(do not throw away the water)

1 tablespoon of Oyster sauce
(for seasoning: add more when needed)

Fried shallots for garnishing

Method:

1. Heat the pan with oil. Add minced garlic (ready-to-use type from supermarkets) or chopped garlic and stir fry till fragrance. 

2. Follow by soaked shrimps into the pan and do the same too. 

3. Time to put the sliced cucumbers to cook. Using the water from soaking the dry shrimps, add oyster sauce to it and mix well before pouring into the pan. That can help soften the cucumbers. 

4. Last step, to pour the beaten egg in anti-clockwise (or clockwise you prefer) the egg-drop way. Do not immediately stir. Wait for 5-10 secs or when you see it starting to cook (I mean the egg). Then mix with the cucumbers. 

5. Turn off the heat and serve with some fried shallots on top as garnishing.
