The Perfect Outfits for a Summer Lunch Date in Paris

My favourite city in the world is the one place that boasts fine exquisite eats and chic fashion trends. Yes that’s right, J’adore Paris! I find myself having to pack that extra bit fashionable when I'm going to Paris, as french women are so effortlessly chic all the time.

Summer is here and it's time to experiment with bold colours and prints! So I’m going to talk about two outfits that are perfect for a summer lunch date and let you in on some nice french restaurants.

Hokkaido Sushi(M Hotel) - Free Flow Fresh Sashimi and Sushi!

Singaporeans love Japanese buffets because we get to indulge in unlimited servings of sashimi. Over at Hokkaido Sushi, you can have limitless amount of sashimi too, except that the sashimi quality here is definitely top-notch. I've been to countless buffets, and I've had my fair share of sashimi and I can safely say that the quality and freshness of the sashimi at Hokkaido Sushi is second to none. With over 80 dishes on their Hokkaido Buffet Experience menu, I believe that you will be getting your money's worth here.

Pets Picnic 2016 @ Sentosa Cove

King Waffles and I attended the third edition of Pets Picnic Party at Sentosa Cove and we had a blast! It was heaven on earth, as hundreds of adorable pups and dog-lovers gathered, injecting life, buzz and joy into the quiet and tranquail Sentosa Cove. I was very impressed with the picnic pack which comes with a really durable picnic mat, Watermelon Seafood Fried Rice from Gin Khao, chips from Mister Potato, drinks from Snapple and doggy treats from Jerhigh.

The Great Lunch Steak-Out @ District 10 (Suntec City)

Everyone loves a good steak but we all know that they, more often than not, burn a hole in your pocket. What if I told you that you can get possibly the best Fiorentina steak in Singapore at an unbelievably wallet-friendly price? For just $45 per pax, savour this incredibly fine steak that hails from Florence with two lunch buds, anytime from 1130am - 230pm from Monday to Saturday.

Teppan Bar Q @ Robertson Walk (Unity Street)

It's been at least seven years since I've had teppanyaki I think? I remember the entire experience being particularly enjoyable, watching the chefs whip up a storm right in front of us. Three months old Teppan Bar Q is a contemporary teppanyaki restaurant focused on authentic Hakata Teppanyaki dishes. If you're looking to have a teppanyaki dinner in a fun and lively setting, read on to find out more!

Ciel Patisserie - New Outlet at Jalan Bukit Merah

Ciel Patisserie has been around for a couple of years now. I remember visiting them when they were still located at a tiny corner in Bugis. Chara Lum, the founder of Ciel Patisserie, is my schoolmate from Anglo-Chinese Junior College who went on to Le Cordon Bleu in Paris. She has brought delightful and affordable French pastries to the neighbourhood of Hougang when she opened up her very own brick and mortar shop back in 2012. Following the success of their first outlet, and their online bakery business, Ciel Patisserie is ready to say hello and bring life to the quiet Jalan Bukit Merah estate.

(CLOSED)Big Lazy Chop @ Short Street (Selegie)

Six months old Big Lazy Chop might not be situated at the most easily located or eye-catching spot but it is actually pretty near town. It's just a short walk away from the famous Rochor Beancurd at Selegie. There's ample parking in the compound and the 90-seater has both an alfresco and air-conditioned area. At the helm of the kitchen is Chef Oh, who has more than 37 years of experience whipping up palate-pleasing fare. He has come up with around 30 sauces that diners can pair with meat or seafood options. The Salted Egg Yolk XL Spare Ribs ($20) is one of the most popular items here and I urge you to give these gigantic ribs a go!

Lobsterfest at Lime(PARKROYAL on Pickering) - Free Flow Lobsters!

The highly anticipated Lobsterfest is back! In conjunction with SG50 last year, Lime dressed their Maine lobsters in more local flavours. This year, diners can look forward to a wider variety of Western-style lobsters. In addition to their usual spread of fresh seafood on ice, sashimi, Peranakan selection and dessert range, Lobsterfest brings you 10 droolworthy Maine lobster dishes.

(CLOSED)Senate Coffee @ Great Eastern Centre (Pickering Street)

The folks behind Populus have struck with their second venture. Located within FIVE Square at the Great Eastern Centre is Senate Coffee, a specialty coffee kiosk that serves up healthy grain bowls and nutrient bowls. If you've tried the grain bowls at Populus and are a fan, you'll be pleased to know that you can get them here too! A darker roast is served at Senate Coffee so do expect a nuttier and less acidic cuppa.

Brotzeit Celebrates 10th Anniversary with German Heritage Beers @ 313 Somerset

Homegrown Brotzeit celebrates ten good years of serving up authentic German fare and German beers, and a strong regional presence with the addition of four draft beers from two German heritage breweries, Franziskaner and Löwenbräu. With six outlets in Singapore and thirteen more in six other countries, Brotzeit is a resounding success.
