Miyagi Zao Fox Village at Shiroishi - Happy Foxes, Happy Visitors
Ever since I saw pictures of the Fox Village back in 2014, visiting it has been on my bucket list. So when I booked my trip to Japan back in March, I knew that I had to make it here! Our original plan was to travel here from Tokyo but we made a last minute decision to go from Kyoto instead. We left Kyoto at 8am in the morning, arrived at Tokyo around noon to deposit our luggage in the lockers, and made our way to Shiroishi-Zao from there.

Maison Astor Paris, Curio Collection by Hilton (Review)- Best Dog-Friendly 4 Star Hotel in Paris!
Maison Astor might just be the best dog-friendly hotel that I’ve
stayed in on my entire 6 month holiday in Europe. Built by John Jacob
Astor IV, the 4 Star Curio Collection by Hilton property has an
impressively rich history which dates back to 1907. Housing rooms in 9
categories, and suites in 4, the opulent Maison Astor is located on a
quiet and safe street in the heart of Paris(8th arrondissement) between
the Opera and Champs-Elysees. The magnificent hotel is the perfect base
to explore popular attractions and visit luxury shopping streets
such as Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. Whether you're on a romantic
honeymoon, or a relaxing vacation with your family and pup, Maison Astor
promises a marvelous stay that you will remember for a long time to
come.

Maltby Crumble Bar - Build Your Own Apple Crumble at Singapore's FIRST Crumble Bar!
Inspired by The Humble Crumble in London, Maltby Crumble Bar is my latest venture! It's essentially an extension of my ice cream and cookie brand, Twice Young. When I was living in London, I visited The Humble Crumble in Borough Market a few times. I loved the concept, and how you can dress up your crumble however you like — with custard, drizzles, and a variety of toppings. I starting working on this concept when I returned from my 13.5 month vacation in Europe and the UK with my dog, Snuffles, and tested it at Baker X at Orchard Central in December 2023.
I decided to name the concept Maltby, because we were actually living near Maltby Street in London, and I loved the area! Also, my dog is a Maltese and one of our favourite countries on our trip was Malta! It just seemed very apt, and the name sounds cute too haha
I spent a few months perfecting the recipes for both the stewed apples, and French butter crumble. It's sad that we can't get Bramley apples here, so we are using Granny Smith apples. For now, we only have apple crumble, but we are thinking of creating a berry crumble and a banana one in the future. At Maltby Crumble Bar, you can jazz up your apple crumble with ice cream, custard, drizzles and a myriad of sprinkles such as chocolate crunchy pearls and wildflowers.
Twice Young's signature ice cream flavours will be available on rotation, and our signature brown butter cookies, that we have sold tens of thousands of, will be available as well.
Maltby Crumble Bar is currently taking residency at Pinhole Coffeebar at 27 Purvis Street, #01-02, until the end of March
For exact opening hours, please visit Maltby's instagram page : https://www.instagram.com/maltbycrumblebar
Come and build your very own apple crumble with us!
If you're hosting a party and looking to serve the best apple crumble in Singapore, you can order our apple crumble for 10 pax : www.wearetwiceyoung.com

AxiTrader Review 2023 - Dishonest Broker Using Erroneous External Price to Their Advantage
(UPDATED) 24 November 2023
I first contacted Axi(www.axi.com) via email on 14 November about the erroneous external price adjustments which happened on 13 November. Their promise is that they will "get back with a reply within maximum 24 hours". They did respond to me but with a reply that did not address my queries. I then replied them, and also called in, and also chatted with an agent via live chat. Live chat and call agent said they would get Prince, the agent who replied my email, to get back to me. I did not receive any replies or responses at all until I received an email on 23 November. That's definitely way more than 24 hours.
I had basically asked for my open trades to be reinstated or for a portion of my balance to be returned to me because had the error not occurred, my open trades even with a floating P/L of -$70000 would still be open, and the market had moved according to what I was waiting for (XAUUSD to go up) right after, and hence, I would have recovered a huge chunk of my equity (probably 50-60k by 17 Nov).
This is what they sent me :
"We were also advised that we can no longer
reinstate the trades, days after the adjustments have been made as
significant market movement have already taken place after the CPI
release."
WOW, of course, you took 8 days to reply me, AFTER the CPI release, and say this.
