Review: Supply & Demand

Hello everyone! I'm back with a review of Supply & Demand which was where I had dinner with an ex-colleague of mine one Friday evening after work.


Supply & Demand
277 Orchard Road #02-13/14 
Orchard Gateway
Singapore 238858
Tel: 67026218
Opening Hours: 11:30am – 10:30pm (Mon-Sun)

Located at the newly opened Orchard Gateway, this restaurant is nestled in a corner of the mall. You should be able to find it relatively easy once you get there.
Anyway, we did make reservations prior but due to a horrible traffic jam on the CTE, it resulted in us being about 20 mins past our reservation timing.
Was fairly prepared to give up and go elsewhere for dinner as the waiting time is 10 mins if I'm not wrong but we decided to try our luck and heng ah we managed to get our table still :D


We were seated by the window area inside of the restaurant (they have an area outside of the main restaurant, within the mall space) and I have to say I'm impressed by the cosy and homely vibes this place gives off.
And thankfully the sky was still bright when we came so photos turned out quite nicely too!


The menu consists of 2 types of fare - Italian along with Asian and the usual appetizers and what not. My friend and I decided to order a side and pizza to share along with a main course each.
FAT DIE US. tskkkkkkk!

Garlic Truffle Fries

This is really da bomb! I have an obsession with anything truffle - if I see it on the menu, I have to order it without fail lol. And I'm pleased to say this wasn't overly doused with truffle oil or something. The fries are the chunky kind but the balance of garlic and truffle was amazing! I actually ate this the most outta all the food :P

Pollo E Piselli

Cheese infused cream sauce with chicken chunks, green peas, sun dried tomatoes and parsley

One thing I like about this place is that it offers their pasta as appetizers or as a main so you can choose which portion sizes you'd prefer. I went for the main because the waiter told me the appetizer '5 mouthfuls only' and the kiasu Singaporean in me went for the main course because it's only a difference of $4.
I regretted it! Because we over ordered everything and I got jelak after taking 2 mouthfuls (oops!). The sauce is flavourful don't get me wrong, I'm just not the usual cream sauce pasta kinda person. 

Zi char style curry chicken

My friend ordered this based on online reviews. It was really nice and yummy! The curry sauce wasn't too spicy and I quite like it. I think I will order this if I ever visit this restaurant the next time around.

The Morning After 9" Pizza


Here's our 2nd food item to share lol. I know right, 2 girls eat a main course each, share a side and still order 1 pizza?! LOL but I have to say the pizza is really yummy!
Thin crust and baked to perfection, this was not difficult for us to eat despite having a main course each really.
But erh sadly, I was too filled to actually finish the whole pizza. We had about 2 slices leftover :(


Anyway, I had a great meal at Supply & Demand and I won't hesitate to come back because of the nice ambiance and food. Maybe I will ask the girls if they wanna go there and eat lol. I'm pretty sure Lirong is dying to come here (she did mention she really wants to come here to makan).
Do remember to reserve for a table ahead as the place gets really packed very quickly - by the time we left it was close to 7.45pm and the entire place was just bursting with patrons! - or you can always head to their other outlet at Esplanade Mall.
Ok, talk again bye! :D

I'm still alive... Really!

Hello! Long time no see hehe *shows guilty face*
I've kinda disappeared from this space for a while because.... PROCRASTINATION RULES!
So much so that since my last entry it's been 2 months already and my bf has actually flown to the UK to start his masters already haha!
Anyway, just to have a short update on what I've been up to:

- Had a free 2D1N staycation at Shangri-La resort in Sentosa because I won it from a contest

No really, I won it lol. Even the bf was shocked because... where got so heng right? Anyway, it was good because we stayed there for a night after collecting our new iPhone 6 that day :D

Couplefie on the balcony of the room

Dinner that night was at Chilli's in Resorts World Sentosa. He had the ribs while I opted for the chicken.



It was just a short stay because we checked out of the hotel at 12pm and then went to Vivocity to have Jamie's Kitchen and to buy more stuff for his UK stay.

- Sent him off on the 23rd of Sept to UK for a year



It was really difficult for me when I got home that night - I was silently crying under my blanket lol!
But anyhow, he's settling in really well there and made alot of new friends apparently! I've resigned myself to being sad, lonely and single (physically) every night too. It's just work and home then dance class and church on the weekends.


And he did finish my Rapunzel puzzle before he left lol! Good bf :D
Actually he started this puzzle back in April before he left for Taiwan. It was done approx 30% and I just was too lazy to complete it really. So when he returned in September, I nagged at home to finish it for me so I could frame it up. He finished in within a day O.O What the....?

- Makeover at YSL


I had a dinner function to attend and this really came just nicely! I love the way the MUA did my brows using just eyeshadow but my smokey eyes were... borderlining looking like a panda lol.
But hey, YOLO and I finally did a full out smokey eye look! *\O/*
I have another makeover to use at Anna Sui so... will see how it turns out then too haha! I love doing makeovers because it's so interesting to see the MUAs at work.

- Meet-up with Dream Team for dinner

Yay I finally met my university lab group mates for dinner! Yes, I'm the only female in this group but hey, these buggers do not treat me like a girl lor haha.
We went to Furama Riverfront Hotel to have dinner at Kintamani Restaurant.
It's a Indonesian restaurant and the food is pretty decent albeit at hotel prices.
Had a good chat with the 3 of them - omg my chao ah beng lab partner is getting married in 2016 lol!


We chatted for a good 4 hours, close to 5 actually and then parted ways. Then while I was gonna walk further away to my bus stop, they called me back to take photos lol. Wah lau eh *flips table*



It's pretty hilarious how we actually walked back to the hotel just to get chio lighting and background haha - men can be very narcissistic too ok!
But anyway, I had fun that night! It felt like the good ol' NUS days where we try not to burn down the lab with our reckless behaviour lol.

- Finished dance class from Infinite


Omonaaaaaaa, it's actually my 4th Infinite class for the year haha! I thought I'd be full out 'Infinite dance class only' but erh I'm learning Super Junior's right now too :X
Nevermind, I still call 2014 my year of Infinite dances lol! 

With our instructor who clearly is younger than all of us :/

- MBLAQ's Lee Joon & Thunder may not renew their contracts T.T


Ok this has nothing to do with my life but... I'm so sad really!!!!! T.T
T_________________T
Don't do this to me really, not when I'm so into you guys only now.....
When the news came in, I was in a meeting then after which... I couldn't concentrate at work!
SOBSSSSSSSSS. Ok la, anyway will just hope for the best. Else, I wish you all the best Joonie oppa and Doongdoong! LOL. Machiam my friends ah. HEHEHEHE.
And lastly on the beauty front - I'm so darn broke right now it's not even funny anymore >_<
Went down to Sephora ION to check out the new benefit X'mas gift sets after Mamacita class last Sunday.
The bff stopped me from buying anything. Like really -.-" She told me to go enter their IG competition instead. We both did in the end. You see her caption below.

Gizibeeeeeeeeeeeeee lol!

Here's my entry haha!~

Ending this entry with food obviously - what else is new? xD

Alrighty, getting into my blogging mojo. Hopefully Carol will be done with my new layout soon and I will officially move over to a dot com site :D :D :D
