Qiji Northpoint

Qiji is finally brand new opening in Northpoint City now.

I like their popiah so much, by tasting the  different layers of crunch which were packed into this tiny roll from the thin skin, mixed vegetable and prawns. This cost S$2.30

The nasi lemak chili is first taste sweet and the spicyness come after. There are difference set of available some served with chicken wing , rendang. 

It's quite worth where this set cost S$4.60 in a comfortably environment..

Lontong, not recommending. 

Their curry chicken rice is good too. Like the fragrance curry soup.

Common Chefs Bistro

A good cafe in North that can surprise with you with the well served meal. 

All day CC breakfast

butter toast which bake extremely right, and a juicy meaty bacon which is not too salty. 

The black pepper mushroom taste well too. I would say this all day breakfast price S$13 is really worthy.

Taters tots with egg and bacon plus Parmesan cheese. 

cafe latte

Rich mouthfeel, great body and rich taste. I really like the latte. 

good ambient with good food. Definitely a good place for to fill up the holiday tummy.

Joo Siah Bak Kut Teh

The famous food chanel recommended this Bak Kut Teh and I make a trip down to try today. Well, the peppery soup isn't too heavy and you can refill. 

Don't feel disappointing when The signature long pork ribs is sold out, as the normal pork ribs is fresh and chewy to satisfy your stomach too.  

Must eat : Pork Rib Soup

Pork leg and the tao kee is normal. I prefer softer pork leg. 

Mee sua not bad. 

It's quite crowded and long queue, but it worth. And most of the tables also eat the Bak Kut Teh.

Loof

A comfortably chilling place in city hall. 

We have a random pop up to this roof top bar - the loof. It's better to do reservation during Friday night or weekend.

The house wine is smooth and shall grab it during happy hours. 

Korean fried fries

Must try. The sauce is sweet sour and honey feel..

Crispy chicken satay 

You wouldn't expect the chicken Satay is so delicious by looking at the crispy fried chicken stick. It is a marinated chicken Satay. Highly recommended 

BLT fried rice

Not recommend. Tomato Fried rice full with onion. Order this unless you superb like ketchup and onion. 

House wine 

Smooth :)

6D5N Boracay - Day 4 & 5 & 6 ~ Island hopping, Crystal Cove, Cliff Diving

Boracay Part 1 | Part 2 |

Boracay is one of the most popular tourism islands in the Philippines. The low season is from June to October when the sea is wavy and the weather is rainy. Besides the this period, the rest of the year is basically high season. 

The beach is very very long and is separated into 3 section 1, 2, & 3. Where section 2 is the most happening part of the beach. The island is very commercialized and majority of the tourists are Koreans and Chineses from China and handful of westerners. 

Generally the cost on the island is considered moderate depends on where you are from. But knowing how to bargain with the Philippines will certainly make your budget looser.

Activities 
We booked a tour guide earlier before departing. I don't recommend my tour guide, but we met another guy,  Domino which is highly recommended.

Accommodation
i) Boracay Holiday Resort for the first 4 nights
ii) Cohiba Villas at the last night. 

Below is a summary of the itinerary of a pretty leisure and relaxing 6-day trip of my friends and I on the Island:

Day 1 – Travelling and checking in

Day 2 – Zip line, Cable car, Fly Fish, Sun Set Sailing

Day 3 – Fun diving

Day 4 - Islands hopping, snorkeling, Crystal Cove (sight seeing)

Day 5 – Cliff diving in Magic Island, shopping, massage

Day 6 – Travelling back


Day 4 - Islands hopping, snorkeling, Crystal Cove (sight seeing)


The island hopping including the hopping for a few islands, and which should include the cliff diving too. However, due to strong wave, we couldn't dive for today. But since cliff diving is a must in boracay trip we rent a boat on the next day for the cliff diving.

Then the island hopping is just a typical ordinary visit to 3 islands. Stop by and have your own activities. We did some photoshooting and the guys play football with the local.



Crystal Cove.




This is our villas. - Cohiba Villa


A lot of sailing boat going to view sun set.



The sand castle is another special feature in Boracay. The children there all have the skill in making sand castle and you can ask them to cast your name, and just pay them some tips.

Basketball is a very famous sports in Philippine, you can see basketball field every where. And even this basketball game is very popular and it attracts the attention of both tourist and local too.

Day 6 ~ Travelling
Woke up early morning and took shuttle to D'mall. *No breakfast is provided for our villa.
We have a final shopping in D'mall and It's another torturing journey for travelling back. Good bye to the pretty beach.
