Moisturizing & Repairing Foot Mask from Watsons

 Purchased this from Watsons.

 My foot was in need of pampering and decided to give this a try.

  

 This is what you get once you open it. Best to put in the fridge before using. Material of the foot mask is soft and feels like cotton cloth.

Cover your foot with the foot mask and plastic. Wait for 15 - 20 minutes before removing it. Thank god for the plastic, which enable me to walk around.

Overall it helps to moisturise my foot, especially my embarrassing dry and crack heels.

However you have to use it often if you want to see results.

Due to the condition of my extreme dry skin on my feet,

I have to go for a fortnightly pedicure session. >.<



Foodfare at Clementi Foodcourt

Went to Foodfare with my friends for dinner. Going out for dinner does not mean you have to spend loads of $$$ for food. There are times when we need to budget and yet able to indulge in delicious meals. =)

Families with kids will be happy to know that the new foodfare in Clementi Mall have a new foodfare kids menu. And for those who are a light eater, you can consider trying out their kids menu. =p

 However, for us big kids, we decided have our normal portion. =)

The food was great and the atmosphere there was not bad. I believe that the place have some renovation done since it was quite huge and cozy. For those who are on a budget, you can actually have your meals and drinks with your friends here instead of your usual fast food at McDs, Starbucks or Coffeebean. =p

Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic

How many of you seek a traditional Chinese medicine clinic for consultation? When I was a kid I used to see a sinseh for consultation. I was really sick and weak back then so my parent had consulted various doctors to cure me. 

I'm thankful that my parent did not force me to eat cockroach when I was young because I had heard stories that some kids were forced to eat them which claimed that it can heal them (=.=)"""

However, thank god my parent were able to find a doctor in time to cure me. Since then I have stick to western medicine.

I guess growing up my parent have the fear of traditional Chinese medicine, due to few of their friends / relatives having complication after consuming. One of them even ended in the hospital and her kidneys have complication ever since. 

Since coming to Singapore, I came to know about Bao Zhong Tang TCM Pte Ltd when they organised an event back in April 2011. Bao Zhong Tang (BZT) is a Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic located at Singapore General Hospital (SGH).

You can refer to their website: http://baozhongtang.com.sg/ for more details

On 18 April 2011, they launched an awareness and charity programme for 1 month to educate the public on the use of Chinese herbs medicine. They were selling sample herbs for $2 each and the sales of sample herbs and donation collected were donated to the SGH Needy Patient Funds.

I went to the clinic and I find the staff there are helpful and quite knowledgeable of the herbs that they have there. They explained the benefit use of Chinese herbs and explained that many consumer are not aware of the dosage and the usage of boiling the herbs. Overdose of some herbs can actually be harmful.

Brochures regarding the launch of their BZT's 3G [Good Manufacturing Practises (GMP), Good Dispensing Practices (GDP) and Good Clinical Practices (GCP)] were distributed for this event. 

It explained that GMP standards are to ensure the quality of chinese herbs. Qualified herbalists are to ensure the authenticity of herbs. Together with GCP, BZT provide advisory service on herbal recommendation and precautions during consumption by registered TCM physicians (GCP). This is to ensure the suitability of Chinese herbs for each individual because inappropriate use of herbal medicines can be harmful.

At the end, I got 3 sample herbs from the Clinic. Since I'm always in front of the computer screen (due to the nature of my job), wolfberry and chrysanthemum actually helps to aid my vision. I also got a packet of Ginseng which suppose to help my blood pressure and blood sugar.

Overall, I'm glad that I attended this event because my knowledge prior to the event about Chinese Medicine was limited. After this event I have to be more careful of what I consume when it comes to Chinese herbs. Do drop by at the clinic and check it out, I think it is quite useful to learn the benefit of Chinese herbs medicine.

Dinner Treat at 'The Mussel Guys' @ Vivocity



Last night my friend treats me at 'The Mussel Guys' located at HarbourFront Walk VivoCity. Decided to give this place a try instead of our usual Japan/Korean cuisine. =p





We actually overlook on this set...but it's worth trying out their other main course. 



 We were so hungry by the time we were seated that we find their menu looks yummy!



The atmosphere here is great. You can choose an indoor or an outdoor seating but eventually we were seated indoor since outdoor was full (and it is a smoking area too).

Our meal was served to us half an hour later. It was quite a long wait since the place was crowded.

We ordered Grilled Chicken Fillet. It comes with 3 pieces of chicken fillet, mashed potato and veggies. It is well grilled and it was juicy!

Next came Mussels Napolitana. It was delicious too!!!!

 Overall we have a wonderful experience. And best of all it was a treat from my dear friend. LOL. Anyway, if you are ever head to VivoCity, give this place a try.

I have plan to go back there again. (^_^)
