SHIMBASHI SOBA

Work has been really really busy this whole week. But in the midst of it, I still manage to get some good lunch in between. Awesome~ After meeting up with a client in Serangoon, I chanced upon a little treasure in the Japanese Gourmet Town in NEX shopping mall.

SHIMBASHI SOBA
NEX Shopping Mall, 23 Serangoon Central, #B1-02, +65 6634 4786
Operating hours: 11:00am -10:00pm
Awesome chill powder
Instead of normal green tea, they serve roasted green tea. Which is also known as Hojicha. ME LIKE!!!
Oyako Don Set $17.90
Warm handmade Soba (changed from the initial chilled Soba)
Chicken with Scrambled Egg Rice Bowl
Prawn Salad with Sesame dressing
(The prawns are really fresh & juicy, matched with the sesame dressing. Mama mia~)
Mini Seiro Set $18.90
Mentai Salmon Rice Bowl
(Love this salmon, chargrilled salmon with slightly burnt taste topped with their mayonnaise sauce. YUMMY!!)
Minced Chicken in Teriyaki sauce
Chilled handmade Soba with dipping sauce
(Being a fan of chilled soba, I find this really chewy & appetizing. However, would be better if they can be served more chilled.)

Went during lunch time & there wasn't a crowd at all. Cosy quiet place & you don't feel pressurized to finish your meal in a hurry, unlike other food places during lunch hour. What's more, they serve yummy japanese food with reasonable set meal prices. *thumb up*

Mendis Aesthetics - Exilis

[sponsored]

August has been a hectic month for me so far. Embarked on a new career journey, yet at the same time still continuing my wedding planning job. Nevertheless, I still made time to make a trip down to visit my aesthetic sponsor. Just ended my last session with them last week & I must say that I am quite please with the result!

The treatment I was sponsored is known as 'Exilis'. It is a revoluntionary, non-invasive, all in one system of treatment utilizing a sophisticated combination of focused radio frequency waves, thermal energy, ultrasound technology to redefine your appearance by smoothing wrinkles, treating skin laxity and reshaping the body - from head to toe - in just four comfortable treatment sessions! It is especially suitable for treatment of the eye area, around the mouth, chin area, jaw line, decollete, abdomen, back, arms, legs, knees and ankles. Exilis is a fast, painless procedure that gives you optimal, long-lasting effects; gently re-contouring your face while it visibly rejuvenates, smooths, and tightens the skin - all with no surgery or downtime at all.
Personally, I feel the treatment is really comfortable. Warm comfy non-painful treatment, which takes only a rough half an hour. Consulted Dr Rohan during my first visit & he decided to focus on my thigh area. Oh well, I dont deny I have BIG thighs. Hope I will have long slim thighs after the treatments. Haha!!

The sweet staff who always calls me 2 days in advance about my appointment, *thumb up*

I am also very lucky to be sponsored two sessions of their Transdermal Therapy, a facial treatment. I only did facial once in my life during my pageant days, yes ONCE. So I am actually quite excited to know how this will turn out to be. Will blogged about it again when I am done with the treatment
