My girl's childcare center had a one day closure for next year's planning so I took leave from work today to spend time with her and to run some personal errands. We went back to my office for lunch and also to get my laptop. This was probably her third time coming to my office cafe and she loves it here. The food here is super nice and I get to enjoy staff discount till end of the year.

I participated in Eu Yan Sang's #NoToPlasticWithEU Instagram Challenge to be their Eco-Ambassador and I received a complimentary limited-edition Peter Rabbit™ lunchbox set worth $39.90 but the collection had to be done at the Eu Yan Sang Centre which is located at Tai Seng. So we took a MRT down to Paya Lebar and changed to Circle Line to Tai Seng and from Tai Seng we walked a good 15 minutes down to their Centre.

So happy to finally see that we've arrived at the building because the weather was scorching hot that day.
Rest and cool down ourselves while taking some photos inside. The reception area is quite big with a pantry behind.
Gotten the limited-edition Peter Rabbit™ lunchbox from Eu Yan Sang. This stylish bamboo fibre lunch box is made from environmentally sustainable materials and is a better alternative to plastic lunch box. The lunch box lid and cutlery are made from solid bamboo and the lunch box base is made of 45% bamboo fibre, 30% corn powder, 5% wood fibre, 19.5% melamine and 0.5% resin. It is free from phthalates, BPA and other harmful chemicals. Things to note is that this lunch box is not suitable to use in microwave and oven and only the base is dishwasher safe.
Next stop, we took a grab down to one of FedEx drop off location at Kaki Bukit Road, there's only two drop off locations in Singapore, one at 31 Kaki Bukit Road 3 #04-18/19, Techlink and the other would be at 1 Changi Business Park. Took a grab over as I did not wish to walk in the industrial area under the hot sun again.
This girl is getting heavier. The parcel I was supposed to drop off was actually dated 2020 when I won a CircleDNA Premium DNA test kit and I was supposed to swap and return my DNA swap for them to analyze. Can't believe I kept this for almost 2 years before I finally get everything done.
From Kaki Bukit, we took the bus journey to Bedok before taking a long bus 7 journey to Orchard Central. Had a dinner scheduled with my Primary school friend at 6.30pm at Kumoya.
We reached about 5.30pm and since we were early, we went to look for some dessert to eat. Found this Ooze by Whiskdom selling cookies , brownies and ice-cream, regretted not adding some ice cream to our chunky cookies as this can be a little dry.
I also went to the concierge area to get a power bank and cable for my iPhone battery is running low. Glad that they have this service where shoppers can loan the power bank with a deposit of $50 which is fully refundable when you return. I did brought my power bank out but forget to put in the cable.
Kumoya is a character themed cafe at Orchard Central with rotating themes every now and then. The current theme now features LINE FRIENDS x BT21 : My Little Buddy Cafe.
Mandatory photo at the entrance!
We ordered the Line Friends Iced Chocolate $12.90 which comes with whipped cream, mini sprinkles and a My Little Buddy Line Friend Straw Insert. My friend had the RJ and Koya Apple Momo Iced Tea $13.90 which is a refreshing apple flavoured tea with the Koya and RJ cup sleeves.
For our mains, we ordered the BT21 My Little Buddy Budae Jjigae $25.90. The ingredients are pre-set with kimchi soup broth which I find is quite diluted. My friend had the Sally and Choco Korean Chicken Stew $24.90 which is pretty cute with Sally turmeric Japanese rice face.
For sides, my girl wanted the Cheese Cheolpan $9.90 and Mozzarella Cheese Sticks $12.90 as she is such a big cheese lovers.
Had so much to catch up with my friend whom we meet like once in a year. From work to kids, thanks for sharing with me some tips and procedures on registering for Primary 1 which is something I have to go through next year.
We got two complimentary brand new coaster to bring home I think it comes with the drinks we ordered and I bought a Line Sally for my girl because it represent her as a cartoon character. Overall, the food here is very pricey. Once you ordered one drink, you won't even think to order a second round. I would say pay for the cuteness and pay for the experience if you are a big fan of the theme.
To avoid long waiting time, here's their reservation link and menu:
*Note: for online booking they requires a credit card to be put on reserve and stated that $40 will be deducted in case of no show. Once you've booked online, it's pretty hard to edit and change the date or time. I booked the day before and realised I booked the wrong timing so I had to make another booking instead. Went down to the shop to tell them to cancel the first booking so no charges is deducted through my card. Anyway, I used my Grab Card which might not have sufficient money for them to deduct.
XOXO
