Up on the Hill

Where to hold your office Christmas party this year

If you don’t want to venture too far from the CDB, consider trekking up to the revitalised Duxton Hill and give these new restaurants a shot.

Sabio Tapas Bar and Restaurant

With its stylish black and white setup, unpretentious vibe and infectious energy, it’s hard not to be won over by Sabio, run by the same team behind L’Entrecote. It’s a compact set-up so head to the alfresco seating area and order up a mixed platter of luscious jamon, sausages and cheese and wash it down with some red sangria. Bueno!

  Buyan Russian Haute Cuisine and Caviar Bar

Most Singaporeans’ knowledge of Russian cuisine doesn’t extend beyond vodka – which is why Buyan is probably the best place to start. The dark wood paneling, subtle hints of red and gold, and atmospheric lighting made us feel like we were in the former Soviet Republic. Start at the bar to sample some of the 50 different types of vodka - including flavours such as chilli and cherry. One you’re ready for food, the iPad menus prove most helpful when choosing between a kachapuri and gloubtsy.

It's the Weekend, Remember Me?

Reconnect with the bright side of life with these yummy new hangouts

If you're usually left wondering where the weekend went come Monday morning, you need to put those precious 48 hours to better use. And what better place to start than with this week's gastronomic openings: My Lovebites

There are cookies and there is Lovebites. Much loved by magazine editors, owner Olivia Lim started baking at home as a stress reliever but in a few short years, she has turned her hobby into a thriving business along Joo Chiat Road. Her signature sea salt caramel cookies are the stand out - crisp biscuit with an oozy caramel centre and the right pinch of salt. We also loved her Double D chocolate cookies which packed quite a cocoa wallop. With Christmas just around the corner, these cookies make great gifts for colleagues (and bosses *hint hint*) or will look right at home on your table for Chinese New Year. My Lovebites

Christmas orders to be in by Dec 13

The Bank Bar and Bistro

Don't be deceived by its fancy name - the Bank has all the pretensions of a good ol' 'pub around the corner and that's no surprise, given that the owner was the former manager at Harry's Boat Quay With its easygoing vibe, tasteful interiors and an extensive drinks selection, the Bank is fast becoming a favorite amongst the  CBD types. And even if you're not a drinker, the food is worth coming for at lunch - we had one of the best Cobb salads in Singapore here, which was just what we needed to get through the rest of the day. We love The incredibly more-ish Cobb salad, crisp waffle fries with an addictive tomato mustard dip and the calamari with beer and vodka infused batter. Go during happy Hour when glasses of house wine go for $9 a pop.

KL's Steamy New Sites

Scream with pleasure at these new Moorish baths

When was the last time someone properly bathed you, from head to toe? if you're anything like us, then probably not since age five.

On a recent weekend trip up to KL, FTM rediscovered the guilty (and ahem, sensual) pleasure of having someone thoroughly scrub us down, thanks to a mushrooming of Turkish baths, or Hammams, offering the traditional bath ritual.

The Hammam treatment which is similar to having a full body scrub at your normal spa retreat, has a twist to it - the scrub session is performed in a hararet – a hot steamy bath-room made completely of heated marble..

The entire treatment starts with a proper bath followed by a scrub using a special exfoliating glove to remove layers of dead skin and dirt. It’s topped off with a soothing body masque and after the final dousing, your skin and your body is left decidedly cleaner and healthier. – all without you having to lift a finger

According to Sherazade, a town is incomplete without a Hammam. After going to one, we can see why.

 Hammam

Located at the top floor of Bangsar Village II, Hammam is the first traditional Moroccan version of the Turkish Bath in Asia. The place oozes exotic Middle Eastern charm and is easy imagine yourself in a genteel Moroccan courtyard.

Choose from a luxuriant range of Spa treatments and packages, ranging from Hammams, to Aromatic Massage to Facials.

We love:

The Favourite Concubine Treatment comprising of a Hammam, followed by a blissful 45 minute massage using argan oil. Best part is, you are free to relax in the lounge post-treatment, while enjoying some hot mint tea and baklava.

Hammam

Lot 3F-7

3rd floor, Bangsar Village II

  Hammam Minfe

Stepping into Hammam Minfes would instantly transport you into the living room of a warm Turkish home.  Tastefully adorned with Turkish decorations and craft, its lack of pretention provides a rustic relaxing ambience.

We love:

Argan oil everything, from the soap to the argan-infused shampoo and the massage oil

For the Love of (Sea)Food

It's Monday morning and in true FTM style, we're already making plans for the weekend. This week, we're craving seafood and whether for date night or girls' night, we've got it covered.

Luke's Oyster Bar and Chop House

With its high ceilings, black-and-white theme, (piped-in) jazz music and polite, uniformed wait staff, it's not difficult to succumb to the Old World charms of Luke's. It gets even more difficult when the oysters and champagne are served up - which makes it the perfect spot to woo your date in our book.

Located off Club Street along Gemmill Lane, Luke's is chef Travis Maseiro's (ex Wine Garage and Spruce) spin on the all-American classic experience that is reminiscent of a stylish yet unpretentious New York bar. Luke's is also open till late on Friday and Saturday nights which gives you a great excuse to stretch that date well into the night.

We love: The oysters, home-made corn bread and jumbo lump crab cakes.Oh and the chops aren't bad either – try the kurobuta pork chops or the tenderloin au poivre

Luke's Oyster Bar and Chop House 20 Gemmill Lane www.lukes.com.sg

Todai

With an 82 metre buffet line and an extensive all-night Happy Hour beer and sake menu, Todai at Marina Bay Sands is the place for those who love extensive spreads – in this case, ourselves.

Touted as an upscale buffet, Todai has 40 outlets across Asia and Singapore is the first Southeast Asian country that the Korean company has opened an outlet in.

Pick at rows of salads, pastas (they have their very own pasta station), pizzas, ramen and udon soup but save your stomach for the seafood spread, in particular, the snow crab and freshly shucked oysters.

We love:

It's worth coming here for the snow crab alone - firm, meaty and with the natural sweetness and taste of the sea. Order up an aglio olio and peel some of these babies over it for a poshed up pasta! The dessert section also had the most amazing mango pudding and chocolate tart.

Let's Take It Outside

It's Monday and the four walls of your cubicle are already getting too much. A change in scenery is just what you need – this week, FTM brings you a list of cafes around town that offer free wifi so you can work remotely. Girl, just grab your laptop and go!

Black Cafe

Fans of Melbourne's coffee joints rejoice! With its relaxed atmosphere, cozy seating and smooth flat whites, you could be forgiven for thinking you've stepped right into a cafe in Fitzroy. Responding to those pesky emails seem easier to bear when you can sip your coffee and watch those Raffles Place hotties go by.

We love:

Creamy flat whites, piccolo lattes, green tea lattes, crisp ginger cookies and rich red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting.

Black Cafe

16 Collyer Quay #01-11/12 Hitachi Tower

111 Somerset Road, #01-13 Triple One Somerset

Urban Bites

Don't be deceived by the seemingly modern name – Urban Bites serves up authentic Lebanese food along Telok Ayer Street thanks to chef and native Lebanese Georges Khanashat at the helm. Come here at lunch for a sharwarma or kebabs and stretch it out well into the early evening with baklawa and strong Turkish coffee to keep you going.

We love:

Grilled haloumi cheese and sharwarma with a french fry right in the middle – we're convinced that's what makes it taste so good!

Urban Bites

Veganburg

Flipping soya patties on buns with a side of seaweed fries and spinach wheatgrass juice are exactly what the folks at Veganburg do as they churn out order after order of organic fast food. Located along Jalan Eunos, Veganburg is bright, spacious and the friendly staff don't chase you away. Its relative distance from the CBD also means you're less likely to be spotted by anyone from work.

We love:

For the burgers, we loved the chargrilled satay and tangy tartar. The potato and spinach pops and vegan franks were also great starters. Most of all, we love the fact that they are serving quality organic food at a very reasonable price.

Rev Up Wind Down

Laugh at the F-1 zoo from these lush hideouts

It's that time of the year again – Road closures, traffic diversions and general mayhem. You know the Formula One circus has hit town when the entire Esplanade/Civic District/Marina Square area is in lockdown and threatens to put the skids on your weekend plans.

Don't put those plans on hold – just take them further afield with FTM's hangout picks for the week.

Wild Oats at Punggol Park

Love Wild Oats@Mount Emily but can't bear the trek into town? Restauranteur/chef Wilin Low takes his local-favourites-with-a-twist formula into the heartlands with his new venture, Wild Oats@Punggol.

Nestled in the leafy Punggol Park is a chic 300 seater cafe/bar overlooking the Punggol Park pond where you can indulge in souped-up favorites like instant noodles with chicken wings and sambal fish with mashed potatoes. Pair it up with your beverage of choice from the bar.

We love:

Luncheon meat fries (we *heart* spam) and the 'heartland' prices with main courses ranging from $8-$20.

Wild Oats

Punggol Park, Hougang Ave 8

www.wildrocket.com.sg

Eight Lido

A little more than a hop, skip and jump across the Causeway is Eight Lido, a swanky bar in JB that's right by the sea and shaking up what is quite possibly the most potent range of cocktails this side of the Straits.

Just under two months old, Eight Lido will soon open its kitchen for all-day dining on September 21 but in the meantime, you can look foward to chilling out in relative seclusion armed with cocktails at half of what you pay for in the Lion City – just the tonic after a frazzled week.

We love:

Besides the cheaper booze, we're enjoying looking out at Singapore for a change, as opposed to our neighbours.

Luxe Living for Less

As the saying goes, there is no place like home and there's probably nothing better than kicking back in your own private sanctuary.

This week, FTM is all about sprucing up our living space and we bring you two great furniture stores where you can snap up a few key pieces, at an affordable price, to create something quite special in your own home.

Lush

Located in Paya Lebar, Lush houses a thoughtful selection of contemporary designs. Most of the pieces are either handpicked by the owners or designed by their crack in-house team.

We love:

Lush's reproductions of the Modern Classics such as the Herman Miller Eames Lounger (the geunine article is part of NYC MOMA's permanent collection), Eero Aarnio's Ball and Bubble Chair and Arne Jacobsen's Swan Chair.

Lush

73 Upper Paya Lebar Road #02-02 Centro Bianco

Tel: 6858 5882

Spruce Furniture

If you're leaning towards lovingly restored pieces with a twist, pop down to Spruce, tucked in the Bali Lane and a few doors down from Blu Jazz Cafe. Co-run by a local lifestyle journalist and friends, Spruce can also help breathe new life into your existing furniture with a nip and tuck or a complete overhaul – all for less than a king's ransom.

We love:

Weathered dining set in pastel hues, a Denim armchair and a two-seater Art Deco sofa  - we could totally see ourselves sinking into this after a long Monday!

Far From the Madding Crowd: Koh Kood, Thailand

In a country which welcomes more than 14 million visitors a year, one would be hard pressed to find a quiet, unspoilt holiday spot in Thailand where one could do, well, absolutely nothing.

But lo and behold, we did.

Approximately three hundred kilometres east of Bangkok, near the Thai-Cambodian border, lies the small island of Koh Kood, home to rainforests, idyllic fishing villages, and fewer than 2,000 inhabitants.

Koh Kood's great advantage is its relative remoteness – far from the giddy Bangkok and amidst the clear blue waters of the Gulf of Siam, white sandy beaches and warm tranquility, Koh Kood is a fine place to do nothing and simply embrace the slow calm and unruffled way of life.

There's plenty of the warm and graceful hospitality synonymous with Thailand to be found on this island, not to mention some of the freshest seafood we've had in a long time.

FTM lets you in on where to stay and what you could do (assuming you manage to pull yourself away from lying by the beach all afternoon) on this deliciously remote island:

Where to stay

Tinkerbell Resort

The quirkily-named Tinkerbell is a quietly luxurious resort with a cluster of spacious beachside and pool villas overlooking a bay. Spend the afternoon by the resort's private beach soaking up the sun and feel your mind slowly unwind.

We love:

The resort's very own private beach, When FTM was there, we had the beach all to ourselves. Bliss.

www.tinkerbellresort.com

Shantaa

A step up in luxury, Shantaa features 10 private villas sit on a hillside, with a simple stylish bedroom, a balcony and an open-air bathroom

We love:

The resort's family-owned restaurant offers what may be the island's best Thai dishes with a twist, such as raw sea bass salad with peanut sauce. What is arguably the best chocolate cake on the island can also be found here – which is makes it a winner in our book.

www.shantaakohkood.com

Soneva Kiri

Exclusive and expensive, the super swanky villa-suites only Six Senses resort is tucked amidst acres of forest. Guests fly in by private plane, have their own personal valet (a Mr or Miss Friday) and all-day access to an ice-cream parlour, the chocolate room and a gourmet room the finest cheeses and cold cuts.

We love:

The exquisite Six Senses spa for a relaxing open-air massage and The View restaurant for a meal with a stunning view of the Gulf of Siam.

www.sixsenses.com./sonevakiri

When to Go and how to get there

The best time is from October to May when the weather is spectacular.

Take a 40 minute flight from Bangkok to Trat, followed by a car ride to the ferry port and an approximate one-hour speedboat trip to the island.

Getting Eggs-cited in Bangkok

Sunday brunch is an essential part of any urban dweller’s weekend routine. So when FTM recently left the Lion City behind and headed for the Land of Smiles for a short break, we wanted to suss out where the good people in Bangkok get their fix. Thanks to recommendations from the locals, we bring you our top three finds for the best breakfast food in town. 

Roast

Tucked in the trendy neighbourhood of Thong Lor (the local version of Holland V) Roast offers exceptional brews of coffee and some exciting breakfast offerings, including a hard-to-come-by fatty and delicious duck hash (a stir fry of duck fat, potatoes, carmelized onions, garlic and herbs) that accompanies most of their brunch options. Or you could just order a side of it for B60. 

We love:

The simple, but potent slow-cooked baked egg with a side of duck hash (B180), looks small but leaves the waistline with little room to breathe by the end of it.

2/F, Seenspace, Thong Lor Soi 13, 089-697-5697.

Serves breakfast daily 10am-10:30pm

            Hyde and Seek

This well-known nighttime hangout famed for its cocktails, big dinners and model-perfect crowd also does brunch on Saturdays and Sundays. Coming on an empty stomach is the best way to enjoy their calorie-unconscious brunches.

We love:

Eggs benedict, except their version comes with a rarely-seen lobster Hollandaise sauce, caramelized thick-cut bacon and brioche toast (B250).

Ask for maple syrup on the side – the taste sensation is pretty earth-shattering. We also love their carafes of breakfast booze like sangria (B200) and bellini (B380). The cute bartenders are also willing to customize cocktails if you prefer.

1/F, Athenee Residence, Soi Ruam Rudee, 02-168-5152.

Serves breakfast Sat 11am-6pm; Sun 11-1am

  Gastro 1/6

Housed in the RMA Institute is an idyllic, outdoor hangout that offers an honest-to-god brunch of solid coffees, a small selection of egg dishes and a list of lunch specials.

We love:

Spanish tortilla with Iberico ham, a rich, creamy omelet topped with thin slices of salty, chewy ham. We also loved the toast from popular French bakery Le Blanc which makes sticking to a gluten-free diet almost impossible.

RMA Institute, 238 Soi Sai Namthip 2, Sukhumvit Soi 22.

Serves breakfast Tue-Sun 10am-3pm

The (Self)Improvement Issue

Let's face it: You're sick of being told to "think outside the box" while trying to tiptoe within the lines of office politics.

So maybe you've resolved to try your hand at something new, but inevitably find yourself stumped for what to do when the weekend rolls around.

You then find yourself fighting the crowds at the neighborhood mall while wondering about what great fun you might have missed out on.

Hours later, you emerge empty-handed...drained from long bathroom queues and throngs of screaming children in said mall.  

No fear, for change is near. To get the ball rolling, we've compiled a list of activities you can try your (artfully-manicured) hand at. Fun loves company, so bring a friend or date to these  brilliant new activities.

Have a sweet week ahead,

Miss FTM

The Networking Issue

The do-gooder in us reaches for the metal tin, but sometimes it is hard to feel that our little contribution is of any significance to the world's most vexing problems.

This is why we've started to top one of our favourite activities (mid-week cocktails) with a karmic garnish.

This week's noteworthy networking event is for a cause close to our hearts. Let's face it, education is the only reason why we're able to pen a blog on ways to escape corporate angst.

Join us and let's toast to better karmic returns this year!

Have a sweet week ahead,

The Eastern Eats Issue

They say the sun rises in the East. By midweek, we're just praying we get out of the cubicle in time to see it set.

So get your tired mind in a sunny state this weekend and dine at these two sparkly new restaurants int he East. You'll be spoiled for choice at the the Big Bad Wolf and Zaffron Kitchen.

Who knows, that  much needed relaxation time will spur an even better week after!

Eat, Drink, Man, Woman

The lowdown on the latest grub hotspots

Unlike Red Riding Hood, we have little to fear when the Big Bad Wolf set up shop in the heart of Tanjong Katong Road. With promises of serving up “the best food in the hood”, the friendly gastropub offers classy pub grub such as the Works Burger, an all beef patty sinfully topped with a fried egg, crispy bacon and cheese; slow-braised lamb in Guinness stout and English pork sausages and mash – best washed down with its tap beers Hoegaarden and Stella Artois.

Countdown to the weekend mid week with Big Bad Wolf's Hoegaarden Wednesdays (pints go for $8) and end with its Stella Sundays, where pints go for $7.

Things get spicier further down the road with the trendy Indian local, Zaffron Kitchen, the newest kid on the East Coast Road block. Tuck into its signature Mutton Rogan Josh, a mildy spiced lamb curry, and Chicken Chettinad, a fiery chicken curry. Mop up the gravy up with the unusual Lachna Paratha, a layered flatbread made with wholemeal flour or Dhania Paratha which comes with coriander seeds.

Zaffron Kitchen also serves up an all-day breakfast set and a high tea set with samosas, dosais, vadais and idlis – perfect for satisfying that spicy craving anytime of the day.

Have a Drink, Help Someone Read

Meeting new people over a drink or two is always fun but it's even better when it's for a good cause!

As Nelson Mandela once said, education is the most powerful weapon that one can use to change the world. Room to Read is an American non-profit organisation that aims to help children in developing nations break out of the poverty cycle through education.

Co-founded by John Wood and Erin Ganju, Room to Read was founded in 2000 and the organisation works in collaboration with local communities to develop literacy skills and a habit of reading among primary school children through a network of libraries and schools, local language children’s books and a girls education program, to help ensure that these children have the skills and support needed to complete their secondary education.

In more than a decade, Room to Read has since reached out to more than 5 million children in Asia and Africa, with the aim of reaching10 million children by 2015.

The Singapore Chapter of Room to Read takes off this week with a social evening this Wednesday, July 27, at Zsofi where you'll get to meet co-founder Erin Ganju who's in town just for the evening and find out how you can play a part in helping to level the playing field for less privileged children.

You'll also get to meet like-minded young professionals like yourself with one-for-one drinks promotions till 8:30pm. See you there!
