One Fullerton has been a popular spot for dinning as the location houses many restaurants that offers waterfront view. Having been here for numerous times, I have never dine here before. It's time for me to uncover this area again.
OverEasy has an al fresco dining area which allows diners to oversee the view of Marina Bay skyline. However, due to the drizzling rain, the al fresco area was not opened up.
OverEasy brings a classic American diner experience in the heart of Singapore. The interior reflects a modern interpretation with the vibrant spirit of the 1960s and ‘70s of stateside. As the sign "Best burgers in Singapore" suggested, we know what to order for dinner. Met up with my friend, J, for dinner here.
I tried Our Famous Milkshake Oreo ($12++) which was one of the best oreo milkshake I had. The milkshake was rich in flavour, I could taste the oreo bits in every sip and it was accompanied with one oreo cookie on the top. I also like the concept of using metal straw which is more environmental friendly.
I had Buttermilk Fried Chicken Burger ($24++) for my main course. The burger was served with truffle fries. I was surprised by the huge chicken patty that was sandwiched in the middle of the bun. The fried chicken has an extremely crispy skin while the meat remained juicy.

I reserved my Friday night for Meryl's birthday celebration. I was worried that I might not be able to end work on time, hence I took half day off to play safe which proved to be a right move because I ended up finishing the work at 4pm.
Just when I was about to leave house, it started raining heavily. It seemed like everyone I went Funan Mall for bubble tea, it will rain.
Since there were some buffer time before Jas arrived. We went over to Gong Cha for bubble tea.
Gong Cha just launched 2 new drinks, Starry Fruit Party and Milk Foam Starry Peach. I opt for the latter, Milk Foam Starry Peach ($4) because I prefer a milky version. The freshly brewed Gong Cha tea was blended with peach, passionfruit and mango to create a zesty taste which was refreshing and thirst quenching. The milk added richness and enriched the taste, giving it a creamy, satisfying and not too sweet finish.
What makes this starry FruiTea special is the star-shaped jellies, it were so cute and made the drink even more addictive because I was trying to reach out to all the star jellies.
The 3 of us went over to Eventasty 一碗田 Noodle Bar to meet Jas, thanks Jas for getting us the shopback deal where the set meal (drink, side and main) only cost $9.90.
Since I had cold drink earlier, I had hot Green Tea to go with my meal. Something to warm me up from the rainy weather. For the main course, I opt for Sliced Chicken with Tomato Soup Base which strike a balance between the sweet and sour broth that made it so addictive. The broth was rich in flavour and comforting to have during rainy days.
I didn't realised that the main course will come with half a lava egg and I ordered lava egg for my side dish.
Thanks Meryl for the group photo.
Now weekdays dinner with friends have become a great deal to me since I have to work till at least 8pm every working day. Today was exception because I applied a half day leave in order to make it on time meeting the girls.
After the dinner, we walked over to Suntec City to find some place where we can chill out while GF headed back to office to settle some quick work issues.
GF got 2 muffins for Meryl.
Photo credits to Jas.
Happy birthday, Meryl.
May the wish you make will come true.

Due to the no more than 5 people policy of dining out, we held a mini birthday celebration for granny at home with only a few relatives invited.
We ordered Pizza Hut and tabao some food from food centre for the feast at home.
Pizza Hut was having promotion where we can get 2 pizzas at 50% off, so I also bought the pizza for Sis Vivien's family and my neighbour who always pamper our family with foodie.
What's birthday celebration without cake?
Sis got granny a durian cake.
Happy 81th birthday to granny.
Though this year celebration was not as grand as the previous years, it was definitely a cozy one.

Premium Immune Formula, 'ensoom' is the health supplement to reach for if you are looking to strengthen your immune system. This is just what I need during this pandemic crisis.
The product comes in a package of 10 sticks that is easy to store and consume. Just take 1 stick a day. The thick liquid texture contains 27 nutrients which includes Korean Red Ginseng.
The first taste that hits me is the notorious bitterness coming from the ginseng. I’m glad there is honey and royal jelly concentrate in it to help balance out the bitterness. It took me quite a few sips to get use to the taste. By the second or third stick, I was already used to the taste. If you are afraid of bitterness, you might want to mix the product with water to reduce the bitterness.
Thanks 0.8L Singapore for sending the supplement over to give my immune system a boost and allow my body to absorb the 27 nutrients in it.

Today was a cafe hopping day. Right after the food tasting at Qi Philosophy Cafe, I went down to meet another group of friend at Japan Rail Cafe located at Guoco Tower, Tanjong Pagar.
Japan Rail Cafe Singapore is the world’s first railway-themed cafe operated by JR East where the cafe provides JR Pass services, retail products, and a dining place that serves authentic Japanese cuisine, drinks, alcohol, and desserts.
I had Ice Kyoto Uji Matcha Latte. The matcha latte contained a strong and rich green tea fragrance, it was toppled with whipped cream which added sweetness to the bittersweet matcha taste.
I had Twin Flavored Crispy Chicken Don served with miso soup. Paired up the chicken namban with tartar sauce and Japanese grated radish for a balance meal.
I was feeling really full after the meal and need a walk to digest. We headed over to Garden By The Bay to view the mid autumn festival decorations. What we didn't expect was the crowds there, it was super crowded with people. It was definitely not a wise idea to come in contact with so many people.
The decorations have scaled down a lot this year. Nevertheless, it still attracted the large crowds to Garden By The Bay even on a drizzling day.
There was also a stretch of different designs of rat decorations.
I just took photo of one of these designs because I wanted to fasten my pace to seek shelter.
Now that September has come to an end, I am dragging October because it was be another tough month. Jiayou.
