2 weeks, 3 cities, 3 weddings

Hi Darlings,

I know I've neglected this blog for the longest time. I'm giving it a faint try to relive the blog. But everytime I try to blog, there must be some craps *aherm...pardon* that happened (Mobile blog refused to save, baby fell sick, mad tired, my laptop died on me, list go on and on...) which stopped me to do so. But this time I told myself to brave it and to update as soon as I have the chance. It is a game on.

So, my most anticipated weeks of the year 2012 had passed. It was end of Sep to early Oct 2012. They were wedding weeks and for the bonus, I got to travel to attend the weddings. Hear me? It was HOLIDAY! (Theoretically it was, but bringing baby to travel along is not so much of Holiday definition)

In short, there were 3 weddings to attend. Started with Mery's wedding in Singapore on 30th Sep 2012. Followed by Ling's wedding in Jakarta on 7th Oct 2012. And lastly, Agnes's wedding in Bali on 9th Oct 2012. (YES, are my friends cool or what? They somehow, magically arrange their weddings to be so conveniently dated for me to wedding-hop from one wedding to another)

So the journey itself instantly added my miles accrual pretty fast. There were total 6 legs!!


Little Town -> Jakarta (For 1 night transit) -> Singapore (To attend Mery's wedding) -> Jakarta (To attend Ling's wedding) -> Bali  (To attend Agnes's wedding) -> Jakarta -> Little town

And now I'm back to the reality and will soon update the trips in details. Note to myself: Bali Trip comes first!

Till then, squeeze!!!!

Melbourne Food 1 - Pancake Parlour

I've been procrastinating to blog about this pancake heaven. The Man introduced me to this shop while we actually went to Melbourne Central to kill time. Conveniently located 3 storeys above the train station, no surprise it always catches the crowd.

When I look at the menu, it was full of variety and in some way confuse me. It took my addled brain two trips to roughly understand the menu there.



Menu taken from Pancake Parlour website

My first visit to Pancake Parlour was for Breakfast. What is better than waking up to a sumptuous breakfast in the morning!!
The cut off time for breakfast is 12pm! In fact we visited the shop by 11.45am...not so early. We placed the order by 12pm, and a cute waiter helped us to push the order into the kitchen, and YES, we got our breakfast

Wise choice for breakfast:


Farmer's Breakfast: 2 buttermilk pancakes, homemade
hashbrown, two free range eggs served any style, with
whipped butter and maple syrup *thumbs up*




















Earl Grey Tea - served with fresh hot milk!




















As for the 2nd visit, we reached there for DINNER!!! yay! The choice is still there for dinner. An indulgence in this shops with all the pancake choice.


Scotch Fillet Steak rested on buckwheat pancakes,
crowned with mushroom sauces....slurp!


















Original Lemon and Sugar Pancake for Sweet desserts!



















Overall, my own review, I DReAM about this place! I'm just loving it. It's something new, some concept that Singapore should have. I hardly find a good pancake place in Singapore. To sum up, this place is LOVELY!


JumpBeeMama Drools,

Melbourne, I miss you

A long hiatus since the last time I updated this blog. I was away to Melbourne for our pre-wedding photo. A pleasant trip. My guy has been raving about this city from the moment we chatted about holiday. Everytime he talks about Melbourne, his voice is full of passion, his eyes glitters (Okay, I'm exaggerating..LOL).

Melbourne says Hi.....

Basically, we waited very long for this trip. I'd been literally crossing out my calendar, day by day to the trip...and I must say, it's all worth the wait! To him, this is also another inaugural A380 trip. He's a big fans of aviation and flying A380 is big deal to him. For me, it's big deal too because A380 has bigger room for legs, even has extra lower cabinet for us to put our hand carry. *comfy comfy*

Melbourne, here we come!!

The extra space at the side

It's enough to cater for our handbag..that's spacious!

Yes, LV says Harlow too....

When we reached there, we were actually pretty jet-lagged and starved. So, my first meal in Melbourne was actually a lovely korean instant noodles prepared by my love. It's just simply stomach fulfilling and tasty.
Well, I have tons of photos to upload and tell you the Melbourne story...but meantime, stay tune to the next episodes because JumpBeeMama needs to rest....for my beautysleep!
I promise you! Be prepared for 'superyummyfoodyouwilldrool' episodes!

Hugs,
JumpBeeMama Jump!
