Snogurt in Lakeside!

Oh!

What am I holding?!

It's SNOGURT!

Is not just a trend, is a new culture!

nom nom nom nom nom...... :)

Yes I was at the opening of a new shop in Lakeside call Snogurt where frozen yogurt can be found! Calling all health freak or weight cautious people, this is a place for you to hang out! This amazing desert is only 99% calories!

The founders of Snogurt were there too! I got the chance to speak to them because they nice enough to greet me when I walked in. Mr Yap and Mr Lau was friendly and funny which makes the whole convo light and not cocky. I even have friends re-tweet me and say that the bosses of snogurt are very friendly. :) Good sign.

What snoggy are you?

Many flavors are available in snogurt but in one day, they are only able to create 6 flavors due to the limitation of the machines. Though, those common favorite flavors will be consistent while some special flavors will be changed accoding to season. 

For the opening in Lakeside, the 6 flavors are:

 
 
 
 
 
 

Sweet or Sour? They have both!! Take a pick. 

Toppings Time!

 Don't LIE! I know you are tempted too!

As you can see, there's so many to choose from. One very obvious winning point is that their fruits and other toppings are extremely fresh! I remember picking strawberries and I am utmost impressed that ever strawberries are in perfect shape and condition. I had a glance over the peach area and is looking great as well! I am sure for most people, if the fruits do not look fresh, tendency you will not even reach out for it. I also like the fact that they took notice that many people loves Oreo cookies, it is one unavoidable topping. Thus, they had crushed oreo as well as oreo chunks prepared! PLUS POINT!!! 

JQ's Snoggy: The making...

When it's a hands on project, I am terrible at art. Thus, the thought of preparing a decent looking Snoggy is not my forte. So bear with me!

I was given a briefing before starting of with my not-so-creative fingers. It is actually very simple because everything you need to do is all listed in 4 simple steps on the wall. So here goes....

Step 1: Grab a cup of course!

Step 2: Choose your flavours and start filling your cups up! :D

Step 3: Choose your Toppings!

Step 4: Weigh it!

And Wah-La!!!!!!!

You got your fresh fat-free frozen yogurt dessert with amazing toppings done! Easy right?

Fun fact of Snogurt:

1. All ingredients are imported from Itally.
2. Very clean environment. (very cool hang out spot!)
3. Machines are cleaned twice a day. (one hour for each)
4. Staffs are friendly!
5. It's pink! (haha, this is just for me)

Tinsy-winsy update about me :)
being a bit narcissist.

Hey all,

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

So as you know, I had my Mirror's finals some time back. Just so you know, I had a great time even though I did not win. It's a great experience and great to help start building my portfolio! Of course also, the goodies. Hehe. I am still on break, looking for part time jobs relating to Fashion/ Entertainment/ Journalism opportunities. If you have one, let me know! Other than that, I'm spending my time at home, family, friends and love ones. Also, getting my hands on my new cooking and baking skill. I baked Heaven fully just chocolate chip cookies (nigella's recipe :P) for friends and family and cooked bacon carbonara and meatballs bolognese speghetti for Christmas Gathering. Awesome! Next up, I will be trying Caremel Croissant Pudding and Molten Lava Cake. hehe. Sounds delicious already.

Honestly, this is definitely not what I do every holidays. I usually work full time somewhere in this world and I mean literally 9-6 job. For me to take a step back this semester break and relax is something new and out of the ordinary. Also, for heaven sakes, I don't cook or bake, everyone knows that! I am definitely venturing out and being adventurous on trying new things.

and everybody loves my new hair cut!

That's all for now folks!
Heartz!
