You know how sometimes you buy something–such as a new knife–and you whip it out thinking that it’s sharp but you never really know how sharp it is until you do a paper test and it just goes __shhhrrrrrkkkkk__ with the paper just giving up and submitting to the will of the knife and you… Continue reading Hezhen 6.8 inch Nakiri knife

Nassim Hill Bakery Bistro Bar
Every so often, commoners like me and The Girlfriend dream of dining at a posh place.

Dinner At A&W Jewel Changi Airport
