#WHITE X #BLACK When nature meet the built form, when the intricate meet the monolithic, and when things just go against each other but yet create such a beautiful harmony A beautiful juxtaposition ▫️▪️ #kettleblack #facade #monochrome #victorian #kettleblackcafe (at The Kettle Black)

#1000POST X #ONLYMINECHOCOLATES It was like Valentine's all over again to receiving chocolates with letter from @onlyminechocolates and get a bit too excited playing and resisting myself from popping them into my mouth before I took photos of them 🍫 It is such a challenge as I have to make sure that my photo does do these beautiful tiny little chocolates justice because they are just so pretty and trust me, they taste as good as they look! My first two to try were definitely the Chai and Milk Chocolate as well as the Cookie and Cream. I am trying to stop myself as I am definitely gonna share this with my sister @onlyminechocolates are available online on their website as well as at South Melbourne Market at the @teadroptea store Handmade in Melbourne, with love! #eatwithGANDA #flatlays #onthetable #marble #onlymine #chocolate #GGeat

#WEEKEND X #LITTLEHENRI The nakedness and the rawness of the wall and the floor contrasted against the distressed quilted leather seats. Just a perfect balance between classy and grunge. Oh and those fancy Hans Wegner Elbow Chair Just one of the photogenic spots in Little Henri #interior #brunch #decoration #littlehenricafe #quilt #leather #hanswegner (at Little Henri)

#FIRSTOFMAY X #PERSPECTIVE Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small, And you don't ask the time of day But you and I, our love will never die, But guess we'll cry come first of May. Can't believe that May is here, time flies too fast Here's a view I missed from the trip last month to Ho Chi Minh City from the top of Bitexco Tower (at ビテクスコ・フィナンシャルタワー)

#KETTLEBLACK X #RICOTTAHOTCAKES To overcome my disappointment to my brunch earlier today, I would post this all time favourite from one of my favourite breakfast spot, @kettleblackcafe What a chance one does not have to wait for more than half an hour for a spot in this place, but I did! #callmelucky Beautiful to the eyes, beautiful to the tastebuds.

#WHITEMOJO X #DONUTS X #🍩 "donut say no to donuts" Initially planned to pay @longstoryshortcafe a visit with my #SCDAclans but realised that we will be running out of time for uni works with all the time spent on transport so we decided to give this newcomer in hardware lane a visit! The first impression that I got from @whitemojo is that it's so clean and white (combination of tiles, marble and timber palette), and also good amount of choices to choose from from the menu Seated away from the window and on laminated table that reflected the white lights definitely wasn't helpful in term of photographing the foods, but the taste was just ON POINT 👌🏻 Everything that we ordered turned out to be good! (we ordered the White Mojo Croissant Burger with Soft Shell Crab, Cauliflower Pannacotta, Salmon Tartare, and Zucchini Fritters) Good coffee and free flow of sparkling water ✨ (for those of you who enjoy some fancy water, rejoice!) And definitely couldn't help but to take picture of these donuts while on the cashier counter #eatwithGANDA #GGeat #brunch #melbourne #doughnuts (at White MOJO)

#LANTANA X #NATURESBEAUTY Why is it fall, yet all these flowers are telling me that it's spring.. 🌸 The beauty of these Lantana is where they are beautiful as a whole yet they are delicately beautiful as an individual #flowers #flowerstagram #canon

#ARCHIESALLDAY X #DIRTYEGGS X #CRACKLINGBURGER When we were young, we had Archie's to read, and when we grow up, we have Archie's to dine in Finally managed to get some times off from the uni hecticness and had some bonding time with dear sister whom I live with but definitely do not see enough #nocturnalproblems And talking about Archie's, those dirty eggs were just too delicious! The staff definitely did a good job recommending and the problem is when you have such an extensive menu to choose from, you ended up being indecisive and get yourself a fish burger! 😂 #eatwithGANDA #GGeat #flatlays #brunch #melbourne #fitzroy (at Archie's All Day)

#ALLDAYDONUTS X #FLATLAYS X #EATWITHGANDA Hang out with the bunch who photographed foods just as religiously, and this is where we ended up at. 🍩 Because it is just pure instagrammable! Doughnut has a really fluffy texture, and just like how they look, they were SCHWEET! A bit too sweet for my tongue but if you have a sweet tooth, maybe it would be purrfect! *nobody drink coffee with straw like that ☕️ #GGeat #pastel #donuts #doughnuts #melbourne (at All Day Donuts)

#NOIRDININGINTHEDARK X #EATWITHGANDA If you only have a day and only a place to eat when you are in Ho Chi Minh, go to Noir! I came across this unique restaurant with such interesting concept on tripadvisor and wondered if it was actually that good or just a hype. Nonetheless, I sent the link to my #VietnamSquad and surprisingly everyone was excited! So we went on the night itself, not knowing exactly what sort of experience we are after. (We did look at their website for some clues but trust me, these people are really good with keeping their secret) At first it looked like a tourist trap with barely or actually no local patrons seen anywhere around, but the tranquil and cozy ambiance just helped you to relax, and prepare you to experience something that you had never experienced before Dining in the Dark allowed us to appreciate foods better using other senses but visual. I truly appreciate this moment as it was that one moment I actually couldn't see how my foods look like, and how I am going to photograph them etc. It was also the very first time I sat on the table where nobody had their hands on their phone. It was that perfect dining situation.. Just without the light The visually impaired staffs did amazing job hosting us and accommodate to all our needs. It is true when they said when one sense is not being used, all the other senses get stronger, we could smell foods even before they reached our table, the concept of distance is distorted and man, our tastebuds definitely taste things better than we usually do. You could actually pick up the different textures of the different components of the foods etc 11 degustation dishes later, I still felt like I want more! Now, stop reading, go and book yourself a table and thank me later! #bestdiningexperience #dininginthedark #noir #GGeat #gggoestohochiminh #hochiminh #vietnam (at Noir Dining in the Dark)
