Ikea is having their annual sales now, till the 22nd Aug.
so go grab ur new beds, sofas, tables and chairs while stock last!
i have no idea why is that place forever so packed...
makes me wonder if a certain population in Singapore doens't need to work and just spend their time shopping everyday... clogging up places of domestic interest... like Ikea!
well, i need a new Queen-sized bed and a new study table and 2 new chairs badly.
my own room is sparsely furnitured. looks terrible, sorta major store-room for all inhabitants of my house...
IKEA has really heavenly Chocolate Truffle cake! $2.60 per slice but i can gurantee you 101% satisfaction. it is not-so-sweet as all cakes are usually are, with a slight hint of rum and raisins, moist and soft, with 2 layers of chocolate mousse between. it's fantastic with a warm cup of Spinelli's Cappucino! eh, don't try their thin-plain tarts thou. tried a Marzipan Tart yesterday, was VERY sweet though unique almondy taste to it. =(
Main courses.... their poached Salmon comes with this weird tasting butter-chives sauce. the Salmon is not bad, so are the new potatoes, all soft and moist, but the sauce spoils everything... The Roast Beef seriously looks so good! but minus the fact that is it hard, hard to chew, hard to digest, it is okay... still can do. oh by the way! they have this Swedish meatballs made of minced beef and Danish pork! i think it is their star attraction! well, i have to admit that it looks really delicious! all round and brown, with thick gravy and potatoes. but i have to try it. when i had, i would definitely tag another of my food-reviews so keep yourself updated! soft drinks are $1 per small glass, i would give their coffee a skip despite the fact that they are freshly grounded brew... have free flow of water though!
IKEA restuarant-cafe has this evry Scandanavian home-sweet-home feel to it. nice place to hang out after window shopping for furniture, sit by the window and watch the traffic over a light refreshment, but bear in mind that you have to clear your own dishes after the meal =)
