驾车找吃路- Driving, Food Scouting Escapade with Alle

it is a Lazy Saturday afternoon, the Best time to meet up with a friend for a relaxing Brunch/High tea Session.
We decided to go on a 驾车找吃路 food scouting Escapade as my birthday meet-up event since Alle has the keys to a car and control behind the wheels.
Riders Cafe@ Saddle club and PS Cafe@ Dempsey is on my list.

1st stop-> Saddle Club.
depart from: Hougang Street 22 -> head along ..... Bt Timah Road.... Okay we got lost! we drove around for an Hour before we manage to reach there.
Haha, we tickled ourselves with the Irony at our lost of directions for driving and enjoyed the Catching up conversation we had on board the hour ride.

The driveway in, starts transporting us into another country. By the time the car came to a halt, we WERE in another country.
A country-side feel overwhelms us with amazement that such a place even exists in a Bustling City.

How lucky were we, it was full house when we stepped in, but just moments later, an empty Balcony table for 2 was made avail by the departing guests.

love their simple creativity of sketching a Horseshoe for their Coasters

my dear Friend Alle@ the Balcony Seating.

We made it in time for their Lunch menu. Food was G-O-O-D! (will comment abt the food on my food blog when im free)

it was a great seating which gave visual accessibility to a view of the Horses

After having our lunch@ Rider's Cafe, our attention was caught by a group of Expats having a Birthday party. Their cheerful voices led us to Mimolette.

oh boy~, i love the decor and Ambience of Mimolette, this goes on my next Chill-out List ;)

We both tunefully agreed on exploring the area.
Hello was greeted to us by the sign;

It was than Nice to meet you, *flashing a friendly smile* by the tree in a tone of pink

and "This way Please" Guiding us the way,

with a briefing on its History

the times when Hostility was Strong and Windows were Shut

to the times when the doors and windows were opened once again to Hospitality

they greeted us Goodbye, See you again

=========================================
2nd stop-> Dempsey
Depart from Bukit Timah Road-> Farrer Road-> Holland Road, arriving at Harding Road.

Colourful Parrots mock at us as we were being led by the signage that point us to a round about detour. Desperation and sweat was clearly reflected on our faces.
