Haga and 2nd-hand shop

Yeah so yesterday actually we planned to have lunch at Haga, but we couldn't find a satisfying cafe to settle down in in terms of price and food, so we decided to go back to Saluhallen, the food market, for cheap and good food. Though the last time I was at Haga, Sis and I were actually quite satisfied with the food at a particular cafe. This was what we had that time:

Caesar Salad, SGD12.00

They were really generous in the serving, and the chicken too, it was really really tender and comes in real big pieces, unlike the Coffee Bean ones which can be rather tough sometimes. I don't think it had eggs though, can't remember.

Lunch buffet of lasagne, salad, soup and coffee, SGD12.00

I enjoyed my lunch as well. The broccoli soup was good, had a spicy tinge to it.

So yesterday we had lunch at Saluhallen again. A and R had the panbiff, which was meatballs and potatoes. More like meat patties really.


S and I had grown a bit scared of beef balls now so we chose the herring instead. Good choice!

Okay I forgot what it's called in Swedish, but it's herring. It may seem like they're just piled on top of one another, but the presentation was actually quite nice. For the meatball dish as well. The herring cost SGD 10.00 and I think the meatballs cost SGD 11.00. The herring was really fresh and I really liked it. Not the onions or the bread below though. Would've been great if it were mashed potatoes. A and R helped to polish off the onions, tomatoes and bread though, which is good.

Following that we went back to Haga, and we went to eat the famous gigantic cinnamon bun. This one:

Sis and I couldn't finish it. But four of us could!



After that A brought us to this 2nd-hand store which sells everything from clothes to bags to shoes to accessories and scarves and we loved it! Serene and Bev will probably like the bargains here too haha.

I love their vintage collection. They restock every Thursday so S and I were saying that we'll probably come every Thursday hahaha. Later in the afternoon we're going to visit another 2nd hand shop actually hehe.

This is our damage:

4 of us spent more than SGD 200 I think? Not too sure. I spent SGD 48 on that pink scarf you see (S$10, real thick and real long), a yellow cropped pullover (S$13), and a vintage handbag (that brown thing) that I have always wanted to get.
