After the 1 day Deepavali public holiday yesterday, I have made plans for the next extended holiday to book a ticket to Genting. Why you may ask?? It is because I am raring to go for shopping at Genting First World Plaza.

Do you know that it is open from 10am-1am from 9 November onwards till 31st December 2012? That's like 15 hours non-stop shopping?? 

I usually do not do my work for prolonged hours but when you talk about shopping? You bet I can go with little food, drink and sleep simply because I eat, drink and breathe SHOPPING!

Call me a shopaholic if you must...I am destined to be one for life and what better place to shop than in First World Plaza Genting.

Ricciotti Food Tasting on 6 November 2012

Being a Nuffnang Glitterati+ member certainly has its perks! For instance, on 6 November 2012, I was invited to Ricciotti's newest branch at Star Vista. It has two other outlets at The Riverwalk(I was there for drinks with my friends on Sunday) and China Square.

Here are the dishes that I tasted:

STARTERS:

1)Caprese (Mozzarella cheese with tomatoes and fresh basil)

The basil goes well with the cheese, giving a delightful taste in the mouth.

2)Fritto Misto(Combination of suppli, calamari and pollo fritto) *MUST TRY*

The pollo fritto is the best among the 3 items in this dish and it certainly goes well with the mayonnaise provided.

3)Cozze (Fresh mussels with toasted garlic bread in marinara)*MY FAVOURITE MAIN*

The marinara sauce goes well with the fresh mussels and I ate it with glee as if they were picked fresh from the sea. No fishy smell and the toasted garlic bread complements it perfectly.

4)Caesar salad with chicken

A must order for an appetiser. The dish is enough to feed at least 3-4 people. I love the mashed potatoes and the baby carrots...

5)Garlic and anchovy pizza bread

The pizza bread was crispy but looked overburnt, had to remove the burnt parts but overall, the anchovies were plenty.

MAIN:
1)1.5kg grilled boneless whole chicken in Ricciotti's signature marinade *MUST-TRY*


There must be something special about Ricciotti's sauces because every dish with a sauce goes well with it.

2) 1.5kg diavola chicken in Ricciotti's spicy marinade

3)400g pork ribs in Ricciotti's own slow-cooked with glaze

4)Pizzotto(Bacon, eggs, cheese, pomodoro, mozzarella)

The best pizza among the ones I tried especially with the centred egg and bacon bits-two of my favourite ingredients in a pizza! I can have the whole pizza! *greedy*

5)Linguine Al Granchio(Linguine with crabmeat in creamy tomato sauce) *MY FAVOURITE MAIN*


Goodness! If you ever go to Ricciotti, you must order this main dish and you will have to taste it to find out why I say so! This dish leaves me speechless because it's so creamy and yummy linguine!

6)Pizza Margherita

7)Spaghetti Marinara

DESSERTS:

1)Soffiato *MY FAVOURITE DESSERT*

Soffiato is awesomely delectable and the vanilla ice-cream complements it very well. It is recommended to eat whilst it's straight from the oven.  2)Lemon Meringue

I never enjoyed sour stuff but this lemon meringue is sourishly sweet and I am sure people who dislike sour things will find this pleasant. 

3)Grandma's cake

4)Tiramisu *MUST-TRY*

Tiramisu in Italian means "pick me up" and I am sure once you pick it up to put into your mouth, you would not want to stop eating. It is a good dessert to share with someone special! *wink*

5)Garibaldi cheesecake

6)Chocolate brownie

The chocolate brownie was gone in the flash before I could take a proper photo of it and I suppose the photo says it all-it's so delicious that everyone grabbed a bite of it and I would say it's paired well with a cup of hot Italian chocolate and an Italian hunk! :)

7)Ricotta cake with strawberry jam

The Ricotta cake was a bit too sourish for my liking, nevertheless the strawberry jam made up for it-it's best eaten with the jam and the berries together.

Overall experience: 
Riciotti is the perfect place to have a meetup with family and friends and I might consider having my next birthday celebration there as they serve my favourite dish of mussels in marinara sauce! *yummy*

SHOP TILL YOU DROP AT RESORTS WORLD GENTING!!

What comes to mind when you think of Santa Claus, snow, reindeers and presents??

I think of Christmas season at Resorts World Genting and all the countless shopping I can do!!

I always minded the fact that all shops in Singapore always close at 9.30pm sharp, especially when I am contemplating over the latest Prada or Coach bag and the store just have to close its doors.

I am going to book a ticket to Resorts World Genting soon because from 9 November 2012 to 31 December 2012,  all the shops in First World Plaza will be open from 10am to 1am, there is no better time to do my Christmas shopping than now!

What lengths will I go to keep my favourite pet by my side forever?

I had quite a few pets but none is close to me than my pet rabbit which died 2 years ago. I buried it at  

the park near my home. However, if I could turn back time and have the exact same solution as young 

Victor who harnesses the power of science to bring his best friend back, I would definitely do all I can

and spend any amount of money. I will make sure that nobody stops me or prevents me and I will 

clone my pet by multiples to ensure that I am never lonely ever again.


I would bring it everywhere I go and keep it with me and feed it well and make sure that I would never

have to witness its death all over again. It will be with me through life as I find ways and means to

ensure its longevity and feed it with the best nutrients.


I am touched by young Victor's love for his best friend and I can associate with the same feeling.

How will I enjoy Genting if I was a celebrity?

First and foremost,if I were a celebrity, I would go for a 5D4N trip to Resort World Genting together with my awesome celebrity blogger friends like Beatricetan,Bunbunmakeuptips, Shiberty and Typicalben.

Once I am at Genting, I would head to Genting Shopping Centre located at Genting Hotel to buy some oversized sunglasses so that I can slide them on and smile like I am having the time of my life.

I will also shop for designer labels and accessories at First World Plaza for my clubbing party in the evening.

My make-up artist and stylist will ensure that I will have A-list hair and look fabulous before I step out of the hotel suite for the party.

For my hotel suite, I will also have a "diva" list like all celebrities do. For instance, must have extra pillows, my favourite lavender aromatherapy oil to help me sleep and tinted windows to avoid the paparazzi. 

Before I head out in the evening to the club(I am going to book the entire club for me and my friends to enjoy), I will ensure that my personal assistant personally invite my friends to party.

All expenses that evening at the party will be paid by me as I practice my autograph by signing my name off on the bill.

To end the evening with a bang, I will try my luck at the VIP room in the casino with my bodyguards to ensure that if I do strike the jackpot, I am safe from any mishaps.

The next morning, I will definitely be up and about to spend the day at Genting theme park with my fellow celebrity blogger friends, screaming my lungs out on the rides to sober up from the partying the night before.

To ensure nobody recognizes me, I will wear a prosthetic nose and throw on a jet black long hair wig(I currently sport short hair.) and accessorize myself with a out of shape straw hat and scarf and long boots to cover my supermodel legs in the cooling Genting weather.

To celebrate my happiness that I am in the company of such awesome good friends,for dinner that evening, I will dine at the VIP restaurant that is located at Highlands Hotel, Level 2. 

My friends and I will book a room while we savour signature dishes like tom yam prawns, green curry chicken, stir-fried prawns with buttermilk, shark's fin with spicy superior shark's fin bone stock in casserole, steamed marble goby with crispy ginger and garlic before finishing off with the exquisite dessert- Durian Tempura!
