Sweet News: High 5 Pie Opening a Retail Bakery in Seattle!
This is a guest post from CakeSpy.
If you are foolish enough to think that Capitol Hill, Seattle can't get any sweeter--what with it being the home of Cupcake Royale, Bluebird Ice Cream, North Hill Bakery, Oddfellows Cafe, Molly Moon's, Old School Frozen Custard, and CakeSpy Shop (ok, figuratively at the latter, but still), and all--well, you are wrong.
'Cos guess what? High 5 Pie is opening a retail bakery on 12th Avenue. That's right: Dani Cone's pie genius will now be readily available at one wonderful place, seven days a week, with an expanded menu. Yes! More Here...

This is a guest post from CakeSpy.
Which would you like first? The good news or the bad news?
The good news: My Dough Girl Cookies, a bakery in Salt Lake City, makes amazingly delicious cookies. I mean, like, really good.

Dining out in Tokyo: L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon
I loveee Japanese long weekends... In Japan, we call the public holidays that fall on a Monday, "Happy Monday", and this name can't be more apt! On a recent Happy Monday that passed, we decided to celebrate this beautiful lazy long weekend with a yummy getaway at my favorite French restaurant in town. Did you know that Tokyo has more French restaurants with Michelin stars than French gourmet paradise Paris itself?! Of the lot, my heart goes to this Michelin two stars L'Atelier by the world famous chef Joel Robuchon. More Here...

Board Games Cafe in Singapore
This is a guest post from LadyIronChef.
While club and booze can make you high (temporarily), chilling out with good friends over board games are more satisfying to me. Maybe it’s just me getting old, but I really feel that when there’s no need to scream your head off just to ask your friend a simple question, it makes me happier already! I had a really good time hanging out with dweam and monoxious at Settlers Cafe. More Here...
