"The new F&B outlet allows patrons to customise their own seafood bucket by choosing crabs, prawns, mussels or clams, and flavours to cook it with, such as marmite, cream cheese, laksa and spicy tomato."







So many photos to post from our @whollycrabsg opening ceremony. Many many people to thank. Thank you all who came down today, sent me encouraging texts and notes and for all the beautiful flowers. F&B is a business I want to dabble in as I love food!! @whollycrabsg is trying to make seafood more affordable and have fun eating too! My heart is filled with gratefulness and thankfulness but most of all I have learnt a lot from doing a small business like @themamashopsg and now @whollycrabsg . Passion is very impt with whatever we do and that's why I have opened a second shop/stall. Without my family and friends who continuously support me and send me flowers even if it's my second attempt, I'm forever grateful. Thank you @tap_amu for coming in full force and always being there for me. So many people to thank; still a small fry but I'm just trying something new something different. Acting is always my passion but learning is my way of life. Thank you everyone for your support! Come by @whollycrabsg Stall 17 at #sataybythebay for a fun way of eating seafood with a local twist.💛 Thank you for your love❤️🙏🙏

Felicia Chin Cafe





Sora Ma & Felicia Chin have joined forces to open a new cafe in Singapore.


http://instagram.com/p/u5Zrqrj1CI/?modal=true


Besides their busy acting careers, the 2 Mediacorp actresses are now officially "towkays".  The pair are both 30 years of age (Year 2014)


Cleverly coined "The Mama Shop", the local eatery's name will bring back memories for those who used to frequent their neighborhood all-in-one shop that housed candy, tikum, newpapers, magazines, basic groceries, bric-a-brac.



Therefore it comes has no surprise that the cafe has a laidback, retro theme. Old school lounge chair and metal thin cookie boxes adorn the shop, bringing about a feel-good, yesteryear vibe.





Location:
The Mama Shop, 195 Pearl’s Hill Terrace
+65 9168 2258



Here's a quick look at the local media coverage of their shop's opening:

"Items on the menu are priced from $3.90 to $14.90 and include burgers and Malaysian-style drinks such as sparkling Limau, a lime juice drink which Chin fell in love with while filming in Ipoh and Penang..."

"They spent a low five-figure sum to start the venture, reports The Straits Times. Chin, 30, said: "We feel that it's a catchy name that can evoke happy childhood memories."

""Some friends ask why we chose this 'god-forsaken' place, as they call it, but we believe people will travel for the food and ambience," she said with a laugh."

Excerpt:
"If you don’t drink champagne, or find that the $118++ Champagne Brunch is too pricey, you may choose the normal Dim Sum brunch buffet at $48++ per head. Note that the dim sum brunch (without champagne) comes with endless flow of dim sum, but only one order of soup, appetizer, main course and dessert per person, which is available for two seating: from 11am to 1 pm. and from 1.30pm to 3 pm. While the Champagne dim sum brunch has essentially the same menu plus champagne, and the fact that there’s endless flow of everything, and you can feast from 12 noon to 3pm."
