During this short hiatus from food blogging, the sisters have been thinking a lot. When we started this blog 6 months ago, it brought us so much happiness and joy as we went around hunting for the best food in town. But as time goes by, we faced challenges, challenges that we never imagine before.

Berrylite to the rescue!
We always like to top our yogurt with crunchy, nutty granola instead of fruits.
Berrylite's yogurt was sweeter, icier and it melted pretty quickly too!

We settled down in the little shop, waiting to be served. Without any hesitation, A ordered her Roast Duck Drumstick Noodle ($6) delightfully.
