The Hunger Games - Mocking Jay Part 1 [Movie Review]



Guess many of you were looking forward to this blockbuster Sequel
THE HUNGER GAMES : MOCKING JAY PART 1

Thank you so much to Cathay, the CNOS people and I got to watch it first hand at the Gala Premiere!


* Missing selfies with Huixin; Vivian; Shufeng; *
It was a super long time since we last met and it was good seeing them again!!



Okay, back to the movie review.



The movie was somewhat boring due to the lack of action/fighting scenes going on compared to the previous few sequels of The Hunger Games that had jammed packed action to keep us captivated.

I wouldn't agree with many that said it was disappointing cause somehow it allows the audience to have a build up to the next sequel (Mocking Jay Part 2). The movie had a certain extend of humour (as usual), and quite a few touching moments in there.

One of my favorite moments (in every movie too) is when they salute to Katniss.
This is probably the most touching scene in every of the sequel.


That aside, there are some new characters introduced during this sequel!
And amongst all, THIS LADY CAUGHT MY ATTENTION!!


CRESSIDA
(Natalie Dormer)

SHE IS SO HOT



And there's this really funny part of Mocking Jay


You'll get to see Effie Trinket in normal outfits (cell clothings lol)
No heavy make up, no fanciful dresses, no atas desserts for her!!

HAHAHA.

It's actually quite funny to see her in this form!!


I shan't reveal too much, you guys have to catch it to know what went on!
The movie might not be as good as the first 2 and it'll leave you a few unanswered questions at the end of the movie (if you don't read the book, like me) but it makes you crave for the final movie to be out!!

P.S. I kinda hate this episode a lot (as much as how I hated twilight) cause it makes me really angst to see how Katniss gets indecisive of her feelings and "love" both Peeta AND Gale.
ESPECIALLY WHEN GALE WAS SO NICE TO HER AND EVEN GAVE IN TO ALL THE DRAMA SHE HAD TO PUT (TO KISS PEETA AND STUFF DURING THE GAMES) AND STILL LOVE HER AND WANT HER AND (*#&$(*@&&%)%@#



SO GO WATCH IT NOW!
It's out in the theatres already!!


And you get any Combo set from Cathay, you'd receive this MOCKINGJAY badge!!




(Yes I cut bangs, don't judge)

ZE-Bakery by ZEE&ELLE

Sponsored Advertorial

I'm so so so honored and glad that ZE Bakery agreed to sponsoring for Mr Wan's 21st.
And I got to say, they've got one of the best handmade pastries I've ever ate.

As mentioned in previous post, Mr Wan's birthday was around the theme of "Pokémon"
So, Elle (Lady boss of ZE Bakery) agreed to making the pastries along that theme!
It was a really good and meticulous effort made to customize these pastries to fit in the kiddy theme, but they did an awesome job for it!


Take a look at my dessert table!!


What I really really love about them is their effort for the details.


Now at the party, guests had to go through the tough decision on selecting their 1st pokémon again!


Earl Grey Cheesecake



Red Velvet Cupcakes & Earl Grey Lavender Cupcakes



One of my favourite of the night, 
Pokéball Macarons, with green tea filling  



And last but never least, introducing my favorite of them all,


SALTED CARAMEL CHOCOLATE TARTS

Noticed how dedicate they were? 
Even the Food labels were printed to suit the theme!!



This is really the best Salted Caramel Chocolate Tart I've ever ate.
It's so good that I crave for it every now and then, I went back to purchase from them a few times already!



Come on, look at that Salted Caramel
It'll just ooze in your mouth once you take a bite on those tarts.

If not for my weak throat condition, 
I'd really love have this for breakfast and high tea every single day!



Once again, I'm really thankful to ZE Bakery 
(by ZEE & ELLE - they're a couple~ hehe)

Thank you for the lovely pastries that satisfied the guests' sweet tooth that night!


Do check them out!!
**Pssst, they recently run a food blog by themselves**




P.S. I'm craving for those tarts now T_T
