Rempah by Chilli Padi at Anchorvale Village wasn’t our first choice for dinner. After a pickleball session, we wandered around the hawker centre upstairs. Nothing excited us. We headed to the basement where NTUC FairPrice sits. That’s when we spotted Rempah by Chilli Padi, with diners happily working through plates of nasi lemak and noodles. […]

Marlow’s Deli caught me completely off guard during one of my East Coast wanderings. Hubby’s been doing physio in the area, so I’ve been exploring lunch spots while waiting around. Googled for options and this place popped up. As a proper bread person who lives for sandwiches, I had to check it out. From Wooly’s […]

The Saigon caught us on one of those days when we were properly sick of our usual Punggol haunts. You know the feeling – same old kopitiams, same old hawker centres, same old everything. A quick Google search led us to this Vietnamese stall tucked inside Foodgle Coffeeshop at 308C Punggol Walk, just five minutes […]

What The Puff! at Punggol Coast Hawker Centre serves curry puffs that’ll make you travel across Singapore just for a bite.

Figured we’d give it a shot. First Impressions We visited during Halloween, so the place was decked out […]

Dong Bei Ren Jia 东北人家 came into my life through my husband, who’d been sneaking off there with his colleagues for Chinese dishes and beer sessions. He’d bring home takeaways from this spot, and honestly, I was hooked from the first bite. After checking out from our weekend staycation at Mercure ICON Singapore City Centre, […]

Last time I passed by Pretty Good Muffins at Hong Lim Complex during peak lunch hours, the queue was ridiculously long. Made a mental note to return, and finally got my chance during a mini staycation at Mercure ICON Singapore City Centre. Showed up Saturday morning around 10.40am, even though they’re meant to open at […]

Heng Heng Ondeh Ondeh & Tapioca Cake has been my husband’s go-to spot for 15 years. Back when he worked near Maxwell Market, he’d grab their kueh during lunch for office tea breaks. They’d often sell out before closing time. COVID hit, work-from-home started, and we stopped visiting for ages. One Saturday morning, we wandered […]
