Daily Chicken has opened at Waterway Point, taking over the old Tiong Bahru Bakery space. I was excited because their Bugis Junction outlet has been on my list forever, and now I don’t need to travel to town. Daily Chicken is a family-friendly Korean restaurant by the team behind Daily Beer. They specialise in Korean […]
Chez Léon was on my to-eat list the moment I arrived in Brussels. Really wanted to try a traditional Belgian meal and this place kept popping up everywhere when I did my research. Established in 1893, this family-owned spot is best known for its mussels and frites. No fancy concept, just good Belgian food done […]
Galet was literally next door to our hotel in Brussels. We spotted it on day one whilst exploring the area – just a minute’s walk away. Perfect for a breakfast stop one morning. The Coffee at Galet We went for a regular coffee (€3) and a Macchiato (€4.80). Right off the bat, both were pretty […]
We were wandering around Brussels when we spotted this long queue snaking outside Fritland. Classic sign of good food, right? Problem was, we’d just smashed a heavy lunch and honestly couldn’t stomach more food at that point. Mental note made: come back later when the queue dies down. Which we did. Can I just say, […]
You can’t visit Brussels without trying their waffles, right? That’s what everyone says. So when I was hunting for waffle places on Google, Maison Dandoy kept showing up everywhere. We decided to check it out ourselves. The setup is pretty straightforward. Ground floor has the retail boutique if you’re just grabbing products to go. But […]
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. My husband and I first tried two puffs here and loved them so much, we returned for lunch and packed a box for tea time. Five Flavours, All Winners What The Puff! offers five […]
So I was accompanying my husband for his physio session at East Coast, and once he was done, we were both starving. Did a quick Google search for lunch spots nearby and Bites & Brews popped up. 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 […]
Cafe 2000 at M Hotel Singapore was our pick for a quick catchup with the folks before hubby and I jetted off to Western Australia. We’d been here before and shared our experience because the buffet menu caters perfectly to my parents’ fussy tastebuds. Plus, the live BBQ is a solid bonus. Festive Dinner Menu […]
We were on a mini staycation at Mercure ICON Singapore City Centre on Club Street, and honestly… how could we not swing by Messina when it’s literally right next door? The moment we walked in, we were greeted by the friendliest staff who encouraged us to sample anything we liked. No pressure, no rush — […]
Hubby and I were planning a one-night staycation at Mercure ICON Singapore City Centre. We needed lunch before checking in, and since we hadn’t had Korean BBQ in ages, a quick Google search brought up Danji Korean BBQ Buffet. Made a reservation and off we went. First Impressions at Danji Korean BBQ Buffet The warm […]
