Burrito Boys @ HillV2 Mall (Upper Bukit Timah Road)

Now that Downtown Line 2 has begun operation, it is so much easier to get to places that I don’t normally go due to transport hassle that would require me to make several changes of buses from where I live. I never did frequent Upper Bukit Timah area much because it’s just so out of the […]

Humble Beginnings Cafe @ City Square, Johor Bahru

Every time the husband and I walked past Humble Beginnings at JB City Square, we kept saying to ourselves that we would come back for their mille crepes next time but it never did happen. So at our last JB exploration trip when we came back to JB Sentral from AEON Bukit Indah, we immediately […]

Canton-i @ City Square, Johor Bahru

Since my last visit to Dragon-i where I had a pretty satisfying dinner with the family, the husband and I had been waiting for an opportunity to come back to try its sister restaurant, Canton-i. While Dragon-i offers Shanghainese specialties like xiao long bao and la mian, Canton-i specialises in Hong Kong/Cantonese dishes like wontons, roast duck, barbecued […]

A&W @ AEON Bukit Indah, Johor Bahru

A&W, you are dearly missed. Please come back to Singapore soon. Since A&W’s exit from Singapore in 2003, I’m sure many Singaporeans like myself who had grown up with one of our favourite childhood fast food chains must be craving for its root beer floats, waffles, coney dogs and curly fries for a long time. Though they […]

Tart Blanc @ Millenia Walk

It’s time for tea at Tart Blanc, which is a little tart specialty cafe that serves up an array of artisanal desserts/pastries (tarts, cookies & macarons), gourmet sandwiches & wraps and fresh brews of coffee/tea. A cosy space with just 10 seats, this place is perfect for that leisurely afternoon tea and/or whenever you need […]

[No Longer Available] Teochew Porridge Buffet @ Gim Tim Restaurant

Update February 2023: Gim Tim is no longer offering this Teochew Porridge Buffet. Whenever I crave for a porridge meal, I would head to either Quality Hotel Marlow or Orchard Grand Court for their porridge buffet as I like their variety of dishes. When I heard that one of my favourite Chinese restaurants in Ang […]

Salad Bar Buffet @ Bistro 1855, Suntec City

After having a salad buffet at Javier’s Rotisserie & Salad Bar which was like my first in a considerable lapse of time since the Ponderosa and Sizzler days, it had certainly fuelled my passion for salad buffets again like the good old times. It just makes me feel good (yeah, psychologically haha) that I’m consuming […]

[CLOSED] Cafe Mojito @ Ang Mo Kio Ave 1

Update: This cafe has ceased operation. After a leisurely walk at Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park, the husband and I chanced upon Cafe Mojito that was located just across the road so in we went to grab some tea time refreshments. They had a small selection of cakes and pastries on display… …as well as some […]

[Closed] Rainbow Cottage @ Ang Mo Kio

Update: This cafe has ceased operations. I hate rainy weather but it makes me smile when I catch sight of a rainbow after the rain. Similarly, the cafe name ‘Rainbow Cottage’ really appeals to me because it sounds so cheery. The girlfriend and I decided to head to this small and cosy cafe for a […]

Citrus By The Pool @ Woodlands Swimming Complex

Sep 2017 update: For my latest review on Citrus By The Pool, check out this post and see what’s new on the menu. I come to Woodlands quite often but have never ventured beyond Causeway Point and Woodlands Civic Centre. Even when looking out for food options, I tend to only confine my search within […]

Nasi Padang Buffet at Muslim Delights @ The Grassroots’ Club

I came by The Grassroots’ Club a few weeks back when I had a lunch appointment at Imperial Court and happened to stumble upon the newly opened Muslim Delights Wedding Venue & Restaurant located on the ground floor and right at the back of the clubhouse. Muslim Delights actually started out as a stall selling […]

Peranakan Buffet at Sun’s Cafe @ Hotel Grand Pacific

Happy Halloween! ??? ??? Though we don’t celebrate Halloween in Singapore, I like to do it my way by hiding underneath the bed covers and getting myself spooked ? with a horror movie marathon, woo! How are you celebrating Halloween at your side of the world? 🙂 The husband bought a Groupon deal (yes, again!) […]

Double Scoops – Artisan gelato in the heart of Ang Mo Kio

I love anything with yam so when I heard that Double Scoops in Ang Mo Kio serves up Orh Nee (‘yam paste’) ice cream, I just had to come by for a little treat. And I had this little fellow as company cos’ we were just next to each other by the wall. How cute, […]

Korean Biscuits from Young Yang Confectionery

Popped over to Seoul Mart at HillV2 to collect these biscuits which I got off Qoo10 and I thought I would share a review on them because they were quite unique in terms of flavour and taste. Each 65g pack retailed at S$9.90. These biscuits from Young Yang Confectionary Co. Ltd first caught my attention […]

Day and Night Bistro @ Tiong Bahru

This place was formerly known as Two Face Pizza & Taproom but it closed last December after two years in business. Now, Day and Night runs on the same concept – it is a regular coffee shop that houses Ah Bong’s Italian and also serves up local favourites like yong tau foo by day; it then […]
