[Update 08/06/14: Outlet is now closed. Please click on their website below for other locations islandwide.] These days, I frequent KTPH so regularly that it is almost becoming a hangout place for me as it’s where my ailing parents have been heading to for medical consultations & treatments. Even I also see a urologist there […]
Saturday nights (or rather Sundays’ wee hours in the morning) are normally spent by doing grocery shopping at the 24-hour NTUC FairPrice near us and at the same time, this greedy duo will have a late night supper too. Yesterday, we decided on McDonald’s as the husband wanted to try their latest new burger. McDonald’s […]
If brunch equals to breakfast plus lunch, then high tea should be lunch plus dinner. That is why I adore high teas! And L’Espresso would be my ultimate choice for an ‘elegant teatime pursuit’ that exudes pure indulgence in a modern English, sophisticated setting. The English Afternoon Tea Buffet at L’Espresso is available daily with […]
I remembered I was first introduced to Pu Tien several years back by my ‘PK mum’ (an endearing term for a friend who calls me PK aka Pumpkin) as she was raving about its Lor Mee. In my mind, Lor Mee has always been a bowl of thick flat yellow noodles in a thick, dark […]
When I was working at Raffles Place before, Yomenya Goemon at Marina Bay Link Mall was one of my favourite places to have lunch. Since a colleague greatly recommended me this place, it has become the only spaghetti house I go to now whenever I need a pasta fix. Yomenya Goemon opened its doors in […]
Woohoo!!! Definitely the best news ever for donut fans like me! I have waited 9 years for this day! It’s probably not a big deal to some of you because Krispy Kreme is probably readily available at where you live but for Singapore, this is truly a milestone as the donut industry here will finally be […]
The husband wanted to go Queensway Shopping Centre to hunt for his Nike Dunk Low Sneakers but to no avail so we ended up in McDonald’s for tea and shared their newest Rendang Burger set. Double Beef Rendang Burger with Medium Fries & Small Coke When I opened the paper packaging of the burger, I […]
I’ve been wanting to try Monster Curry for quite a while but whenever I pass by one, the long queue just puts me off. I finally got the chance to one weekday before the peak lunch hour. Monster Curry claims to be the biggest and heaviest Japanese Curry Rice in Singapore. Probably yes because it’s […]
I felt absolutely gutted that I didn’t get a last chance to dine at Zhou’s Kitchen before it made its exit from Singapore last week. I’m sure my mother would be equally disappointed too because we had enjoyed their value-for-money weekday high tea buffets in the past whenever we had to go TTSH for her […]
Ever since the last time I dined at Blue Garden Korean BBQ Restaurant (read my review here) when I felt a little disappointed that there weren’t any beef short ribs, I decided to continue my hunt for another authentic Korean bbq place that could be the one. I love all sorts of Korean food and their […]
Located just a stone’s throw away from the ever popular Tiong Bahru market, this artisan bakery is not to be missed. I first heard of its name when I read about it in the Sunday Times and on a couple of food blogs too and I just had to ask the husband to grab some of […]
I used to think of Chinese traditional desserts as plain sugary soups with (possibly) miserable portions of ingredients (I’m not kidding – have you ever tried red bean or green bean soup that’s full of water but so little beans?) until I chanced upon Dessert Hut in Chinatown one day while out shopping with my […]
One of my favourite places for fish head curry in Singapore will have to be The Banana Leaf Apolo at Race Course Road. This was recommended by my college mate almost a decade ago when we then brought one of our American lecturers here for dinner and since then I have fallen in love with […]
One of my corporate gift vendors recently recommended me to a Japanese restaurant at Cuppage Plaza and I decided to head over to check out the restaurant until I spotted this small Japanese style Chinese food eatery at the side entrance area that was full house. While stealing a glance at the dishes that these […]
Original flavour ($1.50 each) A colleague recently recommended me to Lao Ban Soya Beancurd when we headed to Old Airport Road Market and one taste of the beancurd completely changed my mindset about what this dessert is all about. Needless to say, I had been thinking of this since the last time I had it […]
Sunday is best spent with a good brunch coupled with a laid-back and tranquil setting. Given Singapore is such a concrete jungle, it is rather rare to find a place that fits the bill. I first heard of Spruce from a colleague and decided to head over for a lazy weekend brunch with my good […]
