The Sushi Bar @ Far East Plaza

Who would have guessed that there would be a hidden gem in Far East Plaza that serves up quality Japanese food that is so fresh, you literally taste the ocean. When I walked past the restaurant that is located in an inconspicuous corner on Level 3, I saw the chefs in the open kitchen busy […]

Thunder Tea Rice 擂茶 @ Lau Pa Sat Festival Market

When I was previously working at Raffles Quay, one of my colleagues recommended me to try this thunder tea rice stall. I remembered tasting thunder tea rice a very long time ago but didn’t have a great impression of it because the green coloured tea soup had a very strong flavour that I wasn’t too […]

Dragon-i Restaurant 笼的传人上海拉面小笼包 @ City Square, Johor Bahru

This is Part II of my food post from our recent day trip to Johor Bahru two weeks ago. Read Part I here. After spending the afternoon shopping at KSL City, we headed back to City Square to meet up with the parents who only then arrived in JB. They came here like previous years […]

Danro Japanese Hot Pot Buffet @ NEX, Serangoon

I felt a little turned off to write this blog post because it wasn’t a fully enjoyable dining experience for me and my family. Normally I don’t even start off my food review with such a comment. Read on to find out more. Craving for steamboat, I decided to bring the family to Danro Japanese […]

[CLOSED] Pizza Box @ City Square, Johor Bahru

The first time I heard about Pizza Box was when I read some raving reviews from a fellow blogger (thanks again Sam for the recommendation!) last week. And the reviews came at a perfect time as I was also planning a day out to JB with my husband so it became an unanimous decision to […]

The legendary Samurai Burger is back at McDonald’s!

Since my previous post on McDonald’s Rendang Beef Burger which I wasn’t too impressed with 2 months ago, I have been wishing for the Samurai Burger to return and now my wait is finally over. Watch the TV commercial here: A boring commercial this time. I’d still prefer a jolly jingle like the one in the earlier […]

Irodori Japanese Restaurant @ Riverview Hotel, Havelock Road

I have been to a number of Japanese buffet restaurants and I must say this is one of my preferred ones because it serves my favourite mekajiki (swordfish) sashimi that comes in thick cuts and always taste fresh and sweet. I have had bad experiences where the sashimi served were either slightly frozen (not properly […]

The Best Scones I’ve ever Eaten from Deli Cafe @ Stratford-upon-Avon, England

When I was recently blogging about Tea Lounge @ Regent Hotel where its scones are very popular with the locals, I was reminded of the best tea time experience I’ve ever had when I visited the birthplace of William Shakespeare at Stratford-upon-Avon. Getting a taste of olde England in Shakespeare’s hometown was something very surreal to me. […]

[CLOSED] Hai Bin Prawning @ Bishan

Prawn fishing has been a much enjoyed leisure activity for many in Singapore. The anticipation of landing a bite, the thrill of hooking a catch and the live grilling of your prized trophies at the end of the day are probably what make prawning a fun sport for people of all ages. Hai Bin @ […]

Harvest of the Sea Buffet Dinner @ Spices Cafe, Concorde Hotel

I had a sudden craving for crabs but couldn’t make up my mind on where to eat. Should we go for chilli crabs at Jumbo? Salted egg crabs at G7? Or butter crabs at Mellben? Finally the husband suggested to go somewhere new (so I can try and blog about it too) and he went […]

Fish Porridge @ Mr Teh Tarik, Ang Mo Kio Ave 5

Mr Teh Tarik Fish Porridge @ Blk 608 Ang Mo Kio Ave 5

I’m lucky to be living in an estate with hawker centres and coffee shops in close proximity 24/7. But it was also disappointing that there wasn’t any decent fish soup here until I chanced upon Mr Teh Tarik eating house at Blk 608 Ang Mo Kio Ave 5 (where Botak Jones used to be located) […]

Enjoying laksa and curry chicken rice @ 328 Katong Laksa, Queensway Shopping Centre

328 Katong Laksa @ Queensway Shopping Centre

My husband and I made a second trip down to Queensway Shopping Centre so he could buy that pair of Nike Dunk Low sneakers he had been eyeing since our last visit. But it was a wasted effort as that model he wanted was no longer in stock and we just couldn’t find it in […]

Weekend High Tea Buffet @ Tea Lounge, Regent Hotel

If you’ve read my earlier post on L’Espresso @ Goodwood Park Hotel, you’d know how much I had enjoyed my dining experience there. And it’s definitely double bliss, now that I have also found another high tea buffet that could be on par with L’Espresso’s. Tea Lounge at the Regent Singapore serves an eclectic mix […]

Prata Raya @ Ang Mo Kio Hub

I’m not sure if Prata Raya is a revamped version of Ah Mei Cafe that was located inside AMK Hub previously. Its menu is the same as Ah Mei’s and in fact, I’m quite certain the chefs are the same because the fish curry gravy and texture of their pratas resemble that of Ah Mei […]

[CLOSED] Shen Xi Soup 沈希老火湯 @ Foodfare, Khoo Teck Puat Hospital

[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 […]

McDonald’s McAloo Tikki, Curry Drumlets & Butterscotch Sundae

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 […]
