Gyoza-Ya @ Robinsons Orchard – For Delicious Cheese and Mentaiko Dumplings

Orchard Road may be one of the best shopping streets in Singapore but do you also know you can find a great selection of Japanese restaurants here that offer some of the best gyozas in town? From Gyoza no Ohsho (Cuppage Plaza), Ramen Santouka (Cuppage Terrace) and Uma Uma Ramen (Forum The Shopping Mall) to […]

Genki Sushi @ Bugis Plus – Sushi on a bullet train

Genki Sushi is a pioneer of conveyor belt sushi and is also one of the largest sushi restaurant chains in Japan. I had dined at Genki Sushi a couple of times back in the mid-to-late 2000s when it had outlets at Marina Square and Forum The Shopping Mall. It didn’t leave a lasting impression on […]

Itacho Sushi (Revisit)

I jumped on the Itacho Sushi bandwagon only less than 2 years ago. Before that, I wouldn’t even consider myself a huge fan of mass-market sushi brands because the quality of food could be (and still are) quite inconsistent at times even though prices were on the rise due to inflation. But so far my previous […]

Takagi Ramen @ Ang Mo Kio Central – Bringing affordable ramen to the heartlands

Seriously, I would never expect to see authentic Japanese ramen being served in a coffeeshop located at ground level of a HDB flat in Ang Mo Kio. J and I were supposed to have our lunch from Astons Express at the same coffeeshop but we changed our mind after we spotted this new ramen stall. […]

Sushiro @ Thomson Plaza – Wallet-Friendly Bara Chirashi Don in Singapore

I was craving for sashimi and thought I would check out this little humble Japanese eatery at Thomson Plaza after hearing some raving reviews from fellow foodies about their possibly ‘cheapest in Singapore’ bara chirashi dons. If you aren’t familiar with Thomson Plaza, it might be a bit tricky to locate Sushiro just by looking […]

Weekend Seafood Dinner Buffet @ J65, Hotel Jen Tanglin Singapore

One year ago, this restaurant was still known as Cafebiz. It was where my family and I would often go for weekend high tea when I was a teen. Today, it has been renamed as J65 which is inspired by the Singapore international dialling code. This vibrant all-day dining restaurant located at the lobby level […]

Shin Minori Japanese Restaurant @ UE Square (1-for-1 Buffet with The Entertainer App)

It has been almost 5 years since my last visit to Shin Minori (click on the link to read my past review). When I saw that it was a participating merchant on The Entertainer App, I just had to ask J to join me for a 1-for-1 lunch buffet (U.P. S$34++ per pax) that worked out […]

Japanese Charcoal Grill at Washoku GOEN @ VivoCity

Not long ago, I had reviewed Udon Goen @ Wisma Atria where I swooned over its value-for-money and ginormous Japanese Chicken Katsu Curry Rice that was tasty and so-very-satisfying. This time round, I was invited to Washoku Goen @ VivoCity for a tasting session to try out its sumibiyaki (means charcoal grill in Japanese) which […]

Udon Goen @ Wisma Atria

The husband and I were doing some shopping at Wisma Atria when suddenly he just recalled this Instagram picture that I showed him the other day – it was a post from a fellow blogger who was recommending this new Japanese stall at Wisma Atria’s Food Republic that served up a humongous portion of curry […]

Just Acia @ Sembawang Shopping Centre

I have probably walked past this casual Asian restaurant umpteen times whenever I head to Sembawang Shopping Centre as it’s just located outside Daiso and Esprit on the ground level. My folks had been here several times previously and they’d always rave about the free-flow ice cream which seemed to be the only highlight of […]

Weekend brunch buffet @ Cafebiz, Hotel Jen Tanglin Singapore

Update: Cafebiz is now known as J65. Goodbye Traders. Hello Jen. If you’ve not heard about the news, well, the former Traders Hotel on Cuscaden Road had been rebranded as Hotel Jen Tanglin Singapore (not to be confused with Hotel Jen Orchardgateway Singapore) since September last year. The old Traders Hotel had been one of […]

A Long Long Lunch @ Edge, Pan Pacific Hotel

My love for Singapore food is probably beyond imagination, lol. When I had to travel frequently for business in a previous job, the one thing that I’d always miss was our char kway teow, bak chor mee, chicken rice and the like because these local eats are simply a myriad of flavours, aromas, sights and sounds that are not only appetising but […]

Koh Grill & Sushi Bar @ Wisma Atria

For those who had been to Food Republic on Level 4 of Wisma Atria, you probably would have come across Koh Grill & Sushi Bar, a Japanese restaurant that always seemed so busy and packed with patrons. I’d long heard about the highly raved restaurant especially its signature ‘shiok maki’ of which I often see pictures […]

Chef Yamashita @ Tanjong Pagar Plaza

When I heard that Chef Masataka Yamashita, the former head chef of Flor Patisserie and Patisserie Glace had opened his own cakery a few months back, I just had to come by to check out his signature cakes and sweet treats. The moment I entered the shop, I was just wowed by the beautiful display of […]

A romantic dinner by the Singapore River

I initially posted this pic on my instagram and was giving a brief description of what this was all about. Somehow, it ended like a poem that rhymed, lol. A romantic dinner need not be one with candlelights Having bentos by the Singapore River is just right Great atmosphere with a gorgeous sight Bliss and […]

Itacho Sushi @ Bedok Mall – Awesome Salmon Spring Rolls!

I’m a weird foodie sometimes. While I like to explore new eating places and experience new foods, I also have the tendency to revisit a restaurant several times within a short period of time just because I really like it. It happened to me again recently after I visited Sushi Express at Citylink Mall for the 3rd […]
