Seafood (Octopus & Swordfish) Ceviche Recipe

Ceviche (say seh-bee-tcheh) is a dish typically made from fresh raw fish cured in citrus juices like lemon or lime. And because the fish is not cooked with any heat, it is recommended to use only good quality sashimi-standard types of fish when you’re preparing this. I had leftovers of swordfish and octopus which I […]

[Closed] Todai International Cuisine, Seafood & Sushi Buffet Restaurant @ Marina Bay Sands

Update: This restaurant is no longer in operation. I can’t believe I took so long to blog about Todai even though I’ve been here like four times. The first time was when the husband decided to try out his first ever eating challenge at the Todai Spicy Sushi Roll Competition. He won the challenge and […]

Buffet Town International Seafood, Mixed Grill & Teppanyaki @ Raffles City

It was 8 o’clock in the evening and the husband and I were roaming everywhere in Raffles City, undecided on where to have our dinner till we chanced upon Buffet Town that was bustling with life (and noise) inside. A peep into the restaurant through the glass window, I saw piles of chilled crayfish, oysters […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

Kiseki Japanese Buffet Restaurant Part 2 @ Heeren (Former Location)

Seafood! What?! Kiseki again??? Yes, it’s my second time to Kiseki within a span of one week! Never ever done such a thing before :p but the parents were too captivated by the earlier Kiseki pictures so I just had to bring them here this time which wasn’t a bad thing too as I could […]

Kiseki Japanese Buffet Restaurant @ Heeren (Former Location)

The hunt for good affordable Japanese buffets continues. Since my past expeditions to Shin Minori and Kuishin Bo, which failed to tickle my fussy palates, I’m now here to conquer Kiseki which I heard is very popular among students and families. In fact, I was quite impressed with the prices for a Japanese restaurant located […]

Sushi Tei @ Raffles City Shopping Centre

The very first time I was recommended Sushi Tei by an ex-GM, I recalled we dined at this outlet where I enjoyed sitting at the counter, watching the sushi chefs at work while indulging in some of the freshest sashimi you can find. I really like the entrance platform concept and the restaurant itself is […]

Shin Minori Japanese Restaurant

We were deciding between Ikoi, Irodori, Kiseki and Shin Minori for Jap buffet. As there weren’t many online reviews on the latter, we chose Shin Minori so we could blog about it as well. At 12.30pm, there wasn’t any other customer in sight except us. In fact, the whole of UE Square seemed pretty quiet. […]

Melt the World Cafe @ Mandarin Oriental Hotel

A much anticipated night after seeing all the reviews and hearing the hoo-has about this buffet place. Very unfortunately and much to our dismay, we probably arrived with such high expectations that we left with even greater disappointment and even felt the money spent was so not worth it at all. Spending $16 on still […]

Sun with Moon Japanese Dining & Cafe – Part 2

Whenever I meet up with my college mate, G, we’d end up having dinner at Sun with Moon so now I consider this restaurant ‘our favourite haunt’. But of course, its food quality is good, that’s why I wouldn’t mind coming back again and again. They are having a special promo now and are giving […]

At $88.00++ per pax, you will get to enjoy oysters of different nationalities from France to New Zealand to […]

Sun with Moon Japanese Dining & Cafe

One ex-colleague introduced me to Sun with Moon. I had always thought this was a upmarket Japanese dining place and even though the restaurant ambience did look posh, the prices were still affordable for good authentic Japanese food. Sashimi Mori (2 pax) The waitress mistook our order and gave us Sashimi Mori for 2 persons […]
