If you’ve been to Adam Road Food Centre, you’d probably have noticed the endlessly long queue for their nasi lemak. Selera Rasa has won numerous accolades and awards for being the best nasi lemak stall in Singapore and till today, I still think their nasi lemak has consistently maintained its high standard. Its second outlet […]

In Part 1 of this post (click here to read), I had reviewed NamNam Noodle Bar’s Vietnamese pho. While the pho was good and worth returning for, what got me hooked are their Banh Mi or toasted baguettes stuffed with savoury meats, pate, mayo, chilli peppers, pickled carrots, daikon, cucumber and coriander. It is incredible […]

I love soupy noodles and Vietnamese pho (soupy rice flour noodles) is just one of my favourites especially when I crave for something piping hot yet light on the palates. I’ve had good ones in Viet restaurants in the States and my mother-in-law makes really good pho too so I am quite particular when it […]

This is the third time I am reviewing Rive Gauche because it’s really one of the few patisseries in Singapore that I go to frequently for my sugar fix. Read my previous review here. This time round, the husband brought home these two delightful treats to cheer me up as I was feeling a little […]

Those residing in Ang Mo Kio are probably very familiar with this popular carrot cake stall at the hawker centre in Ang Mo Kio Central that only sells the white crispy version. It is located next to my favourite drinks stall (read my previous review here) that serves up one of the best home-made ice […]

Palais Renaissance in Orchard Road is probably on one of the less busy stretches of the area. I only frequented this particular place during my school days in the 90s when I was working part time at a Brit company located in Orchard Towers and the office manager would sometimes treat me to lunch at […]

Whenever I chance upon a NYDC, I’d get reminded of an old classmate who really loved dining there that she’d always order the same baked rice, same pizza and same mudpie every time. This was more than 10 years ago when there was a NYDC outlet at Suntec City so it became one of our […]

When I last blogged about the palmier I had from Galicier Confectionery (read the post here), I made a comment that the one from Marks and Spencer Bakery was much better so when I dropped by Wheelock Place earlier, I decided to grab some bakes to go. In the beginning when M&S had revamped its flagship […]

I actually thought I had already blogged about Senso Ristorante earlier but I’ve only just realised that these pictures have been sitting in my backlog. And I forgot all about them until my friend, Pinky mentioned to me about her unpleasant dining experience there with her boyfriend so this post might come a little belated but […]

Every time the Prosperity Burger is back, it just means Chinese New Year is round the corner again. And indeed, this year’s CNY comes early in end January. I couldn’t remember if I did try the Prosperity Burger before even though it had existed for quite a number of years but since it looked similar […]

When I studied in the States, Krispy Kreme was something that my mates and I would always buy to enjoy on the go. It was affordable and there was always this ‘Buy a Dozen, Free a Dozen’ promotion going on so the group of us could easily devour 24 doughnuts at once. When we came […]

I particularly like the revamped Marina Square with the inclusion of The Dining Edition which is a new dining concept that puts together different cuisine from around the world under one roof. From Viet, Thai, Chinese, Japanese to Brazilian restaurants as well as a few new dessert bars and familiar cafes, we are definitely in for […]

Updated 06/10/14: Read my latest post on A Value-for-Money Taiwan Porridge Buffet @ Crystal Cafe, Orchard Grand Court (Revisit). Besides Quality Hotel (read my post on their porridge buffet here), Crystal Cafe at Killiney Road is another Taiwan porridge place worth visiting. It is an unpretentious cafe with no contemporary decor compared to other restaurants in the […]

It was a lazy Sunday morning but I woke up early feeling bright and cheery. The husband and I had been ill and got no choice but to stay home over Christmas and do nothing. BORING was the word. When I felt myself in top form on the weekend, I was excited to make the […]

I just wonder sometimes why I would go crazy with buffets especially when I love variety but I’m never able to eat so much at one setting compared to the husband. And my appetite seems to shrink as I grow older (another sign of aging?) but my weight remains the same (unfair!). Buffets are just […]
