Nakhon Kitchen – The best neighbourhood gem in Singapore that offers cheap & good Thai food

I had only just hopped onto the Nakhon Kitchen bandwagon last year. Probably still a few years too late but nonetheless I’m very glad that there is a NK branch near where I live so whenever I’m craving for food from the Land of Smiles, this is the place to go. And I’m sure many […]

Rochor Original Beancurd – Still the best in Singapore?

I was in the Selegie area and happened to pass by this stretch of road so thought I would stop by Rochor Original Beancurd for afternoon tea. Don’t confuse this brand with Rochor Beancurd House which is one of my favourite supper places along Upper Thomson Road. Well, some of you might remember the Rochor […]

Lunch Buffet @ Hansang Korean Family Restaurant, Square 2

Hubby and I came by Square 2 at Novena because I wanted to check out the pet shop there for a cream colour Syrian hamster but to no avail. If any of you peeps happen to see a solid cream colour baby Syrian hamster at any pet shop in Singapore, please drop me a line, […]

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 […]

Stuff’d @ Waterway Point

I was feeling very free after my medical appointment so I decided to journey north-east to check out the new Waterway Point. I totally loved the mall because it was situated in a rather scenic spot of a relatively new residential estate. You would know what I mean as you read on. 🙂 I don’t […]

Nasi Ambeng @ Pu3 Restaurant, Bencoolen Street

H recently introduced me to the nasi ambeng (pronounced ‘um-bng’) which she had tried and fell in love with while in Indonesia. It’s a traditional Javanese feast that’s usually eaten during the festivities and consists of rice and assorted meat and vegetable dishes served on a platter or tray meant for sharing between 4-5 persons. […]

An Italian Buffet Lunch @ Pete’s Place, Grand Hyatt Singapore

Soup and salad buffet. Again. Well, at least it’s an Italian one this time, haha. I treated the husband and myself to an Italian lunch buffet at Pete’s Place as I had Hyatt Gold Passport points to redeem before they expired very soon. For those of you who haven’t been to Pete’s Place before, when […]

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 […]

Savour a New Brunch Menu at Salt Tapas and Bar

Some months back, I attended a cooking workshop conducted by Chef Ronald Li, head chef of Salt Tapas & Bar where I got the chance to see him whip up some delicious brunch comfort food. This time, I was back for a tasting session following the launch of their new brunch menu. Located at Raffles […]

Krazy Salad Bar @ Toa Payoh Central

Some weeks back, I reviewed Seasonal Salad Bar that used to occupy this same unit space above KFC at Toa Payoh Central. After it shifted to a new location next to Courts, then came Krazy Salads which is like the 4th salad bar tenant of the same premise since Sizzler. The husband and I walked […]

ButterScotch Cafe @ Bukit Merah Central

I’ve long heard about the cafes at Bukit Merah Central that have garnered raving reviews on social media but it’s a part of Singapore that I don’t really come to often because it’s quite out of the way for me. When I was at IKEA Alexandra the other day, I thought I’d just swing by the […]

West Grill Station Yio Chu Kang @ Blk 630 Ang Mo Kio Avenue 4

I used to think this stall space in my neighbourhood coffeeshop was jinxed probably due to bad fengshui or something because all the previous stalls (lost count of how many) did not last more than a few months each. Until a few months back when West Grill Station opened that I realised how much life […]

Riverwalk Tandoor @ Upper Circular Road

Since my last visit to The Grand Gem Indian Restaurant @ Grand Bluewave Hotel in Johor Bahru, I really missed a good Indian buffet with robust-tasting dishes and lots of gravies and spices. One of my foodie friends recommended Riverwalk Tandoor which I had passed by countless times but never did I go in once […]

FoodBox Curry Chicken Rice

On the days following the start of Chinese New Year, it can be quite a challenge to look for food because many stalls in hawker centres and/or coffee shops can be closed till the 4th day of CNY or even later. Unless you have cooked a huge CNY feast for your reunion meal and have […]

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 […]
