My Banh Mi Singapore – Bringing you a taste of Saigon

Couple of months ago, a new banh mi (Vietnamese sandwich) place popped up in the CBD, right at Tanjong Pagar Centre. Really glad to see that as I love Vietnamese food a lot. Probably even more after I visited Hanoi last year. ? Banh mi and pho are my kind of soul food. ? So there’s […]

Naowarat Thai Bistro – An underrated gem that serves up Thai-rrific food

Totally loving our hikes across estates these days. It’s like the best way to clock up the miles and possibly a few tens of thousands steps as well. ? And nothing beats building up an appetite with a long walk like this because everything tastes fantastic when you’re famished, haha. Anyway, we were very into ‘mouse-hunting’ […]

Fish & Co. Singapore – Tastiest Swordfish Collar

Fish & Co. has been a well-known homegrown food brand in Singapore since a long time ago. Those of you who like fish & chips have probably dined at Fish & Co. countless times before like me. Their Glasshouse outlet (closed in 2016) used to be our favourite hangout place during college days. I remembered […]

Zhi Zhe Lai (知者来) @ Toa Payoh

We were seated right in front of 知者来 (or Zhi Zhe Lai) as we were having breakfast at the Toa Payoh West Market & Food Centre. This stall is located a few units away from Teochew Handmade Pau so if you’re seated in the same section, you shouldn’t miss this. Saw many customers leaving with […]

Teochew Handmade Pau @ Toa Payoh

Whenever GM visited me previously, she would always bring along a box of at least a dozen of these cute-looking mini pau (steamed buns) from Teochew Handmade Pau. That’s the good thing about living in Toa Payoh because it’s a foodie-paradise neighbourhood with many famous foods around, both old-fashioned and hipster ones. ? The reason […]

Yum Cha Chinatown – The perfect place to enjoy a leisurely weekday Dim Sum Buffet

This is like the 3rd time I’ve blogged about Yum Cha Restaurant in Chinatown, lol. Been coming here for its Weekday Dim Sum High Tea Buffet for years and the food has never let me down. Whenever we have family or friends visiting us in Singapore, Yum Cha is one of the places that we […]

So Pho Bento Takeaway | Halal Vietnamese Food

After all that blogging I’ve done for my Hanoi travels, it’s inevitable that I’ll have strong cravings for Vietnamese food. Since I was too lazy to go home and cook, I thought I would just grab takeaways from So Pho at Novena Square as that was the only Vietnamese restaurant that came to my mind, […]

Hokkaido Baked Cheese Tart

Those of you living in the West may have already stumbled upon Hokkaido Baked Cheese Tart at Jurong Point. However, do not mistake this for BAKE Cheese Tart at ION Orchard and Westgate which is the real deal from Hokkaido, Japan whereas Hokkaido Baked Cheese Tart is by Malaysian cafe chain, Secret Recipe. I first […]

Teppei Syokudo @ Takashimaya Food Hall

Japanese food lovers in Singapore should be quite familiar with Teppei Japanese Restaurant @ Orchid Hotel (Tanjong Pagar) that is popular for its value-for-money omakase set dinners (require 6 months advance reservation) and bara chirashi dons. But what I really like is their takeaway counter, Teppei Syokudo, which is conveniently located at places including Takashimaya […]

Tuk Tuk Cha – For Thai Milk Tea & Shibuya Toast

Since back from our Bangkok holiday, I’ve been lamenting to the husband about the lack of street food vendors and good cha yen in Singapore. Really miss that week of non-stop eating, lol. We stayed right in the heart of Pratunam and we would be greeted (day & night) with a whole busy street of […]

Miss Kefir – Fluffy & Scrumptious Bak Kwa Scones

The first time I came across the term ‘kefir’ was when the hubby’s colleague bought us some bak kwa scones from Miss Kefir. Initially I thought that was just a name, as in a shop name, but I realised later that kefir is actually a yogurt-like cultured drink that’s popular in Eastern and Northern Europe. […]

I was at Khoo Teck Puat Hospital to pick up my Dad who was getting discharged. We headed to the food court for lunch and saw that the place had undergone a major facelift and is now a 2-storey space that sports a clean, bright and trendy outfit. The number of food stalls has probably […]

Nine Fresh Desserts Taiwan | Cheap & Good Treats

Never expected myself to be crazy (ok, not that bad, haha) about Taiwanese desserts in Singapore as I thought they were just overpriced, mediocre stuffs that were probably not worth the sugar and calories, haha. However, since I tried my very first bowl of ai-yu jelly from Nine Fresh, a Singapore local chain for Taiwanese […]

Dapur Melaka | For Chetti Melaka & Peranakan Cuisine and the Freshest Sri Lankan Crabs

I was just stoked to discover another hidden gem in Singapore on Sembawang Road this time. Was invited to a food tasting at this newly opened restaurant that is located a stone’s throw away from Springleaf where the popular prata place and Ampang yong tau foo are. I just love that absolutely tranquil surrounding. It […]
