Penang Delights Prawn Mee & Lor Mee @ S11, Ang Mo Kio Central

Penang Delights was voted as one of the top prawn noodle stalls in Singapore by Channel U viewers. Indeed, it is also one of my two favourite places to go to for a tasty bowl of prawn noodles besides Whitley Road Big Prawn Mee. This stall is located at the S11 Food Court (in front of […]

Lor Mee 178 (鹵麵178) @ Tiong Bahru Market

I was craving for nonya kuehs and lor mee so I went gallivanting in Tiong Bahru for some good eats. Headed to Tiong Bahru Market for lunch and had queued up at Tiong Bahru Lor Mee Stall (#02-80) for at least 10 minutes but was told their Lor Mee had sold out by the time […]

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 […]

Thunder Tea Rice 擂茶 @ Lau Pa Sat Festival Market

When I was previously working at Raffles Quay, one of my colleagues recommended me to try this thunder tea rice stall. I remembered tasting thunder tea rice a very long time ago but didn’t have a great impression of it because the green coloured tea soup had a very strong flavour that I wasn’t too […]

Dragon-i Restaurant 笼的传人上海拉面小笼包 @ City Square, Johor Bahru

This is Part II of my food post from our recent day trip to Johor Bahru two weeks ago. Read Part I here. After spending the afternoon shopping at KSL City, we headed back to City Square to meet up with the parents who only then arrived in JB. They came here like previous years […]

[CLOSED] Shen Xi Soup 沈希老火湯 @ Foodfare, Khoo Teck Puat Hospital

[Update 08/06/14: Outlet is now closed. Please click on their website below for other locations islandwide.] These days, I frequent KTPH so regularly that it is almost becoming a hangout place for me as it’s where my ailing parents have been heading to for medical consultations & treatments. Even I also see a urologist there […]

Pu Tien Restaurant 莆田菜馆 (Heng Hwa Cuisine) @ NEX

I remembered I was first introduced to Pu Tien several years back by my ‘PK mum’ (an endearing term for a friend who calls me PK aka Pumpkin) as she was raving about its Lor Mee. In my mind, Lor Mee has always been a bowl of thick flat yellow noodles in a thick, dark […]

[CLOSED] Zhou’s Kitchen 周庄 @ Square 2

I felt absolutely gutted that I didn’t get a last chance to dine at Zhou’s Kitchen before it made its exit from Singapore last week. I’m sure my mother would be equally disappointed too because we had enjoyed their value-for-money weekday high tea buffets in the past whenever we had to go TTSH for her […]

Gyoza no Ohsho 餃子の王将 @ Cuppage Plaza

One of my corporate gift vendors recently recommended me to a Japanese restaurant at Cuppage Plaza and I decided to head over to check out the restaurant until I spotted this small Japanese style Chinese food eatery at the side entrance area that was full house. While stealing a glance at the dishes that these […]

A Rainy Reunion Dinner at Bottle Tree Park

I was frantically searching for a venue for our reunion dinner the week before CNY and was glad when my Dad handed me a flyer from Bottle Tree Park. Luckily, I managed to secure a table for the 4 of us. I didn’t set high expectations before I came as I thought we were lucky […]

Oasis Taiwan Porridge Restaurant @ Toa Payoh Town Park

This is one of my all-time favourite porridge places. First recommended to me by my ex-boss when we used to work long hours then and would head here together for a late porridge supper. This used to be located next to the Indoor Stadium and has since moved to Toa Payoh Central, just next to […]

Hup Chong Hakka Yong Dou Foo at Toa Payoh

A sense of sudden nostalgia made me stop at Braddell MRT on my way home from work. This was the area that I was so familiar with when I was working as a student care teacher while studying for my part time degree. The good old days indeed. Who can ever forget the taste of […]

Gim Tim Restaurant 锦珍酒楼 at Ang Mo Kio

It has always been a challenge to me to find a good Chinese restaurant where the entire family will enjoy given the different tastes and high expectations we (esp. the older folks) all have with food. So for Dad’s birthday this year, I decided to bring the family to this little air-conditioned restaurant tucked away […]

Chey Sua Carrot Cake at Toa Payoh

  After watching a recap programme of Yummy King in which taxi drivers and members of the public voted this as one of the top carrot cakes in Singapore, I decided to make my way there and to try it myself to see if it is really as good as what people say it is. […]

Qiji shares authentic local delights with you

Hubby and I came here for a quick bite before heading over to The Mind Cafe @ Funan Centre. We ordered a laksa, nasi lemak and a home-made water chestnut drink to share. The nasi lemak came with an otah, chicken wing, ikan billis (fried anchovies) with peanuts, omelette, cucumber and sambal chilli. I thought […]

Peach Garden Chinese Restaurant @ Thomson

My team gave me a lunch treat to celebrate my birthday over dim sum at Peach Garden @ Thomson Plaza. I remembered having dim sum here many many years back but it didn’t leave a deep impression in me but I thought it’d be a good idea to check it out again and see if […]
