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 […]

[CLOSED] Hai Bin Prawning @ Bishan

Prawn fishing has been a much enjoyed leisure activity for many in Singapore. The anticipation of landing a bite, the thrill of hooking a catch and the live grilling of your prized trophies at the end of the day are probably what make prawning a fun sport for people of all ages. Hai Bin @ […]

Fish Porridge @ Mr Teh Tarik, Ang Mo Kio Ave 5

Mr Teh Tarik Fish Porridge @ Blk 608 Ang Mo Kio Ave 5

I’m lucky to be living in an estate with hawker centres and coffee shops in close proximity 24/7. But it was also disappointing that there wasn’t any decent fish soup here until I chanced upon Mr Teh Tarik eating house at Blk 608 Ang Mo Kio Ave 5 (where Botak Jones used to be located) […]

Enjoying laksa and curry chicken rice @ 328 Katong Laksa, Queensway Shopping Centre

328 Katong Laksa @ Queensway Shopping Centre

My husband and I made a second trip down to Queensway Shopping Centre so he could buy that pair of Nike Dunk Low sneakers he had been eyeing since our last visit. But it was a wasted effort as that model he wanted was no longer in stock and we just couldn’t find it in […]

Prata Raya @ Ang Mo Kio Hub

I’m not sure if Prata Raya is a revamped version of Ah Mei Cafe that was located inside AMK Hub previously. Its menu is the same as Ah Mei’s and in fact, I’m quite certain the chefs are the same because the fish curry gravy and texture of their pratas resemble that of Ah Mei […]

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 […]

Chomp Chomp Food Centre Part II Delights

For some reasons, I just love Chomp Chomp. It isn’t a very big food centre and most of the stalls are in fact repeated but there are gems to explore and it never fails to surprise me each time I’m there. Large-size sugar cane juice ($3.00 each from Stall 25) No more medium-sized glasses. This […]

Carousel @ Royal Plaza on Scotts Part 2

As mentioned in my other blog entry on Carousel, my family and I decided to ditch the ideas of steamboat at home or lo hei dinner at some Chinese restaurant and celebrate our CNY eve here instead. I wasn’t seriously enthusiastic in dining at the same place twice in a month but a reunion meal […]

Toast Box 土司工坊 @ Resorts World Sentosa

Probably the cheapest meals we could get during our staycation at Resorts World. We had a dinner and a lunch here mainly to save costs as everything else in RWS was terribly expensive. They were still decent meals though to fill the stomachs and for the prices we paid, even though really nothing GREAT to […]

Carousel @ Royal Plaza on Scotts

Carousel was awarded the Best Buffet Restaurant in People’s Choice Awards 2009 and is one of the few good halal hotel buffets in Singapore. I used to be a big fan of weekend hi teas but had never found a place where I would consider returning again. Finally, my search is over now. Situated at […]

Nan Xiang Chicken Rice @ Square 2, Novena

Crowning the best chicken rice stall in Singapore is probably one of the most subjective missions ever. For many years, we probably had heard familiar names like Boon Tong Kee @ Balestier, Wee Nam Kee @ Thomson Road, Loy Kee @ Clementi, Tian Tian @ Maxwell Market or Chatterbox @ Mandarin Orchard Hotel. Having tried […]

Broadway Claypot Rice @ Blk 728 Ang Mo Kio

Update 2016: This stall has moved to Blk 727, Ang Mo Kio Avenue 6, #01-4236, Singapore 560727 (Tel: 9657 7947 / 9369 0902). I remembered years ago I had ever tried a claypot rice at a food court in Bugis that was probably cooked in another pot, transferred into a small claypot and then served. […]

Chomp Chomp Food Centre – Food Galore!

Coming to Chomp Chomp Food Centre never fails to bring back a strong sense of nostalgia and memories of the good old JC days when I was still in Nanyang Junior College more than a decade ago. Taking a bus to Serangoon Gardens to eat at Chomp Chomp and to visit my aunt/grandmother was like […]

Oyster Night @ The Line, Shangri-La Hotel

If you are an oyster lover like me, who loves slurping up big, fat, juicy oysters off the shells, then the Oyster Night buffet (every Tuesday night) at The Line is certainly not to be missed. At $88.00++ per pax, you will get to enjoy oysters of different nationalities from France to New Zealand to […]
