Whenever I’m near Paya Lebar, I will always head to Haig Road Market & Food Centre for putu piring but now I don’t have to do that anymore because my favourite stall, Traditional Haig Road Putu Piring, has opened an outlet near where I live. Woohoo! 🙂 Two days again, I shared about this pretty […]

Couple of weeks ago, I passed by Blk 728 Ang Mo Kio Ave 6 (beside Broadway Plaza and opposite the McDonald’s at Ang Mo Kio Town Garden West) when I headed to the library and was surprised to see that the old coffeeshop that used to house two of the best eats in the neighbourhood […]

Rolina used to be a bakery in Ang Mo Kio in the 80s and 90s, if my memory serves me right. I kinda remembered the times when I would pop by the shop after school to grab some afternoon tea time snacks and I didn’t know they actually specialised in curry puffs now until a […]

The oyster cake was one of Granny’s favourite deep-fried snacks in the 80s. I remembered they were very greasy but oh-so-delicious and addictive. They also had crunchy peanuts and crispy silver fish on top. Not really sure where Gran had bought the oyster cakes from or perhaps because they were more common back then so […]

Hubby and I were on the way home in a taxi after paying respects to my late grandmother. We passed by Upper Thomson Road so decided to alight there to grab some brunch. Had seen this prata place for the longest time ever and since we hadn’t tried before, we settled on this. Here’s a […]

Wow, how long had it been since I ate at Outback Steakhouse? At least 10 years probably, lol. I remembered visiting their outlet in Bangkok when I was there on holiday with a colleague. I was planning a birthday meal for D not too long ago and it was quite tough because there were different […]

I had long heard about Bay Hotel from E & C when they came here for a staycation last year and it had always been on my mind since then to go check this place out. I came across STREET 50‘s (that’s the flagship restaurant of the hotel) Asian Weekend Lunch Buffet on Groupon and […]

A new tze char place, Famous JB 101 Firewokz has recently opened for business at WCEGA Tower along Bukit Batok Crescent. I was invited for a food tasting session last week and so I headed to the West to check it out. The location is quite out of the way as WCEGA Tower is only […]

Since trying Brickfields Pisang Goreng in KL, Malaysia (that was like the best!) during my last trip there, my love for goreng pisang was rekindled after so many years. While I was at Balestier the other day, I thought I would drop by Balestier Food Centre for Boon Pisang Goreng which was relocated to here […]

Update: This restaurant has ceased operations. H and I stumbled upon this Korean BBQ restaurant when we were shopping at Waterway Point some time ago so we arranged to come back on a weekday for their lunch buffet. Prices were considered very reasonable as this was an all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ buffet. Weekday (2-hour limit) Lunch […]

One of my readers recommended me to try Ah Seng Bak Kut Teh after I did a comprehensive review of popular BKTs in SG and JB. For those who missed out on my earlier posts, have a read if you’re interested: Song Fa Bak Kut Teh Founder Bak Kut Teh Ng Ah Sio Bak Kut […]

Update: Chef In Box ready-to-eat meals have new packaging labels now that show a detailed listing of ingredients used. When contacted, they explained that the ‘preservatives’ that were printed on the label were from the seasoning sauces used and that they did not add any extra preservatives to the food. When I was in college, […]

Update: This restaurant has ceased operations. They are now located in a coffeeshop at 18 Toh Yi Drive #01-97 Singapore 590018. Whenever I need a brief respite from the hustle and bustle of urban life, Dempsey is always the place that comes to mind because the area is just so quiet and tranquil in the […]

Was searching for somewhere to lunch in Hougang after my therapy session and happened to stumble upon this new hawker centre that is located within a community centre. Just love how spacious, clean, airy and well-ventilated the hawker centre is. Ci Yuan Community Club Hawker Centre is the first new-generation hawker centre to be built […]

From Toh Soon Cafe, we walked for about 5 minutes along Jalan Penang to Lebuh Keng Kwee (just 4 streets away) for our final food stop which was this chendol pushcart with an incredibly long queue. This auntie’s speed of whipping up bowls and bowls of chendol (RM2.50 per bowl) and ice kacang was just […]

Ask any local where to get good old Hainanese coffee in Georgetown, Penang, I’m sure he or she will likely point you to Toh Soon Cafe which is just two streets away from the famous Line Clear Nasi Kandar and is located in a back alley off Lebuh Campbell. It was a late afternoon on […]
