Hello again Jen. Just a year ago, I was here with my family for their weekend brunch buffet at the former Cafebiz (now renamed to J65). And last month I was back with my husband because the kind folks at Hotel Jen Tanglin had hosted us for a one-night stay which happened to coincide with […]
Have you guys been to Woodlands Terrace yet for your CNY shopping? I was there on the weekend – people mountain people sea as usual. Managed to snag salmon fillets, smoked salmon and squids from Fassler, assorted CNY cookies from DJ Bakery, sauces from Chuen Cheong and a bunch of different steamboat ingredients from Li […]
I’m quite amused by the ever-changing names of the salad bar above KFC at Toa Payoh Central. It was where Sizzler once sat before the brand left Singapore’s F&B scene totally. Next came Chums Steakhouse. Then came Seasonal Salad Bar. And now? It’s called Krazy Salad Bar. While they were all different entities, what they […]
Kim Dae Mun used to be a Korean food stall located at the food court of the former Le Meridien Hotel (now known as Concorde Hotel) on Orchard Road. I was initially disappointed when the food court was gone because that just meant I couldn’t get to enjoy great authentic Korean food at wallet-friendly prices […]
Hong Kong Style Dim Sum is one of my favourite weekend breakfast or brunch food. It’s just so satisfying to indulge in a bowl of hot comforting porridge (it has to be century egg one haha) with a variety of steamed or fried snacks. Makes me hungry now I’m thinking about it, lol. G and […]
I must admit I actually never heard of Kay Lee until it came into the limelight after it was sold to a conglomerate for S$4 million in 2014. How impressive the food must be, I thought to myself, that anyone would offer such an enormous sum of money for one of Singapore’s favourite hawker foods. […]
We are going to usher in the Year of the Monkey in just less than 3 weeks’ time. This year I will be having my reunion dinner a few days earlier as my hubby will be away for the whole of the CNY period and I haven’t started stocking up on ingredients yet. Coming up […]
Latest update: This cafe has closed w.e.f. Jan 2016. This used to be a hair-salon-cum-cafe by the name of Take 2 Cafe Take 2 Saloon but as the cafe was doing so much better than the salon, it is now changed to a full-fledged cafe. Take 2 Cafe is a family-run establishment that serves up […]
After a good walk around the Kallang Riverside Park, hub and I (while still on healthy mode) decided to settle for vegetarian food for lunch. We found this vegetarian cafe at Kallang Leisure Park that offered a variety of different cuisines from Chinese to Thai, Vietnamese, Western and more. Check out their menu here: When […]
Two months back, I got W this Banana Chocolat Roll from Pâtisserie Glacé for her birthday and we really loved it because it was somewhat different from the usual cakes we had in the past. Recently, I saw the same cake again at Pâtisserie Glacé’s outlet at Square 2 and just couldn’t resist the temptation […]
The husband and I have been regularly patronising Ayam Penyet Ria @ Lucky Plaza for years whenever we have craving for smashed fried chicken but have never been to Ayam Penyet President (both are separate entities) that also has an outlet in the same building. When we spotted another one of the latter’s outlets at […]
Now that Downtown Line 2 has begun operation, it is so much easier to get to places that I don’t normally go due to transport hassle that would require me to make several changes of buses from where I live. I never did frequent Upper Bukit Timah area much because it’s just so out of the […]
Every time the husband and I walked past Humble Beginnings at JB City Square, we kept saying to ourselves that we would come back for their mille crepes next time but it never did happen. So at our last JB exploration trip when we came back to JB Sentral from AEON Bukit Indah, we immediately […]
Since my last visit to Dragon-i where I had a pretty satisfying dinner with the family, the husband and I had been waiting for an opportunity to come back to try its sister restaurant, Canton-i. While Dragon-i offers Shanghainese specialties like xiao long bao and la mian, Canton-i specialises in Hong Kong/Cantonese dishes like wontons, roast duck, barbecued […]
Baagus Place is a small casual-dining eatery located just opposite the TGV Cinemas on the 2nd floor of AEON Bukit Indah Shopping Centre. For directions on how to get to AEON Bukit Indah from JB Sentral/CIQ, check out my earlier post: How to get to AEON Bukit Indah by bus? – Johor Bahru Shuttle Bus […]
A&W, you are dearly missed. Please come back to Singapore soon. Since A&W’s exit from Singapore in 2003, I’m sure many Singaporeans like myself who had grown up with one of our favourite childhood fast food chains must be craving for its root beer floats, waffles, coney dogs and curly fries for a long time. Though they […]
