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 […]
Update (Oct 2016): Price for the Xiao Long Bao or Guo Tie is now S$6. The husband and I were checking out the Chinatown Complex Food Centre for new eats and we stumbled upon this Chinese stall that sells xiao long bao (XLB), dumplings and a decent selection of noodles. Their XLBs are all handmade […]
Last week, I posted a review on LeBan HK Cafe on which I had also mentioned that we could buy Irvins Salted Egg products from there. And this is what I would like to recommend – Irvins Salted Egg Fish Skins (S$15)! I already love fish skins to bits. Pairing them with my favourite salted […]
Update: This cafe has ceased operations w.e.f. October 2016. I must admit, I’m now an addict. Hopelessly addicted to anything salted egg, lol. What used to be something that my ah gong or ah ma would pair with plain rice congee is now a nationwide sensation. How incredible. I used to patronise Irvin’s Live Seafood […]
This Indonesian Bamboo Cake stall is located along Trengganu Street just opposite Fatty Weng Restaurant. Not sure how I could have neglected its existence for such a long time and to think I still call myself a putu piring (kueh tutu) fan, haha. For those not from this part of the world, well, putu piring […]
Bubble Tea. Froyo. Shibuya Toast. Over-The-Top Milkshake. Korean Fried Chicken. Salted Egg Yolk Croissant. Singapore has a never-ending list of food fads in recent years. Just weeks before popular Japanese cheese tart shop, BAKE opened at ION Orchard, our good old local bakery chain, PrimaDeli also launched their new lava cheese tarts. The cheese tarts […]
I ditched the panda for the kangaroo this time. 🙂 Previously, I would often use Foodpanda to order food online and have it delivered to my doorstep on lazy days when I just didn’t want to cook or even go out and buy. Now I’m a convert and I’ve been using Deliveroo ever since I […]
Hubby and I came by Square 2 at Novena because I wanted to check out the pet shop there for a cream colour Syrian hamster but to no avail. If any of you peeps happen to see a solid cream colour baby Syrian hamster at any pet shop in Singapore, please drop me a line, […]
I jumped on the Itacho Sushi bandwagon only less than 2 years ago. Before that, I wouldn’t even consider myself a huge fan of mass-market sushi brands because the quality of food could be (and still are) quite inconsistent at times even though prices were on the rise due to inflation. But so far my previous […]
I was feeling very free after my medical appointment so I decided to journey north-east to check out the new Waterway Point. I totally loved the mall because it was situated in a rather scenic spot of a relatively new residential estate. You would know what I mean as you read on. 🙂 I don’t […]
H recently introduced me to the nasi ambeng (pronounced ‘um-bng’) which she had tried and fell in love with while in Indonesia. It’s a traditional Javanese feast that’s usually eaten during the festivities and consists of rice and assorted meat and vegetable dishes served on a platter or tray meant for sharing between 4-5 persons. […]
Soup and salad buffet. Again. Well, at least it’s an Italian one this time, haha. I treated the husband and myself to an Italian lunch buffet at Pete’s Place as I had Hyatt Gold Passport points to redeem before they expired very soon. For those of you who haven’t been to Pete’s Place before, when […]
Seriously, I would never expect to see authentic Japanese ramen being served in a coffeeshop located at ground level of a HDB flat in Ang Mo Kio. J and I were supposed to have our lunch from Astons Express at the same coffeeshop but we changed our mind after we spotted this new ramen stall. […]
I was craving for sashimi and thought I would check out this little humble Japanese eatery at Thomson Plaza after hearing some raving reviews from fellow foodies about their possibly ‘cheapest in Singapore’ bara chirashi dons. If you aren’t familiar with Thomson Plaza, it might be a bit tricky to locate Sushiro just by looking […]
