Dine rijsttafel-style at The Rice Table Indonesian Restaurant @ International Building

The Rice Table has been one of my all-time favourite Indonesian restaurants in Singapore ever since my college mate introduced me to it more than a decade ago when we were hosting our lecturer who was in town from the States. And whenever I need to host friends from overseas every now and then, this […]

Finally finally, I’m here at Wheeler’s Yard. Probably one of the hottest and hippiest cafes in Singapore where cafe goers will come for their selfies and #OOTD shots. Come on, just look at the number of pictures posted on instagram and see if you spot that famous structure that is so sought after. And it’s none […]

Fix Cafe @ Ah Hood Road (HomeTeamNS-JOM)

I had been looking at pictures of those tantalising donuts with salted egg yolk dip on instagram and when I showed them to the husband, his heart fluttered. Donuts + salted egg yolk. How ingenious. We made a beeline for those little morsels. Didn’t care what else was there. We just had to satisfy our craving […]

Working Title @ Arab Street

I came across Working Title a long while back but it was only recently when I was shopping around for fabrics at Arab Street that I decided to stop by for a quick brunch. The cafe is located at Shophouse The Social Hostel so it isn’t unusual to see a bunch of backpackers there with maps on hand […]

Hup Lee Cafeteria Fish Bee Hoon @ The Arcade

Those of you working in Raffles Place, you would likely know this unassuming place as one of the better fish soups within the CBD that always had a long queue at lunch time on weekdays. I’m a big fan of fish soup so when my colleague recommended me this stall years ago while I was working in the […]

Kin Kin Chilli Pan Mee 建记辣椒板面 @ MacPherson Road

The husband wanted to go BreadTalk IHQ for some sports apparel warehouse sale so I suggested to walk over to Kin Kin Chilli Pan Mee (nearest MRT is Tai Seng) for lunch beforehand since it was nearby. Just months ago, it’d take 2-3 hours to queue for a bowl of ban mian here. We are really glad the […]

I Am Cafe @ North Bridge Road (off Haji Lane)

If you often head to Bugis especially the Haji Lane area, then you definitely would have come across this busy corner cafe off Haji Lane. I had wanted to try this on previous occasions when I was in the vicinity but I always came at the wrong time and had to give it a miss as […]

Flourish Pastries @ Tanjong Pagar Plaza

Whenever I go back to UK with the husband, one of the first things I’ll do is to head to Tesco to grab a box of my favourite Fresh Cream & Belgian Chocolate Choux Buns. Those are utterly delicious! When back in Singapore, I often lament the non-existence of a good choux bun in Singapore until a […]

Qi Le Boneless Chicken Rice @ Ang Mo Kio Central

The husband and I had probably passed by this S11 food court umpteen times whenever we headed to NTUC Fairprice at AMK Hub for our weekly grocery shopping. Every time, we’d see a long queue at this chicken rice stall but had never given it a try. Recently we were there again and as it was raining […]

Issan Thai Food 泰国东北美食 @ Tanjong Pagar Market and Food Centre

After a not-so-satisfying thunder tea rice from Traditional Hakka Rice, my friend and I decided to share a pad thai from Issan Thai Food which had a pretty long queue. Be prepared to wait as it took us at least 20 minutes before it was our turn to order and another 10 minutes for our […]

Traditional Hakka Rice 河婆客家擂茶 @ Tanjong Pagar Plaza Market & Food Centre

I met up with a friend for lunch at Tanjong Pagar Plaza Market & Food Centre and he highly recommended me to try this Traditional Hakka Rice stall that often had long queues on weekdays and would normally sell out even before lunch hour was over. That fantastic? I readily accepted his suggestion even though this was my third thunder […]

The Lawn Cafe – Meat your Greens at this Specialty Grill & Salad Cafe

I was invited to a food tasting over the weekend at The Lawn Cafe @ Biopolis (nearest MRT is Buona Vista) which was located on the first floor of one of the office buildings (Nanos) next to the newer The Metropolis. Being in such an area, I had initially expected The Lawn to be a similar […]

Llaollao Natural Frozen Yogurt – A Delicious & Healthy Dessert!

Update: Price for Sanum has gone up to S$6.90 but it includes one additional crunch topping. Say “YAO YAO”! And that’s how you pronounce this Spanish brand of yogurt, lol. Though the husband and I still like calling it ‘lao lao’ for fun just like an endearing nickname 🙂 Anyway, yes, I’m sure Llaollao doesn’t […]

Chef Yamashita @ Tanjong Pagar Plaza

When I heard that Chef Masataka Yamashita, the former head chef of Flor Patisserie and Patisserie Glace had opened his own cakery a few months back, I just had to come by to check out his signature cakes and sweet treats. The moment I entered the shop, I was just wowed by the beautiful display of […]
