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 […]

Boon Pisang Goreng (Long House) @ Balestier Food Centre

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 […]

[Closed] LeBan HK Cafe @ Jalan Leban (Upper Thomson)

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 […]

Indonesian Bamboo Cake 印尼竹筒糕 @ Trengganu Street, Chinatown

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 […]

Rochor Original Beancurd – Still the best in Singapore?

I was in the Selegie area and happened to pass by this stretch of road so thought I would stop by Rochor Original Beancurd for afternoon tea.

Itacho Sushi (Revisit)

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 […]

Stuff’d @ Waterway Point

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 […]

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.

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 […]
