It was 8 o’clock in the evening and the husband and I were roaming everywhere in Raffles City, undecided on where to have our dinner till we chanced upon Buffet Town that was bustling with life (and noise) inside. A peep into the restaurant through the glass window, I saw piles of chilled crayfish, oysters […]

Here chicky chicky…a new Chicken is in town! And its first outlet has just opened at Tiong Bahru Plaza. Founded in Tai Chung, Taiwan since 1973, Ji Guang Delicious Fried Chicken has been a household name among the locals and also a big hit with tourists. If you’ve ever tried J&G Fried Chicken, you’d probably […]

I hadn’t made any successful reservation during the last Singapore Restaurant Week as the restaurants that I wanted to visit were all fully-booked by the time I was down to it. So in the recent same event (7-13 October 2013), I acted early to secure a lunch reservation at Taratata Bistrot, not because it was […]

Recently, I have been seeing quite a number of Pezzo kiosks around. I was walking past one at Woodlands Xchange when someone inside suddenly gestured and ‘shouted’ to us to try their pizzas because they are ‘VERY NICE’ and the ‘BEST IN TOWN’. I was a little amused because the outlet looked newly opened and […]

Who would have guessed that there would be a hidden gem in Far East Plaza that serves up quality Japanese food that is so fresh, you literally taste the ocean. When I walked past the restaurant that is located in an inconspicuous corner on Level 3, I saw the chefs in the open kitchen busy […]

When I was previously working at Raffles Quay, one of my colleagues recommended me to try this thunder tea rice stall. I remembered tasting thunder tea rice a very long time ago but didn’t have a great impression of it because the green coloured tea soup had a very strong flavour that I wasn’t too […]

This is Part II of my food post from our recent day trip to Johor Bahru two weeks ago. Read Part I here. After spending the afternoon shopping at KSL City, we headed back to City Square to meet up with the parents who only then arrived in JB. They came here like previous years […]

I felt a little turned off to write this blog post because it wasn’t a fully enjoyable dining experience for me and my family. Normally I don’t even start off my food review with such a comment. Read on to find out more. Craving for steamboat, I decided to bring the family to Danro Japanese […]

The first time I heard about Pizza Box was when I read some raving reviews from a fellow blogger (thanks again Sam for the recommendation!) last week. And the reviews came at a perfect time as I was also planning a day out to JB with my husband so it became an unanimous decision to […]

Since my previous post on McDonald’s Rendang Beef Burger which I wasn’t too impressed with 2 months ago, I have been wishing for the Samurai Burger to return and now my wait is finally over. Watch the TV commercial here: A boring commercial this time. I’d still prefer a jolly jingle like the one in the earlier […]

I have been to a number of Japanese buffet restaurants and I must say this is one of my preferred ones because it serves my favourite mekajiki (swordfish) sashimi that comes in thick cuts and always taste fresh and sweet. I have had bad experiences where the sashimi served were either slightly frozen (not properly […]

When I was recently blogging about Tea Lounge @ Regent Hotel where its scones are very popular with the locals, I was reminded of the best tea time experience I’ve ever had when I visited the birthplace of William Shakespeare at Stratford-upon-Avon. Getting a taste of olde England in Shakespeare’s hometown was something very surreal to me. […]

Seafood! What?! Kiseki again??? Yes, it’s my second time to Kiseki within a span of one week! Never ever done such a thing before :p but the parents were too captivated by the earlier Kiseki pictures so I just had to bring them here this time which wasn’t a bad thing too as I could […]

The hunt for good affordable Japanese buffets continues. Since my past expeditions to Shin Minori and Kuishin Bo, which failed to tickle my fussy palates, I’m now here to conquer Kiseki which I heard is very popular among students and families. In fact, I was quite impressed with the prices for a Japanese restaurant located […]

As mentioned in my other blog entry on Carousel, my family and I decided to ditch the ideas of steamboat at home or lo hei dinner at some Chinese restaurant and celebrate our CNY eve here instead. I wasn’t seriously enthusiastic in dining at the same place twice in a month but a reunion meal […]
