Update: This cafe is now closed. My ‘partner-in-crime’ and I dedicated a Saturday as our brainstorming day to talk about our business plans and it couldn’t have been a better time to pick a quaint and quiet area to discuss things in peace while enjoying a good cuppa with assorted bites on a lazy afternoon. And so we were here at Everton Park, […]

When I was little, I often followed my father to his favourite coffee stall for breakfast on Sundays and I remembered how he’d pour the coffee onto the saucer just so it could cool off quicker and I could drink with the spoon. I never forgotten his favourite was kopi-o siu dai (coffee black with […]

[Updated Dec 2014: Spanish Doughnuts is now closed.] Churros, my greatest love and they always have been since I had my first bite of it while in the US many many years ago. I don’t remember having (or even seeing) any churros when I was in Barcelona with K (which is kinda weird when it’s […]

Update: This has closed and is replaced by a Thai food stall. I was chit-chatting with the yong tau foo stall owner at the wet market near my home couple of days ago who told me the new tenant 2 units away would be selling chilled and frozen vegetarian food products. Yay! I’m already looking forward […]

I was first introduced to Hock Lam Beef @ Far East Square by a colleague some years back when I was working at Raffles Place area then. Their beef noodles was one of the better ones in Singapore that I’d tried so when the husband told me he wanted to have beef noodles, this place […]

I’m back at my favourite hawker centre with the husband! There’s this indescribable charm to the whole Tiong Bahru Market environment that always makes me want to come here and eat and whatever food I order can just easily put a smile on my face and makes me go ‘hmm hmm’, lol. Anyway, we were here […]

Whenever I’m at Tiong Bahru, I’d never leave without buying some kueh kueh from my favourite old-school bakery, Galicier. If you’ve been following my blog, you’d probably know I’m one of Galicier’s big-time fans, lol. Their Chinese New Year cookies, nonya kuehs, cakes and pastries – I totally heart them all. Recently, I went again […]

Like many fellow Teochews, I’ve always liked orh nee (yam paste), braised duck, steamed pomfret, cold crabs as well as hot piping porridge that I never seem to get sick of because there are just so many different choices of ingredients that I can choose from every time I’m at a stall like this. This particular […]

Sandwich is my new best friend and it’s something that I cannot live without especially on days when I need a quick lunch or a relaxing no-cook dinner. Besides Subway’s sandwiches, NamNam Noodle Bar is probably my only preferred choice of what I call Vietnamese fast food because of its wickedly tasty pork belly banh mi. […]
