Eighteen Chefs – Be Your Own Chef!

I can’t cook. But I sure can eat. So Eighteen Chefs’ “Be Your Own Chef” concept is extremely appealing to someone like me. Simply choose between baked rice or pasta, pick from 8 sauces and 12 ingredients, indicate your preferences on the order chit, and the chef will do the rest. Easy peasy Japanesey! Now, that’s fuss-free and personalised... Read more →

Sofra Turkish Cafe & Restaurant – A Slice of Turkey? Coming Right Up!

So I was in the mood for some exotic food just the other day. Something Middle Eastern. That’s pretty exotic, right? Sofra Turkish Café & Restaurant swiftly came to mind. I have been seeing that place through its glass-clad exterior for years and figured, why not? Here’s the thing: I wouldn’t know authentic Turkish cuisine if it bit me in the... Read more →

Qi Ji – Quick Bites

When you get a craving for nasi lemak, where do you normally go? I usually head to Qi Ji, which has ten locations scattered across Singapore. The no-frills eatery first became popular for its popiah (spring rolls). Nowadays, it has diversified with a much larger offering of local dishes that include laksa, mee Siam, and of course, nasi lemak. The halal eatery is operated... Read more →

Tanjong Pagar Railway Station – What’s Baseball Got to Do with Food?

One of the more unusual places where you can dine in Singapore is the Tanjong Pagar Railway Station. The many hawker stalls here cater to the travelers moving between Singapore and Malaysia. At night, residents living in the vicinity also flock here for the cheap and diverse chow. But do you know what’s really unusual about this place? (answer’s at the end... Read more →

Swensen’s 1-for-1 Ice Cream & Dessert Buffet!

Ever since Swensen’s introduced their 1-for-1 lunch promotion earlier this year, their restaurants are practically packed to the brim. It’s so popular that the promo has been extended to end August. Anyone else thinks that they are going to extend it a second time? Now, with the opening of their new outlet at Ion Orchard, they have rolled out another fabulous... Read more →

Katrina – Love Mee

So there I am, standing in the middle of the jam-packed Tampines mall on a Saturday evening and checking out Katrina. The place looks nondescript and plain, and the menu seemingly ordinary. In my mind I’m thinking: people are eating here only because they are unwilling to brave the queues at the more popular restaurants. Succumbing to the hungry rumbling of my stomach,... Read more →

Charco’s – Flaming Goodness!

For some reason, when an ang moh opens a Western food stall in the heartland, Singaporeans would throng the place. Maybe the food tastes more authentic. Or maybe the mental image of a sweaty ang moh preparing your steak makes it all the more appealing. I think it was the wildly popular Botak Jones that first started the craze. Then there’s crazy ang mo. More recently,... Read more →

Popeyes – Mighty Good Fried Chicken!

Wanna feast on finger lickin’ good fried chicken? Well, you probably can’t get it at KFC these days. But I’ll tell you where you can. Popeyes! No, not the spinach-eating cartoon character. Not exactly. I’m referring to Popeyes, the world’s second largest fast food chain specialising in chicken! But hey, if we’re talking about food quality,... Read more →
