Mention CoCo Ichibanya and it may just make curry fans hungry for some piping hot curry. With over 30 years of experience in the business of Japanese curry, CoCo Ichibanya Curry House has opened its first Singapore outlet at 313@Somerset, bringing new-found attention to the basement 3 food hall. Besides...
One of my favourite places to enjoy casual seafood is Fish & Co.. Personally, I find their cheese-filled Swiss fish and chips to be the best in town (though so far nothing quite trumps the version at The Offshore in Bangkok). During the holy month of Ramadan, the restaurant chain...
It’s been a crazy few weeks at the Sparklette headquarters. In between some web design projects, I have been getting in touch with companies to sponsor awesome prizes for the contests here (Why, haven’t you noticed the increasing frequency of these giveaways? *wink*). When things get so busy, you may...
If you think that burgers are junk food, think again. At gourmet burger joint The Handburger, the burgers are made of all-natural ingredients. Run by the same people behind the soup chain, The Soup Spoon, The Handburger has two outlets in Singapore, including its newly renovated flagship restaurant at Raffles...

Back in my Junior College days when we didn’t have much money, gatherings with friends were limited to meals at McDonald’s. Only on special occasions, like when it’s someone’s birthday, would we enjoy the rare treat of dining at places like Fish & Co. I remember there was once when...
One Sunday afternoon, I chilled out at Brotzeit. It’s a German bar restaurant at VivoCity. Enjoying a good ol’ German beer in the alfresco area overlooking the sea (with Sentosa in the distance) was totally relaxing! Credit Seriously, nothing beats having a stress-free day drinking beer by the sea. Since...
After closing its two franchise outlets here and being briefly absent from the Singapore restaurant scene, the Swiss chain of Marché restaurants is back! It has returned with a spanking new restaurant at VivoCity and a second outlet at 313@Somerset. Unlike before when it was run by a local franchisee,...
