A friend and I were at Plaza Singapura scouring for a dining spot. There were plenty of options. Within the shopping mall there’s already The Manhattan Fish Market, ichiban sushi, indonesian BBQ at kopitiam and many more. And of course there’s Giraffe Bar across the road at Istana Park. I...
One of my favourite local delights is chicken satay (meat skewers), and it has to be the Muslim version. Somehow satay made by the Chinese just don’t seem to taste as good, perhaps due to a different use of spices. The best place to get good satay is probably Lau...
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...
In a recent post, I raved about the riverside Indonesian BBQ stall in Plaza Singapura. This is a stall I have been patronising for 5 to 6 years and I swear to god they have the best grilled chicken anywhere! After learning that the riverside Indonesian restaurant opposite Clarke Quay...
It was a night of glitz, free-flowing drinks and food-tasting of a brand new menu at the graze anniversary party. When it comes to food and ambience, graze certainly does not disappoint! As you guys know, I decided to spice things up a little. I wanted a blog reader to...
I bid farewell to my good friend, Fernando, yesterday. He would be doing his Master’s at the Vancouver Film School. That’s pretty cool, isn’t it? He’s one of the very few talented people I know that’s in the field of design, and one of the few friends that actually understand...
Whether you are a Singaporean or foreigner, you would find a very unique and traditional Singapore dining experience at the Singapore Heritage Restaurant. I am a sucker for all things vintage, so on the restaurant’s kind invitation, I brought Mommy dearest down for a food-tasting session. My first visit to...
Most foodies would have heard of this little dining establishment at Middle Road called Basil Alcove. This is a place known for its no frills fine-dining in a coffee shop environment. Unlike most fine-dining restaurants that charge astronomical prices for food that come in small portions, basil alcove charges much...
I must have eaten in three out of every four dining establishments at VivoCity. Yes, that is how often I go to that place. I would probably exhaust their dining options soon! But then again, new restaurants pop up every so often, such as The Mussel Guys. “The Mussel Guys”....
Having had such a wonderful and memorable Christmas dining experience at graze, I returned there on a different occasion barely a couple weeks later. Unfortunately it doesn’t open for lunch so Da Paolo, its adjacent neighbour at Rochester Park, played host to us instead. Comparing Rochester Park in daytime and...
