One of my favourite places for pasta is Ambush. It is tucked within the gourmet section of the Takashimaya basement food court. Not only are the pastas affordable, they are super yummy too. In particular the seafood dishes, which I have a soft spot for. I like to call this...
Fish lovers would be spoilt for choice at codfish village. This neighbourhood stall in Toa Payoh, tucked at the first level of a HDB block, serves up more than 30 codfish dishes! With a name like this, you can certainly expect nothing less. Despite its humble location, the prices here...
Following my negative review of Ayam Bakar Ojolali in Lucky Plaza, several readers left comments urging me to visit another Indonesian eatery located within the same building – Ayam Penyet Ria. Ayam Penyet Ria is an Indonesian restaurant with franchises in Jakarta, Medan, Batam, Surabaya and now, Singapore. Apparently it...
There was a period of time when I travelled to Malaysia frequently. But due to work, I have stopped going there for over a year! Last weekend I finally went to Johor Bahru with a friend. New eateries have opened at City Square, a shopping mall there in which the...
Do you like toast? I happen to love it! Toast ranks right next to waffles and pancakes as one of my favourite snacks. With the commonest ingredients and a toaster (or charcoal), you can easily whip up some toast and it doesn’t even take much time. More importantly, it is...

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...
St James Power Station is the clubbing hotspots in town. It has been refurbished from an old power station. And that’s not all. This power station is also Singapore’s first coal-powered power plant and was built in 1927! That’s quite a bit of history isn’t it? Located at the Sentosa...
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”....
