If you are in the Bukit Merah vicinity and you happen to be craving for a warm plate of Hainanese chicken rice, head over to Sin Heng Kee Hainanese Chicken Rice at ABC Brickworks Market & Food Centre. This friendly family-run stall sells some of the cheapest and yummiest chicken...
I have been contemplating whether to spend any time blogging on The Mushroom Pot. My dining experience at this restaurant was so excruciatingly bad I didn’t really want to remember it, much less write about it. But then I decided – because it was so bad, all the more I...
I have been missing Niqqi’s the Cheese Prata Shop ever since graduating from NUS. All NUS staff and undergraduates, especially the hostel residents, would no doubt be very familiar with the eatery. As it is open 24/7, this is a popular place to grab late night supper. When I paid...
I am not sure if you are aware of a place called Pasir Panjang Village. It is a row of shophouses that stands at the junction of South Buona Vista road and Pasir Panjang Road. Since 1993, it has been slated as a conservation site by the URA. The double...
At the distinctive Concourse Shopping Mall along Beach Road lies a comparatively nondescript restaurant, Wild Bamboo. I noticed its outdoor advertisement when I was passing by one evening.

The first time I had a Sizzler meal was at Siam Center in Bangkok. And that was real good – solid a la carte menu items plus its rockin’ salad bar. On Thursday evening we were at the Sizzler restaurant in Toa Payoh. I didn’t realise there were only two...
Ever since the ABC Market closed for revamp some time in 2005, it’s been quite a headache finding dinner in the neighbourhood. Most of the time my Mom and I go to Alexandra Village. Last night, we decided to pay the zi char (home-cooked fare) stall at Redhill Kafetien a...
A friend and I were at Khansama Tandoori Restaurant, a two-storey eatery in Little India that serves authentic North Indian delicacies. The alfresco dining area on the ground floor was brimming with customers, mostly tourists. We were escorted to the second level that had air conditioning, purple walls and few...
On the third level of Wheelock Place lies a restaurant, named rather curiously, the Sun with Moon Japanese Dining & Café. We were there on a Friday evening and it wasn’t easy to get seats since we did not have any prior reservation. We were put on a waiting list...
