I've been staying in the west side of Singapore for a while now, yet this underrated pizza place has somehow slipped past me all these years. This is an invited review, but I was genuinely impressed by the quality and variety this neighbourhood pizza spot has to offer in the…
My boyfriend and I both love Korean barbecue, and he brought me to Sodeng, a popular traditional KBBQ spot in Singapore, to celebrate our anniversary. There are two branches in Singapore, and we visited the one located along Telok Ayer Street. The restaurant is cosy and has limited seating, so…
Happy Lunar New Year 2026! My cousins and I visited this cafe in Ipoh for lunch on the third day of Chinese New Year ("大年初三 Da Nian Chu San"). From the outside, it looks rather unassuming. However, once inside, we were greeted by a cosy atmosphere. There are two floors,…
We visited this restaurant as a family for a Peranakan-style dinner. I usually have a soft spot for Nyonya dishes - rich, aromatic, and comforting - so expectations were fairly high. Here are the dishes we ordered: --- 🦐 Baba’s Udang Lemak Prawns (Small) Nyonya pineapple prawn curry in coconut…
I recently started watching Culinary Wars (Season 2) , and there was a master hidden among the Black Spoon contestants (among many other masters), Chef Ok Dongsik. He is known for selling Dweji Gomtang (Korean pork bone soup) in New York City, and his restaurant is always fully booked. The…
Looking back at my posts, there are many dishes I wouldn't have ordered if I were alone because I'm not that adventurous (what if I order something new and don't like it?!). I'm thankful to have friends who push me out of my comfort zone and try new dishes with…
I love Taiwanese Braised Pork Rice—otherwise called as Lu Rou Fan! After visiting a few Taiwanese food spots, I still think that this place serves my favourite Braised Pork Rice in Singapore. Price-wise, it is quite affordable. The Braised Pork Rice alone costs SGD6.90, but You get the whole set…

Craving freshly made, hot and cheesy pizza? Try Goldenroy - in fact, we returned as we had a great experience the first time 🤩 Pizza flavours (ranked by my favourites): Number 4: Scallops & Onions I realized I'm not really a scallop fan, so that ranked last on my list.…
A few friends and I visited Hello Arigato Cafe at Upper Thomson. My main dish was so delicious that I couldn't resist documenting it in my blog. Disclaimer: I didn't delve too deeply into my friends' main dishes, so take my overall review with a pinch of salt. The spotlight…

We did the NYE countdown and stayed another night on Sentosa Island. Since food around the RWS area was quite expensive, we had to look for more affordable options. Fortunately, we found Little Farms on the other side of the island, which was relatively cheaper, and we had these for…
Been wanting to go to Merci Marcel for a while, and finally visited on Christmas Eve. Surprisingly, it wasn’t crowded at all despite it being the eve of a public holiday. We ordered a starter and dessert from their seasonal festive menu, and a main from the regular dinner menu.…

Rise Bakehouse is a cafe chain with three branches in Singapore. Although they specialise in cakes and small bakes, interestingly, I haven’t tried any of those in my three visits to this Somerset outlet (yet). In fact, I’ve always ordered the dish below on every visit: 🦪 Scallop Rosé Rigatoni…
We went to Johor Bahru's Sunway Big Box Retail Park for a movie and a meal, but there were limited dining options here. So we tried this teppanyaki place with low expectations - and it turned out pretty good! 🐮 Itame Gyuniku Stir-fried beef belly slices + side dishes of…
There are two Pen & Inc. restaurants in Singapore, one on the NTU campus and the other at the NTU alumni house, each serving different cuisines: the NTU location specialises in Tex-Mex and Southwestern cuisine, while the NTU Alumni House spot focuses on Italian cuisine. It's worth noting that the…

Slightly pricier compared to the usual tze char stalls found in coffee shops, as this is an air-conditioned environment, which is perfect for sunny days. On a…
