After getting my pay, I straight away took a look at the citibank webpage to check for any 1 for 1 buffet promotions. And there I saw the Porridge Buffet at Orchard Parade Hotel.. and decided to bring J there for a treat. Well, the food is not that fantastic but is good for those old people i think. Lols. Goodwood Park porridge buffet is still the best ya..The desserts that they have... Cheng

This should be the most expensive teppanyaki I ever ate so far. Could have been more expensive if we ordered 2 "high class" set meals instead of one.We arrived quite early that day and strolled in circles (literally) before deciding to take Cheryl's recommendation. But we had got different objectives. While I was trying to spot for good food and ambience, L was trying to spot for the handsome

While doing all these, we often have to sacrifice our hot and juicy food as they eventually turn cold and dry after photo taking. This french loaf is the first thing served for us to munch on before the mains come in. The presentation kind of resembles the fries in Swensens and makes us want to think if it were fries then it would be better. I beieve the idea is to have some free teaser-appetizer

We had this bak kut teh 2 weeks ago but did not post until now because we lost some of the photos in between last post and this one. We wanted to post in a chronological way that's why we delayed this. Unfortunately, we still cannot find them. =(Initially L and I wanted to revisit the "Fisherman" fish and chips restaurant in the building across the street, but after we crossed over from Central (

After more than 4 years being together, we finally get to sit down as friends once again... nah, just joking. What we did was sat down inside Friends - The Food and Wine People.We found the prominent location further beyond holland road and along the main road which branches out where the landed properties lie. Friends @ Jelita, somewhat near sixth avenue. The restaurant can be seen from outside

This day we went with my uncles who are also very in love with luxury dining to the extent of visiting restaurants every week end. Once, we went "Top of the M" and spent about $200 per set meal for each of the four of us! That was so unbelievable for us who only earn measly salaries.Initially we thought the reservation at Sun with Moon was for only the few of us. But when we reached there, we saw

No more swiss food in Marche, here comes the japanese food in Shokudo!! Marche and Shokudo shares the similar idea of having a number of food stalls in a restaurant and charging by using card. The differences between these two eating places is the different types of cuisine and Shokudo has themed dining!The themes that they create is really interesting. They have old japan, modern japan, anime (

We were walking up and down from Esplanade to Marina Square and back to Raffles City and just couldn't decide on what to eat for dinner. In the end, I brought J back to the place where I had my lunch with my friends on the very same day - Streets Cafe which is located @ Raffles City Basement 1.The food are quite delicious except their drinks... because there isn't any of the drink can help us to

Ambush offers some higher class pasta experience than the mania one at about the same price. In short, it's a winner in all areas of comparison. Too bad we don't get commision for selling this.So there you go choose your pasta from a long list and it will be good to go as set meal or not. The set additions include a combination soup of the day and garlic bread or drink plus dessert. We had all of

Just as L and I were contemplating on the apparent lack of special dining places, we spotted the sign board "Ayam Penyat" across the street while waiting at the traffic light. Inconspicuously hidden under Fu Yuen Building (opposite Shaw Tower), is an Indonesian surprise.Given that it was already 8pm and it is hidden from view at the basement, we reckon that there were considerably many people

Valentine Day.. everybody queuing to eat dinner at the restaurants while me and J went to bugis FOODCOURT to avoid the crowd. And oh yes.. there were really not many people around and we really enjoyed our food. After the dinner, we gave ourselves dessert treats @ MOF.They serves a wide range of authentic Japanese food and appetizing desserts which are reasonably priced. They have other outlets

It was my 22nd birthday and we thought of going out to have a nice dinner. Oh well FEBRUARY is a torturous month for J, because my birthday falls on the 13th and the next day is Valentine day. Haha. We went to Vivo to look around for food.. and we took quite a long time to decide until we pass by this Thailand restaurant name Thai Accent. There were not much choices left so we just went in to

We just had our reunion dinner with our families this weekend and now we are going to let you take a peek at some special and nice dishes we had at the chinese restaurant.The thing on the table at every reunion must be the fish salad, and this year we thought it's special because it's the first time we have fried fish skin in it. Usually we would go dig for those crispy, bloated square "gold

It was another rainy Saturday afternoon and we had nothing better to do. Only, we remembered that there is an obscured "high class" cafe advertised in the HDB Tai Tai (HDB太太) show that we should really visit and put in our blog.Well, how can we not have the highly favoured shepherd pie, and so we have it here! This dessert, which we had it as appetiser, indeed lived up to its standard. The entire

Chinese New Year is coming around and we are helping to sell our favourite pineapple tarts right here.The people behind this have been making pineapple tarts for many years already. These homemade tarts are crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. Pop one into your mouth and you can feel it melt. It retains its taste and touch even after a few days. So it's not only a good treat for your New

Lacklustre service at Shokudo is however forgivable since they only started business not long ago. They explained it was some computer system error causing orders to be mixed up.Their concept of Japanese-Italian cuisine looked exactly like a Waruku clone. Inevitably, they are pitting themselves against a strong competitor and therefore we are going to have higher expectations the moment we step

It was very late at night already and we still have not eaten. We were watching seven swords (七剑) on TV, earnestly waiting for the final battle to commence. Suddenly, they tell us there is a mole and they have to hide in the caves first. Oh dear, how can they treat us like that! Just hurry up and get into battle! We have waited for too long and we cannot wait any longer - we must eat.Holland

At last finally we present our favorite NaNa Curry!! I remember that we used to have NaNa Curry almost every weekend regardless is it lunch or dinner. And we can just enjoy it so much even we're sick! NaNa Curry has the best curry in Singapore and they have several outlets selling Chicken, Mutton, Vegetable and Fish Curry islandwide. One of the best that many people recommend is the one at Bedok

On the second day of Christmas, my girlfriend gave to me, a $135.36 meal for TWO!~~ Forbidden City by IndoChine. (This should compensate for the Emporio Armani Shades the previous day)I thought IndoChine was a very good choice because we could avoid sore-throat-inducing food stuff. We had Scallops of the Southern Sea (Starter), Sauteed Abalone, Seafood of Supreme Harmony and 2 servings of Jasmine

It was Christmas, but we didn't get very excited this time round, because both of us were quite sick to go anywhere special. So we just shopped in and around Bugis Junction and feel very broke at the end of the day.We started our day at 6 pm, sharing a single Calm Chowder set at The Soup Spoon to whet our appetites. It came complete with an Iced Lemon Tea and a Mushrooms Sandwich.Then we made a

Today I played good boyfriend and went to see L after her work. She's a poor thing today with 4 ulcers in her mouth and so we didn't want to go for an expensive treat. Instead, we settled for the long awaited western stall at ABC.The stall first caught my eyes when I noticed the long queue of plates laid out and around the shelves, waiting to be filled with the baked and grilled. They are not the

On Saturday, we had a go at some very affordable buffet mini-steamboat near Raffles Place area. It's a quite a good place to hog with a bunch of friends. In fact there was one table of 10 good buddies and another family table of 8. But once again, there was only L and myself.The first thing I would like to confess after the first picture you see here is that we are totally ashamed of our

So exciting to have our first post on our long awaited journey in search of good food.I took an exam break when L asked me out for a quick lunch at Cineleisure. She wanted to introduce me to the very nice fried chicken there. Unfortunately, business was so good that they ran out of stock! Though it was quite dissapointing, it proved to be a good opportunity for us to try the other stuff on the
