Since Olivia’s Burnt Cheesecake burst all over Instagram a couple of years ago, I was captivated by it and knew I had to visit this place someday. And I finally did, earlier this year for my birthday, thanks to some lovely friends. Upon entering the classy restaurant with warm, welcoming vibes, waiters swarmed us asking if we wanted still or sparkling, and kind of decided … Continue reading Olivia | Fine Flavours of Spain
I can’t even begin to explain how wonderful grilled fish is. When I try to imagine the flavours of the fish slowly being brought out in the heating process, its soft flesh sizzling, my mouth starts to water. So when I heard that Keisuke Takeda’s 19th restaurant (yes you read that right) specialises in authentic Japanese-style grilled fish ‘sumiyaki’ AND also has a free flow … Continue reading Charcoal-Grill and Salad Bar Keisuke | Delightful Mains and Free Flow Salad
I never really liked salads before. The idea of eating a bunch of green, healthy tasting stuff was not particularly appealing to me. Only when I decided that I must try to lose some weight/fat and get leaner/more muscular, that I began eating salads 2 to 3 times a week, sometimes more or less, depending on how soon a salsa performance was coming up. And … Continue reading The Daily Cut | Knows How to Serve A Satisfying Salad
Lobster + mayonnaise. What’s there not to love about that combination? So when I heard there was a new (okay by now, not so new) place in town selling delicious toasted buttery rolls stuffed with the meat of a whole lobster, I was sold on the idea. Thankfully, so was Z, and to celebrate our 2nd year together, we visited Pince & Pints on a Monday … Continue reading Pince & Pints, Duxton Road
So I just moved to a new office at The Metropolis in late January, and a friend recommended a nearby salad place to try for lunch. And oh boy, after trying it, I went back another two times that week! The concept is not new – a mix and match sort of thing, where you choose what kind of salad ingredients, dressing and toppings you … Continue reading The Lawn, Biopolis
I’ve only been to Greece once, and the visit was brief. A little jaunt to Athens for a salsa festival, with some lovely meals at little restaurants around where we were – namely, the Olympic stadium and the Acropolis. But I did remember having some very nice battered fried cheese and fresh tasting salads. And Blu Kouzina, the first full Greek restaurant in Singapore, authentically … Continue reading [Moved] Blu Kouzina, Bukit Timah
Hello everyone, Merry (third day of) Christmas! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas this year. I had a pretty good one – in fact, I enjoyed the simple, yummy lunch I had on Christmas Day itself so much that I decided to churn out a quick post about it. Headed to Omakase (Japanese for “Chef’s choice” or “let the chef decide”) Burger on Tuesday with the boyfriend after hearing good things … Continue reading Omakase Burger, Turf City
So I heard from somewhere, that there exists an Italian cuisine buffet in Singapore that had parma ham, rock melon, gorgeous pastas and even foie gras. And of course, I just had to pay this place a visit. So for my birthday earlier this year, I chose to go to Basilico at Regent Hotel for a nice lunch. Upon entering the restaurant, I noticed that … Continue reading Basilico, The Regent Singapore
