Value For Money Donburi by Sushiro
My dad has been wanting to try the donburi (rice bowls) from Sushiro ever since he read the review in the Straits Times. Hence, we were all made to wake up early (by my standards at least) so that we could reach there around noon and avoid the crowd. Which I was surprised to see on a Tuesday. Sushiro at Thomson Plaza is known for their cheap Bara chirashi don (S$12.80) and they expanded to the other side of Thomson Plaza with this little nook called Takumi. That’s where we went to instead of the main restaurant because they close...
National Kitchen by Violet Oon
And so, one of Singapore’s famous food critic has set up her own restaurant and in the swanky new National Gallery no less! Sticking to her Peranakan roots, National Kitchen serves up Peranakan cuisine with slight twists on some of the dishes. There isn’t any pork in the menu but I did not spot any Halal certificate but if you’re one of those who aren’t too fussed, then this would be a good place for you to try very refined Peranakan food. My parents and I went there to celebrate my mum’s birthday as my parents previously tried to eat...
Korean Army Stew Buddaejjigae
Look what I’ve made! This is Buddaejjigae, which is literally translated as Army Stew and is a dish that was created during WW2 by the Korean soldiers who were relying on food rations from the USA. Being Asians, they made the American Spam, cocktail sausages and baked beans into something more palatable to the Korean tastebuds and my Korean friend told me that it is also meant to be very spicy. My parents had never eaten this before and they were quite surprised at how simple it really is. So these are some of the characteristic ingredients in a Korean...
Fight Back Salad
I recently did a health test that apparently measures one’s healthy by passing a biomagnetic wave through the body. It was pretty quick (2 minutes) and I had to meet up with the consultant to interpret the results from my test. Needless to say, we all know that this is a funnelling system and I went there fully prepared to be sold supplements or some health programme. But that’s not the point of this post. According to her interpretation of the results, my heart rate was too low (hello…doesn’t she know that athletes tend to have lower BP because their...
Mexican Delight With Barrio by Mex Out
I’m not a huge fan of Mexican food but I have to admit to a fondness towards grilled corn, tacos and guacamole. Mmm…avocado…yum! So I decided to check out Mex Out’s latest Barrio branch at Vivo City and here’s what we ordered. We went with 2 starters: Grilled Corn (top, S$7.90++) and fried Stuffed Jalepeno with Aioli sauce (below, S$8.40++). They call them ‘snacks’ and perhaps they could be and would go well with a pint of beer or a glass of wine. I wasn’t too impressed with the grilled corn and I think I might’ve been spoilt by the...
Seoul Yummy’s Cheese Stew
Friend was having a craving for the Korean Army Stew, which was how we ended up at Seoul Yummy (Westgate) and we saw that they were having Cheese Pot specials (S$52.90++ and meant for 2 pax). We ordered the chicken version instead of seafood and the above is how it came. With 5 different sections, they were filled with (from top, clockwise) egg mixture, kimchi, chicken dumplings, mozzarella cheese topped with corn and ebiko (prawn roe) and the middle was rice with seasoned chicken. As most hot pots or stews go, the fun is really in waiting for the food...
