Tokyo Food Guide - The Best Food & The Best Restaurants in Tokyo

photo kyubey best sushi omakase tokyo ginza.jpg
When Tokyo is mentioned in a conversation, it's more often than not that the topic is about food. While many rave about Ichiran, Afuri, Sushi Dai, Shake Shack, Red Rock, Luke's Lobster and some of the must-eats that Singaporeans always go for, I'm here with a list of recommendations that are not usually talked about. You most definitely should not miss them when you visit Tokyo!

20 Cafes in the Far West of Singapore That You've Never Heard Of

photo The Playground Coffee 1.jpg
Here are 21 cafes in the far west of Singapore that you probably have never heard of. And we mean the extreme west, like Pioneer to Dover so cafes in Holland Village and Bukit Timah are not covered in this listicle. The independent cafes featured are not part of any chains and are not located in shopping malls. If you're planning a cafe-hopping trip to the west side, our little list might be of help!

Pair the new creations with their signature smoothies, refreshing organic beverages and boutique wines that follow sustainable, organic and biodynamic practices, and you won't go wrong.

The Reading Room Cafe - Newly Launched Weekend Brunch

 photo The Reading Room 4.jpg
The Reading Room has been around for four years now and the quaint little cafe is a book cafe by day, and bar by night. The cafe is stocked full of books and vintage decorations. There's a little piece of Paris in this place and I like that very much.

Cook & Brew @ The Westin Singapore

 photo Cook amp Brew The Westin Singapore 2.jpg
I've heard so many good things about Cook & Brew on level 33 of The Westin! The romantic restaurant is known for an abundance of natural light streaming in in the day, great views of the Marina Bay area, brilliant interpretations of classic dishes, a wide selection of fine wines and more than a hundred different beers.

Olivia & Co @ Suntec City (between Towers 1 & 2)

 photo Olivia amp Co Suntec Soft Shell Crab Burger 1.jpg
The modern diner occupies an eye-catching spot right in the centre of the mall and sports an interesting industrial look, complete with vintage touches. Their menu is largely inspired by flavours from all over the world and this is evident in the cover of their menu where global iconic landmarks are pieced together meticulously. Being in a mall that sees large throngs of executives, Olivia & Co has lined up a cast of salads, superfood juices and sandwiches to cater to them too.

(CLOSED)Froth Reopens @ Ascott Raffles Place Singapore

 photo Froth Ascott Hotel Raffles Place 5.jpg
Froth has made a big move from BIG Hotel to Ascott in Raffles Place. The 140-seater, probably most known for its Taro Waffles, has not just a revamped facade, but a revamped menu too. Chef Derrick leads the kitchen team here and they're constantly looking to create dishes that juxtapose Eastern and Western flavours. The Seafood Tom Yum Risotto ($29.90) possessed a great texture and captured the tom yum flavours quite beautifully and was one of the highlights for me.

 photo burger joint singapore amoy street 10.jpg

All the way from New York and set to rock our shores, Burger Joint brings to the table obscenely affordable burgers. Coming to you on 3rd May, the team behind the burger sensation is all set to bring you the best burgers in town. They're using the same pickles, same cheese, same beef and basically, you're getting the exact same burger as what you will get in New York.

Awesome Sunday Brunch @ Humpback (Bukit Pasoh)


 photo humpback5.jpg
There are only a handful of restaurants that I've revisited and will revisit, and Humpback is one of the rare few. This is my third trip to Humpback and I am still impressed, and still amazed and still looking forward to dropping by again. This time round, I popped by for their spanking new Sunday brunch and while it was their first brunch shift ever, the charming space left little room for criticism.

The Chop House @ I12 Katong

 photo chophouse6.jpg

With a team of experts wholeheartedly committed to serving the tastiest fare at affordable prices, it's no wonder that The Chop House at VivoCity has achieved such astounding success. They have boldly invaded one of the most popular malls in the east to do what they do best. Are you ready for what they have to offer?

Needless to say, the meats here are outstanding. The USDA Prime Grain Fed Ribeye ($38) had a fantastic char, was beautifully pink in the middle and absolutely delish. Three different sauces and a tasty house-made onion jam accompany the juicy and tender cut of beef. A side of fresh watercress provided a refreshing kick to the dish. It is an unusual pairing but definitely one that works.

Oh My Tian @ Whampoa West

 photo ohmytian4.jpg
Oh My Tian is the work of the people who brought you the highly popular Hatter Street at Hougang. So if you're thinking that this plate of waffles looks incredibly familiar, it is because you probably have seen or tasted it before. We ordered a Whoaffles with Vanilla Icecream and Salted Caramel Sauce ($9.50) to share and it did not disappoint with that crisp exterior and dense insides. It is definitely one of the better waffles that I've had in Singapore. My only gripe was that a part of the waffles was slightly bitter and it might have been a tad burnt.

OverEasy @ Liat Towers


 photo thumb_PB300904_1024.jpg
Liat Towers extended a warm welcome to OverEasy, the ultimate all-American diner and bar. The first outlet's resounding success has given the Lo & Behold group more than sufficient confidence to bring OverEasy to a more central location where the cheery vibes, bubblegum colour scheme and old school Americana charm prove to be exceedingly charming.

#TrySomethingNew @ Nando's

 photo P9169031.jpg
Nando's has 11 outlets in Singapore and they're always packed during meal times. So if you frequent Nando's or are in love with their PERI PERI sauce, you'll definitely be more than pleased to know that Nando's has launched twenty new items! I visited the two-storey outlet at Junction 8, which is fully furnished with furniture, artwork and crockery from Africa. Great vibes, spacious venue, and a wonderful destination for an after-work gathering.

Bellini Canella @ Burgers VS Wings + Bar


 photo P6155416.jpg
Besides the unique burgers and yummy starters served at Burgers VS Wings + Bar, the star of the night was most definitely these bottles of Bellini Canella that was created in 1948 in a bar in Venice. Complete with a minimalistic packaging, the Bellini Canella is a no frills and unpretentious bottle of natural goodness. Vastly different from the Bellini cocktails that we get in bars, Bellini Canella contains fresh white peaches that have been experimented to withstand the test of time in the bottle. Fresh white peaches are the defining ingredient in an authentic Bellini and because they are so rare and expensive, the Bellini cocktails that we find in bars usually contain peach syrup or yellow peaches instead.

The Bravery @ 66 Horne Road


 photo P5184720.jpg
Its been a long long time since I last paid a visit to The Bravery but we decided to head there for brunch one Monday morning! I've always remembered the pancakes to be yummy so I recommended that to my partner-in-crime for the day while I grabbed a burger. Burger at 10am? Yupp, that's how I roll.

Rise & Grind Coffee Co


 photo P5244896.jpg
The new kid in the Bukit Timah neighbourhood, Rise & Grind has been drawing a great amount of attention to the very old Bukit Timah Plaza. There's hardly any reason for me to go there except for some late night pool but Rise & Grind is almost reason enough for me to make a trip there specially. Because, that Tom Yum Pasta.

Ah B Cafe & Pawlicious


 photo P4124017.jpg
HAPPY FIFTH BIRTHDAY TO MY ONE TRUE LOVE AND THE LOVE OF MY LIFE!!! Waffles the Maltese (IG @ wafflesthemaltese) just turned five and we held a birthday party for him, as usual. We pick a new dog cafe to go to every year and this year we've decided to pop by Ah B Cafe at Sunny Heights! Sunny Heights used to be K9 Kulture where I worked as a dog handler for about 10 months. It's essentially a dog daycare plus boarding place where there's a pool for your pooches too!
