(CLOSED)OSTERIA BBR by Alain Ducasse - The Best New Restaurant in Singapore 2021

When BBR by Alain Ducasse first opened its doors at Raffles Hotel Singapore back in 2019, I was beyond excited. After trying the food and drinks for the very first time there, I was obsessed. I couldn't even get a reservation after the opening night. Unfortunately, shortly after their grand opening, covid hit and the spacious and beautiful restaurant had to close. It's been more than a year since and the restaurant has recently reopened as OSTERIA BBR by Alain Ducasse, focusing on ingredients sourced from the Italian Riviera.

Lady M Champagne Bar - Lady M's First Champagne Bar in the World has Opened in ION Orchard

 

Lady M is a household name. Most of all would have at least tried their signature mille crepe cakes, which  the brand is famous for, but have you tried their savoury items before? Well, I haven't, until I visited their newest and sixth outlet in Singapore, Lady M Champagne Bar, on the third level of ION Orchard. Furnished with plush seats, marble tables, and gold finishings, Lady M's first ever champagne bar in the world promises a luxurious tea time where patrons can indulge in delicious champagne, exquisite cakes and outlet-exclusive signatures.

Raffles Courtyard Teams Up With FatFuku to Present Outstanding Modern Peranakan Dishes

If you still haven't scored a highly-coveted seat at the table of FatFuku (Annette Tan), you might find yourself dancing to the news of her signature dishes making an appearance at Raffles Courtyard's second installation of collaborations with private dining chefs. Phase 2 Heightened Alert definitely dampened all our spirits, and FatFuku's exciting collaboration with Raffles Courtyard was put on a semi-hold, as a few of her dishes were made available for delivery via Raffles Grab and Go. Now that the restrictions have been gently lifted, and we can dine out in a small party of 2, it's time to make a reservation at Raffles Courtyard, because trust me, you wouldn't want to miss what FatFuku has in store. And you only have a little shy of 2 weeks (till 2 July) to snag a taste of Annette's inspiring and impressive modern takes on traditional Peranakan family recipes.

(CLOSED) Kitchen Hands - Best Meal Kit in Singapore (Tasty Food, Super Affordable, Free Delivery, No Prep, No Wastage)

Can you believe that I cooked this Squid Ink Paella in just 30 minutes??!?! Neither can I. I’m really so so happy to have found Kitchen Hands because they made me a "chef"! Who would have thought that I could whip up a grilled beef burrito, cheese hambagu, brown butter grilled fish and more all under 20 minutes? ABSOLUTELY INSANE.

I have been obsessed with Kitchen Hands ever since I first tried it in January. I've been a regular since, ordering the meal kits almost every week. For my first ever delivery from Kitchen Hands, I had the Thai Basil Pork Rice with Thai Fish Cakes, Grilled Beef Burrito, Spaghettini Alle Vongole, and Butter Chicken. AND, I WAS SOLD, right from the very first kit I tried.

I seriously love Kitchen Hands' meal kits — they are fuss-free, straightforward, easy, convenient, and EXTREMELY affordable.

Kakiin Oyster Bar - Cozy New Japanese Izakaya in Orchard Plaza with Good Food

Kakiin Oyster Bar is a cozy Japanese izakaya in Orchard Plaza which accommodates 8-10 people in each seating. We made a reservation online for the 615pm seating but realised that it was already half full when we got there punctually. I later realised that the seatings run from 530pm - 8pm, and from 815pm - 1030pm. As everyone is seated at the counter, we could all watch the Japanese chef, and his 2 assistants, hard at work while navigating skillfully around the tiny kitchen. Even though the space is small, it did not reek of oil, or left us smelling like a walking bbq or fryer after we were done with the meal.
