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.
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 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.
Hidden within NEWest is Birdfolks, a new spot that's especially proud of their fried chicken and rice bowls. With an interesting menu packed with a diverse range of offerings — from local tea and coffee to craft beers, and Japanese-inspired rice bowls to pancakes — Birdfolks hopes to draw more than just the residents in the area to their humble space.
