Chuan Wang Ji @ Santa Grand Hotel (East Coast)
Chuan Wang Ji is just a couple of weeks old but they have already garnered a loyal following who come by specially for their spicy Sze Chuan dishes. The first thought that comes to mind when one mentions Sze Chuan food is probably the crazy levels of spiciness present in every dish. Little do we know that there are actually dishes that do not employ the use of hot spices. Most of the spices used in the preparation of the food are imported from China, heightening the authenticity of the cuisine served here

Nestled in a corner on Mohamed Sultan Road, the relatively young Ippin Cafe Bar has ambition to be a homely restaurant and bar.

The latest project by The Breadtalk Group has sprouted up at the current hot sensation, Capitol Piazza. The 2-storey 80-seater is a little shy of a month old but it has rocked the food scene with its selection of fusion cuisine with a Southeast Asian touch.

Rise & Grind Coffee Co
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.

Yoruton Ramen @ Chabuton
Amidst the numerous ramen chains that have expanded to our shores, Chabuton Ramen has prided itself in offering specialty ramen, exploring the endless possibilities that the simple Japanese noodle dish can take on
Chabuton has launched its latest Yoruton Ramen congruent to the opening of their fourth outlet at Millenia Walk. The first-ever ramen chef to earn a Michelin star, Chef Yasuji Morizumi has created this particular ramen with five levels of spiciness to cater to the Singaporean taste bud. At $12.90, the ramen is priced lower than most of the ramen in the market

Hungry Heroes @ 33 Tessensohn Road
When you let a Captain America fanatic pick a dinner venue, this has to be it. We came to Hungry Heroes all hungry and expectant. The place was very nicely dolled up with life sized superhero models, tons of pictures and figurines. However, we were greeted with rather poor service on arrival and it kinda did affect the rest of the meal.

FUKU Fine Fugu Kaiseki Restaurant @ Mohamed Sultan Road
Media Invite
Fugu (pufferfish) is known for its ability to poison and kill, should it be ingested without being cleaned properly and thoroughly. Many have stayed away from fugu as a result. I am one of them, having heard a story from an acquaintance about his near death experience with fugu. I kinda made a promise to myself to never try it. But when the fugu is completely treated in Japan before being flown over, passing the stringent import regulations of the AVA and being prepared by the only licensed fugu chef out of Japan in Asia, there's really no reason good enough to stop me from trying fugu.
There are more than 120 fugu species in the world but only about 20 are fit for consumption. The Torafugu, which is the most premium pufferfish of all, is served right here at FUKU. 100% safe and only the best. Fugu is available at FUKU all year round and every edible part of the prized fugu is employed in the preparation of various dishes

Choya Cocktails @ Neon Pigeon
Media Invite
Made from the ume fruit, Choya is an all-natural traditional Japanese liqueur that requires a year to produce. The ume fruit has been commonly mistaken as plum but it is in actual fact, very different from plum. Choya is typically enjoyed right from the bottle or on the rocks but how does a Choya cocktail sound?

The Carving Board
The Carving Board has taken the western part of our island by storm with its affordable and delectable selection. I popped by on Sunday night at 8pm and was the tenth person in the queue and little did I know that I would queue for 50 minutes just to place my order. Even though my food took about 20 minutes to arrive(which is short compared to the time I spent queuing), I was really unhappy about it. I mean, would you rather queue for 20 minutes and be able to sit down for 50 with your pals or would you rather stand and queue for 50 minutes and sit for 20? Well, I would rather the former.
That aside, I must say that the food was pretty good.

I was super excited about the opening of Cream & Custard. I was checking their instagram page everyday! I love love love cakes and I just couldn't wait to see what C&C has to offer. I popped by on their opening day after work for some sweet treats that I managed to reserve earlier in the day

Mrs Lee's Favourites @ TAO Seafood Asia
Media Invite
Why Mrs Lee's Favourites, you might think. All the dishes in this Mother's Day menu are refined versions of homecooked dishes that Chef Lee Tong Kuon cooks on a regular basis for his lovely wife. Aptly named, with a very sweet story behind it, the Mother's Day menu at TAO did not disappoint and left us belly full and very happy

Media Invite
When life presents you with such intensely marbled Kuroge Wagyu from Kagoshima, what do you do? Well, I took a few moments to admire its beauty and thank the Gods before entrusting the experts to cook this to perfection. Then, I prepared myself for the fireworks that were about to go off in my mouth. I've had alot of barbecued beef, having been in Korea for a month. And even the best one that we had, which was really damn good, didn't come close to this.

ANJALI CHOCOLAT has relocated from Pasarbella at Turf City to Loewen Road, next to Dempsey. With its new location, comes a spanking new chocolate studio, Temper. Tucked deep inside Loewen Road, this is not the easiest place to find, and impossible to get to without private transport but it might just be worth the effort if you're looking for premium chocolates crafted from the finest ingredients (think French butter, Belgian Chocolate etc).

Late to the party, but at least I'm finally here! Kinda waited for all the craze to die down first before making a trip here. Popped by for brunch with Derrick and Charleen on a Sunday afternoon and I was honestly shocked to see the place empty, save for a blogshop holding a photoshoot. I'd expected this place to be packed to the brim, especially with all the publicity that it had had and its celebrity owners.
