For the grand finale, a handroll filled with with rich and creamy Mursaki Uni. Very generous portions given by Kimura san!

You get 10 pieces of sushi with other side dishes such as chawamushi and desserts for $120. I really like the Akami presented here, simple and pristine.

Finally got to try the original Ah Hoe Mee Pok in West Coast. Unlike the other branches, the original does not have any Japanese Ramen variations. However, they still employ Japanese techniques and methodologies in the preparation of the noodles. The results are a deeply flavourful and al dente noodles. The addition of seafood like fresh prawns and abalone makes it even more luxurious. However, the star in that bowl has to be the Her Kiow or fish paste dumpling. The soup was also robustly delicious, an excellent complement to the noodles!

What I like about Mr Lorbak is that the sauce is great. The sauce is the crux as the meat will have to soak up all its goodness as it braises in it. Here, the sauce is very well balanced. Subtle Herbal aromatic with a deep savoury soya sauce base. The meat is also very well cooked. It's Tender and it melts in your mouth. My only gripe is the fungus. I not a fan of fungus in general so will give that a miss the next time. Most importantly, it's great value for money at $3.50 for such quality of food. Additional sides like peanuts, mushrooms or tau pok are available at 50 cts each.

A lunch time only special here at Yatagarasu. Each order is made fresh a la minute when you order. Fluffy scrambled eggs, chicken, drenched in a sweet and savoury sauce. They top it off with a glorious yolk right on top. I really liked this bowl of Oyakodon. Simple and delicious. I wouldn't mind coming for this again!

Probably one of the best Mee Rebus you can find in Singapore. The gravy is so rich and flavourful here. What makes its extra special is the drizzle of satay sauce to add an extra oomph to the dish. I like to order mine with an extra juicy chicken drumstick to make this dish even more power packed!

A 64 degree duck egg sitting on top of heritage Galuh Rice grown in Bali, garlic, snails and wild flowers. Probably one my favourite dish from this trip to Bali. So simple yet so Delish. The creamy yolk just ties everything together. Always a delight to return to a restaurant like Locavore and see how they have grown and evolved. Loving the emphasis on using more local produce and highlight local flavours. Locavore is a die die must visit if you are heading to Bali. Reservations must be made 1-2 months in advance now.

Ever since moving to the west, it's been harder to travel east to visit Song Kee for Fishball Noodles. In my search for a worthy replacement in the west, I heard many recommendations for Soon Wah. They are hawker legends that originated from the Orchard/ Koek Road street stalls.Their Her kiao and fishballs are all handmade from scratch here. The use of "tee poh" or dried sole fish in their dumplings just takes them to another level. I really enjoyed eating the dumplings and fishballs here. The noodles are also cooked to perfection here. It's a really close fight between Song Kee and Soon Wah for me. By Proximity, I will definitely visit Soon Wah for the convenience. Probably one of the few stalls worth visiting at Newton food center!

Hua Kee is one of the many famous stalls at Redhill market. Many foodies consider them to be one of the best Chicken rice in Singapore. I arrived at 11am and there was queue of 10 people waiting in line. It took me about 30mins before I could place my order. Hua Kee opens at 9.30am so you technically can eat chicken rice for breakfast if you come early enough. The chicken here is poached to perfection, the meat was juicy and tender.!The rice itself was fragrant and fluffy too. A great combination with their Chilli sauce. This is indeed a very good plate of chicken rice and I can see why many people are raving about it. I would definitely love to come back again!

Congrats to Gaggan for retaining their crown in Asia again. Always a delight to dine here. Chef Anand's creativity continues to push boundaries. Here is one of the interesting and quirky dish he served up at my last visit. Aptly named "Brain Damage", it's actually a macaron powdered with dehydrated tomatoes and Lambs' Brain mousse as it's filling! Mind bogglingly delicious!!😊
