📍Chin Chin Eating House (Purvis St)
The chicken is so on point, tender and juicy, chilli and ginger with dark soya sauce is a must, be mindful, the chilli is quite spicy, giving you the kick.
The hainanese chap chye and hotplate tofu are not bad, can order.
As for the cereal prawns, not bad as the prawns are quite plump but I wouldn’t say it is cereal prawns as I couldn’t really taste the cereal.
Overall, decent.
Damage: $71

📍SushiGuren
The 13-course omakase (i.e. Tasting Course) for $48+ is really quite a steal!
Fresh sashimi (seabream, swordfish, squid, tuna, shirm etc), aburi fish liver, chawanmushi, etc
The broth is made from the fish bones, bonito and kombu, looks light but flavourful!
Ending the meal with yuzu sorbet to refresh the palate, totally heaven…will definitely be back again.
A small cozy Jap restaurant, do make online reservation before heading over!
Damage: $63.80 (including yuzu shu)

📍Omnivore (The Sail)
Filling salad, loading protein with egg whites and chicken thigh, nice~
Damage: $10.90

📍The Sandwich Shop (Collyer Quay)
The tomato soup with meat balls is pretty decent, tasted a little sweet and sour, comforting food I would say.
Adding on the bacon and cheese baguette for a meal cos the soup alone isn’t that enough for me. The baguette was just right, not too hard to chew.
Overall, not bad.
Damage: $10.40

📍Wu Lao Lao
The signature ban mian was pretty decent, especially the chilli, suggest to take more of the chilli flakes to add-on the flavours.
The noodle was not too soft or hard, and the oozing egg yolk is a must~
Overall, decent lunch at CBD area.
Damage: $8.50

📍Boon Tong Kee Chicken Rice (Smith St)
The chicken is pretty nice, tender and having that jelly-like collagen underneath the skin, the rice is also quite on point, but apart from these, the rest of the dishes are rather disappointing.
For the price, there are better ones out there.
Damage: $86.30

📍Keming Bing Sat 克銘冰室
The char siew rice was decent, lean meat and fats ratio are just right, sauce is a little towards the sweet side, goes well with the egg, kailan (underneath the egg) and rice.
Find the toast and cute egglets a little overpriced, can skip the toast for it tasted norm, same for the egglets but at least the egglets are instagramworthy.
Lemon tea according to my fren, taste a little diluted, while I found the milk tea just nice, and not too sweet…
Overall, decent, can try but not worth queuing.
Damage: $34.87

📍Keisuke Ramen (Orchid Hotel)
- Red Spicy Tonkotsu (Special)🍜
Went for lighter soup base, less oil and hard noodle (yes, you can customise your order)…
Decent ramen, comfy food, standard still maintains after years since I last had it…
Free flow hard boiled eggs and beanspouts are always welcomed, nice sides~
Damage: $24.48 (incl. svc charge & GST)

📍Together & (Duxton)
- Flat White☕️
Decent flat white, medium roasted I would think, nutty finish, not bad at all…
Nice cosy cafe, there’s a workspace, friendly barista, instagrammable too…

📍Lao Huo Tang (Seletar Mall)
- Buddha Jump Over Wall 佛跳牆🍲
- Deep Fried Grouper in Black Bean Sauce 香脆豆豉石斑魚🐟
- Handmade Deep Fried Prawn Roll 手工脆皮蝦棗🧆
- Stir-fry French Beans with Minced Meat 乾煸四季豆🥙
- Sweet & Sour Pork 咕嚕肉🍖
- Marmite Chicken 媽蜜雞🍗
- Crispy Cereal Prawn Ball 麥片蝦球🍤
- Fried Rice with Chinese Sausage 臘味炒飯🥡
The soup is great but the portion is a bit small, probably cater for 2-3 pax.
The fish is decent but thought it is a little salty cos of the starchy black bean sauce, would prefer if the sauce could be less starchy and less salty.
The prawn roll is quite disappointing, not crispy and not springy as I expected it to be, suggest to skip this.
Similarly, for the french bean and sweet and sour pork, not that fantastic, french bean is quite dry and not as flavourful, the sauce for the sweet and sour pork is also not on point, can taste abit of the pork gamey smell, can skip.
Marmite chicken is good, flavourful, crispy coating, can order this.
Cereal prawn is decent, but pretty small portion.
Fried rice is surprisingly not bad, we ordered 2 plates of it.
Note: The serving is pretty small, each plate like serves 2-3 pax only, hence, find it a little pricey for the portion. Would go elsewhere for better quality food.
