Relaxing chill vibes Relaxing chill vibes. They even have sofas too Cant comment about the ice cream as we had alcohol. 12.90 for a bottle of soju, 3 for 30. Its on the 2nd floor, so take note

Good ice cream Premium flavours @ $5.20 with burpple beyond deal. We got hokkaido strawberry milk and apple yakult, flavours that are less found in other places. The former was mild and creamy, while the latter was a bit sour but refreshing. The serving was generous and enjoyable.

Double Scoop Besides the photo-worthy neon signs, Icebar offers a limited selection of gelatos with unique flavours. They are also open late till 2AM on Fridays to Sundays for you to get some late-night ice cream. The gelato here is priced at $4.20 for a classic scoop, $5.20 for premium, $6.20 for super premium flavours and additional scoops for $3.70. I went with their recommended flavour of grape Yakult (premium) which was supposed to be light on the palate while Binggrae banana (premium) for something milky. The grape Yakult flavour feels light with a very faint grape Yakult flavour. I would love it if they add more grape Yakult into it. The Binggrae banana was creamy and milky, something expectable and not too far off from the actual beverage. Thanks to Burpple Beyond, we get to enjoy 2 Scoops for the price of 1 ✌ (U.P $5.20/scoop)

Finally drop by to @houseofchirashisg after heard good review about their affordable fresh chirasi don. I ordered Salmon spicy ikura don. Sliced salmon torched served with spicy sauce ikura, tobiko, ebi and salmon skin. 📍House of Chirasi. 430 Upper Changi rd, #01-05

🍤 Small restaurant but ample space between tables. Fish was fresh and the sushi rice was unconventional 😬

PRETTIEST BARA DON ($18.80) I’VE EVER HAD do you see those flower petals🌸🌸 can i just say how THICK the sashimi cubes were omg. okay but they missed out my tamago wtf. & the rice was literally a THIN LAYER, enough to cover the bottom of the bowl

Kaya Toast Set [$3] Was craving for kaya toast and found Toast Hut at Old Airport. Added an extra giant bun ($1.40) and it was decently fluffy, though a tiny bit sweeter than we would have liked. Toast had a good crunch, but our favourite was the super fragrant teh!

Breakfast Set An average breakfast set that consists of toasted bread, soft boiled eggs and a cup of kopi / teh. The toasted bread wasn’t that crispy, not really worth the 20mins wait. (S$3)

The reason for waking up every Saturday to run at east coast park. I must admit, when the training venue changes to other parts of town, I am less motivated to wake up 😂. This amazing toast set (I have featured a few times) was from Toast Hut, #01-52. And I just found out today that they do sell out of their toasts by afternoon!

Honey butter coat korean fried chicken S$ 20.40 Crispy chicken wings topped with honey butter powder. It taste like korean famous honey butter almond snack. Very satisfying and addictive.

Honey garlic korean fried chicken S$ 20.40 Crispy and crunchyp chicken wing coated in garlic sauce. Have a little bit too strong garlic smell for me but I still love it.

Real Chicago pizza S$ 32.90 Soft pizza bread with super thick layer of melty cheese in the middle. Definition of satisfaction.

Quality Nanjing food! Step into Nanjing Impressions, and you’ll feel transported to ancient China. The meticulously designed interiors, adorned with wooden panels and glowing red lanterns, create an ambiance that immerses you in tradition and elegance. The meal begins with the Osmanthus Scented Sponge Cake, a light and airy dessert infused with a subtle floral sweetness that is both refreshing and delightful. The Celestial Duck Dumplings are beautifully crafted, with silky wrappers encasing a rich and savory duck filling that melts in your mouth. The Steamed Glutinous Rice with Pork is a standout Jiangnan dish, featuring hand-picked glutinous rice layered with slices of premium belly pork. After three hours in the steamer, the flavors meld into an aromatic, tender dish that is as comforting as it is flavorful. The Sesame Beancurd Julienne offers a unique balance of textures, pairing soft strands of beancurd with a nutty sesame dressing for a light yet satisfying option. For those who enjoy bolder flavors, the Palace Chicken with Pickled Chilli delivers tender chicken pieces coated in a tangy, fiery marinade that leaves a memorable kick. A highlight of the menu is Mdm Chiang's Beauty Porridge, a dessert-like dish with a rich history. Known as Meiling Congee, it originated during the Republic of China era, combining fragrant rice and soy milk into a velvety, lightly sweet porridge. It’s an elegant and soothing finish to a rich meal. The Signature Salted Duck, another must-try, is expertly seasoned and tender, showcasing the beauty of simple, traditional flavors. Finally, the Chrysanthemum Tea ties everything together with its floral aroma, offering a refreshing conclusion to the feast.

Nanjing Impressions (Plaza Singapura) 9 Feb’22, Wed🌧 📍Nanjing Impressions (Plaza Singapura) - Madam Chiang’s Nutritious Beauty Porridge🥣 - Jinling Roast Duck🍗 - Sesame-scented Beancurd Julienne🍮 - Osmanthus-scented Steamed Sponge🌼 - Nanjing Chilled Vegetarian Delights🥗 - Steamed Shrimp & Silky Gourd Dumpling🥟 - Fa Cai Abalone Yu Sheng (not in pic)🥢 - Nanjing Yuhua Tea (not in pic)🍵 Impressed by the sesame beancurd julienne! The beancurd was so thinly sliced, the fragrance of the sesame smell and the savoury sauce, as well as the dried shrimps, all of these went very well with the beancurd, not too salty, what a nice combi, yum! Unlike the usual savoury porridge that I expected, the beauty porridge was something like sweet (but not too sweet) soya bean soup base with lily and water chestnut, the rice was almost not visible to eyes, quite a surprise dish eh! The xlb was unlike the usual pork meat xlb, the shrimp with silky gourd filling was quite on point, natural sweetness from the shrimp and moist silky gourd, something different for a change! The veg cold dish was quite decent, various veg mixed together with sesame oil and not too salty, feeling healthy eating this~ The roast duck was quite decent, quite tender, no gamey smell, just that find the sauce a little diluted, else it will be perfect… The osmanthus steam sponge was a little too sticky and chewy to my likings, but taste wise, it’s pretty good, not too sweet and each mouthful was filled with osmanthus smell… Overall, the taste of each dishes was quite well balanced, not too sweet/ salty, wouldn’t mind coming back again, it would be perfect if each dish’s portion could be a little bigger… Damage: $121.35

Nanjing Food Every time I am in Nanjing, the capital city of Jiangsu province, I will go to a restaurant that offers Nanjing street food at reasonable prices - Nanjing Da Pai Dang. This chain of restaurant has many outlets and they offer exactly the same food, taste, decor, service, with the leading staff who wears ancient Chinese costume with a funny Mandarin hat and waitresses in ancient Chinese clothes. Imagine my surprise when I heard they opened a branch in Singapore. And they have replicated the decor and uniforms, even down to the leading staff with the Mandarin hat. Okay so the menu is very much reduced in terms of items compared with their cousins in Nanjing but the ubiquitous Salty Braised Duck, Smoked Duck, LionHead Meatball, Bean Curd in Brine, Pork Trotters in Dark Sauce, these are all available. And the taste did not disappoint. I think I will come again whenever I miss Nanjing food or introduce this novelty to friends.

Absolutely loved the coffee here! Hidden in a neighbourhood in Boon Keng lies this pretty chill looking cafe which we happened to chance upon as we wanted coffee. I must say our expectations came tumbling down as the service isn't friendly as we ordered our coffee. Our opinions definitely changed when we tried their coffee. Their Iced Brown ($6) or Iced Mocha was incredibly smooth, with the strong coffee complementary their chocolate sauce very well. Both their coffee and chocolate were definitely of good quality and we were surprised how the coffee isn't dry or sour at the end! A very good brew, perhaps the best I've had yet. Their Yuan Yang Affrogato ($6.80) consist of their Earl Grey Gelato with an espresso shot. Those 2 flavours definitely complemented really well, as the smooth aromatic coffee notes were augmented with some floral notes coming from the Earl Grey. So glad they managed to make the Earl Grey flavour strong and yet not too perfume like! Definitely one of my top coffee places, as I can see that they do put a huge emphasis on their coffee. Perhaps maybe their service can be a little better, to make the whole experience a completely wonderful one 😊

Cereal Milk + Hazelnut Nutella Returned again, this time to try their non-premium flavours. Cereal milk was surprisingly good. The Cereal bits made the gelato a little chewier. Overall tasted quite good. Hazelnut Nutella was flavourful. So far 4 flavours tasted here and 4 winners already.

Pistachio + Biscoff Gelato A minimalist Cafe located at Whampoa West Old hdb Estate, Slickshots serves a plethora of items, from gelato, waffles, coffee, cakes, bakes, eggs etc etc. But their Gelato just stands out, and the Pistachio is the most stand out. A quick Google search on this place shows that the Pistachio is the most reviewed ice cream flavour here. It was creamy and thick and nutty. So great. A must have when u eating gelato here.

Grilled Chicken With Truffle Sauce Takeaway from Professor Brawn!! Have been wanting to support this social enterprise and I must say it didn’t disappoint! It really tasted so much better than the photo haha truffle sauce was packed separately - the truffle was a nice palatable tinge that wasn’t overwhelming that I finished the entire dip, grilled chicken was juicy and the skin was so crispy! Wedges and salad were good :-)

Since Singaporeans can’t really travel, why not explore some of the well hidden cafes and do something good at the same time?

Over the largest outlet at Enabling Village (near Redhill), the bistro specifically employs staff with intellectual and hearing disabilities. f you are looking for a fuller meal, some Western style mains you can expect include Prof’s Signature Fish n Chips ($13.90), Pan Seared Norwegian Salmon ($18.90), Grilled Chicken with Truffle Sauce ($12.90), Pan Grilled Striploin Steak ($20.90), and Spaghetti Vongole ($14.90). Lovely space, friendly people, and with moist cakes as well. bit.ly/sgcafes #DFDCakes

Dog friendly with decent food Not a lot of options on the dinner menu, maybe cos it’s the weekend in cbd. Mostly just burgers & a cold pasta. Thankfully the food was all decent! We also had the portobello burger, patty & portobello were both generous, and who can resist that stick of bacon! The sticky date pudding was also surprisingly enjoyable, the maple and ice cream were really good! Washed down with peach lindemans beer.

CHOCOLATE & ZUCCHINI BROWNIES Brownie is thick, moist and fluffy; didn't really taste the zucchini; not too sweet..

OATS & BANANA CAKE Thick slice of fluffy cake that is not too sweet; a tad dry though; seems simple and plain but strong banana taste; love the berries compote sauce at the side that is appetising..

QUINTESSENTIAL AVO Loads of avocado and smoked salmon chunks on a slice of well-toasted sourdough bread; salmon is fresh and well marinated with ponzu sauce; bread is crispy outside and fluffy inside; love the poached egg on the toast..

Afternoon tea set Upscale casual restaurant that celebrates Southeast Asian flavours and crossroads. Starting with savory, we enjoyed the 𝐁𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐨𝐰 𝐓𝐨𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐰/ 𝐂𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐚𝐫, an indulgent buttery and creamy bite. The 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐧 𝐆𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐞 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐭𝐜𝐡 𝐄𝐠𝐠 was a mix of rendang with oozy egg and a crispy breading. Rich and flavourful with a strong spicy kick. The 𝐊𝐮𝐞𝐡 𝐏𝐢𝐞 𝐓𝐞𝐞 was generously packed and balanced but did wish for the shell to be more crisp. Moving on to sweet, 𝐌𝐞𝐝𝐣𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐞 & 𝐌𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐡’𝐬 𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐞𝐬𝐞 was a delightful sweet and savory mix of feta cheese and date encased in crispy and flaky pastry. Our personal favourite was the mango sticky rice. Also had the classic traditional kuehs of 𝐊𝐮𝐞𝐡 𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐭 and 𝐊𝐮𝐞𝐡 𝐊𝐨 𝐒𝐰𝐞𝐞. Comes with free flow tea or coffee. We enjoyed the chai which had a spicy finish, and the natural tasting rooibos. Found the matcha on the powdery and almost grassy side. 📍@hathawaysingapore, 01-37, 13 Dempsey Road, Singapore

Squid and prawn The squid and prawns is grilled. Can taste the BBQ smell when chewing it

Naan set Nothing special about this dish
