This pencai is the Paradise group's Grandeur Treasure Pot and contained the usual suspects (abalone, dried oysters, dried and fresh scallips, sea cucumbers, mushrooms, facai, fish maw, pig trotters, duck) but my absolute favourite is the beancurd skin which soaked up everything in the pot and tasted so sinfully delicious.
Glad to have revisited this place after a pretty long while!
For dinner, we had (1) baby popcorn with smoked miso, (2) padron peppers, (3) beetroot with radichio, (4) burrata with pickled chili and heirloom tomatoes, (5) cauliflower with barley and tete de moine (a great veg option!), (6) organic smoked duck with burnt carrot and (7) chocolate parfait with sze chuan meringue and pickled cherries.
Mustard, onions and pastrami is always a great combination!
This cafe-florist place is so pretty and the food is yummy too! Helps that it opens early (8am) and became our well-deserved treat for our early morn volunteering at the soup kitchen.
We had Nicole's Favour (its big breakfast option), Smoked Duck Ciabatta and its original souffle pancakes!
Its a great palate and introduction to various indian dishes, def more than what i know. Def worth the hype!
For dinner, we had the very appetizing spiced ceviche with coconut sothi, the flavourful crispy pork with sambal aioli, the house special of mutton in donut, delicious butter mushroom naan with paneer cheese, yummy crunchy smoked eggplant pajeri, hearty sri lankan crab curry rice and ending off with two great indian fusion desserts - carrot hawla kulfi with coffee honeycomb and basil and masala caramel tart with darjeelinb sorbet.
We had padron peppers with burrata, smoked eggplant with sourdough, charcoal steak, crispy artichoke and smokey lamb cutlets. The woodfire label meant the meats are smoked pretty well and def worth a try! Another great mention is the wine list which is v affordable and pretty yummy too.
This was at Burn, located at 21 Club Street
We started with complimentary round of shots, had lots of yummy food and ended with copious amt of pretty good and affordable sake!
We had the chili mantou, babasan salad, okonomiyaki, sambal stingray, prata maki, mee siam belly, salmon skin and squid ink fries. Not featured: 1.8l of sake at $80!
Surprisingly not filled with too much greens and carried a great crunch with the nuts and cucumber and a nice flavour with the spiced hummus.
This place has a great variety of healthy eats and even have kombucha (in various flavours) on tap. Definitely lived up to its rep of having the healthiest food in CBD.
We went for a second round of dessert because there's always room for desserts and because KAP (even without Macs) is still a great place to chit chat nonstop and catch up with one of my oldest friends!
Back here after a really long time and catching up with friends I've known for over a decade. Guess I can say its a pretty good way to have my last Friday lunch of the decade!
We had a great variety of dim sum but the stir-fried/deep fried options (in these pics) definitely stood out - mainly the signature XO carrot cake, deep fried squid tentacles and sze chuan pepper with white bait!
Hands down the best tasted to-date. The gula melaka bits literally take the cake - it made the cake really sweet (perhaps too sweet for some) and really sinful!
Not captured: the burst of chocolatey goodness inside the fried mochi.
This is one of the few cafes which serve up consistent good food and im glad to have a final meal here before this place closes for good end of this year. I still remember the cafe first started as part of the series of brunch cafes popping up but it stood out with the amazing yeast waffles which it continued to retain and expand further into fusion meals and a quirky desserts. Hopefully the cafe will find new form somewhere else in sg!
