Welcome to Joo Chiat.

Not sweet at all so not my type.

Coffee Break with the colleagues, complete with Big Short Coffee’s current Spring 2025 menu!

No points for guessing what I got, because matcha items would always get my attention first. Hence, their Crema al Matcha ($9) was it for me. A decadent dessert in a cup with the slushie-like texture and balanced flavour of earthy matcha, sweet vanilla bean fragrance and delicate milky aroma. The crunchy coffee honeycomb toppings are the icing on the cake.

As a non-coffee drinker, I really enjoyed the Happy Harry ($8) as well. Love the gentle floral notes with the use of wildflowers rare honey, yummy red osmanthus jelly, layered with smooth blue pea flower cream and refreshing fresh coconut water as base. A thirst quencher to beat the heat~

There's always a fried chicken something, and here it is. Comes with slaw, romaine, maple syrup and chilli oil. Good!

I came quickly after seeing this new item. How to eat foie gras without torturing geese. Suggestive name too haha. Granted, the lab-grown foie gras isn't as strong as the real thing, but it's acceptable imo. Paired with beef skirt steak, cheddar, honey mustard and jalapeno relish. They went well together, but picking the All-Sorts bagel made things too complicated.

Real, large, crispy. But just a few pieces. Mouth still itchy.

One of more authentic and better Vietnamese restaurants in Singapore, with a long and diverse menu, ranging from family-style dishes, to bar food (eg. 10 different kinds of snails or other shell seafood), to street food, to the classical dishes well known to tourists (like phở, banh mì, spring rolls, etc). Reasonable pricing too.

One of the few places that serve both herbal and peppery BKT, and they’re good too. Always a Q at meal times, although service is very efficient so the wait is not long. Reasonable pricing for a non-hawker stall eating place.

Established by founder Aston Soon in October 2005, this casual steakhouse serves hearty Western dishes at reasonable prices.
