This is my second time to Tom’s Citizoom Mee Pok Tar, and I was caught a little by surprised when Tom remembered who I was “Yes Daniel, what’s your order? How many hawkers remember their customer’s name after two visits? Tom is a 28-young old ‘Ah Boy” (he still looks like he is 22) who [...]

There behind an inconspicuous stall at the food court is this youngish-looking 30-something, who wears a straw hat, tight purple shirt, silver shoes and accessorized with a self-designed pendent. Never would you ever imagine that a former artistic director and fashion stylist would switch jobs to sell… yong tau foo! And at all places, a [...]

Old Bibik is a new stall at Lavender Food Square serving chicken and beef rendang, made from a secret recipe which has been passed down 3 generations.

Before I even start the review, we should first talk about being ‘pescetarian’ – those who abstain from eating all meat except fish and other forms of seafood in their diet. This café started with a mother’s love for her son. She wanted him to adopt a healthy diet and lifestyle since young and therefore [...]

This café selling mainly gourmet pies is probably the first of its kind in Singapore, recently opened at the unexplored Rochester Mall. I was initially skeptical, but were excited when I heard its offerings – Wagyu beef cheek, duck confit, lamb shank and intriguing laksa shepherd pies. This stylish 80-seater café is relatively huge, spreading [...]

Chocolate Origin has been known for its extremely chocolate cakes, and they have only 3 products in its shop – The original chocolate, dark and lava cake. This reminds me when Awfully Chocolate started out selling just chocolate cakes as well. While they have been dishing out chocolate goodness in Changi Village (who can be [...]
