Pontian Wanton Noodles ( Holland )
Pontian wan tan mee are able to find almost every food court.

The noodle served here was actually pretty good, though I feel it is not the most prefect wan tan mee in singapore. i like it how they mix with just the right amount of black soy sauce, tasty yet not too salty. The toppings and other items were pretty decent as well and given very generously, and the deep fried prawn really offered value for money.

 

The char siu (bbq pork) is really good too, slightly different texture (rougher and less oily outer layer) than normal. Wantan are were pretty tasty and most interesting is they serve both fried and soup wantan with the noodle.

24 hours coffee place
Just OK 2012-03-26

EAT. ( Tiong Bahru )

 

i love noodles. especially the dry one.

EAT has a few branches around singapore. I have seen this eating house at couple of places and nothing special about it. What attract people is they actually open 24 hours a day! where you don't have to stuff yourself unhealthy fast food middle of the night and crave for something steaming hot.

I had a bowl of decent dry u mien from EAT. Overall the whole bowl of noodle are just normal and nothing to shout about.

Authentic Malaysian food
Smile 2012-03-26

JB Garden Seafood ( Joo Chiat )
I wasent to keen to come to this place where my friend been bugging me for the past few months for malaysian food.

Located at among all the seafood restaurant, JB garden seafood are the most cozy and not the most popular among them. Very simple coffee shop setting, not attractive at all with very less crowd.

i did not place order due to unfamilarity with this place. When they serve the food on the table, i can't stop myself spooning the food! I have not see anywhere selling tis authentic hakka dish, braised pork with vermicelli for quite a decade since the last i ate at my granny place. The other dish was 5 spice powder fried pork cutlet. it was so amazing and tasty! The bill comes up to about only 30 for 2 pax with drinks and some other small dishes.

Please go to this place and order yourself a mouth watering hakka cuisine.

Xiao Bar Wang ( Orchard )
Finding cheap eats in Ion orchard? this is definitely the best choice of all!

If you've ever been to Taipei and had the priviliege of sampling/getting sick from their numerous street food treats/night market offerings, this place where you can find something similar to the foodie you had before in taipei!

Portions are much bigger than other choices we have in singapore, at price at 3.80. Love how authentic it is, flavorful, and never get enough of it! What i like the most is actually they replace oyster to meatball because I'm not a fans of oyster!

Everything was really good here, i also highly recommended another comforting food which is Braised Pork Rice.

New coffee place
Just OK 2012-03-26

Selfish Gene Cafe ( Tanjong Pagar )
I came across this newly open cafe behind duxton a week ago thru magazine.

Tanjong pagar has became a hang out spot for coffee place where all the cafes and restaurant started to grow at this spot. Many people's criticism about this whole neighborhood getting way too crowded during peak hours are completely accurate. You are unable to get a proper table have a book and coffee on a peaceful weekend afternoon. cafe and coffee are always out of supply!

Selfish gene located few doors away from the famous plain cafe, it has spacious seating area where you will not find any problem getting a good spot for your reading. I had a cappuccino at sgd4.80, very standard price and nothing special about it. Will try on their food on next visit.

For the laksa
Smile 2012-03-22

TOAST BOX ( Boon Lay )
A heaping bowl of goodness: a flavourful coconut laksa booth for your spicy craving.

Long story short, this is my new favourite place for cheap eats with air conditioning. Laksa is solid here and the quality has always been consistent. The coconut curry soup base is fragrant but not heavy. what i like about it they serve with mee tai map, very chewy and not too soft, goes well with the gravy.

For only sgd5.50 comes with a huge cup of barley, all day long. a real steal.

Tips for you all, request for additional laksa gravy, you will not get enough of it!

 

Recommended Dish(es):
laksa

Spending:
Approximately
SGD 5.50

Authenthic white Lor Mee
Smile 2012-03-21

Ming Chung Restaurant ( Jalan Besar )
It is my first time trying the white Lor Mee. And this is the must try item in this place.

A very old school environment which gave people a very homey feeling while dine in. Their Lor met are made of flavourful broth top with many different ingredient which is resh clams, fresh prawn, pork slice, special tao pok, veggie, and others and the not forgetting the main ingredient, lor mee.

Other than that, fried lala is one of their signature dish where you can see every table will have it. I love how they cook the lala, where they still remain the freshness of the lala and never overcooked or covered them with other flavor.

Try to be there early to avoid disappointment. It can be very very crowded and we always have to share table with others just to have the food!

Affordable western food
Smile 2012-03-21

Botak Jones ( Toa Payoh )
I've been going to Botak Jones since they first opened, and for good reason. The food is delicious, the prices are affordable, and the service is amazing. My 1st visit to this to a payoh branch. We ordered each of us a set of western food. and i decided to try cajun chicken set which comes with 2 side dished.

The chicken is topped with a layer of melted cheese and their cajun sauce, an intensely garlicky, spicy, aromatic mixture that I find myself rather enamored with. Chicken is flavorful and juicy too. And not forgetting it was served with very big portion of side dishes. And the whole big plate of thing only cost me SGD8.90!

Meanwhile, If you want a cheap, yet tasty place to get fish and chips then this is the place to go!

 

P/s: the coleslow much tastier than kfc one.

BlueMist Cafe
Just OK 2012-03-21

Bluemist ( Tanjong Pagar )
As tanjong pager are getting bombard by all the cafes and restaurants now, blue mist which located at amara hotel are still able to keep up the standard with their food even after re-opened.

I use to have lunch over there and went back last week to pay a visit. As usual their services are prompt and efficient, cheerful staff which never bring a frown to customer and able to deliver what we requested.

I had a Grilled dory fish set for lunch, value for money for the portion they served. Definitely a place worth trying.

A glimpse of the view
Just OK 2012-03-21

Pacific Coffee Company ( Telok Blangah )

This location is near my place, so I come in almost all the time after work.

This place wins on a few fronts: location, view, efficiency and friendly service. If I just need a solid latte and don't want to stick around after a busy day, this is my go-to spot, and I know the crew is always able to bring you their cheerfulness into you.

I love how they have an outdoor balcony-like area for use to catch a glimpse of the sentosa view. Where you can laid back and read a books having coffee by the shores for breeze.

Pacific Coffee Company not the most popular one among all of the coffee shop but despite the location and the wide space they have in their store, it does catch a heart of consumer.

Cappuccino, awesome. Chocolate danish, not so nice.

English Breakfast Latte
Just OK 2012-03-21

The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf ( Orchard )
CBTL offers me a good, dependable cup of joe at a decent price. Service was excellent. The people that work there are really nice and helpful. Thats how i find this place comfy for me to meet up my clients compare to the rest of the crowded and noisy cafes.

Lately i got so addicted with their English Breakfast Latte. It is the best latte i ever had, Adding just the right amount of half and half milk and tea and still able to have the english breakfast scent. I have never get a right combination tea latte in my life until i tried this.

I would get one everyday if i able to spend this much on daily basic. hehe

2nd review on baskin robbin
Smile 2012-03-21

Baskin Robbins ( Novena )
As mentioned on my 1st review i will come back for my pint size butter pecan and gold medal ribbon ice cream and i finally made it with my ice cream fanatic friend!

This round time we did also tried Pistachio Almond. A unique flavor, nicely dense texture, with the occasional crunch from the almonds. Baskin Robbins ice cream offers a large selection of ice cream and it's delicious. I find that the consistency of the ice cream and the right blend.

Oooooh my goodness. It was delicious. So so fudgy, and creamy, and wonderful.

Best for baked rice
Just OK 2012-03-21

tcc - The Connoisseur Concerto ( City Hall )
TCC are well known for their coffee and dessert. But what surprised me that they actually served real enjoyable comfort food as well!

One of my favorite in TCC is getting my baked rice for my very filling lunch. Love it how it actually layered with cheese and able to blend well with the rice which turns out not too mushy too, just simply delicious.

I absolutely love the fact that they have main course and service great coffee as well thats comes in a package where you don't need to waste time hoping to another coffee place after a heavy meal.

Asia Grand Restaurant ( City Hall )
Dim Sum always sounds good to eat in the daytime. I have weird cravings for this stuff every weekend.

Ever since the first visit, Asia grand has became my weekly dim sum place for my craving. I will never forget to order my favorite among all which is har gao. Chunks of fresh bursty prawns are mixed into a delicious paste that’s steamed inside a sticky glutinous rice dough where you can't get it from other restaurant! It is definitely a must try item when you pay a visit to this place!

A new afternoon tea place
Just OK 2012-03-20

Paul Bakery ( Orchard )
This new cafe that use to be coffeclub made into a quaint shop that serves coffee and French pastries is my new favorite hangout. Paul Bakery basically is a French style bakery that has pastries, soup, and sandwiches too.

The croissants are flaky, the coffee hot and fresh, and the service is wonderful. We also ordered a meringue pie which very satisfying.

It is a very great potential place that will bring up the french afternoon tea trend up to all of the foodie lover. Biggest problem dining here will be the long queue and crowds. It has a take away counter that it's a great place to pick up freshly baked treats on your way home.
