Harry's Bar Smile Apr 22, 2015   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Multi-Cuisine | Restaurant | Steaks and Grills | Burgers and Sandwiches

I had the pleasure of joining OpenSnap's tasting session at the launch of Harry's Bar's breakfast menu at Boat Quay, and this made me envy those working in the vicinity! I believe a hearty breakfast is always a great start to confronting the day's challenges ahead — and Harry's new menu offerings certainly provide a great way to kickstart the day!
Having a caffe latte while dining alfresco may not be very advisable in the midday heat, but it works just fine in the morning! I absolutely loved the deep, bitter essence and the frothy foam on top. It was also a visual treat to observe the gradual blending of the layers of foam and coffee!

Caffe Latte

You can't go wrong with ham and cheese. A combination of these in your croissant is food heaven — the flaky and melt-in-your-mouth tender crust made me wonder if this had come right out of a Paris kitchen. There was a strong milky, buttery fragrance as well. If Harry's Bar were located near my office, I think I'd eat this for breakfast every day...

 
Croissant Croque Monsieur

Crumbly, moist, fresh and savoury. These muffins are presented in a stylish baking cup — they make for a very presentable snack for your colleagues! Oh yes, they are baked fresh DAILY! I know many places have their muffins delivered from a central kitchen, and keep them on sale for days! None of these stale muffins at Harry's!

 
Assorted Muffins

 
Assorted muffins — Cranberry

 
One of the greatest challenges with pot pies is keeping them from turning soggy. We spent about 15 minutes snapping away with our cameras, and yet the pies remained crusty and flaky. Whether you go for the Creamy Chicken and Vegetables or Mushroom and Potatoes Veloute with Vegetables, you are assured of a smooth, flaky and rich-tasting experience!

 
Pot Pie

My heart sank when I first saw this — the sourdough sticks looked like a heart broken into two. At first sight, the eggs looked pretty unflattering, along with unevenly distributed ingredients. Surprisingly though, the consistency of the eggs was pretty brilliant! With a firm yet jelly-like texture, this is perhaps one of the best sunny side-ups I've had — the yolks in particular were gooey yet held their shape well when my knife went through them.

 
Ham, Bacon and Mushroom Fry Up

I would skip the Soft boiled eggs & Marmite soldiers though — the chunks of bread were a tad too salty, and the eggs seemed overly-adapted to the Singapore style of half-boiled eggs in a pot. But if you'd like to try a variation of Ya-Kun's famed breakfast eggs and toast, you might perhaps wish to give this a try!

 
We rounded off the session with refreshing pineapple juice. I had a bit of time to look across the river and ponder the transformation of Singapore— especially since Harry's Bar is located directly across from where our founding Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew (aka Harry) recently lay in state inside Parliament House. Thank you to both Harrys for adding such vibrancy to Singapore!

Full Review at: http://www.littletinysun.com/2015/02/first-michelin-starred-ramen-chef-in.html

It was my first time meeting a Michelin-starred ramen chef! Yasuji Morizumi is the world's FIRST ramen chef to attain a Michelin star. The genius behind Chabuton Singapore, he was in town recently to launch an exclusive ramen dish. Here's a review of a bowl of Michelin-starred ramen as well as some side dishes.

The ingredients — pork, garlic chives and cabbage — tasted really fresh. We were advised to dip the dumplings into the soya sauce though I preferred eating them au naturel. They came in pretty uneven shapes, though the general appearance roughly resembled that of small purses. My biggest gripe would be that they were pan-fried quite unevenly (as you can see, some areas were significantly browner than others), making some dumplings crispier than others.
Each bite lacked a satisfying volume. In a blind taste test, I would think I was eating murtabak

Additionally, the fillings, while fresh, seemed quite meagre in quantity, resulting in some rather flat-looking dumplings. Each bite lacked a satisfying volume. In a blind taste test, I would probably think I was eating thin slices of murtabak!

Ika Karaage (Fried Squid) — S$5.00

I'm not a fan of squid at all, but this was REALLY great. Crispy on the outside yet squishy inside, the stark contrast of textures was a wonderful experience. What I loved best about this dish is that there was NO SMELL OF SQUID at all! I was also pleasantly surprised at the lack of oily residue on the plate despite it being super crispy.
I guess the only possible improvement to this dish I could wish for is a bigger portion, haha!

The Kurobuta features a blend of Tonkotsu & Chicken Collagen Broth, and there was a pretty obvious and pungent ginger aroma from my bowl. Diners from other tables gave feedback that Singaporeans don't really like ginger and would prefer garlic, but I thought the ginger was quite shiok. Hmm... for this dish, do you wish to hear the good news or bad news first?

I absolutely love this highly-prized Kurobuta. The well-marbled meat contains fine streaks of fat that make each slice richly sweet, tender and succulent.
The meat literally melts in your mouth — if pork ice-cream existed, this would definitely cut it! -

Most Japanese restaurants serve HALVED eggs, Chabuton throw in an entire egg here. It's really difficult to cook a whole egg — the freshness, temperature and timing all come into play when creating that perfect molten yolk, gooey egg white and firm casing!

Men Don Tei.. in a corner. Cry Dec 31, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Japanese

Was pretty excited to try men don tei because the interior layout made me felt like i was really in japan. however, there were really noisy kids around and i didn't enjoy the experience.

 
surprised that there was no miso soup. 

 
the chicken wasn't fresh at all and tasted really stale. we ordered a katsu don and a curry chicken don. both were pretty disappointing because the meat wasn't fresh.. the curry don wasn't hot enough, and the portion was so small that its almost kid's size! 

 

 
also, it's self-service (you have to collect your own meal) and they shout really loudly. pretty rude cashier as well, you can feel the negative vibe.

Categories : Salads/ Acai Bowl

Anyone who have tried toss & turn would say that it provides quality salads. although the portion is uneven at times, the vegetables and food are really fresh.

 
ordered a set meal, and the mushroom soup was really hearty.. loved the crispy bread to dip in as well.

 
highly customizable, you get to choose a wide range of greens, eggs, and protein such as fish or chicken. i chose the salmon and was pretty disappointed that it was only thin slices of salmon.

 
lots of various vegetables are available all-day!

 
on the other hand, they were really generous with their nuts!

 

 
Order from the counter and choose your seat, though its more preferable you takeaway because theres hardly any place to sit at all times.
