Eve's Profile

I'm a fan of Swenson's when it comes to the large servings of hearty american grub but it's disappointing that their soup is a total mess. Clam chowder soup is not served as hot as I'll like it to be and the worst thing is that the bread is super hard. Not very happy. That said, I think I'm better off sticking to the ice cream and 1-for-1 lunch treats. No more soup for me at Swenson's. …Read More

had a salad and soup for lunch and it's really tasty. Extra love for the ceaser salad's cheesy crust which doubled up as a bowl for the greens. Smoked salmon is ok and the greens were fresh/crunchy. :) Whatever space that's left in my tummy was filled to the brim with a bowl of seafood goodness. i could taste the ocean. Anyway point it, Coffee Club's soup is wayyyy better than the lumpy mushroom soup I had at Swensen's the other day. urgh. BTW good news for Citibank card holders! 15% discount! :)…Read More

Chinese desserts will always come to mind whenever I'm at Bugis. I think there's a few shops selling Chinese desserts along Liang Seah Street. I would normally go for the one further down the street which has pictures of celebrities pasted on its glass window. But the bf wanted to go for Ah Chew so here we are. I had the mango sago with pomelo as usual. Thing is I was craving for something really cold but ah chew's mango dessert is not cold enough. And it is a tad too milky. Shall opt not to have the coconut milk next time.…Read More

I love this place! OMG it's not overly crowded on a public holiday and the ambiance was lovely like a japanese village. order the Hokke lunch set that cost about $11+. Totally worth it. The fish was excellently prepared and a squeeze of lime did the trick in making it extra appetising. Will definitely be back again to try out more unique authentic japanese offerings. :)…Read More

Feel like having noodles again so decided to try Crystal Jade's Black Pepper Chicken Udon dish. Not bad. The udon were al-dente. firm but not hard. Chicken was also ok. But somehow I just can't finish this dish although I was super hungry earlier on. Perhaps after awhile the sauce became a tad flat and heavy so my appetite turned for the worst. Guess I'm gonna try other dish next time. :(…Read More

The rice noodles were QQ and the beef slices were also QQ! Nope. No strong beefy smell/taste :) Broth was clear, light and garnished with suan cai (Chinese sauerkraut). But for guys, you may wish to order extra noodles. My pal who are a bowl of this goodness was hungry again after 2 hours. Perfect dish when it is raining. :)…Read More

Comfy place for lunch gathering but the food is just average. Had the Kung Bao chicken set meal that comes with a plate of side dishes comprising of some odd veg and 1/2 of a salted egg. I liked the soup though. it was those herbal type of soup. Anyway back to the chicken. Meat was in bite-size, so you don't choke yourself while babbling away over lunchtime with your colleagues. Sauce was just as you would have expected an average Kung Bao chicken dish to be. Not too spicy. Not must character. Perhaps that's where it went wrong.…Read More

Indeed, the Corn Ramen is the most unassuming dish in the wide variety of ramen available at Ajisen BUT corn lovers can never resist the sweet allure of corn. That said, Ajisen should consider adding more corn and work on the noodles. Find that the noodles are a tad hard and tasteless. Broth was ok but definitely can be improved. Not asking for too much since Ajisen brand itself as a ramen joint, it has better buck up lest fickle customers flock over to the many other japanese restaurants mushrooming around the island …Read More

Decided to get the minced pork and dumpling noodles instead of the oyster mee sua. Usually I will just get that dish or the chicken cutlet as those are the signature dishes. Anyway, I was delighted that the noodles went perfectly well with the generous serving of minced pork in savoury sauce. It wasn't too overwhelming. In fact, the dumpling soup paired the main dish very well indeed as refreshes my taste buds after every mouthful of noodles. :) Will be back for more.…Read More

Located neat the fountain of wealth, Hosoi seemed like a classy teppanyaki. Our chef was looking very professional with his tall hat. Anyway I got myself tge $28 seafood and meat combination set. Though the beef was ok in texture, honestly I couldn't really taste much of it because of the overwelming thick garlic/black pepper sauce the chef contaminated the beef with. How unappropriate. Maybe I should go Sakae Teppanyaki instead next time.…Read More

Tea time so it's time for cakes. If you are hanging around Dhoby Gaut, consider checking out this outlet right next to The Cathay. Just wanted to have a piece of cake and share a pot of tea with a girlfriend so we had the matcha sponge and azuki bean compote layer cake aka Midori. Soft texture and it's very light on the palate. Lovely for ladies who just want to munch on something in the afternoon after shopping therapy. Will come back to try the Maltesers Cheesecake next time.…Read More

What's unique about Nandos is definitely the way they cook their chicken that seems to be healthier as compared to KFC or even Popeyes and their special sauces. I'm a fan of the garlic peri-peri sauce and super hot peri-peri. Chicken is juicy and not overcooked. Oh for those of you who can't take spicy food, opt for the non-peri/hot chicken. If you are one of those peeps, well, you're missing out on alot coz the chicken would go really well with the HOT peri-peri sauce!!! For side dish, try the peri chips and corn cob. Absolutely lip-smacking. Bought a bottle of the peri-peri sauce so I can dip my nachos chips into it at home. YAY…Read More

I love the black pepper steak here! It had a thin layer of chewy fats that added a depth of flavour to the otherwise flat piece of meaty beef slab. Sauce is perfect. Tangy and heavy. Side veg were cooked to perfection. Not too soft and still retained a slight crunch. I love crunchy vegs. Anyway, this is one of my fav place for lunch though there's always a queue of hungry ppl, the efficient staff always manage to clear the crowd fast. Only problem is there are limited seats so always go with a friend so he/she can RSVP the seats while you grab the grub.…Read More

Always can't decide what to have when I'm at Pepper Lunch. They offer a good variety of teppan dishes. But I usually go with the beef steak as it comes with a good helping of beansprout - my all time fav veg. I love the idea of diy cooking where i can add in large amount of the honey brown sauce and garlic sauce on top of large quantities of peppee into my main course! It's awesome. I know. I should go easy on the condiments but I just can't helped it. It taste so good! (:…Read More

Personally i like my chicken tender and moist. That's exactly how this hawker stall serves their chicken. Drenched with fragrant sesame oil and accompanied by a large bowl of lotus peanut soup, I'm quite pleased with my plate of chicken rice. Unfortunately, the utensils were kinda oily and WET. OMG. seriously that's kinda gross. Hope they can up the cleanliness of the stall and utensils. …Read More
