As you explore the precinct of Kampong Glam and North Bridge Road, you'd chanced upon this tiny whitish cafe situated along the main road - Hyde and Co. A unique name, a name of tea parties and childhood storybooks, we were amazed by the interior of this almost a 9 month old cafe.

TeaPersonally not a tea lover but they serve a variety of teas. Floral, fruity, hot or cold, they have a selection to choose from here.

Besides, their tea, they serve an extensive brunch menu too:

The Big Ben Poached eggs, mushrooms and a drizzle of hollandaise works for me anytime. Yes, i am talking about the egg benedict.

Speedy GonzalesProlly its name is derived by the speed that you can finish this plate. Easy to eat, roll it up and bite. Braised bbq pork with scrambled eggs and guacamole. The flavours don't complement each other though.

The full works The typical full breakfast. Average.

Waffles!! The waffles are different and not the norm. A take on Hyde's uniqueness. I must say I love the toasted marshmallows on the waffles.

Dallas Restaurant & Bar opens their second outlet at Suntec City. Away from the bustles of their first outlet at Boat Quay, Dallas Restaurant & Bar offers a myriad of bar bites, wines and beer while also serving good ole american meat.Housed in a glass house styled interior, this indoor cum al fresco space serves up a treat.

While you have your beers and alcohol, Dallas Restaurant & Bar offers finger food which are irresistibly good. the Snapper Fish Tacos ($8) and Pork Belly Tacos ($7) relives the hunger during Happy hour. If you're in for something heavier though, do try the meat platter here at Dallas. The platter goes at $70 for two or $130 for three. Given the size of the portion and how affordable it is, the number of pax must be strictly adhered too. overallreivew: full review @ http://shauneeie.blogspot.sg/2016/02/dallas-restaurant-bar-suntec-city.html

Chir Chir uses only fresh chickens in their outlets, which are married with different flavours and even whipped cream. Sauces are imported direct from the central Chir Chir kitchen in Seoul, giving us diners the exact same tastes as what you would taste in Korea.the drinks

Chir Cream Beer Inspired by 'a latte kiss' by a hit korean drama, this half or full pint of draught beer topped off with whipped cream is suitable for any occasion. To many, this would be the best of both worlds. For the best taste, stir the foam thoroughly with the beer, but beware of the foaming which comes with the stir.

Tok! Tok! Comes in different flavours like passion fruit, blue lemonade and green grape, these jug of cocktails gives diners a refreshing choice besides beers

now, the clucking array of food begins ....

the chickens

Crispy fried chickenTwo words - Crispy, tender. These chickens goes well with that mustard dipped and for a more tangy taste, the salsa sauce. One of the better fried chickens around.

Garlicky Chicken / Tenders / Wings (5Hands)My favourite dish of the night. The fragrant garlic sauce compliment the chickens really well. What made the dish even gorgeous was the chunks of roasted sweet potatoes and toppoki.

Spicy Chicken / Tenders / Wings The chilli sauce - SPICY! no joke, if you're no chilli person, it is hard to handle. A must try to those who love spice.

Nest SnowThe dish that won the most heart. Served on hot plate, cajun chiken tenders lying on a bed of sweet potato mash (the mash is awesome), surrounded by cream sauce and topped with parmesan, mozzarella, cheddar and fresh whipped cream. How not to like i ask you ? A very special and unqiue dish you won't find elsewhere.

Another cafe has opened its door in my hood in toa payoh - The Daily Press. This under the block cafe in the midst of the ageing estate, serves up a good variety of sandwiches with a twist. Coffee's from liberty coffee.

The CoffeeFound out that the beans used are from liberty coffee and I liked how the beans are mixed to give that very neutral, non acidic flavour. If you are lucky and imaginative, you can give catch a pokeball shot in the shop.

K.F.C (Korean 'Fried' Chicken) sandwich First impression counts and the the sandwich  was a real treat. The bread was a tad tough (due to its nature) but very flavorful. It complements that made from scratch korean fried chicken. Found out that the Daily Press makes their own kimchi, marinates the chicken in it and bakes the chicken with crumbs. All these work just that we can savour this dish on our table.

and so the trend continues with another japanese sushi bar popping up in the city. This time it is Koji Sushi bar @ China square. Serving up sushis, donburis for lunch and a omakasae menu for dinner. A quaint, modern setting, Koji can sit 22 pax while Chef Benny and his team work their magic in the middle. what did we have ?

Yuzu sodaCalpis sodaBoth he yuzu and the calpis were made fresh. Refreshing drinks which goes well with our hot climate. I preferred the calpis more.

Sashimi platter of 5 fishesThe sashimi platter works best for a couple because most come in pairs. Really fresh, as what you might expect for a good japanese restaurant

Sashimi donburiServed in normal white rice or brown nice, this sashimi don sums up what you can expect for a really good, satisfying and affordable japanese meal. Portions were reasonable for $17 and sashimi are cubed rather than minced. Every mouthful of rice comes with a piece of sashimi. catching chef Benny
