This is a little known Japanese bakery with only one outlet in Singapore. Understand it has been operating from its present place at Millenia Walk for about 5 years now.

This is one bakery which I will go out of the way to get its bread and pastries. I've become a fan of it. All its pastries here are really good. I would attribute it to its bread, which is awesome. It's different from any other bakery where the bread is really fluffy AND tasty. From the very basic hotdog to my favourite bacon & egg bread and it's flagship curry buns, everything they dish out is seriously fresh and tasty. Their croissant is probably the best in Singapore IMO.

Really hope they open more outlets (especially in the West) so I don't have to travel just to get some bread. Highly recommended.

Whenever I crave for Xiao Long Baos, there are only two places I go to; first choice is Paradise and second is Din Tai Fung. Paradise takes the grand prize for serving the best xiao long bao in Singapore.

It doesn't just stops with the Xiao Long Baos. In fact, every dish I've tried here simply beats my expectations. I normally come here for dim sums and everything from the shumai, to the har gows, the lo mai gais, the pork baos, cha siu baos, etc, etc are one of the best in town. Tasty (not overly salty and "fresh"). Honestly, putting up this review already makes me think of going to Paradise for my next meal. My favourite amongst all the dim sums would be the shumais (generously packed with meat) and the xiao long baos of course, all 8 varieties of it!!!

Service here is also another thing worth commenting on. They are all very friendly and attentive, providing prompt service throughout. Presentation is also excellent with a big "fish tank" greeting you as you enter and the chefs highly visible, hard at work. You will also be enteretained to a tea master serving your choice of tea for you.

Pricing may be a bit on the high side, but given the quality of food and service (and ambiance), I am more than happy to pay every cent of it. I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for an enjoyable dim sum meal. Satisfaction is assured!

 

Collins has become my favourite "steakhouse". The food here is better than more established names such as Astons and Botak Jones. 

I always go for their sirloin steaks or lamb chops, which in my opinion is cooked to perfection, as good as you can get from 5-star steakhouses, at a fraction of their prices. 

I find myself ordering their lamb chops more often. Do take note, that this item sells out often, particularly on weekends. The lamb is well marinated and cooked (grilled) to perfection. Topped with pepper sauce and served with chips and coleslaw, servings are generous; always sufficient to fill me up (and I am a big eater).

Whenever I feel like having western food and feel lazy to dress up, I simply head over to Collins!

This is simply the best chicken rice you can find in Singapore.

What makes it so special? A winning combination of all factors central to making a good chicken rice:
i) meat
The chicken is most tender and well cooked (reference to the steam chicken). The special mixture of oyster sauce and sesame oil adds extra kick to the tastiness of the meat.  
ii) rice
Rice is also the most fragrant you can find in town. Soft, little sticky and smells (and taste) so good.
iii) chilli sauce
I don't normally take spicy food but whenever I'm at Tian Tian, I flood my chicken rice with the chilli sauce. Not overly spicy and just the right level of sweetness.

I always have my chicken rice with the baby "kai lan"; also another winner here. Steamed to perfection and garnished with perfect blend of oyster sauce (again).

This place takes my vote for the best Vietnamese restaurant in Singapore. It is prepetually crowded and best to go early i.e. before 6.30pm for dinner or expect to queue for at least 15 minutes.

Their phos are excellent; my favourite being their beef pho. The soup is deliciously tasty (not overly salty) and beef is nicely sliced and very tender. Servings are generous as well.

Do try the spring rolls and fried quail too. The spring rolls are exceptionally fresh and goes well with the vietnamese sweet sour sauce. The fried quail is well marinated in honey and very tasty.
