My family frequents the AMK branch, especially when it's somebody's birthday. My usuals include the sambal steak, or the ribeye. This time I had the ribeye and it was great as usual. I was afraid they'd overdo the doneness (they couldn't get it right in the past), but this time it was all right.

Another usual order of mine is the escargot. I have to resist ordering 2 dozens because this is super sinful. It's full of butter and garlic and it's super duper good! Tip: lightly drizzle hot sauce over the escargot for that extra zest!

It's true that you can smell the good food all the way from outside. That's the reason why I stepped into Ah Guan in the first place.

I used to come here regularly, now it's just every once in a while. I have to say, they have the prettiest mee pok here. Look at those shells! Medium's a good size to order, but it never seems to be enough. Ask for extra chilli and vinegar!

Other dishes I love are their porridges. Served in a claypot, it's A LOT for a small price, you can even share it.

I come to Flamingg Mangos once in a while (it'd be more frequent if it wasn't so out of the way!) and I love how laid-back the place is. It's right smack in the middle of a cluster of private homes and there's all sorts of food on the menu, from pastas to steaks to bar bites and cocktails.

I love their Top Shells, which is served with loads of chilli padi (warning: this can get really spicy). It goes great with beer! They also make very good pasta, and my usual is the Aglio with Prawns. Good stuff!!

Dropped by for a friend's birthday celebration on a quiet Sunday afternoon. We arrived around 4 but most of the cakes were already sold out so be warned: come early to avoid disappointment!

We had six (extremely pretty) cakes in total, all were different except for one flavour that was repeated. Good thing actually - cos everyone at the table seemed to love that particular flavour the most!Kinabaru - coconut mousse with passionfruit centre

This was the flavour that we got 2 slices of. Everyone really enjoyed this one, it's fruity and very light. Well, actually, most of Kki's cakes are light! The crumbly base was excellent.Emily - champagne mousse with wild strawberry centre

This one was my favourite of the lot. I love alcohol-infused stuff and strawberry-anything so this just sealed the deal for me. This cake's more on the cold side so eat it fast.Fromage Melon (left) - cheese mousse with rock melon centre and Onigiri (right) - basil infused milk chocolate mousse with blood orange centre

The Fromage Melon was so-so, couldn't really taste the cheese. Definitely tasted more rock melon. As for the Onigiri, this took the award for "Most Creative Flavour" for us - who uses basil in cake? Only Kki! Super refreshing choice!Cafe Dumo - chocolate coffee mousse with praline centre

This is probably one of Kki's slightly heavier cakes. It may seem like an average coffee choco cake but once you stick your fork in you'd understand that it's not. The exterior is so delicate and a tad bitter and it adds this nice contrast to the thick, sweet praline centre. It takes a lot of skill to make something so heavy well-balanced like this.The milk tea - pretty light, more tea-ish than milky, a little too diluted for my liking but still satisfying.

I can see myself returning to Kki over and over again. They also make their cakes in different sizes so you know what to do the next time you're in need of a damn good birthday cake for special someone ;)

Came here after dinner for desserts and boy, was it HOT. That's what I notice about the area around The Pier at Robertson. Plus, Laurent Cafe's air conditioning wasn't working so we had to sit outside - doh!Anyway, we ordered the choc souffle ($18+). Yes, it's pretty expensive for dessert but I trust LB to produce good choc - and guess what? I had no regrets! The souffle turned out pretty good. It actually wasn't very sweet. It comes with raspberry sorbet and a side of low-fat (maybe even non-fat - not too sure) milk to pour into the souffle. What you get is a lovely chocolate mash - think choc lava cake only wetter. Takes a while to be ready, about 15-20 mins, but I think it's worth the wait.
