Strangers Reunion Smile Oct 28, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Café | Desserts and Cakes | Brunch

Strangers' Reunion is one of the more popular cafes lately and my friends and I decided to head down to Outram to give it a try. It was pretty crowded on a Saturday morning so we had to wait a while before being seated. The decor of the cafe is pretty unique, having a more rustic feel. However, what I didn't really appreciate was the mixture of different furniture in the cafe. Like one table can be really big with huge arm chairs, and another can be really small with stools. There can be high tables situated around as well. It didn't really affect me until we were seated at a really small table for 4 people, and there was one huge arm chair, and three stools for the other 3 to squeeze at two sides of the table.

 
Food wise, all of us ordered their breakfast sets. We liked the Eggs on Toast set which gives you the option to choose the type of eggs and other additions to the set. We also had the Egg Net Tempura Soft Shell Crab and Egg and Bacon Ciabatta. I really can't say much about the food except it was just average and nothing to wow about. We were pretty disappointed about the standard, and was looking forward to having their waffles, which we heard Strangers' Reunion was really famous for. Unfortunately, at 1pm the waffles were already sold out. No further explanation was given for that so we left the place in search for other dessert options.

Whether I'll head all the way down again to try their famous waffles, I'm not so sure. Probably not in the near future.

Sushi Tei! Again! Smile Oct 28, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Japanese | Sushi/Sashimi | Kids-Friendly

Sushi Tei is one of my favourite places for Japanese food, simply because I love that they use higher quality ingredients in every dish.

 

 

 
I had a gathering with my friends the other night and I wasn't feeling very hungry, but was still craving sashimi. (I always crave sashimi) So I went ahead and ordered the sashimi salad, with Wafu sauce. Boy was that the yummiest plate of salad ever. They were so generous with the sashimi pieces that even after I was done with the vegetables, there were still leftover sashimi. The pieces of sashimi were cut into smaller cubes rather than the usual sizes, and had a good variety. Of course, the sashimi was fresh and very good. Do give the Wafu sauce a try as well if you prefer something lighter to go with your salad.

We tried the Mango & King Prawn Sushi Roll which is as good as the other fusion sushi rolls. I'm not really one to have mango other than dessert though so I'll probably prefer the others rather than this.

Han's at Chevrons! Smile Oct 28, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Italian | Kids-Friendly

I had meal at Han's with my parents at their outlet at the Chevrons! They serve a mix of different meals ranging from western to asian and sandwichs of sorts! I decided to go for a simple meal rather than getting one of their set meals so I ordered a beef cheeseburger with egg and cheese, a chocolate éclair and a cup of tea.

 
The beef cheeseburger with egg and cheese was extremely tasty. The beef was well cooked and marinated and had a distinctive beefy taste to it. The cheese melted and complimented the burger very well along with the egg. You can choose to add fries and a salad to the burger if you wish for a few dollars. The chocolate eclair was decent and a nice thing about it is that Han's tend to makes eclairs with a lot of cream! So if you love a simple meal with simple desserts, this is the place to go!

Brunch at Grub! Smile Oct 28, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Restaurant | Burgers and Sandwiches | Brunch

Grub is a quaint restaurant located in the middle of Bishan Park and surrounded by some beautiful scenery. It's usually busy and tough to get seats but today when we went for Brunch there was surprisingly vacancies. The dishes at Grub is actually very delicious and although there isn't a huge variety, the quality more than makes up for.

 

 
We ordered Mentaiko Fries and the big breakfast set to try! The mentaiko fries was simply heavenly with the Mentaiko sauce and seaweed complimenting the fries. The fries wasn't too salty and the mentaiko sauce was very generous in terms of portion. They even gave extra mentaiko sauce in case the amount of sauce on the fries wasn't enough! The breakfast set came with several dishes: Salad, Chicken Sausage, Scrambled egg and toast. The chicken sausage was very tender and juicy and absolutely delicious! The scrambled egg was tasty as well and wasn't too bland or salty and just nice. The set came with a cup of coffee which can be upgraded to a cup of gourmet coffee but I didn't take that deal. All in all, despite a higher price, the quality of Grub's food is worth the price paid.

Rise Buffet! Smile Oct 27, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Multi-Cuisine | Hotel | Buffet

Rise is one of the best buffets you can ever find in Singapore! Featured at Marina Bay Sands Hotel, it offers not only a very wide variety of dishes across multiple cuisines, the quality of their food is commendable and highly recommended by all who have eaten at Rise before.

 

 

 

 

 

 
The most important thing about buffets, especially when there's such a wide selection is to plan what you want to eat. For me I'll recommend skipping the salads first because compared to the other dishes available, there is simply no point wasting stomach space on salad! Don't attack the bread too early on as well as it can really fill you up fast and you might be full too fast.

Seafood is a must try! Their seafood is fresh and tasty especially when it comes to the oysters and mussels. Eat them with the sauces for extra zing! Although their sashimi isn't as good and fresh as the sashimi from other restaurants (e.g. Ikoi, Sushi Tei), you can still try some but do focus more on their seafood, trust me on this. Do attack the meats well, and consume as much as you can! The carvings and meat available are all well cooked and prepared, and delicious to a mind boggling standard! And of course do leave space for desserts! There's so much choices available, so do choose wisely when it comes to desserts as you will most likely not be able to taste all the desserts available.

Do keep in mind that Rise buffet can be rather pricey, but then again you pay for what you get, and what you get is unlimited tasty goodness so if you're willing to fork out the money, this is a good investment!
