Full review: http://www.jacqsowhat.com/2014/12/oceans-of-seafood-pasarbella-singapore.html
I was impressed at the freshness of the seafood here. It allows me to experience Japan once again, at the famed Tsukiji Fish Market right here at Oceans of Seafood in PasarBella. They are currently a tuna feast promotion where 50% off usual prices. This is also where you get to enjoy top-notch quality seafood without the hefty price tags. I'm thankful to have the honoured to witness an exclusive live Bluefin Tuna cutting demonstration performed by Chef Mizu San. This live demonstration has indeed transport me back to the heart of the Tsukiji Fish Market in Tokyo.
The Chutoro Sashimi - Total shiokness and freshness. There weren't any fishy taste and it's so fresh that it sort of melts in your mouth on your first bite. Really good! Lastly for the tuna dishes, there's Negitoro Chirashi. The rice grain used were from Hokkaido, slightly more fragrant than the usual sushi rice. I wish they used Chutoro in the Chirashi instead of Negitoro. Also we had the Boston lobster. The meat within were so fresh and succulent, every bite full of satisfaction. Be sure to dip into the sauce given, especially the garlic butter sauce, my eye literally lit up after I took a bite of it.
It's worth value especially with the various promotions going on.

Great ambience, decent food Smile Dec 04, 2014

Full review, http://jacqsowhat.blogspot.sg/2014/12/kitchen-table-w-hotel-sentosa-cove.html

The kichen table at W hotel sentosa seems to focus on quality rather than quantity. I've to say the spread isn't much if you compare to The Line or Carousel. Came here for their dinner buffet for my company's corporate event. Desserts spread were of unique cheesecakes n crumbles rather than your usual chocolate mousse cake. The best was the seafood spread - lobster, oyster, snow crab leg, mussels, sashimi, tuna etc. They were fresh and sushi segment were of good quality with special treat of tea rice. Noodles were the usual, laksa, char siew noodle and fish maw soup, nothing over the world. Indian cuisine were of wide spread as well, from freshly fried papadum, grilled prawns, briyani etc. Pasta section - only 1 kind is available, Squid ink w crab meat pasta. Service were efficient too.
Overall, a decent dinner place great for chilling but I wouldn't be back though smile

wide range of food Smile Dec 01, 2014

Full review: http://jacqsowhat.blogspot.sg/2014/11/christmas-special-oyster-festival.html

Momiji is currently having a christmas special/ osyter festival promotion when we were there. We dine at the quiet branch at Revenue house, located at newton road. The oysters featured are prepared in 8 different ways. (only 5 kinds will be served during lunch buffet.) Such as Goma Oyster, Ponzu Oyster, Japanese Apple Dressing Oyster, Panko Fried Oyster, Miso Teppan Oyster, Lobster Mayo Yaki Oyster, OysterShabu Shabu and Hot Plate Oyster. The oyster promotion is happening now till the end of 2014. I personally like the goma, lobster mayo and mentaiko ones, really good.  Christmas items is available during this festive season such as Honey glazed turkey ham with mushroom sauce, Turkey ham tempura with nacho cheese, Baked salmon lasagna and Christmas log cake. 

I'm impressed by the wide range of raw dishes with many kinds such as tuna, salmon, swordfish etc. There's even temaki (hand roll), chuka hotate (seasoned scallop) and many sort of makimono. There's shabu shabu, teppanyaki, fried and cooked food. FREE FLOW Sapporo beer is available at Momiji during specific timing. For dinner, it will be from 630pm - 730pm daily. Momiji is the first place I ever know which features DIY waffle. It was simple with the instructions stated clearly at the side. And 6 different kinds of Haagen Dazs ice cream to pick from. Overall, a value for money buffet for a wide spread of seafood.

Korean food w a twist Smile Nov 16, 2014

Full review: http://jacqsowhat.blogspot.sg/2014/11/sync-korean-tapas-bar-12-maju-ave.html

 
The first outlet is home to winners such as Kimchi Cheese Fries, Korean Fried Chicken Wings and Army Stew at Westgate Mall, Sync Bistro. SYNC™ has put a new spin on these beloved dishes, turning them into lovely tapas. It is nestled in Maju Avenue and it offers a cosy environment. One of my fav pick among the tapas served was Dak-Kangjung ($9.90). Deep-fried sweet and spicy chicken bites with ricotta chilli tempura. Sounds simple, but the one at Sync tasted really good. As well as Sogogl Jowl ($10.90). This is our favourite among the rest, we were wowed by the smoking flavour of the char-grilled Angus beef jowl, sandwiched between a fresh sesame leaf and garlic confit to complete this slab of meat. One of Sync's recommendation.

 
We cap off our meals with SYNC's version of the traditional korean snack - Hotteok ($8.90). Sync's very own twist - Banana foster served with pan-fried chewy korean pancake and topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. This is a really good sweet and savoury dessert. The much-praised Matcha lava cake is also available here, along with a new version. Misugaru Lava Cake ($8.90), sync's top favourite. Misugaru also means korean's brown rice barley, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, strawberries & lime compote. Overall, nice place to chill, tapas great for pairing with craft beers & it's soju mojito!

Highlight: BEAST Burger Smile Nov 11, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : American | Bars/Lounges | Burgers and Sandwiches

The burpple tastmakers community gathered and feast at The Beast, a Southern Kitchen & Bourbon bar situated at Jalan Klapa. One of the bar bites, Freshly-baked cornbread ($6), serve with maple syrup. I was taken away by this homemade cornbread, it looks firm and dry but I was clearly deceived. We also had Bacon Mac & Cheese ($9). It was overall rather decent but it would be good if more cheese is added. That amount served didn't satisfy a Mac n' Cheese lover myself. Best pair with beer: Jack & The Beast Stalk ($12) - deep fried green beans with secret seasoning. It's tasty and addictive.

Moving on to the mains, one of them you can expect is Chicken & Waffles ($20). Buttermilk fried chicken served on top of crispy waffle drizzled with a bourbon maple butter sauce. Highly recommended. Introducing The Beast Burger ($125). The mother of all burgers: 1.6 pound of juicy beef patty, 1 pound of slow cooked pulled pork, 1 pound of southern buttermilk fried chicken and a good serving of slaw, lettuce and tomato. Wedged between a custom-made 9 inch bun, served with a bucket of fries. Take the beast challenge!

 
Desserts we had, Bourbon Pecan Pie ($12), Bacon Maple Glazed Donut ($5) and Peach Crumble ($12). We ended off with Bacon Maple Glazed Donut ($5). Do note that this is only available on the brunch menu. Quite a filling dessert I must say, with a mini whole donut. I like the combination of bacon and maple syrup, a balance of sweet and savour. A mouthful of super sweet goodness.
