Having lived in Taiwan for several years, it's quite difficult for me to get satisfied by xiao long baos. The meat can't be too lean, too fatty; the juice too oily; or the skin too thick

I was surprised that there standard for xiao long baos are still there. The skin is thin and even and doesn't break apart that easily.

Small dishes are weighed on a small weighing scales but packed so it looks like they are very generous.

The restaurant may be packed but their service is good with their continuous pouring of tea. The waiters and waitresses are also considerate by giving you a small basket to put your bags and a cloth to cover it.

For the price you pay & the quality that you get, it's quite worth it.
No visit to Din Tai Feng is worth it without an order of xiao long baos.

Lychee Martini & Soursop Smile Apr 11, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Café | Ice Cream and Gelato

If you're there on a Sunday afternoon, don't be disheartened if Pluck isn't opened exactly at the time that the opening hours is stated.
Not sure if it's a common thing or if it just happened on that weekend, but Pluck wasn't open till mid-afternoon.

Seats do fill up quickly though and luckily the lady who was serving was quite patient in our inability to make choices. Finally opted for the Lychee Martini & Soursop. I really like fruity flavors so I was glad when the ice cream did not taste overly sweet. The ice cream did not melt super quickly and the seating area is small but rather quaint.

Definitely was refreshing on a hot day, however, be aware that not many stores were opened on Sunday at Arab Street.

Chili Sauce Smile Apr 09, 2013

Categories : Teochew | Coffeeshop | Porridge/Congee

I'm not usually a fan of Chili sauce or XO sauce but the order was a perfect compliment to the side dishes that we ordered or just eating plainly with the porridge. It wasn't overly spicy but flavorful without the overpowering feeling of ajinomoto (wei4 jin1).

 
If you have a sensitive stomach or are questioning the usage of tap water while eating, remember to drink a can of coke! It will help you with diarrhea. tongue

The fish was served cold but the meat was juicy and naturally sweet. You have to be careful of the bones but it's definitely worth the effort. The fish is also quite rich in its fish oils so it was really delicious.

Burritos and Tortillas Smile Apr 05, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Mexican

Came here for my mexican fix and I was quite pleased mad

The food is a little pricy. I think I about $9 for a chicken burrito.
Opted out of the guacamole since I can buy my own avocado and make it on my own, but I would like to see how much of a portion they'd provide.

Was quite full from the burrito and I chose sour cream and might have chosen the cilantro option too

The burrito comes with tortilla chips. There's a salsa bar within the restaurant where you can top up your salsa to dip your chips or even add it to your burrito. There are 4 different levels of spiciness. Honestly, I couldn't really tell the difference in some, but I'd say get a little and try each of the sauces out to figure out your preference.

 
Hope that they have enough business to remain in Singapore!

Lunch sets even on Saturday! Smile Apr 05, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Middle Eastern/Mediterranean

I love mediterranean food and am still looking for a place in Singapore that has it at an affordable and authentic.

Went to Pyramid on a Saturday afternoon and was surprised to hear that Lunch sets were applicable even on the weekends. The place also offers shisha for those that are interested.

If you don't like beans and lentils, you may not enjoy the food so much. But for me, it was really quite a good fix.

I was sad to hear that baba ghanoush wasn't available (egg-plant based dish), so I ordered hummus instead. Hummus is composed to chickpeas. It went very well with the bread that came along with the dish.

 
The main course came with a lentils soup that was served hot. Give it a try if you never had lentils before, it was rather pleasant.

 

 
Hisbiscus Juice that's supposed to help lower your blood pressure. I think those that are familiar with Chinese Tea may find this drink familiar. It wasn't very sweet so it definitely felt 'good for you'

 

This was the main course in the lunch set that were had chose mutton. It was a little too well done as I didn't really taste the juice of the meat

For a party of two, I was filled up by the carbs and beans in the meal to about late evening.
Wouldn't mind going back there again. tongue
Wish there were more choices for the lunch sets though!

Make sure you clarify your order with the server and ask what is and isn't included in the set menu so there isn't any miscommunication smile
