Browsing through the online menu, we realise that Domino's is really more Pizza Hut (in its heyday) than La Strada or Ricciotti, although they serve "thin crust pizzas". The crust is thin, but unlike Ricciotti's wood-fired thin crust pizzas, it's very crispy, like Pizza Hut's baked thin crust pizzas. We got the Value Meal 2 ($49.80 net), with 1 regular pizza, 1 large pizza, 4 chicken wings, 1 onion rings and a choice of breadstix, twisty bread or cinnastix.

We had:

1) Meatzza Thin Crust Pizza - with ground beef, turkey ham, smoked chicken breast, chicken sausage, cabanossi, beef pepperoni was strictly for meat-lovers. I like the chicken breast here, Domino's manages to make theirs tasty and moist

2) Classy Chic Thin Crust Pizza - with smoked chicken breast and chicken sausage. The olives, green peppers and onions cut through the meat of the pizza. I preferred this.

3) Breadstix- fluffy breadsticks coated with garlic seasoning and served with salsa, was surprisingly more sweet than savoury.We didn't expect this to be so hugely portioned, this alone would make for a full meal

4) Hot & Spicy Chicken Wings (4 pcs) - the American-styled hot sauce is really something us locals will need to get used to, with the use of fermented vinegar and cayenne pepper in addition to jalapeno peppers for heat, which explains the sour and sweet overtones in the not-very-spicy sauce.

This is a place you go to for run-of-the-mill, cheap and fairly good Thai and Indonesian cze char fare.

We had:

1) Tao Hoo Talay ($12.50) beancurd with seafood, which is also known as hotplate beancurd in cze char places. This was a very no-fuss, standard dish, with a garlicky eggy oyster sauce based gravy slathered over the silky beancurd and the requisite prawns, squid and fish slices.

2) Gai Phad Bai Krapow ($10.80) stir-fried chicken with basil leaves was also no-fuss, spicy and fragrant, with baby corn and long beans lending texture and fibre to the dish

3) Satay Madura ($9.80 for half dozen): skewered chicken from the Indonesian menu - tender and moist, with a chunky peanut sauce for dipping

4) Belinjau crackers ($3) were paired with a watery sour-ish but potent chilli sauce

They serve mostly carb-based, black pig-centric dishes here, with a decent selection of sushi and sashimi. Best to stick to the black pig carb dishes though, the fish-based dishes aren't particularly outstanding. The raw fish isn't bad, but repeat customers don't exactly head to Tampopo for the sushi, if you get what I mean.

Although many of their customers swear by Tampopo's ramen, I personally feel that their black pig tonkatsu cutlets are the best thing here. Tampopo's ramen fares okay but isn't super impressive, there are definitely better ramen stalls.

Tampopo specializes in 2 different types of ramen, the southern Kyushu and the northern Hokkaido versions.

We had:

1) Original Kyushu Ramen ($13.50): milky collagen-rich pork bone-based tonkotsu broth and thinner springier noodles, uses typical accompaniments such as tiny fish roe, soy braised egg, black fungus and soy braised sliced pork. The good thing about the broth was that it didn't leave a milky film on the tongue. The bad thing about the broth was that, like almost any other tonkotsu broth, it got cloying about halfway through

2) Deluxe Hakodate Ramen ($16.30): characterised by thicker, slightly softer noodles, and a less milky shoyu-infused seafood-based stock that's oiled up with a knob of butter, and this is usually chunked up by bamboo shoots, sweet corn kernels, seaweed, soy braised egg and pork. Somewhat lighter than the Kyushu tonkotsu broth, but also got cloying after a while with its overtly rich umami flavours

3) Stir-fried Mixed Vegetable & Black Pig ($8.80): loved this, soy was used sparingly, so this was refreshingly delicate and nuanced, with clean uncomplicated flavours and lots of crunch

Ice Cream Gallery, like most of the ten thousand other newly opened ice-cream shops, is catered to the local palate, with Asian flavours such as the D24 durian and gula melaka with red bean. Its location beside Hong Kong Street Chun Kee and lots of other famous eateries such as Punggol Nasi Lemak ensures a steady stream of post-dinner customers looking to satiate their sweet tooth.

We got 3 flavours to share between the 4 of us, and while the sea salt caramel and rum & raisin were nice enough, they were still pretty ordinary, with the soursop being just plain awful. It had a gooey, slimey, somewhat chewy consistency that was so uncharacteristic of a sorbet. We wanted something more similar to a shaved ice ball. Suffice to say, we didn't finish it.

Since E-Sarn's move from a hawker stall at Farrer Road to the little condominium enclave of Ridgewood back in 2010, it's successfully spawned 3 more outlets, all set up in similar locales - private housing residential estates. I'm surprised, because I didn't think the cuisine was authentically spicy enough for the restaurant to be this successful. I suppose the formula of watering down the spice level to cater to the expat tongue and situating itself in estates that are home to many expats works. It's not that I think the food is bad, because it isn't. The flavours are there, but the food's just not spicy enough.

In all fairness, the reasonably cheap price points and casual relaxed ambience are huge pluses. And service here is great, the all-Thai staff are genteel and polite to a fault, they're almost zen-like. And while the food isn't as spicy as I'd like, the above average food scores well with people that cannot take spice.

We had:

1) Tom Yum Koong ($7.50): despite the presence of chilli padis, this was really quite mild. There was depth of flavour though, even if there was no kick. The sweet and juicy cherry tomatoes were also a nice touch, as with the crunchy prawns.

2) Kra Pow Moo ($11.50): very lean pork was utilised so it was a little dry, but the chilli paste helped moisten it. This wasn't very spicy either, but the basil leaves lent a peppery aroma to the dish

3) Kai Foo ($8.50): The crispy egg omelette just seemed like it was mostly fried batter. I couldn't quite taste the egg in this. That said, it was crisp and not too oily

4) Panang Gai ($13.50): chicken stir-fried with coconut curry gravy - very creamy and rich, and not spicy at all. It also tended to the salty side, and the chicken tasted off
