My first visit to Jalan Kayu. You can call me a mountain tortoise or whatever... Keke...=P Bf brought me to this Prata shop. I had Teh Halia (Ginger Milk Tea) while bf ordered the popular Teh Tarik (Milk Tea).The drinks were great for a cold weather. Bring warmth to your tummy! =)To me Prata is either Egg or Plain. Didn't know there are so many variety/term until we ordered theselaster + Telok + Kosong.Plaster = Plain Prata with Sunny Side Up on it.Telok = Egg Prata.Kosong = Plain Prata. Personally I don't find the prate here special...Not exactly crispy or fragrance. Doubt I will travel all the way here to have prata again.. =/ …

It was our first visit to The Handburger Restaurant. The menu were promptly presented to us upon seated. We looked through the menu... We both find that the burgers are affordably price.The cheapest burger cost $7.80 while the most expensive one cost $11.80. I was really tempted to order their signature burger, The Works. The onion rings, bacons with eggs looks Yumssss!!! But too bad they had cheese so it was a Nope Nope for me! =(The plate was really cool! It was custom-made for the restaurant. The bigger circle is for burger while the smaller circle is for side dishes. The plate also has a section specially for the cultery. Innovative & thoughtful creation!Dar order the Handburger Original. ($7.80)It consist of ribeye beef patty with bbq sauce, cheese, lettuce and tomato on a toasted caramelised onion bun. He commented that the burger is indeed value for money especially when the patty is thick and yummy! I ordered the Pulled Pork Burger. ($6.80)Pork Strips with BBQ sauce topped with crunchy mayoless slaw, lettuce & tomato on a toasted rustic bun.It taste decent. Not really my liking as I find that the sauce were a little too sweet.Top up $4 for the primary side dish. Onion Ring.It comes with a garlic sauce which was really good! Well, overall we paid like $21+ for a meal and I guess we will be back again for more value money burgers! =) …

I have never been to an authentic Japanese Restaurant before except for those Casual Japanese Restaurant such as Ichi Ban, Sakae Sushi, Watami, Waraku and etc.As I first step into Irodori, the first impression i had was their authentic deco + prompt service. Upon seated, we were immediately served with a cup of hot green tea each. Followed by the appetizer, broad beans & green beans. We were impressed with the appetizer served, Green Tea cold Tofu. *thumb up*We both agree that this dish is surprisingly great! The tempura crumbs + ebi roes add on additional crisp to it! We ordered the mixed sashimi to starts off the dinner! The Salmon Sashimi were thickly cut and very fresh! We ordered the mixed sashimi to starts off the dinner! The Salmon Sashimi were thickly cut and very fresh!The waitress recommend their Special Irodori Maki to us!We couldn't stop raving about this dish and had to order 2nd serving! hehe!Their in-house special maki is made with generously serving of lobster salad + ebi roe + mayo! Definately a MUST ORDER dish! Oh.. we were served with Complimentary Grilled Prawn.1 serving for each customer. The taste is really great!!! But too bad the prawn was a little overcooked... =/Ordered the Yasai Salad. Hmm... i prefer salad with generous dressing. *fattening*And for their salad... I find that the dressing were too little for my liking. The Dobin Mushi is refreshing and another must order. Love the soup flavor from the mushrooms, and the sour tinge from the citrus lime that is added! I spotted most of the customer had repeatedly order this! Last dish to end the dinner. Buta Enoki Maki = Pork roll with Golden Mushroom!Ordered this dish before in beef version at Sakae Sushi before. We both love this dish and I reckon that Irodori will make better ones! And yes, their Buta Enoki Maki taste 200% better! haha!!! It's slightly charred on the outside and once you bite onto it, the golden mushroom juice will burst into your mouth. Yums!!! …

I have heard lots of raves about One Rochester romantic ambiance and great food. And Yes! Finally I had the chance to be there! Their service staffs are really good! Upon seated, they get a extra seat to place my bag and showed me their drinks menu! I ordered the Rose & Cucumber Martini because of this "special" ingredients that I love! >>>> Rose!!! The alcohol level is kinda high or perhaps I shall rephrase... I am a lousy drinker. =/ We begin the meal with... Bread Basket. The bread came warm with french butter and olive oil with balsamic vinegar.Next serve the Starters.... The 'Nibble' Platter.Herb crumbed stuffed olives, potato skins with sour cream and ocean trout caviar, radish, tapenade and crudite, foir gras parafait, game terrine, cured hams and pickles.I only tried the mini potato in this platter and I don't really like it... The sour cream is too strong for my liking.. :/Another starter served was the...'Tastes of the East'Spicy Thai chicken and prawn dip with rice crackers, szechuan salt and pepper soft shell crab, chicken and rabbit skewers, crispy pork crackles, otah on toastI love this platter! Especially the Crispy Pork Cracker, the Otah & the Spicy Dip!The Crispy Pork is crusty at the outer layer while the fats melt in my mouth... Yums!!! =DThere comes the salad.Tiger Prawn salad with cous cous, promegranate, mint and Persian fetaI must really say that this is one of the BEST salad that I have ever eaten! The combination of promegrante with the salad, make it a really crunchy-juicy affair!Definately won the best dish of the night too!!!! I wish I can have the salad right infront of me now while I am doing this review.... We had 4 main courses to be shared.Braised Angus short rib with creamy Paris mash Potato and buttered baby carrotsThis dish takes more than 24 hours to prepare... (so long!!!)Most of the diners were raving this dish.I had a little bite on the meat. Mmm.. personally, I don't like beef and I guess that's explain why I don't enjoy this dish. But I am sure this is a MUST ORDER item for beef lover! =)Baby chicken with pine nut, raisin and truffle stuffing, and cranberry and quince relishThough the chicken was really tender & juicy, it doesn't leave a deep impression to me.Perhaps is just me? I doubt I will pay so much to eat a normal tender chicken when I patronise One Rochester again.Grilled cod fillet with fennel and blood orange salad Among all the 4 main courses, I would choose the cod fillet as my favourite! It's so tender and juicy,it can literally melt in my mouth. Simple dish but surprisingly AWESOME!Shellfish risotto with seared langoustine and avruga caviar By the time, you are reading the review of this dish. I believe you would more or less knows that I am more of an asian food person. I hate cheese, cream, beef, lamb, pizza etc. *picky* I have never tried risotto before and this was my first time tasting it. Hmmm.. it doesn't really suit my taste palette. Too creamy & cheesy... Definately recommended for someone who is looking for a main course that can filled the stomach.Despite such a heavy meal, I was eargerly looking forward to the dessert of the night! First dessert served was the......Fine apple and franipane tart with calvados ice cream One Rochester's signature dessert! It comes along with a scoop of alcohol flavoured ice cream. Hot Apple Tart + Cold Alcohol Flavour Ice Cream = Sinfully AWESOMEGrande AssietteThe dessert platter with five petite desserts for sharing. Love their version of Lemon and Lime Soufflé . Their Souffle were heavenly good. It was not too creamy and it's refreshing! I am definately coming back for this!!!! Hehehe..…

This is not my first visit to this Ramen restaurant. I am returning again and again all because of 1 reason----------- >>>>>>> and that's the EGG & the Char Siew! Yums! The semi half boiled egg is mad SHIOK! The egg yolk is runny... uncooked! AND Yes! THE BEST EGG ever tasted in my life! WOW!! And as for the Char Siew, it can really melt in my mouth! But of course, there were a little fat contains in it. So maynot be for those health concious peeps! The soup is too salty as it's cooked with Chicken and not the usual Pork base. As for the ramen, it's still spingy! All in all, it's definately worth the price I am paying! …

Walked pass this eatery shop many times, but never tried their food before.Since Bestie has been raving about it and we decided to give it a try!They sells lots of FRIED food! *Sinful*7 flavours of Shaker Fries~!~!It's ONLY $2 for a packet!We ordered the Garlic Seafood Fries! It's a little too salty, but IMO is yummy!~!~ As for their best seller chicken cutlet, you can choose either bbq or honey. The chicken meat was not dry, it was juicy and taste very different from Shilin and Ximen! There are 4 different snack combos to choose from. The combo names is so interesting! Combo A 蔡依林, Combo B 小S, Combo C 林志玲. and so on....If you have no idea what to order, how about ordering whichever combo that is named after your favourite Taiwanese female celebrity? …

This is a nice place to chill and catch up with friends over gourmet coffee. One of my favourite drinks is the Azuki Coffee Cooler! They have a promotion now. We ordered 4 main courses, 1 side and were entitled to 2 coffee/tea for FREE. The Seafood Aglio Olio were kind of tasteless.... No complains for the Tropical Tamarind Chicken and the Jalapeno Salmon ... except that it is a little too small portion. Guess the only dish I like most would be Deep Blue Pack. It's actually a platter contain all kinds of fried foods. Verdict: DO NOT expect gourmet food from a coffee chain.…

A cosy and small Thai restaurant hidden in Circular Rd. The BEST SELLER here is the charcoal thai steamboat. You will see everybody ordering the steamboat! The steamboat is priced at $30 , $35 , $40. You get a platter of pork, prawns, scallop and vegetable. Instead of butter, they provide you with pork lard which you will spread it around the centre area (girlling portion).The chacoal grill and pork fat make the meat very fragrant and tender and the juices drio down to make the soup extremely tasty.Went back twice in a week! So what are you waiting for? …

Ranging from Sushi, Ramen, Pasta, Teppanyaki and etc. They has great value meal for lunch in each stalls. The Omelette is one of the hottest dish!!!! It's topped with teriyaki sauce, mayo and bonito flakes! They are pretty generous with their toppings! The Omu Rice Bento is super value for money! $7.80 for a set! Include Soup, Tomato Rice, Egg, Salad, Fried Fish with Fries. *** Do note that usually there will be super long queue for dinner. Especially over the weekends. …

Brought my partner to this Japanese Charcoal Grill Restaurants for his birthday.We both enjoy Japanese Charcoal Grill but it's really expensive in Singapore and till date we have only tried 2 places. Aburiya at Robertson Quay and another restaurant in Taipei. Instead of ordering set meal. We chose ala carte of what we wanted to eat. The mushrooms were fragrant and soft.The Pork Belly was really fresh and the seasoning enhance the flavour of the good cut of meat. Definately a good place to go if you are willing to pay that amount for the good cuts of the meat and if you love charocal grill! …

BOO!They are not attentive at all!No refill of ice water, just act blur and walk pass me!Though their service has deteriorate.. but we still love the omelette side dish!Have no idea what is this dish called. There is crispy fresh cabbage and strips of pork in it. Very yum yum!!! Both main courses were disappointing! Especially the curry sauce... Too watery. Doesn't taste like Jap curry at all! …
