Hungry Ghost
It has been two months since I came back from Myanmar and I have been missing the delicious food I had there. I especially miss Lucky Seven Tea Shop’s Samosa Salad and Tea Leaf Salad from Mya Shwe Maung Tea Shop. (Please visit Myanmar page to see all my blog posts on Myanmar.) Luckily for […]
Lucky Plaza may be known as “Little Philippines” to many Singaporeans, but there is much more than just Philippines shops and restaurants. There are Indonesian restaurants (Bebek Goreng Pak Ndut and Ayam Penyet Ria) and I recently discovered a Korean fried chicken restaurant. Otoke Chicken is located at the entrance of Asian Food Mall in […]
Lucky Plaza is my go-to place for cheap and delicious food in Orchard Road. Not only are there Filipino (Inasal) restaurants and shops, there are also a few Indonesian restaurants (Bebek Goreng Pak Ndut) worth checking out. Ayam Penyet Ria to the right of Bebek Goreng Pak Ndut on the first floor of Lucky Plaza. […]
When I first saw the name of the restaurant, I thought there’s some deep hidden meaning behind the name “GoroGoro”. The company website explains “the name actually are suggestions of a rumbling tummy when you are hungry, and the hot bubbling sound of the steamboat soups when they are boiling”. So much for deep meanings. GoroGoro Steamboat & […]
Lately, I have noticed more and more mookata stalls opening up in coffeeshops around the island. There is one such stall called Siam Square Mookata besides 山东东记拉面小笼包 in Fu Chan Food Paradise. It looked really good so my girlfriend and I decided to try it out. Siam Square Mookata is apparently quite popular and there […]
Rochor Original Beancurd is not famous. It is just a humble dessert shop in Selegie (I have only been to the Selegie outlet). There is nothing fancy about it. Rocher Original Beancurd reminds me of my teenage years which I spent in Selegie area. I wanted to introduce this classic dessert shop to everyone who […]
After I published my review on Islamic Restaurant on Facebook, a Facebook user commented that Islamic Restaurant is overrated. He suggested that I try out Singapore Zam Zam Restaurant and Bismillah Biryani Restaurant. So here I am at Singapore Zam Zam Restaurant, to see if their briyani is indeed better than Islamic Restaurant’s. Established in […]
My girlfriend has been recommending me a coffeeshop stall in Jurong East that sells cheap and tasty Chinese steamed dumplings. When I was in Jurong East a few days ago, I decided to check the stall out for myself. Shan Dong Dong Ji La Mian Xiao Long Bao is one of the stalls in Fu […]
I have been very interested in briyani lately. I have recently tried Allaudin’s Briyani Pte. Ltd which serves decent briyani at affordable price in Tekka Centre. My colleague suggested I try Islamic Restaurant, which turned out to be one of the oldest briyani restaurants in Singapore. Islamic Restaurant was established in 1921 by Mr. Abdul […]
There is a saying “one man’s meat is another man’s poison”. This type of food are usually the ones that have very pungent smell or taste. I can think of two foods that fall into this category, one is durian and the other is stinky tofu. Durian is known as the “king of fruits”, you […]
