Ryoshi Sushi Ikeikemaru is hidden on the top floor of Westgate and I chanced upon it one day when I was looking for a place to have a nice lunch. A search on Google reveals that the flagship outlet at the basement of Liang Court has received many good reviews for their affordable yet fresh […]

Singaporeans love buffets. There are countless intercontinental buffets, Korean BBQ buffets, Chinese steamboat buffets, Thai mookata buffets (which I have not had the chance to try yet) and Japanese hotpot buffet on this tiny island.

Salted Caramel Artisan Ice-Cream
My first visit to Salted Caramel Artisan Ice Cream was back in April 2015 after a scrumptious feast at Badoque. This unpretentious ice-cream palour has left a deep impression on me so I am back. There is a good mix of classic flavours such as Vanilla and Cookies & Creme and exotic flavours such as […]

I am not exactly a fan of bak kut teh although I have had my fair share because I find it too meaty and oily for my liking. I still have trouble getting used to the soap where pepper is about the only thing I can taste. My colleague was going on and on about […]

Hotpot Culture
I have passed by Hotpot Culture a couple of times before but this steamboat restaurant has never quite caught my attention until the rat infestation incident.

I opted for beef platter with fish soup. […]
